if you go in refusing to consider their evidence, they aren't going to consider yours either.

This actually just happened. He texted a link to YouTube video today with some chiropractor lecturer guy referencing books written by a few rogue researchers. The guy made a bunch of illogical inferences and had some half baked conspiracy theories tying it all in.

When I responded with what I thought was a pretty logical (although slightly impassioned, maybe) message deconstructing several of the arguments, the ENTJ got suddenly abrupt and short with me.

Said he no longer wanted to continue having this conversation with me, ever, about this topic and that I “haven’t deconstructed anything.”

Now I feel stupid and regret ever letting him engage me at all. I am not sure what I said that made him think I’m not worth debating this subject with, but it hurt my feelings and pride and I wish he’d just left it alone.
