There is being skeptical and then there is baseless, conspiratorial cynicism -- the kind that usually makes you hurt yourself.

And there's shaming people for having a different opinion than the majority.

Opinions do not gain credence just because you hold them and they do not gain credence or viability just because they're contrarian. No one is shaming it by the fact that it's a minority opinion, it's just a baseless silly opinion to have.

Don't be disingenuous.

> it's just a baseless silly opinion to have.

Sounds like shaming to me.

No it doesn't, and it's still wouldn't be shaming for the reason you outlined. Your entire statement is pointless if you have to crawl all the way back to a single verb to make it relevant.

Your comment is ridiculously over the top. Not sure why you are getting so emotional about a nicely packaged bunch of observational studies.
