I’ve felt this exact feeling before. It feels like trying to discuss algebra with someone who didn’t learn basic addition. If we can’t agree on certain ground rules then discussion is never going to be productive, or will take 3x as long to come to the same conclusion. I feel like it’s willful stubbornness as much it is not understanding. People just google points to support their argument instead of being curious and researching the topic.
