Imgurians expect that the original poster (OP) will be explicit about if and how they are connected to the content they are posting. Trying to hide that relationship, or not explaining it well to others, is a common feature of bad sharing.
This is retarded. Someone's motives for posting something may be interesting, but the content stands on its own.
I was tearing my hair out when all that derogatory information about Hillary Clinton and her email servers etc. got leaked and the press wanted to focus on the fact that they thought Russia was behind it.
If it's true, who cares? Sure, they have an ulterior motive in releasing the information but that doesn't change its truthfulness.
