I was demonstrating how you can call someone on their BS while being
objective. I have no respect for Vernon Felton or anyone at BIKE magazine, nor
for anyone at NSMB or ridemonkey or pinkbike or blister or TGR who is engaged
in product review or explanation of changes within the "industry." They all
either consciously lie, or deceive themselves while being what feels honest.
It's ironic that in an era where North Americans can see lying duplicity from
politicians and hate it, they don't see the very same 2-faced practice if it
comes to the shilling practices of MTB "industry insider" paid writers. Hell
it even infests the unpaid writers, because they're busy building a Social
Brand as whatever they actually are not in real life.
