In reply to the discussion: Remember when Jussie Smollett reported being attacked in a horrific anti-gay, anti-black hate crime [View all]jberryhill
(62,444 posts)I can't recall mentioning much about anything I've done other than once referring to a run-in with the Trump Organization when someone accused me of being a troll.
It simply struck me as odd that a request for "proof" was met by a non-specific statement about "evidence", since just about anything is "evidence". The implication was not that anyone was a "rookie". Far from it.
I really haven't followed this particular story, and am curious to know what it's about, other than some vague awareness that people dispute Smollet's claim. But why that matters, I don't know.
I further assumed from the thread that there had been some new development proving or disproving something or other. But I gather this is one of those rhetorical exercises bearing no tangible relation to the story being used as a vehicle to cast aspersions on the motives of others at DU.
