Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

Based on being together before she was hired. That is literally the opposite of baseless.
He could very likely be very wrong in his assumptions - and they are assumptions - but definitely based on information provided.
Then look around for more info.
Huh? What is your point? We both agree that they are assumptions, and I wasn't commenting on the accuracy of them. They could be wildly inaccurate.
Only that they weren't "baseless". They were based in something. That's it. End of discussion.
Everything you've posted are just different bases for different assumptions - it doesn't negate the basis, just changes the accuracy of them.
But of course lemmy gives a rapey CEO the benefit of the doubt when it comes to abusing a woman. Any other topic and they'd be shitting on him. Fucking disgusting.
The phrase "baseless assumptions" does not mean that no base was provided. It means that the purported base is inadequate to support a causal likelihood that the assumptions are true.
Besides which, your argument is one of semantics, which you're welcome to.
False and a lie.
