Why I Don't Argue on The Internet or With Fools
Never argue with a fool; onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.- Mark Twain
Arguing on the internet is the most pointless thing. Despite being a sole admin of various internet groups, cycling through various identities, platforms, I never engaged into "debates" on the internet. Not to mention that majority of "debates" on the internet aren't even debates.
Whenever someone tries to debate with me, I end it by saying,Lmao, I am not debating that,
Nice baitor just by simply laughing at them for being way too excited, interested to change an internet's strangers opinion on internet, prove them wrong.
If they still do not stop, I do not hesitate much before blocking them. Blocking is both a self-care and a means of punishment. Back when I was sole admin of groups, I could not block anyone as it would let them bypass moderation. But now I have no such issue.
I do not write autobiographies, memoirs, or tell people much about my past achievements. I just let people see my present achievements and make-up rest themselves. Because I strongly believe in Achievements Speak Louder Than Words, and that present achievements are a good representative of past achievements. Another reason being that I dislike trauma dumping or acting like a victim.
I apply this advice everywhere in my life, not just on internet. Not only it has saved me a lot of stress, but most important thing is that it saves me time too.
