This is a discussion forum. You know - where people discuss things. Not everything is a ‘claim’ that has to be ‘substantiated’. Haranguing someone in this way is not what the site is about.
Again, read the thread. Nobody is supporting your behavior.
Here are some pointers from the site guidelines which may explain why:
> Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.
> Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
