So you are saying our "whistleblower" in question is the rational entity here?

One person's "whistleblower" is another's toxic personality/messiah complex sort with an agenda.

Of course the trick is figuring out who really DOES have a legitimate claim, and who doesn't. Kind of like the following I learned in a college class. "I" is the positive connotation of a statement, "you" is the neutral, and "he" is the negative--but they all say the same thing.

I am reconsidering an issue.

You changed your mind.
