I suppose it's just a false appeal to authority anyways.

I'm not going to argue with you - it's one thing to question their opinion or their sources, it's another to call them (even obliquely) a liar and accuse them of "thumping their chest" when they try to defend their reasoning.
Consider this your final warning. If you all can't raise the level of discourse in here and stop acting like 5-year-olds who've had their feelings hurt, I'm gonna lock the thread.
