    This is a good way to create echo-chambers. But hey it is good advice when used with nuance.

      It’s difficult to check whether the person you’re arguing is doing it in bad faith or because they’re really engaging in discussion with you.

        Actually you DO NEED to engage in a few bouts to assess how miserable they are to decide whether it’s worth it to continue a conversation.

        Otherwise you’re just another wannabe despot (like Trump) who likes to listen to themselves & thinks the world revolves around them.
