    Regarding the social faux pas, the tone of your comment could be taken as condescending. The formal phrasing and use of quotation marks.

    That, combined with the fact that you were apparently wrong according to the video (I don’t know, I’m not watching it either), seems to have turned the crowd against you.

      Thanks for trying to explain but I’m still confused tbh. I wasn’t making claims of what did or didn’t happen, I was making claims of what the article said. Which was true. So I don’t know how I can be said to be wrong. But I recognize this is probably a me thing, given the downvotes.

        It’s not unreasonable for someone to assume you are making claims about what happened via citing the article.
