I appreciate that. I some times find myself going back and forth with people for no reason. I know I don't know everything, just what I read and see. No one on the internet will get to me.

Arguing with cranks on the internet is useless, if your only goal is to change anyone's mind but your own.

On the other hand, if you do it correctly, it helps you sharpen your own skills at research and in debate tactics. When you get good at it, you have a better chance of changing the views of people who are not already locked into a point of view.
