I always equate these people with conspiracy-theory types. I once saw a documentary disproving all the 9/11 conspiracy theories, and in the documentary one of the talking heads said that it doesn't matter what evidence you provide because what these people really want is to be right and to know something others don't. Or to see something others don't. It makes them special, makes them unique. So no amount of evidence will be good enough because they're not out for the truth, despite what they say. They just need to keep feeling oppressed or in-the-know or whatever it is that's really motivating them.

This made so much sense to me, and made it clear that engaging with these people is a waste of time because it doesn't matter what you say. They have to be right. They have to be better than you. It's not about the truth at all.

So, it's good to put the evidence out there and then walk away. (I agree it can be frustrating though when you're looking for a nice place to debate and/or squee.)
