    Exactly. That’s why I labelled it specifically as a suspicion and made a clear note it’s not enough to say there was any wrongdoing. It’s purely based on the “slight evidence” of his statement. We’ll have to wait and see where this leads to but I’m commenting on the information we have now. Based on the information we have now, in my opinion, the response was suspicious. The suspicion comes from the lack of denial.

      You’re getting downvoted and while Internet points are silly I personally don’t think you’re acting inflammatory or maliciously. I think we agree on mostly everything here. I find it frustrating when people use downvotes to mean “I disagree with you.”

        It is frustrating but not unexpected. If someone wants to engage with me on an intellectual level then all respect even if we disagree. Some people aren’t capable of that and it shows. I didn’t think it was an inflammatory opinion and I’m still happy for someone to disagree with me and explain why. Maybe I’ll change my mind, maybe I won’t. I’m up for the discussion but some people just want to pick fights on the internet. Thanks for your response.
