I mean, I know you aren't besties or anything, and I'm not saying this just because I'm his friend. But people can get into serious trouble because of rumours.
And it's not like Harry hasn't gotten into serious danger when Draco or that mudblood of his was around, probably more than when he's been around Ron even. But because of rumours, a bunch of Aurors came over to Ron's house and questioned him for hours.
So saying things like that have serious consequences. Not just with reputations at school and stuff.
