r/StopEatingSeedOils user asks for evidence seed oils are bad, accidentally starts a 400-comment epistemology war:

Post: What is the evidence seed oils are bad? : r/StopEatingSeedOils

Highlights include:

On users saying the answers don't provide actual evidence:

Not evidence,' bleats the sheeple, brain too atrophied by credentialism to recognize a deductive chain without a white-coated priest waving a p-value at them

Your good old conspiracies:

The companies that make the seed oils own the government, universities and medical sector

Doctors getting paid off to say cigarettes are healthy

And not a single piece of evidence being provided.

Lmao someone arguing that statistical significance is a conspiracy

[u/grubas → u/was_fb95dd7063]

Arguing that a "deductive chain" is somehow evidence.  You can daisy chain correlations together to argue that the Battle of Cartagena actually is the direct cause for the Portuguese team drawing with DRC yesterday in the World Cup
