Not if they don't actually mention it, no. It's not that evidence doesn't exist (it may or may not, and people may or may not agree that something is evidence), it's that none was provided. Without that, all you get is people yelling that they're right and someone else is wrong. Evidence lets people move the argument to useful territory.
