"Always compete with the same good, do not argue with the fool", you can often argue with like-minded people about each other's opinions, but don't worry about stupid people, otherwise the gains will not be worth the losses.
If you talk to a smart person, maybe he can understand it in half a sentence, and communicating with each other can also bring you different insights and inspirations, which will work for you. But if you chat with a fool, you may really play the piano to the cow, and he can understand it after ten sentences, obviously it is not worth the loss, it is both a waste of tongue and time, and the IQ has a feeling of being pulled down.
Communicate with smart people, can be familiar with a wide range of knowledge; talk to stupid people, there is always a verbal dispute. With a color of discrimination and disgust, it is not as common as you.
As the saying goes, Xiu cai meets soldiers, and it is not clear what is reasonable. Indeed, Xiucai and the soldiers were not originally a species, and there was an indissoluble chasm between them.
No matter what the other party says, it is provocative, taking care of him left and right, talking to someone you will feel that he is neither trying to listen to you nor to persuade you, but to anger you. Obsessed with such a conversation, you will either become a "fool" yourself, or you will be angry and hurt.
A gentleman's non-contention is not to not fight for everything, but not to fight for the will, not to take advantage of the tongue. Just like a martial arts master, only when you meet an opponent worthy of the move, you will go to have a fight with them. I am not a gentleman, but for people who are different from my three views or people who are inconsistent with the general direction, they generally disdain to argue with them, and feel tired of saying more than one word.
In today's society, everyone is smart, but who is a fool? Everyone thinks they are smart, but the truth is there, smart people will only be a minority, and the vast majority of people are fools. So in your eyes, maybe that person is a fool, but in his eyes, maybe you are also a fool. Often the repetition is endless also.
