Polybius’s Law

Polybius’s Law states, “Most, if not all opinions stated on the internet, come with an argument.”

Ex. An online statement that something is better, will, more often than not, start controversy in the replies section, or via other means of “rating”. “liking”, or “responding”, to said statement.

It was originally used by YouTube user “Polybius_223_YT” on the comments section of multiple videos, where disagreements are/were present.
