Just had a person block me because I couldn't find their claims

that being a pedophile is related to sexual repression. I tried looking it up and I found that out should be looked at as a mental illness to treat and manage people so they don't offend but honestly couldn't find anything about sexual repression anywhere. He then told me I was angry and blocked me after I couldn't find his claims lols 😂

He was being ridiculous.

The rule is that the person making a claim should be the one to prove it. That standard applies in science, any other academia, law, journalism and pretty much everything else. It's not your job to prove them wrong. On the Guardian website forums (which did have a lot of smart people on it) that was universally accepted as a standard by people across the political spectrum and anyone telling others to prove them wrong would be mocked for having the audacity to use such a lame argument.

I could say that aliens walk the Earth and that you need to prove me wrong because otherwise, I win. Clearly, this is bonkers.

Sometimes in a debate, you actually can prove someone wrong because they are clueless and you have a source ready to hand. Really though, it shouldn't be expected.

@SatanBurger He's a nutter talking shite. It's impossible to be reasonable with these people.

"If we just lowered the age of consent, there would be no pedophilia!"

"We only have more Covid cases because of the TESTING! We need to slow the testing down!"

@SW-User Lol about the same logic.
Not how debating works... you're supposed to cite your own sources to back up your claims - not expect the other person to find them for you.

By him blocking you, he's done you a favor of not being subjected to nonsense or nonscience in this case

@Ferric67 Yeah it's weird, he was in my circle even though we didn't talk much but he been making passive aggressive comments on my posts for awhile before then so it was quite obvious that it wasn't going to work lol
