  • There’s some truth to that but the problem is you don’t have the time or mental energy to deal with every single instance like this, especially if you spend much time online. The poster has absolutely nothing to contribute. They’re dragging it out for the sake of dragging it out, and in effect it’s arguing in bad faith. whether you want to follow up on that and try to engage everyone fully, that’s your call. But I don’t think most people would care that much because the poster just doesn’t have anything to contribute.

But there are telltales that might clue you into whether or not they are asking a legitimate question or just throwing out doubt by stringing along the conversation. In this particular case, probably the easiest thing to do is just look at his user profile. He is a troll. There is no reason to assume good faith and no reason to pay any attention to what he has to say. Best to just block and move on.
