Off topic, but is there a name for peoples behavior where they barge into a topic and bring 90% of what they want to see, loudly? This poster just wished away facts and truths for his own perception (wishes?).

I see this all the time in forum discussions and its exhausting. People are so fast to either blame big corp (cancel!) or totally blame the user (idiot!). Its so hard to get any nuanced thoughts going when so many voices immediately loudly pick sides.

I believe the proper name is "having one's bullshit called".

And yes, when a pair of headphones self-ignites and causes bodily harm, we better immediately and loudly take the side of the person that suffered injuries, and demand the manufacturer to be held accountable. I have provided plenty of nuance elsewhere in the thread as to why we should do that; you're welcome to look there.

Yeah; I agree with you and am responding to the other poster who was ignoring the reality of OP to blame the victim.
