As I said, we now analyse everything and we have journalists and 'influencers' who think it is now their job - even their right - to give us our opinions and cast those who dare to speak out against them into the abyss of shame and ridicule.....

Don't worry, Aysedasi - I understood where you were coming from.
I think there's room for stances like your own and also the stance of challenging the opinions. But I'd rather there was less room for stuff like what Marko said. I've also had too much caffeine, what with it being an office day and having bottomless coffee available from a machine.
