    Not that you haven’t had this explained to you repeatedly, but… thats not how the burden of proof works.

    Example:

    If I say “zephyreks is an unrepentant kisser of billionaire toes,” then I should be the one to provide proof of toe kissing. It’s not on you to prove that you don’t kiss billionaire toes.

    In the article, the author makes a claim. They do not back up the claim with evidence. They dong do so, they should expect to be criticized for it.
