If someone is cynical and prone to debate, what does the text say will be their fate?

Chapter 2 paints a grim picture for those with a mind for argumentation, which it equates with ignorance and Maya. It states that such a person is "not fit for self-knowledge" and that "only ignorance devours them." The text is quite explicit that for such individuals, there is "no happiness in this world or the next, only unhappiness everywhere and always." This is because their focus on establishing their own side and refuting others is seen as a useless effort that prevents them from achieving purity of self-interest and instead leads to bad thoughts and false logic.
