It doesn't really matter the topic, but I'll usually say "oh, okay. i disagree, but it sounds like you've thought a lot about it"
Most people just want to use other people's ears as thought-puke buckets
Oh isn't that the truth. It reminds me of a discussion I had with some friends about mental bulimia. Consuming information and puking it out to people without consideration. You see this with political "discussions" with most people. Another term for this is Rand's "second-handers".

I’m done overtly orange pilling.
I found the soft sell works way better.
