About
"So what?", a common phrase in the American vernacular, more or less stands for either or both of the following arguments:
- I am not clear what conclusion you are attempting to imply with what you just said.
- I do not see how what you just said alters the outcome of our discussion.
- I do not see the logical connection between what you just said and the current topic.
While its use is often dismissed as an immature tactic for avoiding rational debate, it is actually an entirely reasonable (if extremely compact) expression of basic skepticism.
