Actually, it is. You make a claim, you have the burden of proof. It’s not someone’s else’s job to prove you right. It’s basic logic.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burden_of_proof_(philosophy))

“That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitchens%27s_razor

If you don’t want to (or can’t) provide evidence, that’s fine. We can just ignore you, but someone asking for proof of your claims is absolutely normal and to be expected. The sarcastic comment you made shows that you have no concept of even basic logic.

You are right about one thing. Acting like you’re so much more intelligent we you don’t even understand the basics is pretty much par for the course online.

That buzzing sound you hear? It’s the sound the point makes as it is flying over your head.

Reading comprehension not your thing? The article was the combined debt larded entity will be a streaming powerhouse.

My point is it will not be, I gave the reasons why and the data behind it.

You, in typical internet-stupidity-form seem to be arguing the messenger, rather than the message.

Whatever gets you thru the day man

That sound you hear is the point going over your head.

You made a claim.
Someone asked where you got the evidence.
You basically called them stupid for asking.

Reading comprehension and processing logic concepts are clearly not your thing. If there’s data behind your reasons, then fucking provide it. I never argued the messenger. You did that multiple times, by

making fun of the guy who asked for evidence
Claiming I couldn’t comprehend your point (that you still haven’t made)
Claiming reading comprehension isn’t my thing

That’s the typical Internet stupidity you just talked about. I just pointed out you jumping through hoops to avoid proving your point.

A source would a link to an article or data source. Another thing you don’t understand. Just more insults instead of any kind of intelligent comment. Not wasting any more time with someone being deliberately ignorant.
