Arguing for the sake of arguing is occurring too much in so-called intellectual conversations. Colloquially, it is the art of bullshitting. The ability to disagree adeptly is a favorable trait that we aim for. But this bullshit is clouding our openness and comprehension of the world—for we become too busy trying to prove a point that we neither know nor care much about; so much so that we don’t try to digest the insight of another.
It just doesn’t make sense—why bullshit? You just come out smelling like shit in the end.
