Well, try telling them abortion is murder and see what happens, but there is no way to settle that argument. With climate change, they appeal to peer-reviewed research which supposedly settles it. When I cite the peer-reviewed research that says peer-reviewed research is wrong, then they get their panties in a knot, but still don't call me stupid. Conservatives begin each sentence with how stupid I am for not seeing how stupid a min wage is.
One group has an argument (1000s of scientists say so).
The other group has no argument, so insult is their only recourse.
Perhaps when liberals have no argument (abortion is murder), maybe they also insult. Idk, I don't argue abortion because there is no obvious solution. I like problems that have solutions.
And I'm not sure why you have it out for old people, young people are just as likely to fly off the handle, they haven't learned how to control their anger, and they're also far more prone to violence than old people.
Maybe hotheaded young people don't get online and maybe levelheaded old people don't get online, idk, but I can tell someone's generation by their propensity to insult. Compare yourself to Jakob and see my point.
