You didn't imply bad intent, you outright suggested it.

You didn't imply bad intent, you outright suggested it.
He means he doesn't say it was necessarily bad intent, but mentions it as a possibility ("thinking out loud").
Thinking out loud isn't a free pass to say stuff without consequences. Sure we are all protected under free speech, but free speech doesn't remove the meaning and the impact words have in the world.
I could've phrased it better.
You could rewrite it a 1000 times, if the underlying idea is the same, suggesting something you don't know it's true, the outcome would be the same. Or did you mean something else? What was your intention with the message?
I meant it as a hint for anyone inclined to dig deeper. It's a possibility rather than something we can confidently dismiss.
