I said because they got the vax they were going to keep getting Covid over and over until it killed them but people with natural immunity are done with it. They said prove it show me the science and I said no, you prove me wrong. They broke out their phone and all they could find were reports of people who are vaxxed getting Covid multiple times while not finding anything at all reported about people with antibodies. Their response after about 3 minutes of searching was “if you’re fucking right that’s fucked up” they woke up when they had to do the research.

Though it worked in your case, "no, you prove me wrong" is bad-faith arguing if you have only presented opinions, which appears to be the case here. Had you backed up your opinion with supporting data along with it first, it would make sense to go that prove-me-wrong route. But that isn't the story you wrote.
I'm glad it worked out for you in this case though since it helped open someone else's eyes in the process.
These blue fucks get to make unsupported assertions all day and demand we prove them wrong. Turn their rules around on them!
I get what you're saying however I prefer to act more like me and less like them.
Sure! If it works for you, then thats the approach you hammer. However, turning their tactics on them works for others, and we need all fronts in this war.
Just because I don't live your philosophy doesn't mean I disagree with it, fren.
I showed them this article https://americanconservativemovement.com/2021/09/10/fully-vaccinated-daily-wire-reporter-gets-covid-for-the-third-time/
You showed them an article that you based your opinion on then told them to prove you wrong.
Please read back over what my comment is saying.
You are correct, but we were having a debate in which his arguments were opinion as well, we were both rattling off anecdotal evidences to which I was always expected to disprove. Unless it’s reported by the cdc nothing seems to stick and we know the cdc is not playing fair to out it mildly. I guess the bigger point I was making was that I had what felt like a win by reversing the argument. They understood for a moment what it was like.
Yeah, prove me wrong is generally not the way to go, but in your case he took the bait, so no foul. Good work.
The burden of proof rests squarely on the shoulders of the claimant, which is this particular case was OP. Shifting of the burden on proof is like logical fallacy 101 but honestly if it made the other guy FEEL like he lost then I say "fuck it" Good on OP.
