Honestly, I’ve seen a few different definitions for it, from an argument that’s just meant to br antagonistic, another is that it’s one where the one making seeks to win no matter what, another is where the person making it knows it’s wrong but makes it anyway.
Can anyone nail down what arguing in bad faith actually is for me? If so, that’d be great.

When someone is being dishonest or deceptive in any way, they’re not conversing or arguing in good faith. A conversation in good faith means that we’re being collaborative, open minded, and honest.
Exploring each other’s beliefs is a better way to converse, rather than arguing. We tend to want to defend our position more heavily if we feel judged. But when someone is more curious about our beliefs, it’s easier to open up and soften our views.
