So it's silly to pretend that some people are rational and/or do things for the same motivations as I do?
Yeah, unless I am a singularity among the human species, I find it quite unlikely that there is no one that things rationally and/or does things out of motivations which I share.
Or is that not what you meant?
See, I imagined that there was an implied "all" which would make your statement:
"Pretending (all) people are rational and/or do things for the same motivations as you is just silly, narrow and naive."
That made the meaning of your sentence quite clear to me, and it seemed quite logical.
However, as you tell me this isn't so, I don't know how to make heads or tails of it.

My only statement regarding cooperation was that people were cooperating for benevolent reasons as opposed to individually attempting to sow unrest.
Eos Wrote:The fact a few people are collaborating doesn't mean that everyone is being honest, the actions of one have no bearing on the actions, motivations, or intentions of "everyone".It is perfectly relevant as you and Beg have accused participants in this thread of fearmongering.
Just because a few people have a view point doesn't mean that's the only view point. Just because a few people have a theory doesn't mean it's the right theory. Presumption of innocence is irrelevant here.
Yes, there may be lies in this thread, but it is your charge to show evidence of deception instead of making vague accusations. That's where presumption of innocence comes in.
Few have presented any theory behind these hackings as absolute fact. Those that have have been rebuked, and the others have only reaffirmed that they are occurring while providing possible avenues through which they may be occurring.
Plenty have come forward as witnesses for the thread creator, so his claim of there being a hack has been supported.
Your claims, however, remain unfounded.

Oh look. Consistency. Imagine that.
The only consistency I see within is an air of superiority, and I would never deny that that was a quality in which you always remain consistent.
