So like, if someone “connected dots” on me, they’d have to show a documented chain of behavior pointing to the same conclusion. That’s the difference between discernment and delusion. You can’t invent smoke and then claim there’s fire. But if there’s been like smoke, sparks, and burn marks for years, then yeah, you probably shouldn’t stand near the matches.

I don’t call that unfair. I call that paying attention, Phrozen.

Then how would you explain folks being wrongly convicted and thrown in prison? Most of the wrongly accused got convicted based on your dot connecting way.
