- dotancohen 5y agoNo, it is exactly the Socratic method. Keep asking for clarification until you find a contradiction. Lead the target to trap themself.
- Kye 5y agoThat must be a difficult way to see the world. The answers to these questions often reveal how plausible it is that a discussion can go anywhere. I've avoided so many hell threads with them. That's time you don't get back. I'm just not going to persuade some people, and questions help me determine the viability of continuing.
