      From your link:

      One way in which one would attempt to shift the burden of proof is by committing a logical fallacy known as the argument from ignorance. It occurs when either a proposition is assumed to be true because it has not yet been proven false or a proposition is assumed to be false because it has not yet been proven true.

      On top of that, what you’re arguing doesn’t even meet the criteria for burden of proof, as I’ve already posted not only the title but also a quote from the article. I’ve provided proof. YOU made an unfounded claim that it was false. YOU lack the proof that what I’ve said is a lie when the evidence for what I’ve said is right there for you and everyone else to see. I’m not obliged to do your leg work because you choose not to accept it. You’re just displaying the lazy man’s version of moving the goalposts with some arm chair infantile argument. There’s toddlers with more well founded tantrums than what you are attempting here.

            So you spent a whole lot of time insulting me because you claimed you posted a link to an article and, rather than just show me the link even though I’ve asked you to multiple times, you’ve resorted to this. I’ll just flag you for trolling.

              I’ve never made that claim.

              You know what I think? That you realize how much of a fool you’ve made out of yourself so the only way out is for you to keep digging. I bet you’ve already seen the article by now and this is just your way of weaseling out of admitting you were wrong.

              Flag all you want, deluding yourself about things seems to be your favorite MO!

                I still haven’t seen any article. You can get as aggressive and insulting as you like, but the fact is I still haven’t seen whatever article you’re talking about.

                    …but you can’t get them to read an article that they can’t see a link to.

                    I mean seriously, I’ve been perfectly willing to read whatever article you’ve been talking about this entire time.

      No, it’s how educating yourself despite the other person works. I was right, you expect to be spoon fed knowledge like a school age child. You know they teach you how to research in grade school and it doesn’t involve begging for sources.

                I see. You will not pick which thread. That’s fine. You clearly aren’t interested in talking to me, just at me. In which case, I will only respond with ‘papaya’ from this point on.
