| Aeolus451 said: It mainly depends on how deeply they believe something. Sometimes, it just take evidence or present your arguement in the right words or show them a line of logic to change their mind. Sometimes, nothing will sway 'em and that's fine because there's many different perspectives on many things and in most cases, there's no one truth or right way. @bolded How would that be a good move? i can understand meeting hostility with hostility but not being hostile to someone who isn't unless you're trying to provoke them or eventually come to blows with 'em. |
Totally agree with the first part. It's a battle of perspectives, not a search for truth.
@bolded: Emphasizes importance of the issue, inspires others to weigh in, prevents diffusion of the argument when you're winning and, indeed, even provoke the opposition to make mistakes. Can be a useful tactic.
