one of the most corrosive habits of online dunk culture is making it imperative that everyone be correct at all times and making it harder to be like "oh shit i didn't know that" and then change your mind, which is something that is normal, healthy, and good, imo.
its perfectly okay to change your position on something when you receive new information

Daily White American Vernacular English (WAVE): "Steady there, pal"

Usage: Denotes that someone is coming close to being a danger to themselves or others. It further requests them to correct it. Like many other WAVE colloquialisms, 'pal' is often a euphemism used to depersonalize the recipient.

A reminder: the inventors of the intelligence scale that we call “IQ tests” never intended for them to become measures of “intelligence” and actively criticized researchers who used it that way. White supremacists, from the beginning, latched onto IQ tests as an excuse for their atrocities
