In science that is called anecdotal evidence and not relying on it is a cardinal rule in science!

When over 90% of the world's scientists agree on something, a smart person will believe them.

I see MAGA use anecdotal evidence all the time.

It's not just MAGA koan.

The pendulum swings as people do not like being lied to. They can only be fooled some of the time.
