If you don't argue with someone then you don't like them. You claim that people aren't curious to learn, but how many of them feel a strong urge to walk away when their beliefs are criticized? Many people wish they weren't curious to learn, but the fact is that humans are naturally very critical and mindful.

I didn’t claim that people aren’t curious to learn.
A lot of people argue to defend their beliefs because they hold them so strongly that they become a part of their identity. So attacking their beliefs will feel like an attack on them. They argue, not out of curiosity, but, to protect their beliefs. That is not critical and mindful.
You suggested "if you notice they aren't curious to learn then its best to let reality teach them." How am I supposed to interpret this?
Why would they give a shit what someone thinks about their beliefs if they aren't criticial or mindful? Sure their strongly held beliefs are part of their identity, but why would they care what some idiot like you or me thinks about their identity if other people's thoughts and beliefs weren't inherently valuable to them as a human being?
When someone argues with you, you should see it as a virtue and a compliment, no matter how crude or rude they are. That's what I do.
