    So it doesn’t actually work well when you say that the claim without source was debunked… And you also don’t provide source.

    Whatchoo talking about, bro?

      The meme itself is not even a source.

      Like, me saying I had lunch with sasquatch is not something someone needs to rigorously debunk.

        I mean I get what you’re saying but… One is a hairy apeman people claim to see in the woods, the other is companies doing something unethical and shady to improve their bottom line which there is absolutely precedent for.

        Yeah it’s unlikely this story is real but your analogy makes no sense

          Both are things people will believe without evidence because they want to believe it.

          A hairy ape man in the woods is cool. Shitting on businesses is cool.

      It’s a fucking meme, of course it doesn’t have a source. No one in their right mind would trust this as fact anyway.

        No one is claiming a meme needs a source. That reply said it was fake. Maybe true, but again provide a link if it is.
