What’s a common “fact” that’s spread around that’s actually not true and pisses you off that too many people believe it?

    Agreeing to disagree is only applicable to matters of taste.

    Example would be a preference of maple or agave syrup with your choice of cooked dough.

    One cannot agree to disagree when one of the parties is factually wrong.

      A lot of people don’t understand “factually wrong” is often not possible, if you’re literally debating specific stated facts that you have outside references to sure but anything relating to complex systems, issues, the human experience etc is simply not that black and white
