SGA - "The 'Toft' incident"

I think this is pretty simple and you can break it down to this:

Toft manipulated people for her own entertainment.

Most people don't react kindly to finding out that they were manipulated without knowing about it.

It's not a fandom-exclusive reaction - it's pretty universal no matter the context.

It's not the context - it's the fact itself that matters.

If you find it ludicrous that some people feel hurt by Toft's manipulation now - then remember this the next time *you* feel bad about finding out you were manipulated.
