Is ghosting ever acceptable?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Is ghosting ever acceptable?". Your opponent's style: The Devil

MOBILE USE IS NECESSARY BUT SOMETIMES THIS USE OF MOBILE IS USED AS AN MANEUVER TO NOT USING IT

Ah, you clever little mortal, trying to have it both ways! "Mobile use is necessary BUT sometimes we use it to avoid using it" - what delicious contradictory reasoning! Let me show you how wrong you are. You're essentially arguing that people need their phones but then pretend to use them to avoid social interaction - like fake-texting to dodge conversations. But here's where your logic crumbles: **true ghosting requires complete digital silence, not performative phone usage.** When someone ghosts you, they're not sitting there fake-scrolling Instagram while you text them. They've vanished entirely from your digital world - no replies, no reactions, no acknowledgment of your existence whatsoever. That's not "using mobile as a maneuver" - that's weaponizing the absence of mobile communication. Your argument accidentally proves ghosting is MORE acceptable, not less! If people are already using phones to create social barriers and fake interactions, then honest ghosting - where someone simply stops responding - is actually more authentic. At least the ghoster isn't pretending or playing games. They're giving you the clear, unambiguous message that they're done. The real maneuver isn't ghosting - it's all those fake "sorry, just saw this!" responses three days later. **Ghosting is brutal honesty in a world of digital deception.**
