I'm done with this. This is one of the most ignorant things I've read in a while.
The term you're looking for isn't 'ignorant', it's 'cognitive dissonance'. Everything they're saying is obviously true but at the same time in your head it's obviously wrong. Instead of trying to grapple with that you're writing the whole thing off as ignorance and shutting down. That's not what ignorance means, by the way. You might as well just say 'wrongthink'.
Their original response was just "I'm done with this". I decided to take it as a "disengage" request. Then they added the "ignorant" part. So I'm glad someone else responded to them lol.
They'll figure it out someday maybe. They definitely weren't open to hearing any of this now
