It sounds like it’s something that’s unfalsifiable in the absence of active disagreement and since it doesn’t fit with your idea of the world you’d rather attack it.
Also called an anecdote, an experience I was sharing with someone else, not to say I have conducted an experiment of scientific rigor and have arrived at this result but to say in my time here I have recognized this trend. Only I don’t speak like that because it’s plenty clear from context. Then you attacked it with your own anecdote. So I think the more interesting question is why it bothered you so much that I often find people engage in politics without useful context.
It wasn’t a claim it was an anecdote, it’s a mismatch in communication expectations and I understand the confusion. I stand by my lived experience and expect it to be treated as nothing more than it is.
That being said you shouldn’t look for rigor in social media or get your facts from there if you treat the comments as you seem to, which is to say expecting scientific rigor that’s bad practice. If I was making such a claim I would link to a primary source but again the is a casual conversation on social media. I think you expectations may be onerous for the medium.
You can isolate people’s reasoning clearly enough.
it sounds like you’re making it up

a claim made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence
I never argued that you couldn’t.
you haven’t argued anything at all. you e made an unsubstantiated claim

I haven’t given any anecdotes. I’m asking you to substantiate your claim
edit: whoops didn’t mean to reply twice thought the first one didn’t post
