"But let’s make it our job as a society to encourage each other to find
replicable and falsifiable evidence to support our views, and to
logically argue our positions. In the process, please stop saying 'because, science' to justify your argument, and using 'FACT' as a
preface to your statements. These are just the grown-up versions of 'because I said so.' We need to remind each other to stay on our toes
and to actually backup our claims."
