  That a particular post “sounds” fake as hell is indeed a specific, qualified claim.

  No, it still is not. Qualifying a claim means to carefully scope it and be honest about its limits rather then using a all-encompassing assertion. Saying something sounds fake is not a qualified claim. Saying something sounds fake because many of these ‘Karen’ types of posts are faked on the internet would be one method of qualifying your claim (albeit poorly), while providing specific details about why you believe this one in particular is fake would then be supporting your claim (just to head that argument off.). I encourage you to actually look up some examples of what a qualified claim is if you’re going to try to argue what is and is not one.

  I’m not saying that nothing similar ever happened at any point in time which is what you’re trying to get me to defend.

  I pointed out numerous counterexamples that we can both agree happen to showcase how this post could be true, which just showcases how your post lacks qualification. Your post was an absolute claim; It doesn’t acknowledge exceptions or counterpoints that one might make.

  I’d recommend you bow out of this one, it’s abundantly clear that you’re in over your head here. Or you can keep arguing on the internet about how you’re arguing on the Internet, I’m not your dad. Just some dork who has as much or more free time as you do.

    I’d recommend you see a shrink because you’re escalating the importance of yourself and of one of the stupidest arguments I’ve ever seen.

    Should I block you now, or after the next wall of text you produce?

      Oh someone is going to block me rather than admit they’re wrong. I’m going to lose so much sleep over this.

      one of the stupidest arguments I’ve ever seen.

      Odd, was gonna say that about you. How does one make a qualified claim without a qualifier? Is English not your first language, or are you just the tyoe of person to hand folks a piece of bread with some jelly on it and insist its a PB&J?
