Sometimes people are just incorrect and no ill intent.

I just don't get why I see so many of people on this very site (surprisingly usually Apple or Tesla fans) that so confidently spread misinformation about things they don't have knowledge of and didn't even attempt to check.

Where does this wish to spread baseless misinformation come from?

How come the first thing you assume is ill intent?

How come you are so certain what the person was trying to say without asking a clarification question first?

Sometimes people are just wrong. There doesn’t have to be an ill intent behind it. Educate and move on. What else can you do?

[izacus]

Which is exactly what I did. And it made people here angry.

You made an assumption of intent.

You could have just pointed out the Samsung product.

Where?

"confidently" doesn't assume intent. "misinformation" doesn't assume intent.
