You are seem to disagree with yourself... On the one hand you say I should ask them to make a case for their argument, but on the other I'm not allowed to ask for evidence.

But instead I need to provide a proof for... them not providing proof that their argument is not a non-sequitur? Did I get that right?

You did not, points for effort though.

I'll try to make it simpler.

Ask for proof of claim they have made - YES ๐Ÿ‘

Ask for proof to dispute/disprove claim you have made - NO ๐Ÿ‘Ž

if you suggest something is a fallacy , that's a claim you have made.
