"What can be told without evidence can be dismissed without evidence"

Until they back their claims with evidence open to the scientific community and press, that's just smokescreen and diversion. The are more important things to care about right now.

Thing is, these days they can fake just about any so called evidence so I don't trust anything they say,

That's why I told about scientific community and press, it's kinda their jobs to find lies.

Life without trusting anything/anyone seems hard to live.

Most people dismiss scientists they don't understand but they believe basement dwellers who hate the same people they do.

As a person that has PTSD and has been fucked over by a lot of people... It's very hard to live and exist. Extremely hard.

Not op.
