See, I don't see anything wrong with this when it comes to speculation & sharing those ideas & thoughts.
What gets annoying is when speculation gets passed on as fact, and you can't find the original source that led to that speculation to assess it for yourself.
I blame social media for a lot of this because it forces people to generalize, cut source info and cut out important signal words like "supposedly" or "allegedly" or even "I think" in favor of maximizing visibility & fitting a whole complex story into 100 characters. You will never be able to get the facts & nuances of truth out properly with those limitations.
Reporters & analysts need to go back to writing detailed reports & articles/essays, and The People need to go back to taking the time to actually fucken read them.
