When you are watching a movie and witness characters being stupid in their assumptions about the things that happen around them or/and having different opinions on which basis they have conflicts with eachother. Unlike you (the viewer) who knows exactly what is happening (because all the scenes that director shows to you and things characters can't possibly know about)? When characters "reason" and reach wrong conclusions which is obvious to us as viewers but isn't so for them. So have you ever tried to extrapolate it to real life? Has it ever crossed your mind how stupid people are making baseless uneducated assumptions and what a huge chunk of information about pretty much anything they might be missing? Most frustrating part is that its really hard to efficiently explain it to normal people in a couple of phrases

The joules of energy you had to expend to write this post, the raw seconds spent, were not worth it. It is not worth it for you to so much as think about these people most of the time. If you have more power than they do, go ahead and do as you will, learn and create and accomplish whatever it is you desire. The people you're talking about cannot be convinced of much through words, the bandwidth available to communicate with them and their willingness to listen is all too small. Do something. Or don't. Whatever you do, I'm sure you can get much more value out of your life by not trying to have discourse with those people. Show, don't tell.

Have you even seen an argument take place in lainchan? It's exactly the same. You're seeing people argue on limited information, and each looks completely retarded to an observer who also operates on different (though no less limited) information. Moreover, they are all, without exception, arguing on emotion, and operate under the delusion that they're based on nothing but fAkTs and lOgIcK.

>>635021605 Weird take, if you acknowledge your limited info how can you tell whether someone else is wrong? And no writing style doesn't invalidate content although its highly indicative for bias.
