One of the most aggravating things to me in this world has to be the absolutely rampant anti-intellectualism that dominates so many conversations and debates, and its influence just seems to be expanding. Do you think there will ever actually be a time when this ends? I'd hope so once people become more educated and cultural changes eventually happen, but as of now it honestly infuriates me like few things ever have.

    You might need to read the discussion, as I was being solution oriented (Hydrogen has many good uses, and I agreed with that based on evidence).

    But, the original poster started using buzzwords (I blocked the guy, so don’t remember them fully, but there was a lot), character attacks, and dismissing major evidence. Character attacks aren’t a valid debating technique…
