Like many things I write, this is a general rule. The best way to come out on top in an "internet debate" is not to get in one. The second best way is to... Dial back - pedantry (look it up, it's a great word) - sarcasm - passive-aggressivism including ironic gifs & emojis
I very much appreciate the way you debate on Twitter. Very good example and influence on us younger men.
