Ah... so edw519 knew Aaron was worried about being financially able to see his case through, but thought he should "man up" and be financially decimated (or financially unable due to frozen assets). Makes sense.

You are merely pointing to the fact that some people shouldn't opine until they bother to look into the facts. Having a half-understanding about what's going on and making a proclamation always seemed foolhardy to me ...

Exactly. edw519 more or less said Aaron's privileged and made money in the past so he doesn't need help from the community now. He rallied the community against supporting Aaron making an assumption that Aaron didn't need the support.
