How do you "lose" arguments with your dad? Is it that he just says, "I'm not convinced" and that's that? Personally, I'm not sure if most arguments are "won" or "lost". Right or wrong, it's really who has the bigger guns that matters.
I just wish leftists and right-wingers would stop bickering online in their bullshit blogs/message boards and just fight it out to the death - it's what they really wanna do anyway since they'll never agree on anything and they hate each other so much. Then the arguments would be settled and we'd go back to living our lives.
Nah, we both have a way of knowing whose point makes more sense, or is more ethical, etc. There's only really been one time where I've made him step back and rethink what he thought and realize what I was saying was true. Most of the other times, he convinces me of the other sides valididty.
I've learned that arguing with people who are hard core republicans arn't going to believe what I say pretty much no matter what. there are no longer hard facts. If it supports one side and not the other the other side will just say that the group who presented the facts is wrong, or the study was flawed, or that they are in the pockets of the other side and it will all be written off.
American politics are all about glitz and glamour and I've just about given up. Without convincing the public to do a massive march and I'm talking a couple of million people in washington at least this country is slowly sinking down the drain.
while it would be fun to debate with your dad, and maybe I will, it won't upset the balance of bs, lies, and decptions in the system.
