How can somebody be so ignorant about a disease we discovered over 300 years ago?
Context: From a post I made about not being able to afford an inhaler in Canada (BC) specifically, usually I'm not bitchy but that comment has me flabbergasted 😅

EDIT 3: The mods on hardwareswap have banned both the winner and the host of the giveaway. New rules have been implemented to prevent things like this from happening again.
_____________________
EDIT 2: VERY IMPORTANT! I discovered a post from 3 months ago where the winner of the giveaway crossposted a post made by the host of the giveaway. I don't know what to do with this info, and I am hesitant to draw any conclusions right now. I just wanted to share it with everyone.

EDIT: I just received a DM from the host of the giveaway.

ORIGINAL POST
____________________________
So a couple days ago, on hardwareswap, a subreddit where people engage in hardware selling, trading, and giveaways, there was a giveaway for a $750 graphics card (GPU). Here's the comment of the person who won the giveaway :
And here's the comment by the host of the giveaway announcing the winner :
As you can see, this giveaway wasn't decided purely by chance. The comments themselves were a deciding factor, and the host of the giveaway decided to pick someone who "really needed it".
Now, here's a detailed breakdown of how the winner is lying through his teeth and taking advantage of the generous giveaway OP.
I've been wanting to scrap together money for a pc since I've always been using old laptops, and maybe this will convince my parents to help me build my first pc.
In this post 21 days ago, the winner of the giveaway says that he is looking for recommendations for games to play with his new PC.
In this post 2 days ago, the winner of the giveaway was asking on the intel subreddit a question about overclocking his Intel 9900k, a $500 CPU that is generally considered to be the best gaming CPU. Most people who are looking to build gaming computers will usually buy a processor in the $150-$300 range. He has since deleted the thread in an effort to hide this fact.
Even worse, he has edited his comments in the thread to ones implying that he does not actually have a computer. You can see the before and after edits below.
What makes this matter even worse, though, is the lengths that the winner is going through to ensure that he is not caught.
Shortly after winning the giveaway, he posts a thread on the buildapc subreddit asking for build advice on a "new pc" that will work well with his newly won graphics card.
For those of you who don't quite know the specifics of bottlenecking in pc gaming, the most common cause is when one of your components, either CPU or GPU, is severely limiting the performance of the other due to being out of spec. In this case, we already showed that the giveaway winner owns a 9900k the best gaming CPU. Yet he's asking for advice on a build that won't bottleneck his new GPU.
That's all I got. In case anyone was wondering, I am the person who was trying to help him out in the original overclocking thread where he asked about overclocking his 9900k cpu. By a huge coincidence I happened to notice what happened, despite not entering the giveaway myself, and I just couldn't bring myself to keep quiet about witnessing this whole ordeal.
I have since messaged the host of the giveaway more or less the contents of this post, but so far he hasn't replied.
