      I’m not wrong, you are

      All evidence to the contrary.

      But I’m not trying to forcibly change your mind because I respect your freedom to make objectively wrong choices for yourself.

      There’s that amnesia again! I just said that I’m not trying to change your mind, that I don’t care what you believe, and that I don’t even think I could change your mind if I tried because of how emotionally invested you are in them— hence your lashing out when they’re challenged.

      I also clearly said that you’re free to your “beliefs”— but the facts and evidence contradict them. You have chosen to lash out because you object to me pointing that out.

      Not a gamble that’s paid off for you, I would say…
