I'm sorry that you don't appreciate my "position" of "not arguing with your opinion, because you never asked anyone to help you change your opinion, and because you don't seem interested in changing it anyways if someone tried".

It sounds like you just want to fight rather than understand why different people have different views. Even after someone politely tells you that your opinions are common and your conclusions are reasonable given those opinions, you're still trying to find something to fight them on.

I'm more interested in the latter (understanding) than the former (fighting), so I'll pass, but luckily you'll have no trouble finding someone else on the internet who just wants to fight and doesn't seek understanding.

Yeah, this is definitely the conduct of someone who's "just trying to understand": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44582005

I'm leaving this conversation. Go sealion [1] someone else.

		> Yeah, this is definitely the conduct of someone who's [interested in more understanding over more fighting]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44582005 Yep, I agree with you that it is! Note that I fixed your "translation" of my quote here, which I'm sure was just an honest mistake on your part. You see, I realize that you have different opinions than me and others, but that's no reason for you to be rude and disrespectful to others on HN. Your link there is a good example of how to behave instead. That said, I already told you I'm not interested in a fight about opinions with someone who isn't interested in changing theirs, so if you're leaving because I didn't provide you with such a fight... bye?
