Philosophical Dutch rudder

When 2 or more people are arguing about a topic when neither person are making a point to sway the other’s position; however are enjoying the fact they are hearing their own position of the topic.

“I was in a philosophical Dutch rudder in class you won’t believe where he came from!”

“You want in on this philosophical Dutch rudder or are you good?”

“So mid philosophical Dutch rudder this guy drops the n bomb and people came at him from every direction after that”

Philosopher's Nightmare

Any time you're witnessing a conversation spiral downwards and are able to identify the rhetorical techniques participants are fueling the descent with little hope of being able to recover from. Techniques include cherry-picking, generalizing, the moral high ground, appealing to fear or popularity, aggressive (including passive) behavior, explicit bias and persistent rambling with an intent to win over the other side. You're confident any contribution or attempt to help move the conversation forward will be ignored or met with immediate resistance and rejection.

That post on Facebook about gun control became a Philosopher's Nightmare with most of the participants attacking and distracting each other.
