Why’s it always this way or that? One way or the other?

I fkn hate arguing. I don’t have issues with confrontation, it’s that not many people listen or speak respectfully and someone is always trying to outdo the other with degradation. It gets nobody anywhere yet some people thrive on it.

I read the Native Americans would congregate and everyone had an uninterrupted chance to speak. The others listened and were given their chance to speak in turn.

It’s a nice thought. Being heard knowing nobody is chomping their bit to get the next dig in.

God i hate arguing, too. I think in the U.S (where i live) the media and politicians have convinced the people that everything and everyone is either black or white. Reality doesnt always work that way. We cant have fruitful relationships with others when we see the world through that lens.

@astrosandorbits Agreed. It’s all a distraction. It blows my mind how many people fall for it.

Indeed it is a nice even a great thought. But in our little corner of Paradise (SW) there are profiles that only show on contentious questions of ,whatever,religion ,politics spouting their flashcard answers...it sometimes goes on for weeks...."listening...thats not an option,nor is respect

People like control, wrong and right are just weapons for people to get their own way when you look deep into a person there are few principles there.

After learning this trait in people around me to just disregard whatever we come up to say without listening fully or interrupt us in as many other ways... Is when I realised the mistake I make is to talk my thought... After realising which I switched to writing my thoughts.. and only present it to those who care ...

From there on I stopped arguing orally with people and made them also reply by text where I can also quote their stupidity while arguing, for it gets documented.. 😀😀

Native Americans were the “real civilized people” weren’t they 👍
