Plenty of people initially responded with sources and thought out texts. You got negativity when you decided to ignore those, act as if you had not received them and then solely engage with low effort dunks like mine own. You are not owed respect, you earn it by being respectful
It's so funny. Then they go back to their dens and complain that users here are too aggressive to have a polite discussion.
You really nailed the button about how last step is trying to save face by being polite to someone. Happens every time, and some users here even fall for it lol.
I hate their attitudes about how discussions should go (when they are the one with a heterodox view of course).
Just the fucking ego in insisting ones uneducated view on something should be treated as valid as the mountains of research others have done. Never mind that their "opinion" is often just completely false. It'd be like barging in to a forum for environmentalists and then insisting you should have a discussion about climate change. And of course they never just say that's what they want, instead they post some dumb meme and act glib.
I should make a lib debatebro flowchart
