Friendly debates can be a healthy thing. Angry, heated, bitter arguments? Yeah, I'd argue they aren't too great for your mental health.
When the usual response to lets say... climate change, is nothing more than shouting how u r a commie (which yes, i am one), spreading goverment lies, and how the vaccines r gonna give their child autism....
I just don't waste my energy in something so futile, its their religion. And a confrontation about BELIEFS (at least for them) is gonna end up no where.
So yeah, its just understanding how sometimes its better to only see them with disgust and walk away.
Maybe u r right, im gonna try to be friends next time i see a white supremacist, its not like that kind of ideologies can and already have taken lives.
Edit to add pizzagate since theres dead pleople thx to that stupidity, and antivaxxers in general since not only they kill themselfs, but also anyone around them, especially their kids, etc, etc, etc. Even those Th3 EaRtH 1S fiAt DuD3 have been killing themselfs.
