Mmmm I sent two short messages, but sure. I’ll spell it out.

I stated my opinion. Changing your mind on this or defending my viewpoint is just not that important to me.

I’m confident I could discuss and debate it, I know the facts and where my stance lies. I just don’t want to explain it to you. It would be a truly pointless endeavor. I have responsibilities in my life. I don’t want to be the kind of person that argues online for a living. I can’t be.

I know it’s difficult but I hope you can understand.

I see you in every thread, clearly it would benefit neither of us if I engaged you. I simply cannot match your time commitment to this online debate club.

The information on this subject is widely available, and we are now working in the realm of hypothetical. No need to waste any more time for either of us. We are approaching “my dad can beat up your dad - an essay”. I just don’t care anymore.

For the sake of your own ego, I allow you to chalk this up in the “win” category. I think it’s fair. You are the superior lemmy user.
