Trying to argue with conservatives.
All that they’re great at is detouring, distancing, playing down, doubling-tripling down, disassociating, strawmen and more illogical fallacies. They can’t take up an honest debate unless there are rules in place that gives them any outs from being pressed when confronted with questions they can’t give truthful answers to.


amen.
most people don’t get that thinking is a painful process. just like physical exercise.
and hence why most people desperately avoid it at all costs. most human beings aren’t willing to train for a marathon anymore than they are to become expert thinkers.
but they live with a lot of false delusion that they are really good at running/thinking, when they aren’t.
FYI this is also backed up by science. thinking requires more energy and is unpleasant.
not thinking ist pleasant and comforting and our brains very much prefer it, just our bodies prefer being lazy and fat.
