Brillo having contradictory stances isn't really the issue though; people often have contradictory opinions. The back-up though, just confirms to me that Brillo is "someone that you two will back up" regardless of what is actually being said. I'm not painting you as villains, just making an observation, but it does I think render it fairly meaningless when you jump in on other threads to adamantly state that "Brillo is entitled to her opinion!".
If you are going to lump me in as Brillo's defender, perhaps you should go through and see how many of her posts I quote. You might find the result a surprise. I will support Brillo the same as anyone else when I agree with her, but I'm not her cheer team. Get your facts straight before bring me into it please.

I do actually support everyone being allowed to have their opinion though and Brillo is probably the most shouted down person on the forum. But if you are telling me I am the first to back her up, you need to back that up with multiple examples or back off.

In bold. Show me.
