    okay well if you're not just trying to get me riled up then I will get a little more specific

    I am saying that the original people who form these opinions, on these boards and elsewhere, are enlightened and educated. They have done research, they have a well-thought out and moderated opinion, they can discourse at length on the topic and it's basically clear that they're super-bright and know what they're talking about.

    Then people come along and agree with them and all, but when actually pressed they basically just parrot back bits and pieces of the original opinion without actually making a clear and effective argument, so it becomes obvious that instead of knowing the facts themselves and without admitting "yeah, ok, I believe this but am not the best person to argue the point" they just get more and more antagonistic and inflammatory.

    This is something that bugs me.

    no but it's more than that

    i know lots of hipsters

    my girlfriend's in university, some of her friends are hipsters

    and yeah, hipsters are annoying

    but there's this sort of madness that afflicts some people when they start in college

    they turn into mouthpieces for their professors and espouse with absolute conviction viewpoints and ideas they might've been taught last week

    after that first year, it seems to taper off and temper itself

    almost

    there are some opinions that I don't share that I can see the merits of

    like a lot of fiscal issues or political ideologies, I don't endorse them but yeah, I can see where you're coming from

    I'm just trying to highlight the difference between "I wonder if this way of doing things is the best it could possibly be" and "maybe we live on the inside of the planet Earth and no one has ever told us because they don't want us to find out"

    well this is cute

    but I have never had an opinion with my professors about vaccines

    nor about healthy distrust

    like I understand that you will be able to say "yeah you're just saying that because you're a freshman" and yeah, ok, whatever, you got me there

    however, you're kind of just being an incredible asshole here. First of all, you're talking about absolute conviction in spite of the fact that that's the very thing I'm arguing against. Second of all, instead of addressing me you are dicking around in the thread trying to passive-aggressively undermine what I'm saying. At least be forthright, the "talking shit about someone while they're in the room" is a pretty laughable way of acting towards people.
