    zero experience

You're right, I've never had unpleasant encounters with fraternities. This is just a lack of fit with my existing world view. I mean, you would know, right? You were there, yeah? I was one of many trying to get them to stop having a "ghetto party" on Halloween. Fun protest. Best part was where some guy in a tank-top spit at me. That wasn't you, was it?

But you're right. You have experience with both of these things (you were probably tank-top guy), I guess, so that makes you right.

Also, please stop naming fallacies like they're trap-cards from Yu-Gi-Oh. I mean, here ya go since you get such a hard on for them. Cognitive bias is just a term you learned in Psych 1000. Just claiming that I have that bias doesn't mean that:

A: you don't have it

and/or

B: you know what you're talking about.

Gonna go with "and" in this instance.

I can just as easily claim that you have the same cognitive bias but on a different basis.

Congratulations, now we've gotten nowhere.
