We’ve all been there – caught in the middle of a heated debate between friends with opposing views. One man found himself in this exact situation when his friend Paul (34M) dragged him into an argument with Allie (30sF), a staunch believer in naturopathy. As a pharmaceutical industry professional, he was supposed to be Paul’s secret weapon against Allie’s anti-modern medicine stance. But was his response too condescending? Let’s dive into the story.

The Verdict: Condescending or Justified?

So, our pharma expert found himself in a tricky situation, unwillingly brought into a debate by his friend Paul. When confronted by Allie, he chose to shut down the conversation with a blunt response. Was he being condescending, or was he simply protecting himself from a potentially heated and unproductive argument? Let’s see what the internet thinks about this dramatic encounter.
