When you're attempting to advance extraordinary claims, the burden of proof is on you to prove it. It is not on your audience to disprove it. For example, when you say something like "Hunter Biden is a pedophile" then the burden would be on you to show that there is reasonable cause to believe such a thing. This is a classic bad faith technique rooted in that same "x is true, change my mind" gimmick that the moron Steven Crowder has popularized.

A lot of you seem to have great difficulty understanding how this works. Thank me later.
