I don’t waste a lot of time arguing basic science and engineeering with people, because I know that really most are actually arguing from a political position. Team sports. It’s their lens for everything. If their team likes A, they like A. If it hates B, they hate B. They’ll pretend they’re ’doing their own research’ etc. It’s all bullshit, they’re just shopping for whatever they can find that backs up the team line. If you disagree with them, their only thought is ‘he’s a supporter of the other team’. The fact you don’t have any team won’t compute with them. High school behaviour, defending your group. We never leave.
