Attacking the messenger doesn’t make the message incorrect.
- luckylion 7y agoSorry, I don't mean to attack anyone, I'm just wondering what's going on with Forbes.
- rasengan 7y agoNo need to apologize! Just pointing out that we do need an alternative web! Your questions are also excellent and pertinent, and it’s always good to analyze everything in detail to understand purpose and intent.
- goodmachine 7y agoTo be fair he was attacking a) Forbes, and b) the messenger's curious credentials: not the messenger directly. The message itself is naive at best, so I wondered the same things.
- tasubotadas 7y agoYeah, but if the content of the message is not verified, then the credibility of the messenger becomes a strong proxy indicator until it is verified.
