This reminds me of a time in COVID-health response when certain scientists said their evidence was real evidence and yours was not.

"There's no evidence to prove xyz" then they would say, as your evidence was never as rigorous as theirs. And since they were proclaimed to be the only authorized scientists in the room, by authority of big governing bodies, they were right.

So people will see whatever evidence they want, and whine and complain to dig into their side as tribalistic creatures.
