No, people can be right and still be dismissive. If someone comes to me and tells me 2+2=5, and I say "no, dummy, get out of here", that doesn't make them righ

No, people can be right and still be dismissive.
If someone comes to me and tells me 2+2=5, and I say "no, dummy, get out of here", that doesn't make them right. Sometimes people don't want to have to deal with nonsense.
- prepend 6y agoWhat if you say “2+2=5” and someone comes up and says “respectfully it seems 2+2 should equal 4” and rather than engaging in a discussion you have them kicked out of school, that probably means your argument is not sound and is not defendable.
- cool_dude85 6y agoI agree. Being dismissive doesn't mean you're right, either. It would be quite foolish of me to claim otherwise.
