Who suggested "dismissing" evidence? I agree with you but it's also "a bit silly" to make a snap judgement based on ONE piece of evidence and without bothering to fully examine that piece of evidence.
Evidence should be weighed with a level-head and action taken with consideration and caution. Appartently, Corbyn saying that makes him "a terrorists sympathiser RrrreeeEEeehhh!!11!1!". People seem to just adore being reactionary, over-dramatic and illogical... it's a pretty worrying trend, but I don't think it's anything new really. The new and scary thing is that the "people in charge" have jumped on the same bandwagon in the last few years
