I like friend and foe far more than engage and ignore. A foe isnt someone you ignore. Ignoring is what builds bubbles. A foe can often be right even if you disagree.

A foe is also someone you might preemptively punch in the face if they get too close before you could determine if they actually meant you harm right then.

I'd prefer not to label things such that I'm justifying the label's negative potential by the disproportionately small "even if" range of positive ones.

People I want to ignore I usually disagree with as well, but that's not the problem: the problem is they are repetitive and boring.

I sure hope the disagreement to ignore ven diagram doesnt look like that. If u never engage, how will you ever know you were wrong about something repetitive and boring?

Which is not at all what I wrote.

Most things are interesting if you look deeply into them. People on the other hand can be repetitive and boring about them. Which would extend to the excessive use of meta-argument: complaining people aren't listening but also not actually saying anything of substance.
