Over the past decade or so, I have become habitually accustomed to reading through long online discussion threads, but am getting headaches the last couple years from all of the debating. Most of these debates boil down to hairsplitting exercises. The debaters agree with each other 90% of the way, but will go back and forth for pages about the 10% disagreement. The other debates where they disagree 100% have become headache-inducing to me as well. Plus I think sarcasm has become overused as a way to make one's point online. What do you think? Can anyone relate? Are my headaches just a symptom of one who hates the free interchange of ideas?
