I notice that some of the contributors to this forum who seem most zealous in their accusations (unsupported by evidence) that there is a vast and maliciously evil conspiracy against Hans Niemann do not seem to be considering whether they themselves are observing the principle of presumption of innocence as applied to the targets of their own attacks. Rationality, fairness, and humane thought are usually not the hallmarks of Holy War.
Because we really don't know, we should probably make an effort to exercise restraint before making accusations against anyone. Even if we are convinced that our motives are good (e.g., seeking to protect the weak against oppression, fighting against injustice, etc.), we risk causing greater harm whenever we rush to accuse others. Or so it seems to me.

Chess.con jumped into an over the board matter, Magnus referred to Dlugy online cheating before chess.con leaked the private correspondence. They themselves conflated the matter, not anyone else. Hikaru and Hansen also jumped in with both feet.

Whether or not there is a conspiracy is not the matter at hand, what people have allowed to happen unchecked to a teenagers character, needs to be accounted for.

You are a logical fallacy

This is a logical fallacy in itself. Lol.
A human being cannot be a logical fallacy.
And don't be offensive. Don't you have dignity?
But what can you expect from someone who has been debunked and is out of arguments.
People who have no arguments then always have to rely on insults or on ad hominem arguments.
You must be a flat earther and a Trump voter too, right?
