I don't waste my time debating issues we don't have any control over with people who don't have any control over the issues they are debating over.

But you will debate debates, so you must feel that we have some control over debates, or at least the concept of debating itself?

My main area of concern at the moment is pondering which gender debates mostly self-identify as... And also which area of the political compass they find themselves drawn towards. At what point do debates reach this level of self awareness and, to what extent do the debaters involved in each debate influence the overall personality of the inconclusion?

I have an opinion, it's worth the same as every other poster on here it's worth nothing.

So a sort of debating nihilism, then? People just butting heads for the sake of it... Or maybe for sport? But then, is doing something for sport necessarily worth nothing? From a nihilists perspective, isn't entertainment, whilst still meaningless, in fact worth everything to the individual?

Considering most debates end in, infractions for insulting someone else's opinion because it's not the same as your opinion on a subject in wich no ones opinion means anything, I say it's like poking yourself in the eye over and over.

But...general conversation in life wouldn't happen if we all thought like this If you could only talk about things you personally have control over...the list is pretty short for most people. Unless we have Theresa May or something posting on here...

Weathers nice isn't it?
I have no influence over the weather so cannot possibly comment.

I debated the weather with my 4 year old daughter this morning. Got pretty heated tbh. She was convinced that frost was snow and thought I was just being mean for saying she could not build a snowman

I was late for hospital and she was singing the frozen song whilst randomly stopping to yell 'snowman!!' at me and I just didn't have time When we got back the frost was gone too.

When there is snow, I would bet my left tit that she won't touch it to actually build a snowman as she hates cold things
