Thinking it over… Is it that the statement seems to be implying that I have no reason to learn their reasons except to satisfy an idle curiosity?
To me it looks a bit as if it’s not asking “what is the evidence for X?”, but “what is wrong with you that makes you think X?”
Literally, it doesn’t mean that, but your interpretation almost feels like an established idiom to me. Anyone else have the same feeling?
Add a glib, condescending, and dismissive sneer for full effect.
