Despite what social media would have you believe, people are much more likely to listen to reason if you explain your point rather than accuse them of being a Nazi…
The kneejerk reaction on social media is that if you see a person disagreeing with you that you should immediately attack them. I think that’s probably not the healthiest way to interact with the world.
Sure, there are some irredeemable knuckleheads in the world but most people are average. They’re more likely to be accidentally ignorant due to low media literacy than obstinately ignorant. People are more open to having their minds changed that you’d believe from social media where you only see the squeaky wheels being obnoxious in the comments and not the regular person who just reads and goes about their day.

Others are lost causes. I’ve found you cant logic someone out of a position they didn’t logic themselves into.
You can only know that if you try.
