When you ask a question as a response to an argument, you're trying to make your opponent reveal more about his position so you can find some weakness to exploit. You're not curious about changing your own mind, so it's disingenuous.

People IRL who spend all day on farcebook, twitter, etc. do this. They pull this "gotcha" bullshit in every conversation, trying to catch you in a generalization or some minuscule detail so they can "win." They think coversation is a damn battle that can be lost or won. It's tiring, and the number of Nostr users doing it is increasing. Keep Nostr hard, keep Nostr small.

Always here for a question. What does it mean?

Questions are the better path to enlightenment, I guess. Which is in itself a statement that makes the whole thing a little ironic. But it's what I tell my kid. Use question marks until you get things figured out a bit more.

Insta-mute for those accounts.

There’s people IRL who do this too. Insta mute them as well

Just turn around and walk away 😂

Totally agree with this!

I liked your comment because I thought you were doing it but now you're agreeing it's a bad thing

It's called a rhetorical question, this is just a bunch of anti-intellectual bullshit

People are allowed to argue
