How do you argue with apathy?

It does and it doesn’t. That’s the most succinct answer. If you want to go down the rabbit hole, the argument could be made that even saying objectively that “your own conscious experience exists” is a step too far... In practice, this is an untenable framework upon which to build a healthy society (or mind).

My own viewpoint is so dynamic. I’m sure yours is too. One thing I hold to be solid (ie “objectively true”) is that it is better to fight ideas than to fight people. The idea that holds up best under scrutiny is the one most should leave the argument with. Intellectually honest discussion should be combative, but not personal. Ideas must be tested, let only the strong survive.
