I will not ask my fellow lemmy community members to blindly trust me on this.
This is the primary thing you are asking people to do. Literally everything else you said hinges on people blindly trusting you.
I understand wanting to protect your sources. But you’re taking it to the other extreme by providing literally nothing except unprovable claims. Give us something, anything, even an easily faked email or pm. Just anything that requires even the slightest bit of effort beyond just typing up straight lies.
Even assuming they’re mostly spam, you still need to listen to them in order to sort out which messages are legitimate.
I understand being annoyed by the task, but this is a job that’s justifiable. It’s not some petty make work bullshit (unless these messages have been collecting for months, then they can probably be safely ignored). Either way, it doesn’t seem worthwhile to try and get all petty revenge about the situation.
