      Nah. You made all the wild claims. You don’t get to shift the burden when someone calls you on your bullshit.

      If you won’t, or can’t, that’s fine. I’ll just assume you were full of shit all along and everyone else that reads this will be justified in doing the same.

      TLDR; put up or shut up.
