It’s more about challenging hipocricy. The OP boldly claimed that Joe and his guests were spewing misinformation. OP provided no evidence for their claims, nor did they provide specific criticisms. Instead they spread FUD and misinformation of their own.

Really? exactly 3-5% disagree with the majority?

OP made bold and uncited claims amounting to disinformation and I called them out asking for them to back their claims or back down.

I get all of that. None of it changes the fact that asking them if they’d stake their life on it is just downright bizarre.

The idiom of ‘betting’ or ‘staking’ one’s life on a claim is common where I’m from. To clarify, my intent was to call into question a claim by OP and asking OP to back up their claim or stand down.
