Thought by whom? Passive voice phrasing is, in this context, weasel phrasing.

I’ve probably been the strongest critic of **tomndebb** ’s moderation in that thread, but i also said in my post:

If i were interested in joining the thread, i would definitely be arguing against their assertions. I also tend to agree with **tomndebb** ’s claim that they are venting their prejudices. But that sometimes happens in GD, and they haven’t broken the rules, and they are not, despite his claim, “off topic.”
