I should do it much more often

A lot. I’m self-aware enough to know that I have a huge hangup about “correctness” and “accuracy”. If someone makes claims, I want to see their evidence and I want to know how their evidence supports their claim. Unfortunately, with some people, they don’t understand what evidence is, they don’t care if other evidence disproves what they’re saying, and nothing I ask or say will suddenly cause them to respond in good faith. In those cases, but not all, I just drop it and delete my comments. It happens all the time and it’s always worth it.

About 1% of the time

Often enough, which I view as a flaw from myself.

I often delete my comments while repeating to myself the mantra of the wiseman on the mountain.

I don't know, it's not worth it to count.

Too many times.

At least once a day.

That is what I do almost exclusively on Twitter - nobody is there for thoughtful and meaningful discussion, it's all propaganda and robots.

I've gotten pretty good at not writing them to begin with these days, usually. Sometimes I want to argue and fight <_<

It is usually not worth the argument if your goal is to persuade the person you are arguing with but it could be useful for persuading others that arent directly involved. If others have already taken a baseball bat to this person's argument or worst case scenario, it turns out the comment section very thoroughly agrees with them and shows no signs that they can be reasoned with, I won't bother.

Less often than I really should.

Like 85% of the time

Quite a lot. Im not going to change anyone's mind.

Regularly. I probably don't post more than 10-15% of the comments I type out

All the time If my reply contains an opinion, whether on politics, tech, or cheese, someone will attack.

Well I think... Never mind

Not as often as I should.

There are just so many important things that need to be said though, especially these days.

Never, the argument is always worth it. I mostly got time to call someone out on their bullshit/bad joke/ misinformation post

A lot. I more conservative and vote Republican, so you can imagine the shit I have to read every day on Lemmy and Reddit...it's like a 24/7 hate fest for the Right. So, when I start to respond to something negative about Republicans..I just say forget...I'll just be down voted to hell, banned, cussed at...etc...
