Its an opinion man, not a peer-reviewed journal.

Actually it’s not an opinion, like saying I enjoy pizza with pineapple. It’s a completely unsupportable statement of fact.

It's their opinion of a person. You can judge someone without having explicit statements from them

You absolutely can, I agree. But you can’t read their mind.

You can infer what they think based on their words and actions. You’re pedantry here about not knowing what someone is thinking without “mind reading” is A: incorrect unless you believe inferring things is impossible and B: a pointless interrupt to the conversation

great contributions you're providing here.
