    No!

    No matter how they try and trick you as a /.er you should never allow yourself to come into contact with the facts of a situation before commenting thoroughly.

    Now after you have commented to your hearts desire you can ( If you choose to.) read the articles and even dive deeper into the facts of the situation. Just make sure you are "Fact Pure" while you are posting.
