If you feel you haven’t presented your argument properly, would you go back to discuss it with that person?
minus-squareZwuzelmaus@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 days agoNo. I never feel like I haven’t presented an argument properly. I tell my view of things, and maybe I know that I am right, or maybe not. Then maybe it turns out that I have been right, or maybe not. And maybe people decide to believe me, or maybe not. That’s still their own decision, isn’t it? Usually I let them, except when it’s about some super important stuff.
