Oh no I was using a person as a metaphor. Just replace person with community.
Okay, then the proper criticism is that you’re a liar, typical of MLs. 🤷♂️

Just saying that if there is evidence of such, why wouldn’t it be okay to point it out?
I also notice you seem to have trouble understanding what I’m typing from time to time. Just calm down and reread the conversation.
