... without all the facts, or posting out of context? Not all that unusual around here. Jussie Smollett. 🤔 Surprising also is just how many jump on those bandwagons. Less surprising is how many decide to distance themselves from the bandwagon they just jumped on once context, and or facts are known.

The OP probably would have garnered a larger bandwagon had he taken what he believes was the most egregious person, and concentrated his firepower onto one target rather than multiple targets with a shotgun. That scenario has proven to be the most effective. I think it's all egotistical, juvenile horseshit, but hey, what do I know?
