Nothing to break up!
If someone shares an opinion - that's wonderful and very welcome, but others have the right to ask 'Why? What leads you to that conclusion?'. Particularly if that opinion is being presented as unquestionable fact.
The last thing I'd ever want is to censor or stifle discussion on this forum, but if I'd started a thread saying 'I've done some tests, and Dyson is DEFINITELY better than Kirby', or 'Dyson is the best of all the vacuum cleaners', I don't think people would have stayed quiet about that. The word 'lynch-mob' springs to mind...
I don't generally take criticism personally, but if someone says 'this is clearly better, and only a fool can't see that', yes, that's making things personal! I don't care whether the majority of the forum agrees with me or not; I don't care that I'm sticking up for the underdog. But I will put my point across.
