I believe you, but I don’t have a position. I can’t possibly “have a position” on a halachic matter that I know nothing about.
I had thought that you had said that you are not obligated to protect yourself from a safeik sakana. I apologize if I misunderstood.
While I don’t know anything about the topic, I am wondering if a loshon hora situation could be different from regular situations since it entails this idea of being choshesh without being mekabel which probably wouldn’t occur in any other sakana situation?
