    I never claimed that discourse doesn’t require rebuttal, in fact invite it. Honest debate is important.

    Now I’m not saying this directly to you, but most of the replies I’m getting are not that. And most of the posts and threads about this subject are not that. It’s an echo chamber.

    I just don’t want more irrelevant “lol you stupid” responses because they are pointless.

    Now I’m probably going to piss you off here. But I don’t put a lot of stock in random .com and .net type links.

    If they are .edu or at least well reviewed wiki article then I’ll consider them. Because I can also find links that support any argument and claim any “truth”.

    As an example, the world is run by Reptile Aliens. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/240595423_The_Reptoid_Hypothesis_Utopian_and_Dystopian_Representational_Motifs_in_David_Icke’s_Alien_Conspiracy_Theory
