I've seen this in a number of threads but I've never seen direct proof?

You can google it. She’s said on numerous occasions and in many many social media posts that he abused her

Everytime smb. says "you can Google it" I think about googling it and expect some weird niche article from some esoteric sites. But then I think, why didn't you Google it and posted an link? Why should I try to find a trustworthy source for your claim?

  1. Because you asked
  2. It’s not my claim
  3. Because it’s a sensitive topic revolving SA and I feel weird sending the link.

Regardless it doesn’t actually matter. I don’t owe you a link. If you want it I told you how to get it.

What I wanted to say is:

If all you have to say "you can google it" then maybe consider being silent.

Nah I’m ok. Thanks for the advice though!

You're willingly confirming something you rate as sensitive, trying to bring more credibility to it by being an extra shout and referencing a virtually unverifiable needle in a haystack 'authority' as Google, but find the sensitivity a reason for not sharing your information.

How can you reason like this?

See, here I searched for it in the internet, the earth is flat: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=the+earth+is+flat&ia=news

Even The Guardian confirms it!

This is a garbage method. You can find everything and the opposite too by searching for it on the internet.

I’m not trying to have a debate or prove anything. I’m also not trying for find the most accurate ‘method’ fuck off with their Reddit debatelord shit.

Or, you could just shut up and not say "just google it" anymore. I think that's the real solution.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Just google it.

I can also google that the earth is flat
