humans can be influenced by the loudest voice in the room sometimes

Says you. Myself, I take personal responsibility for whom I allow myself to be influenced by, and don’t feel duty bound to protect anyone else in that regard. I actually find it mostly arrogant, this sanctimonious grandstanding over what someone else has to say. And, this condescending presumption that anyone else needs protecting from it. Who appointed any of you in charge of that?

As for the lady in question, I don’t hear her voice at all any more. I blocked her months ago.

As for whoever else she manages to influence, that is none of my concern.

But I’m sure she appreciates all the free publicity and encouragement you lot are showering on her, as in, you’re playing right into the hands of someone who thrives on outrage and notoriety, and you don’t even see it.
