Ah yes. Your tiny sample size.

From a disabled person. Fuck off. COVID sucked and continues to affect me.

You don't know my sample size. I promise it's much bigger than your twitter samples.

Twitter. The heck makes you think I use Twitter. 😹 Try again. Asshole.

tiny sample size. The heck makes you think I have a tiny sample size. 😹 Try again. Asshole.

This conversation is incredibly stupid and tedious. I will continue to reflect the quality of the posts you send me.

I feel sorry for your patients who have you as their caregiver.

They love me because it's my job to help them reach acceptance.

Oh sweetheart. Unless you account for a heck of a lot of people. Hundreds to thousands isn't a very large sample size when you take into account the amount of people with disabilities there is in the world. And you also have to account for figures of people with undiagnosed disabilities too.

So yes. Your sample size is akin to your IQ.
Low.

My sample size is larger than most studies you could cite.

You keep saying you have a large sample size but you won't say how large. Why should anyone believe you?

I don't care if you believe me.

Then why are you bothering?

If you look back, the people addressing me have been arguing about why I shouldn't believe my sources, and they're using nothing but degrading insults and authoritarian arguments to try to sway me. My responses have all been appropriate. Nobody has asked for clarification or explanation. They just read my claims and reacted with their own narcissistic responses. I don't care if you all remain ignorant of the truth.

"I have a huge sample size but I'm not even going to say how large" is not an appropriate response.

Allow me to rephrase for people like you. "I am confident in my research and experience, and I have no desire to explain years of work to the willfully ignorant."

All kinds of people are confident despite being very wrong. Confidence is not a substitute for evidence. Neither is insulting people.
