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.

A bad faith argument is when you make a statement or argue in favor of something that you already know to be false, incorrect or morally wrong in hopes to deceive someone else.
An example would be Putin telling his people that Ukraine is a Nazi state and started a war with Russia. HE knows that is complete BS, but if enough people believe and support him then it doesn’t matter how much of a lie it is.
