  "I think it's X with no evidence" "I think it's Y with no evidence" "Woah woah there, how dare you disagree with the groupthink, are you prepared to cite some sources?" Why does X but not Y get to be presumed true until proven otherwise? Because we really want X to be true okayy.

    That is not how it went. The first person took a guess, and the second implied information that we don't have: "I guess X" "You are guessing wrong"

      >Hitchens's razor is an epistemological razor that serves as a general rule for rejecting certain knowledge claims. It states "what can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence."

        Yes! Now, what was asserted without evidence?
