Concerning Bad Faith Arguments
It's a sunny day and you find yourself standing in the middle of a busy multi-lane highway. Cars are whizzing by and you will surely be killed at any moment.
Someone at the side of the road offers to "help" and tosses you a bottle of suncream. They send you links to real studies pointing out the dangers of skin cancer and statistics that show that road safety has improved. They are "correct".
Ignore them. Block them. Focus on the main thing that's happening now.
