How did the world get so stupid?

It’s true they are nice here compared to other message boards but you guys seem to have serious problems with other people disagreeing with you. I’m currently being blasted off at Great Debates on a thread I posted. Why, becuase everyone there thinks they’re smarter than me and break my posts apart piece by piece to make me look stupid and make them look smart and when everyone’s blasting you it’s hard to keep up especially when it involves politics.

They don’t call it Great Debates without a reason, y’know.

I’m sure there are plenty that don’t do that but after alot of reading on this website the past month or two everyone tries to act smarter than they really are and try to intimidate people with their “brains” and “intelligence” when really you don’t know whether they’re unemployed rednecks in Arkansas or businessman in NYC.

What difference does it make? If they’ve got the cites and the references to back up their claims – and you don’t – then that’s all there is to it. If you want your points to be taken seriously, you’ve got to back 'em up with reliable evidence.

It just proves further that nearly everyone who posts constantly tries to prove someone else wrong.

Now that is just the lamest thing I have read in months. What are you, 12 years old?

Hey, maybe they are smarter than you. You ever think of that? Or maybe they just proved themselves to be better at debates?
