Anonymity and the Dark Side of the Internet
The only answer I can provide is the world is full of slander and self serving opinion. Treat words as evidence of the speakers mind and know that it is not your own.Each of us builds an image of the world. We know that it not the world but testing the model against events tells us how to bring the image closer to the facts around us.This kind of recursive construct is not easy. It provides no assurance of truth. It does not deceive.
