Yes. People get upset by my long posts, but this is what happens when a person doesn’t have the energy or time for that. Even I will sometimes pass a comment thread untouched because at that moment I’m too mentally exhausted to reply. She doesn’t want to debate Conner not because he is right- but because he’s already shown how that debate will go. It will be long. She will show him the faults in his logic or how grabbing random statistics without context doesn’t prove a point. She will contextualize what he’s said, research and bring her own statistics. Paint a picture that shows that men DO have problems but- and extreme example to show the point, not a comparison of men and slave owners- slave owners had problems too- does that prove they didn’t have privilege? And after all that and several go rounds Connor just won’t likely budge. He may even dig in deeper because ego won’t let him feel wrong about something core to his beliefs and world view.

lol. I seldom get upset. But sometimes I have so much going on in my life or am so overwhelmed with things in a moment that I am passing a post that I would comment on, and I just start to type and stop and move on. Wether it’s often even constructive to debate or comment on the Internet is itself debatable, but if no one ever speaks, discusses, shares their views- there is only a vacuum. An idea alone in a vacuum is the de facto standard. So at least one can try to bring some balance to things wether that is worthwhile or not, so long as you’re enjoying it it’s a wash. When it doesn’t seem prudent or enjoyable it’s a pass.
