Of course it’s my opinion that anyone who thinks that Perkins deserves to have her performance compared with that of Freud loses credibility.

It’s always going to be a poster’s opinion unless the point of the post involves a fact that can be proven or otherwise.

Surely that goes without saying.

Ok?

I don't think we should go into whether someone loses creditability or not, it suggests that some of us had it in the first place... It's much better to say: I disagree, or on the contrary, just to show that it's an opinion thing.
