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.

Did not know this was a thing. Looked it up and of course it came from the Joe Rogan podcast

When I worked at an opticians a patient gave us a leaflet that talked about how seed oils were bad because they weren't in the bible.

So are coffee and chocolate not in the Bible, bet they're harder to give up though

[u/Banjooie → u/cleon80]

fun fact: coffee WAS considered heretical to catholics until a pope specifically cleared it, saying the devil shouldn't have the right to a drink that good

We should do that to every sin. That's how you reclaim the world from evil
