    • Have you been drinking, sailor? :P

      But yeah. I'm simply saying this:

      Even if most comments express one opinion, it doesn't mean that most IINers have this opinion.

      And even if most IINers have this opinion, it doesn't mean that most people in the world share this opinion.

      And yet I instinctively thought this way. This was my logical fallacy.
