Frustration

I've been frustrated lately. Mostly, regarding the propensity of angry flame-warring that usurps the internet.

Today, I read this comment:

The trouble with rational discourse in these situations is that a) there's nothing rational about your opponent's position, so there will be no real discussion, and b) attempts at rational discussion legitimizes their position far more than is warranted. [source]

Food for thought.
