Please refrain from assuming that anyone asking a question is being "snarky"


Definition of snarky: critical or mocking in an indirect or sarcastic way.

What you said. The 3rd sentence in particular: I guess when enough people say something it becomes a "fact"

So that was just simply asking a question? No mocking or sarcasm? Without the last sentence you would have just been asking a question. With it, you are being snarky.
