I think I figured out why most people find me so hard to get along with.

It's because I'm constantly challenging the status quo. And like I honestly don't do it just for the sake of doing it, but not only is our society constructed in such a way that differing opinions are taken as personal attacks, it's also sometimes falsely interpreted as arrogant, especially when I'm highly confident of my positions.

A random discussion I was having on Facebook inspired me to make this topic.

On the other hand, there's people like me, who tend to manage to get into debates they know nothing about for the sake of trying to make conversation >_>

But yeah, our society is definitely like that. I don't think all cultures are the same way, but a lot of them seem to be.

I'm all for making conversation, even if you don't know much or have much to say. Just participate for the sake of it.

If it gets to be too much of a problem, switch to active listening. Everyone will love you forever, since most of the time people only care about what they themselves have to say.

Anyway, I don't do debates where I don't know what I'm talking about. Sometimes it's okay to... not have an opinion at all.
