Have you ever wondered why online opinions are becoming more and more polarized?
In simple terms, it's because social structures are too complex.
In the same era, some people live within modern logic, while others still cling to outdated thinking, and some have worldview perspectives that haven't changed in decades. In reality, everyone does their own thing with little intersection. But once online, especially on social media, thousands of years of thought systems are forcibly squeezed onto a single platform. Ancient thinking and modern cognition collide, and no one can convince the other.
Therefore, rather than getting entangled in endless debates, it's better to focus your energy on yourself. Do what you should do well, respect others' choices, and act with integrity. After all, everyone is living in their own era, and trying to forcibly change others' minds is often futile.

Forget it, I'll just check the candlestick charts. It's much more comfortable than reading these trashy comments.

That's right, people online are indeed living in different timelines.
The internet is like a big melting pot, hard to squeeze everyone's minds together, no wonder there's always arguing.
Instead of arguing with people in the comment section, it's better to focus on doing your own thing, really.
Ah, forget it, anyway no one can change anyone else, just live your own life.
I like this view; knowing that you are powerless to change others, in a way, makes you feel free.
Online debates are like this, a circle of people always trying to persuade someone who simply won't listen.
Wow, this is almost like saying me, being overwhelmed every day by these online opinions.
So, it's still important to have your own judgment and not let the noise online drown you out.
Who isn't? I gave up trying to persuade netizens a long time ago.

This statement sounds quite correct, but online debates are not really about changing opinions; they're just about winning.

That's right, the internet is an information battlefield, and there's no need to argue with people whose minds are not on the same wavelength.

You're right, but do you know what the real problem is? No one really wants to hear different opinions.
We're all too stubborn, insisting on bending others to our will.
Online arguments really have no winners. I just want to ask, why is it so hard to let go?
Staying peaceful might actually be the best choice.
Sometimes I also realize there's no need to struggle anymore.

This logic is a bit far-fetched. The intense conflicts online are just because human nature is inherently evil.
Forget it, I’m too lazy to argue. Just do your own thing.
Why argue online as soon as you log in? What’s the point, wasting electricity?
That’s right, but I still want to reply to nonsense comments.
Really, what’s the use of winning debates? You can’t win over their mindset.
Everyone has their own aspirations. Is it really satisfying to be uniform? It’s unnecessary.
The internet amplifies the ugliest side of human nature. No matter how much you advise, it’s useless.
This view sounds comfortable, but the reality is that some people just have to win.
