What is a “knee-jerk contradiction”?
In the discourse-guidelines there are many bullet points of what to avoid to improve conversation.
One of these points is Knee-jerk contradiction.
Now I know what a knee-jerk is and I know that I will usually mean a reflexive answer or behaviors without reflecting the actual conversation.
What does contradiction have to do with this? What does it mean in this context does it mean that I shouldn’t automatically oppose what the other person said because it’s them who said it (basing my response on the negative emotions towards them, not on their actual post)? What defines another word? What does it mean?
What is the perfect word (say) for ten signs for a sign shop?

Calling. How is an ad hominem-attack delivered? I wrote the tone that responded to my post instead of the actual content. What should I do? And that’s a jerk counterfactual.
I wish I had written it like
this: Contradicting others in a knee-jerk manner.
How do I get right away without
further thinking?
Contradiction means against, disagreeing with what is said. Contradiction means if you can’t hear it.
The expression “knee jerk” is a reference to the patellar reflex where a slight blow to the patellar ligament just below the patella (kneecap) causes the leg to move. What is the brain doing in a way, that is to say, it is making a decision in the spinal cord just a third of the way up your back? What does a person mean if he does something instantaneously without thinking the issue through?
When you are advised to avoid “knee-jerk contradiction”, it means to resist giving into the impulse, during a heated argument, to simply disagree without thinking about whatever your disputant just said.
