is not accusing you of being part of a plot. You are making claims not about yourself but what the majority of Americans believe. For that to be credible, it needs to be supported with evidence. You make these sorts of claims all the time, and I have never seen you once site a poll or data of any kind to support your assertions. If you actually care about winning, that means looking beyond yourself. If you don't have evidence or can't be bothered to provide any, don't claim you know what the majority of Americans believe.
I'm sorry you feel that asking for evidence is a personal attack. I've spent my entire adult life working in higher education, so that response is foreign to me. Evidence is essential to establishing facts or even constructing a narrative. No one's word is absolute. I take your defensive deflection to mean you have no evidence, which makes your point void.
