    Hey buddy, how about responding to the rest of what I wrote? Or are you just going to retreat to your grotto, dismayed that you were given something that challenged your conventions?

      they do this all the time, ignore all the overwhelming evidence and only focus on one thing that looks like they can dismantle. Not in name of a legit argument but because of an intense chauvinistic and reactionary impulse to defend their worldview.

        The silent downvote is probably the most pathetic part. I got a comment removed for being “uncivil” - The comment was me pointing out someone was dodging the question, literally just “answer the question”. Its such a deep part of a part of these peoples character, that challenging it is seen as rude, apparently.
