The Addiction to Being Right

Do you guys get the feeling that everyone wants to be right?





I think that's perfect, but I do take issue with those who think they have a corner on the market in regards to truth...everyone's is different. Is that a dimensional concept that many here don't understand? When people use anger and spite and dissension over and over with the intention of "WINNING" a point, it seems inappropriate since this life is filled with subjective discussions...unless they are in third grade...they don't teach subjectivity and objectivity until high school at least...





I will ask people next time, are you in high school?





In a subjective conversation, the only option is sharing...you can't win anything (except maybe the respect of your peers, but some clearly don't want that). Will you share your opinion with us instead of attempt to disprove or disrespect anyone? Without respect, it just seems desperate...almost as if you know you're wrong.





I learned about that tell from watching the GOP over the last 20 years...but that too is just an opinion.
