This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Are you talking to me? I mean you replied to my comment, but saying that I'm referencing studies doesn't make any sense. Well at least not to me, because I don't believe that I claimed to have any studies for anything.

If you meant to reply to me, please go read my first paragraph, and the maybe try it a second time. I actively tried to avoid getting labeled as dismissing the claims.

I just like publications and medical evidence.

so by that you mean you just like them but dont use or reference them? and yet you still ask others to show theirs? what kind of logic is this?!?!?

I justified asking for studies. At no point did I claim to have spent hours searching pubmed. How hard is that to comprehend?

Have you ever tried searching pubmed and vetting studies by reading abstracts? It's not like using google and clicking on the first result.

First off, searching for studies backing up some claims will always introduce confirmation bias. Secondly finding relevant studies, vetting the search results, by reading the abstracts, validating the scope of the study, deciphering the methods used, etc, will easily take the same number of hours as OP would spend in minutes to copy paste from their bibliography system.

if you don't expect yourself to give any sources to your claims, why the hell are you expecting others to give sources to their claims?

I think you are confusing people. DanishGuy is not the OP. They are a third person asking for the person debating the OP to back up their claims. It confused me too.

yes i got confused between danishguy and someone else because he seemed to have the same points as the other guy. thanks for telling me, as i don't think i wouldve noticed alone.

if you don't expect yourself to give any sources to your claims [...]

Which claims have I made?

oh sorry i thought you were someone else, but still, you seem to be siding with someone who didn't show any proof of their points.
