When did the switch happen?

I’m glad you’re curious, you can do an internet search and find articles. You are curious, right? I mean certainly you are not asking so that you can claim it is invalid unless there is an exact year, month, and day that everyone swapped over. That would be disingenuous and bad faith argumentation. Surely you are above that.

All I’m looking for is a time frame when the parties “switched”, it’s telling that you can’t provide one. Even a definitive time when the parties finished switching would be sufficient but again you seem unable to provide one.

The switch is a made up lie that doesn’t hold up to facts.
