Good on you, man. I'm sad to see no one else thanking you for speaking up with the voice of reason. Probably you're just too late to the punch.

I like to think most reasonably minded readers here don't share the infinitely cynical, evidentially empty, doom-pilled perspective that u/textembedding is conveying. Astroturfing is very real, but to declare everything is astroturf regardless of literally documented legal history is just to give astroturfers free license to take over the internet unhindered.
