Thread: Argumentation Is Pointless

There's never really a need to argue. You can just simply state your view. Listen to other people's views and either pass them by or use them as tools for exploring the world of ideas and building better views. No argumentation is necessary, it only serves as, as the OP states, primitive fighting through words.

There is definitely a part of people that does not like to be wrong, and will keep trying to argue even when their position doesn't make sense. People usually accept things that reinforce their beliefs and fight things that go against their beliefs.

The problem with the main point, is you are assuming all argumentation is the same and for the same reason. There is no reason to believe that at all.
