What does you can't argue with ignorance mean?

Generally when people argue, they argue by comparing the facts that they have. The person whose facts are more compelling wins the argument. An ignorant person does not know any facts. A person who argues with no facts argues with emotion or opinion based on nothing that can be checked or verified by the other side. It is not possible to argue against nothing (no facts.) So while a person who has no facts to bolster his argument can continue arguing, it is a fruitless argument; hence, you can't argue with ignorance. The ignorant person may walk away from an argument believing himself or herself to have won -- not because he or she had the better argument based on facts that could be checked by the other side - but because he or she used opinion or feelings to bolster his or her "argument."


What is an 'argument'?

An "argument" is a series of statements to persuade someone to accept a conclusion. Perhaps the most well-known examples of arguments are the statements lawyers make -- on behalf of the plaintiff and the defendent -- to a judge and jury in a courtroom. Occasionally people use the euphemism "argument" to refer to a much more emotional event -- a dispute, quarrel, When two people fight with words. (In computer programming, an "argument" means something very different -- see the "What is an 'argument'?" question for more details).
