Not for some obnoxious self righteous know-it-alls to demand facts and links that are simply what they choose to believe. If you were actually an intelligent person you would realize that you know nothing Socrates - The only true wisdom is in knowing you know....
So take that “fact” and shove it where the sun doesn’t shine.

Now maybe they will delete my account!
That is pretty simplistic.

You suggest that the loudest, biggest mouth, best actor, no matter if what he or she says is incorrect or untrue, who should be listened to. Those who differ, but supply credible facts to support, are to be ignored.

In my life, never in any intelligent discussion among adults was the presentation of factual information frowned upon, or generated such anger.

Actually your quote from Socrates refers to being humble and being aware you know nothing, i.e. Be aware you can learn facts.

Perhaps my education and experience is questionable because, investigation of facts to learn, and listening and reading to learn was the essence of everyone and everything.
