    Thanks ❤️

    In any case, all this is very little proof that the story is a falsehood. Obviously, by default everything you read online falls to the category “this may have happened”, but that’s all we really have.

        Yup, because the burden of proof is on the one who made the claim. But that only allows us to say the text is not necessarily true.

        When you say the op is lying, that’s a new claim, where the burden of proof is on you.

            …although, because selling a house ASAP if you have a loan with large payments for it, is the only logical course of action if long-term unemployment is assumed, nothing to that extent has been demonstrated.

                  ok…so why do I need to repeat myself…? You’re literally advocating against the thing you’re asking me to do.

                  Let’s also cut the bullshit and not pretend like you already knew that. You came up with this as a clever quip after you realized I’ve already talked about it. Can we please stop it with the childish games? Make your point or fuck off.

                    Uh, then I am sorry for the misunderstanding.

                    I have been trying to convince you that you should find some argument that actually holds water, or stop playing that your argument is sound.

                    In any case, you asked me to make my point, so here goes: Nothing in the post gives you enough data to claim that it’s a lie. You can say that the claim sounds implausible to you, but you cannot outright tell that it’s a falsehood, unless there is a reason to think so. And you say the reason to think so is that someone was doing the only logical thing, and you say – for whatever reason – that it’s extremely rare to do the most logical thing in such a situation.

                    It’s funny how you keep dodging everything I say :)
