I would not consciously do that, no. But my point is that we all have our flaws, and we have all, at various times, been guilty of less than exemplary behavior. We've all made mistakes because of our own biases. Sometimes other people can recognize those biases even when we cannot. Furthermore, sometimes people have good intentions but might make errors in judgment when trying to accomplish something good.
In addition, Shin'Ar said s/he just posted the words and never claimed that the words were his/hers. (Is Shin'Ar male or female does anyone know?)
When I read the post, it seemed obvious that it was some channeled work, though I didn't recognize it. But I could tell it wasn't Shin'Ar's words.
Still, yes, it was misleading. No doubt about that. But at worst, it might be an error in judgment. Since when do we go around telling people they are STS, because of an error in judgment?
