People who disagree aren't trying to make things complex

This comment feels like a markov chain wrote it. Do you really find parallels between this anecdote and reality? What if we presented an anecdote of the opposite to you, would you change your worldview entirely? If not, why should anyone who reads this?

+100 points for that analogy. "Your prose reads like a Markov Chain". That is Gold. I'm putting that on a T-Shirt.

I don't think the point of most comments are to change someone's worldview entirely (unless of course they are disputing religion or something on that level). Perhaps they might help to mold it over time but if a single comment can change the way you view the world I think your view was too simplistic to start.
