Inquirer said:Now you're pushing this false dichotomy where either any evidence must be acceptable or we have to treat them all strictly scientifically.
You are incorrect.
I pointed out that if you claim that you wanted me to merely give "one or more reasons for believing that something is or is not true", then this is ill-defined. The common way to define `evidence` is that it is verifiable, for obvious reasons.
In simpler terms, I'm pointing out that you are resorting to semantics to get away with not admitting you abandoned your stance.
And why should evidence not be treated scientifically?
Read my posts again and you'll find that I ask for reasonable evidence/reasoning. Nothing more.
It seems to me like reasonable evidence would be something I can trust.
I will never be able to satisfy you that someone is who they say they are unless I dox them, if even that is enough for you. You haven't even commented on the fact that a Swedish person you didn't even account for (an extra Swede!) has actually been doxed and shown to be Swedish. You also don't consider Sensy and I talking in a Skype call at the same time to be enough so how could I possibly persuade you? What would it actually take for you to be convinced?
Don't be redinkulous, Inquirer.
You can use your own argument: Give me proof that all these people have spoken/written Swedish consistently over the forum years and/or claimed they are Swedish.
Website links will do.
I'm not whining, I'm making fun of you. You started the name calling and spend far more time doing it than I. You write paragraphs while I write sentences. I think it's pretty clear who's losing the argument.
This is yet another fallacy. Writing paragraphs vs writing sentences has nothing to do with winning or losing an argument.
This is sad.
