    You keep saying you have a large sample size but you won’t say how large. Why should anyone believe you?

          If you look back, the people addressing me have been arguing about why I shouldn’t believe my sources, and they’re using nothing but degrading insults and authoritarian arguments to try to sway me. My responses have all been appropriate. Nobody has asked for clarification or explanation. They just read my claims and reacted with their own narcissistic responses. I don’t care if you all remain ignorant of the truth.

            “I have a huge sample size but I’m not even going to say how large” is not an appropriate response.

              Allow me to rephrase for people like you. “I am confident in my research and experience, and I have no desire to explain years of work to the willfully ignorant.”

                All kinds of people are confident despite being very wrong. Confidence is not a substitute for evidence. Neither is insulting people.

                    Does it? You insulted me by calling me willfully ignorant. I didn’t insult you or make it personal at all, so that sounds like it applies to your responses, not mine. And how is insulting me appropriate when you claim all of your responses are appropriate when I did not do you the same discourtesy?
