Honestly, most of these people can’t be reasoned with. Even psychiatrists are saying it’s not worth trying at this point.
I was bored, but if you’re going to engage, I’ve learnt a few things:
-
Acknowledge you’re not going to change their mind, especially in online discussions.
-
If you must engage, talk to the audience reading, not to the person debating you. Then acknowledge you won’t change their minds either.
-
Every reply must be shorter than their last. Never try to out-talk them. They won’t read it, and you’re just giving them ammunition.
-
If you really, really have to engage, know when to stop.
I have a problem with #4 lol
