        Well, looking up something on Google is very easy. I know when I want to know something, I don’t expect a stranger to spoon feed me information that takes a few seconds to pull up.

        If you disagree with a person’s point, you’re more than welcome to refute it with your own evidence.

          The person I was responding to was saying “we have studies stating that…” but they failed to link the studies. That’s not my fucking problem.

            It’s your problem if you want that information. This isn’t a formal debate, so no one is under any onus to provide sources for their arguments.

              If the other user doesn’t want to provide sources, I won’t really be convinced. That’s me giving them a chance to back up what they were saying, which someone else did. You can stop policing what people say on here now, thanks.

                That’s a you problem. If you disagree with their position, you’re more than welcome to provide evidence to the contrary.

                But don’t pretend that it’s nothing but pure lazyness to ask for a source without making any attempt to find one yourself.
