you know exactly what you’re doing, and it’s no misunderstanding. you’re intentionally trolling. if you have any genuine intentions, you’ll simply stop. by replying to this comment, you confirm that you’re trolling.

moe Sealioning

Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity (“I’m just trying to have a debate”), and feigning ignorance of the subject matter. It may take the form of “incessant, bad-faith invitations to engage in debate”, and has been likened to a denial-of-service attack targeted at human beings. The term originated with a 2014 strip of the webcomic Wondermark by David Malki, which The Independent called “the most apt description of Twitter you’ll ever see”.

Again, your comment stated that the authors are kooks.

Again, if you have specific evidence or quotes as to why you think this man is crazy, I’m all ears.

ah, I’ve identified the problem-- either you’re illiterate, or you think I’m stupid enough to be distracted by your obvious trolling to notice you’re trying to put words in my mouth.

enough with the Sealioning

so, after citing other works which have no bearing whatsoever on this one, you agree that he’s kooky.

are you trolling for any particular reason or just because you’re bored?

I’m just disputing the characterization you made

how does opining on one of the author’s reputability have to do with the integrity of the study or its findings? that’s like saying Teslas are good cars because you happen to like Elon Musk.

that doesn’t really mean much with regard to the validity of the study, though

so you just found some crazy study online by some academic kooks and, rather than apply an ounce of critical thought, you just believed it.
