        Well, this comment of yours doesn’t look like a good faith argument.

        What I meant is that it takes two sides for one. And when two people are ready to argue in good faith, one may downgrade the level of contention from “argue” to “discuss” without any loss.

        (For me and my sister it would still be “argue”, but we are just rude to each other.)

          Neither did your comment of

          So who debates in good faith and how often?

          Someone JAQing off is not having a good faith argument, and it does not invalidate my argument if I don’t waste effort on someone who isn’t continuing in good faith.

          I see the argument you’re hinting at, and it doesn’t invalidate the argument either, but I’m not going to spend time debating an argument you haven’t bothered to actually make.

            You are making a good example of a person who maybe thinks they can argue in good faith but very clearly doesn’t, with emotional pressure and such.

                That’s true. It also doesn’t invalidate it if I do waste it though. OK, bye
