Me after I appointed 3 Supreme Court justices

Not really true. I was a peer reviewer for a prominent journal in my field. I had no idea who the authors of the majority of the articles I reviewed were. The authors also never knew my identity.

Yea, are you one of my good friends peer reviewer #1, peer reviewer #2, or peer reviewer #3?

I dunno if there's a confined walls version of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum is, but it feels much of internet discourse operates this way.

When your camp = "Everyone" while having zero realisation you're just in a small camp.

Red vs Blue with no acknowledgement of other colours on the visual spectrum, let alone those beyond that. If it's not blue, it must be red, and everyone in my world is blue, so everything not blue is wrong.

Edit: In before someone ironically makes a comment associating the analogy with US political party colours or something. Didn't even think about that, but in before. If you went there, check yoself.

It's ok, I checked myself by asking the person in my life most likely to agree with me. We've agreed the association with red vs blue politics in the US is your responsibility for making an analogy that could be easily construed that way, not ours for fitting what you said into the context of current cultural norms. Therefore in conclusion: everyone thinks you messed up with that analogy.

(side note, I might have fudged the data a little and just made up that I checked with anyone else)
