Yeah all would be swell if you actually read and considered whatever counter-argument was thrown at you instead of repeatedly parroting the same shit over and over.

Just what it says in your image. If you use fewer assumptions to explain something then it has a better chance to be correct. All it takes is for one assumption out of a bunch to be false and fuck over your explanation.

That said, Occam's Razor kind of mentions the quality of assumptions in an explanation. You can have 3 poorly thought out assumptions to an explanation and 10 well reasoned assumptions to an opposing explanation. It doesn't have to be the case that assumptions are on equal grounds or are equally valid.
