How the tf would them being verified make them "on the platform" as opposed to them literally being on the platform but not verified. Total cope comment from someone who tried to back rationalise their initial reaction.
Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit. What about my statement means that them being there before was okay? I assume most people upset about it didn't have a fucking clue they were there before. Not that it matters since it's clear from your tone you're a troll.
The original post explicitly calls them out specifically for being verified, not being on the platform. Then you walk in, dick swinging, saying "ummm ackchully it's about them being on the platform not being verified. And you're illiterate for being able to read and thinking otherwise 😏" yeah okay buddy keep coping
If you actually read the thread like I did you might get it. But yeah I'm weirdly macho and also wrong or something

realisation that their own argument wasn't consistent with what they previously commented moment
Realization that toxic douchebags who don't see but one perspective aren't worth arguing with moment.
Keeps coming back like a abused puppy anyways
