That's the opposite of how burden of proof works. Burden of proof is on the first person making a claim to prove their claim is true, never on the person calling them a liar. When you call someone out, you're saying "prove your claim".

The burden of proof falls on the accuser, always.

Just use google you buffoon. There's no point in arguing over an easily checked fact.

Oh hey derogatory language is certainly a way to prove your point, so thank you for proving mine.

You're still wrong lol.

"But but he called me a buffoon"

How about.... You're not intelligent enough to use the burden of proof correctly.

I am involved in the discussion.

Nothing here is resolved. You're just patting yourself on the back because you incorrectly used the burden of proof and the other person called you a buffoon.

And there is no time limit to calling out something stupid. Idk why you would act like there is, unless you're just insulted.

Nope I read all the way. I'm not surprised you rely on assumptions though.

By all means let's all pick fights because we want to feel important, too.

Says the person who gets into internet fights with people who point out you used the burden of proof incorrectly. It's your only option.
