Threads aren't the personal property of the person who started it. Never have been, never will be. You took a shot at starting a conversation, and if it's a reasonable premise, people will generally stick to the topic and it will flow. But this was a flawed premise and you're now going to waste a lot of time defending that original position.

For what it's worth. Dismissing the remarks of people who think you're a bit nuts is your prerogative.
