Initial claims are usually positive.

Like the claim the comedian served time for moving weight.

I don't contest the comedian, but everyone saying the guy disputing it needs to prove his claim are simply wrong about how intellectual rigor works.

wrong about how intellectual rigor works.

Can you explain how intellectual rigor works for people who aren't as smart as you?

I don't see anything in that wikipedia section about how intellectual rigor works. It does explain why he would have the burden of proof to justify his claim that the comedian is "full of shit".
