But again and again, either an insult of association fits or it doesn't.
Either prove the accusation wrong or say openly they fucked up. Don't defend where we are simply because it's been that way long enough, and the rest of us need to put up with it, or follow YOUR path to fix it.

But once you do that, you now have to deal with NOT fixing it.
And that hurts you.
Sorry.
