What was it about and what made you argue for so long? Did you win, did it conclude in anyway?

    Don’t know, honestly, but what I do know is that if an argument on the internet lasts more than a couple replies neither party is “winning” in the end, if winning means convincing the other party.

      I think the point of these hopeless internet arguments mainly becomes to convince the third parties who read them.

        Yep, that’s why I stick with some arguments, but realizing when there’s nothing to be gained is important as well.
