You mean the group you cant bring around to your point of view ?

No I mean the group that continually asserts that no evidence or counter evidence exists right after it's provided. I can take that as trolling but the possibility of willful blindness still exists so I don't want to jump to that conclusion.

Evidential criteria can be subjective.

How I love the 'polite trolls', of which quite a few have joined in this thread.

It would appeal to them though, heh.

Well since you're also posting on this thread, that first statement may be true.

Of course not every statement is trolling. Sometimes some people are not intelligent enough or intellectually honest or consistent enough so they call things they dislike trolling. Speaking in general terms here.

Sad but true. Having strong opinions about something you demonstrably don't know much about is problematic. Also just a general comment.
