No, it's not hard to spoon feed someone information but I didn't think I had to. Fuck, everyone is just the give it to me now, I don't want to have to look into anything. People just take photos at face value and make judgment calls without even the most topical vetting. God this is depressing.
Close, it proves it did happen, which only proves it did happen once, that's it. It does not, in any way at all, ever, by any form of logic mean it still DOES happen. You can infer that, but that is not what it proves, at all.
A single data point by itself can easily be classified as an anomaly, meaning not normal. Without context you can't determine if it's the rule or the exception, only that it happened once. It could be a 1 trillion to 1 chance and it just happened to be that picture. We have no idea, it means nothing. Trying to act like it does is nothing short of using an unreliable data point (anecdote) to push a narrative.
