Eric, you're refering to argument:

Could you explain it in your own words, because I don't posess the skills to 
read people's minds.

Which basically reads "my argument against is that your argument for is not a 
convincing argument", which I read as - "ok, your argument is valid - I don't 
mind, I don't have arguments - I just don't agree".


So, Eric, it will help me understand you better it you could state your own 
opinion and list arguments that are valid for you in your own words. It is easy 
to be a part of a public opinion, so without explicit arguments it is hard to 
say if people just follow the majority to get rid of annoyance or really have 
the point.
