@Pimpernell13 @15poundstogo @shipwreckedcrew in Ship's defense, I also spend a disproportionate amount of energy getting frustrated at "friendly" commentators who persist in connecting dots that dont connect. In my experience, nothing does more to disable serious critiques than rebuttable or incompetent analysis by "allies"
@Pimpernell13 @15poundstogo @shipwreckedcrew what happens is that defenders choose the weakest critique to respond to and then ignore the more serious, more pointed but less strident critique.
@Pimpernell13 @15poundstogo @shipwreckedcrew In trying to figure out events that are being actively concealed, one has to play more or less error-free ball. If you are a serious critic and make a mistake, it will be hung around your neck forever and your good points ignored.
@Pimpernell13 @15poundstogo @shipwreckedcrew the biggest problem with "newbies" to these murky corners is jumping to conclusions and failing to carefully distinguish between surmise or guess and what is known.
