We really need debates in Romanian schools. We need to teach ourselves the art of argumentation. What can be said and what cannot be said. Acceptable arguments and arguments that make us look dumb.
No, i am not talking about the retard that understood from this post that my only life purpose is to buy a car. I am talking about entering the battle of the minds with arguments like “his eyes are weird” (that is true, from my accident the eyes are a little pushed back) and “he is so thin” (always been like that) in order to prove is superior thinking.
I would like some fact-based arguments when we are fighting. Or at least a quiet surrender.
We (east-europeans, balkans, whatever) always take it so damn personal, that’s why we can’t have an argument AND a result coming out of it. And we also don’t know how to introduce a counter-argument, “you’re wrong” never works 🙂
