I don’t doubt you, care to share your references?

Just to flip this, do you have any sources that horseshoe theory is a real thing? That's the funny thing about language, someone put Theory in the name and now people think it's a real thing.

To save you the trouble, it hasn't held up under academic study. Plenty of info on Wikipedia about it.

I don’t doubt you; do you have a source that says it hasn’t stood up to academic study?

I don’t believe in horseshoe theory, I don’t even know what it is. I can’t give you a source that it’s real.

My original comment was more a joke than anything.
