On-screen text

Defamation of character is a civil wrong (tort) that occurs when someone makes a false statement about you to a third party, causing measurable harm to your reputation or livelihood. To legally qualify as defamation, the statement must be presented as a fact rather than an opinion, and it must be completely untrue. *also my opinion 🤣🤣

Replying to @skinafter45 Can we talk about the difference between sharing your opinion/experience and defamation? 😂 I shared what I actually observed during Chip Gate and why I chose to leave. My experience and my opinions are mine to share, even if you disagree with them. 🥰

sharing YOUR experience isn't defamation.. Hello. What did I lie about? I was simply sharing why I chose to leave a community I was paying to be a part of. All which was my personal experience which I feel like I'm allowed to talk about without it being defamation. They're defaming themselves. You're defaming yourselves. I really don't have to help them do that. Go watch the video again. What I was describing was my perception of that situation. How it personally made me feel as a paying member of their community. My wording made it seem like I was trying to cause harm to them or their community or that I was telling people not to join. Go watch the video again because that was not my intention at all. I don't care if you join Evil Pro, honestly. I don't care what you waste your money on. Definitely don't have to leave because I left. If you're getting some kind of value from that community, that's great. Do you believe what happened to me or not? It doesn't change my experience with that community. It was a ton of drama surrounding them. I decided that it wasn't the environment I wanted to be investing in anymore. So yeah, my experience with them was different. And I'm allowed to come on here and share why I'm spending my money elsewhere now. That's not defamation. That's my personal experience.
