A more honest answer, a lot of the time. If I say "a friend told me this and I'm worried that she might be being harassed," people are primed to already tell me to check it out or ask. If I repeat exactly what my friend said to me, and other people also see warning flags in what she said, I know I'm not only being overly paranoid and overreacting to jokes.

That's a made up example, but that kind of post.

I was thinking more about situations where you'll get people arguing back and forth about whether or not something is offensive. That was the sense I got from the OP.

[(Anonymous)]

I am the OP though...

Controversial may have been the wrong word in retrospect. I don't mean dumb trolly BS like "I hate black people," that's clearly trolling in order to inflame wank.

Examples I have posted about are other people's opinions on what constitutes acceptable behavior in general or in a religious sense, whether the justice system is too lenient, whether something is ethical or not, whether something counts as bullying, some habits that someone has mentioned having that made me worry they were a little sociopathic that other people agreed with so I wasn't only being paranoid... that kind.

[sarillia]

Sorry, I try not to assume that any two anon comments are from the same person unless they tell me that.

I still wouldn't expect a less honest answer if I was honest about the controversial statement coming from someone else with most of those examples. I would only be worried about honesty when it was something personal, which I'm realizing is what I was actually trying to get at before.

The responses always feel less honest when people phrase things as "someone told me" or "my friend said..." and "what do you guys think because I'm not sure? Is this bullying?" in other threads I see. It frames it in a way that something is supposed to be questionable about it so people tend to dig or imagine worst case scenarios.
