I didn't believe it when i heard it initially...but wasn't particularly vocal about it bc i went from
"wow, that sucks" after reading/hearing the headline to "wait a minute, wtf" after hearing many of the details

i also knew i couldn't really trust every leak and story bc this is the CPD and the media and a powder keg of a clusterfuck

but the details, his interview, and other things definitely only casted more doubt

ideally...people would reserve publicly questioning and/or supporting without caution but that's clearly not the world we live in where kneejerk outrage, social media sleuths, blind support, hashtag #teamUs divisiveness, and rampant performative wokeness and virtue signalling is the norm...being "right" is more important than the truth

everyone just seems stuck in thinking it's "them" rather than "us" that can't seem to get shit right
