Perhaps it makes more sense to ignore people who constantly complain than to try to reason with them.
Context is important - if your talking about your wife or boss, ignoring may not be a good idea.Perhaps it makes more sense to ignore people who constantly complain than to try to reason with them.
I had a context in mind, but perhaps it would be better if I didn't clarify.

I am thinking about people who will criticize Donald Trump no matter what he does.There was no link to a news article. The statement is vague. What complainers are you talking about?
For the most part, I've been staying away from the political forums. I don't enjoy the never-ending arguments. Still, sometimes I feel I must make a statement.
