What kind of social engineering did this guy do to get a wikipedia page and a whole "law" after his name so people can quote it forever.

We've had proverbs for millennia about this. But no, let's use a silly Italian name to make it sound academic or something.

You’ll need to spend order of magnitude more energy refuting this page to make a difference here I’m afraid

No social engineering was needed I suppose. This image: https://truth-sandwich.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/ziobra... done the rounds on social media for a while and someone mustered up the courage to create a Wikipedia article about it. It's basically an Internet meme, not really a law. I use the image sometimes in heated debates where two people throw peer reviewed academic 'links' at each other for hours to prove their point(s).

Please share a few of those proverbs, possibly some with nice anglo-saxon words in them, least we get overwhelmed by too much latinate pomposity

My favorite:

> “Apparently people don't like the truth, but I do like it; I like it because it upsets a lot of people. If you show them enough times that their arguments are bullshit, then maybe just once, one of them will say, 'Oh! Wait a minute - I was wrong.' I live for that happening. Rare, I assure you” ― Lemmy Kilmister
