What is ignorant about being apologetic when there is no evidence that this is astroturfing?

The point where you start jumping to conclusions based on how you feel about something instead of needing evidence is when you become paranoid.

I do not deny that astroturfing exists as I said in my other post. But I'm not going to start looking at numbers like your "70%" and even pretend that they mean anything.

I like skeptics and that they exist. They're the ones that look into the group (HONY) and decide if it is reasonable to look further. Making assumptions just because something mentions a product or country in a positive light is not skepticism. That's foolishness.
