    The claim was it caused trauma. That is something that is evidence-based. You are changing the subject.

      I’m sorry, you can’t have experienced trauma unless you’ve had someone clinically analyze and diagnose you?

      What kind of absurd bar is this?

        Can’t? No. Has? Let’s see some evidence.

        You can claim that seeing people in red hats causes trauma. Without evidence, it’s just a claim.

          People are replying and reporting trauma, you are saying you don’t believe them, that its not good enough. Besides the fact its absurd that you think psychology or sociology is even close to solving or understanding nearly any of the topics we are talking about.

          When it comes to psychology, self reports are evidence, and you disagreeing with that doesn’t change anything.

            One person claimed trauma specifically because I said to find me someone who had trauma because of it. No one else made any such claim.

            There is simply no evidence that this is a traumatic experience not matter how much you desperately want it to be.
