You don’t debate for the sake of the person you’re debating with, you debate for the sake of everyone reading/watching it who hasn’t formed an opinion yet
People’s lizard brains will tend to favor the person on the right. Because their arguments are simple, spoken with confidence and often louder. Our primitive instincts interpret that as ‘correct’ because it comes off as strong. The person on the left looks weak and full of excuses.
People aren’t biologically capable of handling modern propaganda well.
Not the reason. It is an attribute it has, but the reason it’s popular is it’s ability to quickly summarize data rather than having to dig through many sources.
By the time I reach a comment section about it yeah. There’s no point debating politics because the other person will always see you as the fox news guy.

Confident bullshit wins over long-winded but factually correct explanations.
Incidentally, same reason chatgpt became so popular - it’s optimized for sounding confident over being correct.

And it does that often wrong but always confident.

That’s just confirmation bias. There are a lot more lurkers than there are commenters or posters.
Both!
A whopping zero people
You’ve formed an opinion on every topic ever? I’m impressed
Probably one of those people who already know everything, and go “by their gut”.
Incidentally, these people have never asked a question.
