"Cowardice asks the question...is it safe? Expediency asks the question...is it politic? Vanity asks the question...is it popular? But conscience asks the question...is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right." ~Dr. Martin Luther King

Sic a fankle canny be sorted

Last week, a comment was made to a  particular post. I responded to it
accordingly
Turned  out the comment was referring to  a different  circumstance.
It's hard to keep  an exchange  straight like that. I felt slighted.
Something similar happened  today.
A criticism  was made about  an inclination to "besmirch"  another.
I took it to  refer to one comment.
Then a comment was posted that took it to mean  another.
Comments  need to be  more precisely directed . So we're not talking at each other with cross purpose.
Otherwise I can  see the thread getting  into such a fankle  it can never be straightened out.

Someone is definitely trying to muddy the water. Same old; same old. Perhaps trying to over-load your computer since it is rumoured to be vulnerable. Take care out there.

Good to see you back. Take care of your health & let the squabbling sort itself out. Mostly sound & fury...
