It all comes down to believing the best or the worst about whoever you like or dislike. It is all conjecture, surmise, supposition, etc., and the conclusion one comes to is about what they want to believe as opposed to what is the truth.

In other words, it's a wash. And discussing it to death persuades no one, and changes no minds.
