The reason I brought the names thing into it was because chardmonster kept asking for "evidence". She never made it clear that she just wanted a little anecdote and then she would have believed it, she literally wanted proof. And call me stupid, but an anon telling a story on the internet isn't exactly what I, personally, would count as "evidence" for anything, so I really never even thought about it. In my eyes, the fact that she demanded evidence for the original statement was reason enough for me to assume she didn't believe me from the start, because why else would she ask for that?

Oh for fuck's sake. What the hell am I going to get on a message board besides an anecdote? Did you expect me to demand names and scanned documents so I can factcheck you?

And call me stupid,

Okay.

but an anon telling a story on the internet isn't exactly what I, personally, would count as "evidence" for anything, so I really never even thought about it.

You realize we're on a message board and you're not writing a paper for class, right?

In my eyes, the fact that she demanded evidence for the original statement was reason enough for me to assume she didn't believe me from the start, because why else would she ask for that?

Because you're saying your grandfathers fought for Germany in WWII but weren't Nazi supporters, which is interesting and I was wondering if you had anything to back that up--like, say, political leanings (communists, social democrats), religion (were they catholics angry about nazi meddling in church schools?), et cetera?

But no, you failed all over yourself at the sheer AUDACITY of people asking a simple question about your grandparents, who fought in the German army in World War II, which did some pretty fucked up things even if they were drafted.

I'm going to guess you've got nothing. Which is fine. You could have just said "that's just what they always said" and I might've just made a comment about German politics in the 1920s/early 1930s and how interesting it is.

Well, what other evidence other than anecdotal did you think she could possibly want? It's the only evidence you can give on a comm on the internet.

Of course you could be lying about the anecdotes - so could I. We could both be lying about having German grandfathers, for all anyone knows. But surely you see why "I know that my grandfather wasn't a Nazi because when he was [anecdote]" is more believable than "I know that my grandfather wasn't a Nazi BUT I WON'T TELL YOU WHY BECAUSE YOU WON'T BELIEVE ME ANYWAY!!!!!11!"?
