It's mental exhaustion. The average person has a "headline-depth" attention span and tolerance for information, so by the time you've argued their point, they've reached the bottom of both their knowledge and attention span. They are ready to be entertained or distracted by something else. "Ugh I don't really care." means that you've exceeded the window of their information tolerance.
That's why things like humor and memes are so effective. Trying to logically deconstruct and examine their ideas in real time to show the average person their logical fallacies is going far beyond their trained capacity for information. They have been conditioned to respond to and digest very short bursts of information, thus memetic warfare is the key for normies. If you have more scholarly friends, they will be more worthwhile going deep on. They can actually last long enough to endure the argument in good faith, and they care more for the truth than partisanship. We'll continue scalping real scholars from the Left until they are naught but a concentration of extreme, low information zealots - and this is already occurring. High information is punished on the Left. The only thing rewarded is emotional solidarity.
