Why we Argue on the Internet

It's a form of Relativity Theory. We each have different cameras for eyes, we see color differently, and our life experience colors our perceptions differently. This generalizes to all of our senses, all of our experiences, and all of our perceptions about what is true reality. In the dress example, some people truly see the colors one way and some the other. Without any objective analysis, of course people are going to argue, as they don't understand what is going on. In essence, we are all the same in that we perceive reality differently. People who haven't learned this yet rely on ego to defend what they perceive to be truth, and leads to heated arguments. Once everyone realizes this we can use math, tools, etc., to objectively agree on what reality really is, with the understanding that everyone will perceive everything differently. On internet forums, the worst that might happen is perhaps someone spilling their drink on their keyboard. In the real world, this leads to oppression and war, and is the root cause, sometimes intentionally as an exploit for power, of the major conflicts going on in the world today.

True.  Although in some cases there is a clear objective truth.  Some people see it clearly and others are delusional.  Not everything is subjective.

​If objective truth or an objective fact is something we need to agree on, I'd say it's a delusion. An artificial frame, the more abstract the more it forces people to confess to it. A human disease. Literally much ado about nothing, but the ado includes wars and genocides. Think about it. Can there be anything more negligible than, say, the question which NLE or OS is best?

Apply this to any dissensions between individuals, groups or societies. Apply it to your own inner conflicts. Don't worry about things, so-called 'facts', notions. Understand that others are influenced by alien forces B). Do the right thing. Use The Force, Luke!

The dress is white/gold, the moon landing was staged and clearly 9/11 was an inside job as the footage shows explosive charges going off!

* puts on aluminium foil hat - Oh, and I saw Jesus' face in my toast this morning... just a silly coincidence? I think not.
