Some reasons I still argue over the internet

- To convince myself. Sometimes I start writing and convince myself I’m wrong. Other times I just move to a more specific opinion or find a stronger justification

- Because sometimes a responder does convince me to change my opinion. Or they provide some interesting related information I didn't know before

- To be a voice of reason in comments mostly by people dumb enough to feel their surface-level opinion is still worth posting. Although obviously I’m only a voice of reason to those who share my opinions, sometimes even I recognize I’m again restating an obvious observation

- To get better at writing and arguing in case one day it does really matter

- Because I’m bored and have nothing better to do. At least it’s more productive than YouTube
