I actually just developed a new theory. The people that are rational for the most part see the discussion that go on and just don't bother posting because they know it is a waste of time. That leaves you with a few dedicated rational people fighting a tide of blind fanboys that say the same thing no matter what the topic is or what anyone else has said.

 

Wow, this reminds me of US presidential debates actually. Scary thought on so many levels.

I think you've nailed it right there.  Some people refuse to see reason, or even to consider and contemplate a contrary viewpoint, and arguing with those people is just a huge waste of time.
