I'm really not sure why your comment got so many downvotes. Kudos to the solid point: question the message.

He cussed at him while claiming sources weren’t valid without providing any info of his own to the contrary.
Overly-aggressive attitude towards information you don’t have the ability to dispute is what we make fun of constantly on here, “using your feelings as a source of facts.”
Atleast that’s why I downvoated him, then linked my post from a week ago specifically talking about the disgusting inbreeding among Muslims, which, is 51+% on average.

Why should scepticism require an explicit ability to dispute? I'm not saying I necessarily disagree with "X" "Y" or "Z" but I am justifying in doubting the face value of info given in a quick flashy articles through politically websites with plausible motive to manipulate opinions.
It is perfectly reasonable to set the height of your own bar for the standard of proof to substantiate conjecture in order to meet your personal satisfaction of the information.
Change my mind.
