Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps you get a negative response because you’re saying something that others find offensive or nonsensical? And that maybe you don’t want to argue or substantiate your beliefs because you can’t? And instead of questioning or abandoning such beliefs, you conclude that there is something wrong with the people who reacted negatively, or feign so in order to maintain your beliefs without having to scrutinize them?
Well in your case, you can’t say things like how you are skeptical of viruses and space, and expect someone to have a meaningful conversation with you about them.
My sense is that people like this are happy with things as they are, for whatever reasons, so try to evade, confuse or otherwise stall genuine exchange which could lead to change.
We’re not discussing outer space or viruses.
I can have a meaningful conversation with anyone who’s willing to, even if I disagree.
and i don't care about politics, so why would i want to delve into them?
I've found that I cannot have clear coherent discussions with you. It has nothing to do with disagreeing or not. Feel free to blame me for it, I don't really care, but that is why I opt out of getting into anything deeper with you than I have in the past. Maybe it's time you make some new friends?
Well, that explains why you spend 20 hours a day circle jerking with him.
Makes sense
I don't want to blame it on you, but when I'm not clear about something you say, I asked questions. And that usually doesn't go anywhere, which I believe is because you constantly evade inquiries which highlight your errors in logic and/or biases. I don't think you've ever made an attempt to demonstrate in a logical and articulate manner how I might be wrong about something. I actually welcome — no, crave — genuine and intelligent intellectual challenge. But to your point, I probably am not going to find it on a guitar forum arguing with the HVAC guy.
