I really hope this is me overthinking/overreacting, but it seems as of lately that users that have the :verified: emoji next to their names here on Mastodon feel that their opinion often overrides those opinions of others who don't have the same emoji in their names here.

I've experienced this in a couple of conversations myself, but have seen it in several others that I'm not involved in. (cont...)
