If you like to discuss in circles and live in a paradox, then by all means embrace the pointlessness of Cartesian circles.
Here is how discussions should always go then: we cannot know anything, so don't try and claim to know anything.
What is the point then in having any discussion about anything ever under this pretense? Furthermore, what is the point then in even living if you doubt the significance of everything including your very own existance?

If you are saying that we are reacting negatively because the criticism being offered is true and we simply don't like it, then I must point to you that you're ignoring my argument. In order to offer a reason to doubt ourselves or our own reasoning, we ought to be offered some substantial criticism or objective reason to believe that what we are saying is wrong, etc.
What do you think...?
