Some people will believe anything you tell them if you add some fancy words to your claims

Are you one of them?

No. I do not speak like that to others.

Similarly, I can usually tell when the "fancy" words are not "fancy" but genuine technical terms, or are just waffle. Or are genuine terms but used without comprehension by someone trying to sound clever or to twist the meaning.

@ArishMell I didn't say you do tho. But it's also true if you cook up some facts and throw in some fancy words they'll buy anything you're selling without doing any research or their own

@Thanos Oh, don't worry. I know the "you" was general.

Yes, a very valid point. The problem is more acute when the recipient is not only lazy but also only wants to believe his or her own preconceptions irrespective of logic or truth.

@ArishMell exactly as long as they fit their agenda they won't bother double checking it
