I already answered this, but since you seem to have a terrible case of amnesia, here is the answer again:
My feeling still aren’t hurt but we’ve already established I have thicker skin then you.
You’re free to your “beliefs” but the evidence here says otherwise.
If there’s evidence then you should have no problem producing it.
You already produced that evidence when you commented…every time you comment. And I point it out every time. Just like the ad hominem attacks. But you seem to have serious memory problems.
It’s irrational to blame others for things you, yourself, do and say.
How is that evidence my feelings are hurt?
It’s just evidence that you are more sensitive then me when it comes to people disagreeing on the internet.
You lashing out with personal attacks when met with facts that debunk your beliefs is not the fault of others. And when you falsely perceive others as feeling the “anguish” (the word you chose) that you, yourself, feel in these moments, that’s psychological projection.
Nobody else is to blame for your inability to process rejection and the upending of your “beliefs” in a healthy manner; it’s yours and yours alone. Too bad you gambled your health and well-being on not getting health insurance, or you’d be able to work through such difficult emotions with a therapist.
You haven’t been able to debunk a single belief of mine so far so I haven’t had anything to lash out about.
And the amnesia strikes again…
Convenient how that only happens when you have no rational, evidence-based response.
Or, perhaps, it’s another thing that psychologists refer to as “denial”…
It’s mostly because what you say aligns with your beliefs but not mine so they aren’t as effective towards me as you’d like to believe.
Ah, the projection again…
You made this very clear, from the start, that this is - and always has been - about your “beliefs”. I have merely stated (and re-stated and re-stated) facts. Whether you believe those facts is irrelevant, and I don’t really care. I’m pretty sure that you’re so invested in your “beliefs” that no amount of facts would ever change your mind.
And I’m not here to change your mind— just to keep pointing out how, when, and why you’re wrong. See… I have no emotional investment here because these aren’t my “beliefs”…. They’re yours.
I’m not wrong, you are. But I’m not trying to forcibly change your mind because I respect your freedom to make objectively wrong choices for yourself.
All evidence to the contrary.
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…
I don’t gamble.

Not to mention the gambling you’ve been doing this whole time by engaging in this silly debate
I don’t gamble and this is a friendly conversation.
You’re free to your “beliefs”, but the evidence here contradicts them
That’s your belief.
I’ve clearly established it as fact, using evidence, repeatedly.
Unlike you and your “beliefs“ about health insurance and gambling
Your evidence is mostly telling me that I am wrong.
No, it’s proving that you’re wrong with evidence to back up my claims that your “beliefs” on this subject are clearly based on ignorance.
Your choice to gamble your health and well-being on that ignorance is your own responsibility.
