I understand what your saying, but the thing is Lee, if Steve is building a good enough product that the end result speaks for itself (which it surely does, hammer bullets have some great benefits for many uses) and has grown to the point where it is at, the attempts at undermine and sabotage obviously haven't worked, and aren't going to work, his business is well above that. His business does not need your defense. His business doesn't need anyone's defense brother, it's kickin butt right now! And when his business has risen above the need for continual defense and reassurance, at this point it is beginning to appear as petty, and overdefensive, the act is seemingly Karen-like in itself. It doesn't take a man with balls that clank to kick a chihuahua. I'm not saying that to insult, but trying to put it into perspective. At this point, Steve can stand proud of what he has built, and is essentially bulletproof from any comments from random people on forums.
At the end of the day, we all have different opinions. But when things get heated, I look at people like JE Custom was, and other people of high moral character in my personal life for how to condone myself. It is not that I am a Karen that cares what other's think of me, but in a sense I do care about what my actions show of myself. It's a small, but significant difference, not to be confused. I never once saw JE Custom, or those other people in my life that I reference, act in passive aggressive manners, or do things of that nature, even if they could have found a way to justify it. They did the right thing, because it was the right thing to do. That, is what this country needs more of. I will bow out now.
