Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

The prices went back down right after the federal government announced a price fixing investigation and a bunch of news coverage came out about how their claims were bogus.

It’s correlational, not causal. There isn’t going to be a definitive source on this

Then you can find it, if you really care.

The harder you look, the more conclusively you prove you're right!

No, what I care about (in this context) is other people making arguments that they can't substantiate. I'm not spending my time trying to substantiate someone else's arguments, I spend enough time doing that for my own.

I have no need to prove that I'm right. Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
