Am I upset? You sound upset yourself.

It raises the question of what you were trying to debate with me then.

Could you summarize what you think my initial comment was arguing?

In a lame "gotcha" attempt you took author's words extremely literally: "Let's see how you lose a debate against 2 x 2 = 5 believer. Haha, I'm so smart."

Now, which one do you think is more likely:

- Author meant to say that literally every debate is worth losing

- You (likely on purpose) misunderstood the point author is trying to make

What do you really think is the point author was trying to make? Can you explain in your own words?

Have you read HN guidelines?

Ah, we have a mind reader!

I can, but I won't for you, because it would be fruitless.
