Only if they didn’t report such a message/activity and fully cooperate.

My understanding is that if you are party to things like this and don’t take the required action then you are liable to this wider definition of making.

So you are essentially complicit in the making of them because you didn’t try and stop/report it in a timely manner.

Happens with loads of other stuff like murders, terror, theft etc… Basically if you know about serious crimes and don’t take any action. Then you can be found guilty of a very similar offence as the people who committed the exact offence.

I have an ok machine and regularly use it.

I know a guy who works in the industry supplying machines and another who is a commercial roster. Both say similar things.

A good grinder and fresh beans are far more important. They both say the aeropress is an excellent way to brew and better than most cheaper espresso machines.

My advice based on that would be. Keep using the aeropress but if you want an upgrade get a good burr grinder.

That’s if your ultimate aim is making better coffee. If you just want to get better using a machine and have fun just pick one you like the look of and enjoy.

The quote. “Resentment is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die”

It’s like you’re doubling down on what happened. Either they didn’t know/care it hurt at the time or wanted to hurt you but now you’re using your energy to extend the hurt.

When you start getting angry about it acknowledge it but then do something positive for yourself.
