Why do people put up posts and then delete comments that have evidence that they are wrong?

How isolated do you have to be that actual proof hurts your ego enough you have to delete it?

"Wrong" is subjective these days, and saying someone is wrong, as if you alone know the truth, is arrogant and delusional.

Maybe people just don't feel like dealing with you.

@SumKindaMunster I try to base my opinions on source material as much as possible but then again it is my opinion of said source material. So I do try to put it through a logic test. Does this really seem plausible or is something not quite right about it? I try do this without involving emotions, which I’ll admit doesn’t always work especially on topics regarding science.

@KaraLuvz Perfect. Well if we ever have a disagreement, I will hold you to those standards, and give you the benefit of the doubt. 👍

@SumKindaMunster I will do my best to live up to those standards

They can't handle anything that doesn't agree with them...

Because most people just want an echo chamber, deep down. They want their views to be validated. They're not interested in a challenge. A challenge to their opinions makes them insecure, especially if they don't know how to address it, so it's better to simply delete it.

i remove anyone who attacks me or another or if the comment is jeering or direspectful. it has nothing to do with ego.

Some refuse to accept they are wrong,others hate people getting the better of them.When the argumentative types are defeated by logic and evidence it is too much for them to handle.

@RogueLoner I agree and I think that is the way it should be because without opposing views you can’t find the solution
