It's wholly not effective, it just creates further divide and promotes the idea that those with similar beliefs are on your team and those that don't, aren't.
So then we just go back and forth with a bunch of stupidity and nothing is accomplished, you can respect people without agreeing with them, or agree to disagree in a reasonable debate. Those things largely don't exist anymore. |

This is fundamental.
Of course someone or someones determined enough can wrest your rights from you, a kidnapper can take your liberty, a murderer can take your life. But our society vitally depends on the notion that those rights are yours to hold, enjoy and preserve, and if someone wants to abridge them they better have a persuasive reason or society will rise to oppose them. If 'it's all an illusion' then I'm not invested in any of your rights and you're not invested in any of mine, and it's everyone for themselves and we're all out forming ad hoc lynch mobs to shame, cajole or muscle others into compliance.

I agree that you would argue over some really petty shit.
The fact that you read that post and THAT'S what you took from it is just
