      Well, what kind of sources did you find for the claims that you are actively stating as facts? I think it’s important to provide sources for claims as strong as these, regardless of whether you are a reporter or a veterinarian.

      If your response is ‘just google it’, its not a response.

      Onus is on you to support your claims.

        User Num10ck actually said they don’t believe that OJ’s son did it, and they’re just articulating another prevalent theory. If this were a debate I’d agree with you, but this is just casual speculation about an event from 30 years ago.

          Its just bad internet manners to not provide the links to the claim you want people to understand/ engage with.

          Like, if we’re going to discuss something, and you have a point your are looking to make, drop a link. Its not my job to put out effort to find support or research a claim I’m not making.

            It really is. Now you have all these suggestions you’re not going to qualify. Arguing is performative and it’s clear you would rather do that than take five seconds to clarify lmao

                Here’s the thing: nobody on the internet ever wants to have a philosophical discussion with you, much less with a username like Tropical Dingdong. Nobody has to prove shit to you. I can make outlandish claims like “Crazy frog arcade racer 2 is the best racing game ever created” and not back it up at all and that’s fine. Nobody has to argue with you or give you any benefit of the doubt. I know I sure won’t.

          If you make a claim, you’ve got to go out and gather, qualify, and frame the evidence.

          Not our job, yours.

              Nah just been on the Internet a long time and sharing it’s norms with you.

              You make a claim, any claim, and it’s your job to provide some level of support, no one else’s.
