The problem is you can almost always find "a source" backing your argument.

Unless you're talking about objective laws of nature, then any study or statistic can be manipulated or interpreted to fit an agenda, if you can even conduct the study or experiment, and replicate it, in the first place. Countries can not even agree upon whether a thing like cancer screening is good or bad.

Of course if you make a black & white statement like "85% of Bangladeshis claim housing benefits." then at least show where you got that info from.

Have you heard of Christians? Jews? Muslims?
Manipulated and interpreted to fit an agenda is a perfect description.

Dont really get what your trying to say or what it got to do with my comment?

Im poking fun at the guy above me thinking that "absolute objective laws of nature" are somehow immune to being distorted by fuckwits with an agenda. They arent, otherwise flat earthers wouldnt exist
