It’s my opinion that people are good and honest when they aren’t cynical about something. Like here’s it’s just a kid’s bike, but the person in me who has seen far too much of the internet know this probably would have gone a different way if it was just some commuter’s street bike instead.
My guess is someone would assume a post like that was just made by an entitled biker or something had it been a commuter bike, and it would get much more hate than it has, deemed untrustworthy, “did it for the clicks” etc
I find people are generally good and honest at heart. We just rarely take the time to find this out about one another.
True. Individuals often are. Organizations and movements can take advantage of that, turning good people into jerks, and that’s what frustrates me.

How do you think it may have went different?
I mean someone else already posted a more cynical comment

Yeah, that makes sense.
