Is it just not worth it sometimes?

Or will you keep driving a point even when you don’t think the other party is being intellectually honest/interested in a discussion? I’ve seen a couple of arguments on this site (and others) where I believe one side is absolutely disinterested in addressing logic or evidence, and I wonder why people keep engaging in that discussion. Is it just not worth it sometimes?

I've thrown up my hands and walked away from a couple arguments here because the other side was ignoring my points and/or simply repeating baseless assertions and claiming to refute my points. I've also pushed at some posters who simply ignore my arguments because they actually pose a counter to what they are claiming and they simply refuse to deal with the point.
