    The thing I don’t get is all these random LMG apologists saying “actually here is exactly why it happened and is actually completely okay” despite absolutely no one having a true inside view of the company.

    Like I saw someone just randomly guessing really stupid reasons why Madison is in the wrong, and acting like they have secret knowledge.
