    “I believe what this guys claims”

    “I need some proof to believe him personally”

    “You need proof to believe a claim? This isn’t as court of law. Your critical thinking skills suck if you don’t understand this is just a baseless accusation I want to believe.”

      Dude, it’s a news article. Not a court disposition. Calm your tits.

      I belive him. You don’t. It’s ok to have a different opinion. Thanks!

        It is also ok to ask for proof, and challenge people’s statements, is it not? Cause this is some big “It was only a joke, you take things too seriously” energy. If you don’t want people to express their opinions, about your opinions, you need to not make them public.

          Sure. Just as it’s ok to believe someone based on the reality of things and how things work without having to ask for proof or challenge people’s statements.

          Hey if you wanna live a life, where every time someone talks to you says something and you cry, “Proof! Where’s the proof? I’m not gonna believe you till I see proof!” Go right ahead. That’s your right.

          If you don’t believe Zucker, then you don’t have to. I totally respect your right to that opinion. I just don’t share your opinion.

          And that’s ok. I believe him. You don’t. Cool. I also think he’s an annoying little prick. And some people don’t. That’s ok.

          I think he’s telling the truth. Many others do too. But you are totally free to disagree. Thanks!

            If you just want have your opinion, and not have people questioning it, all you have to do is not make it public.

                  Yeah, we are here.

                  Because you can’t let it go and you keep waiting for me to give you a different answer–which I won’t do.

                  Thanks, friend! :)

                    you keep waiting for me to give you a different answer

                    I haven’t the slightest hope I will change anyone’s opinion. In fact, there is evidence that things like contradictory evidence are more than likely to just make people doubly down. I am here because you felt the desire to post your opinion online, and I felt like I wanted to post my opinion about that, and now, here we are, with you claiming you don’t have to defend your post, but still giving me things to post my opinion about.
