Did something change recently, or are you just being contrarian? I did a quick search before posting to see if there was something I missed, but I didn't do a deep dive because I have better things to spend my time on. So yes, I based my response on things that I knew while being open to the possibility that I was wrong. What exactly do you want dude?

Like arguing with people about it on social media? Any time you're spending here is time you could have been spending looking into it, so you are literally saying it is a more valuable use of your time to argue with people about a subject you don't know much about than to look it up yourself.

What exactly do you want dude?

To point out the sheer arrogance of saying "I'm not up to date on this but you're wrong." A better response would have been "I'm not up to date on this, what has been said recently?"

Fine. I'm not up to date on this, what has been said recently?
