Okay, so you're in an argument. But now what? You really feel like you've researched enough and you feel strongly about your argument. But here's the thing: the person you're arguing with is really arguing back with cited sources, personal experience, and the passion of a million suns. At this point, chances are you are pulling facts out from your ass. But you don't know you're doing that because you feel as though you couldn't possibly admit you're wrong at this point. Well, here are 5 signs you don't know what you're talking about and why you probably should have never posted on your social media your opinion anyway.

1. You didn't actually read up on anything.

First things first: If you didn't actually read anything at all from anyone else and are just pulling your own commentary then chances are of course no one agrees with you. Your opinion isn't real.

2. Your opinion stems from similar ideology to Donald J. Trump.

If so, then please reconsider your ideology as DJT is well... DJT.

3. You resort to silly insults before facts.

If you have ever used the terms "feminazi" or "libtard" then you definitely need to try again another time when you can put up a real fight.

4. You incessantly argue your point even after the other party has left and you have done steps one through three.

If the other party is not responding and you keep arguing anyway... just stop. They don't have the energy for you anymore. It's okay to give it up.

5. Even after all of that, you still don't want to do any independent research and move on to arguing about the next thing still following the previous steps.

Just go read like...a news article. Or listen to someone's experience even though it differs from yours. Like, it's okay.
