      The need to believe that we can actually win hearts and minds with either empathy or logic is a toxic death trap.https://twitter.com/JoyAnnReid/status/877364783279988736 …

      The game isn't to convert people into thinking like you. It's finding more people who already think like you, and getting them to the polls.

      Be honest: you've had at least one argument in your life that you didn't walk away from *because* the other person wouldn't give in, right?

      You were convinced that your argument was so perfect that you just needed to tweak the wording or find the right hook and they'd see it.

      You had to change their mind. All they had to do was stand pat. It was never a contest.

      The belief in a just world, an orderly world, a logical world, and in the better nature of people tells us we should be able to win a debate

      "There's no way they can dispute the data, no way they can refute the logic, no way they can ignore the suffering." But they can!

      You can't change someone's mind without their permission. And it's the easiest thing in the world to not change your mind.

          But if you believe in The Power of Reasoned Discourse, in any form, then the need to believe in it can keep you chasing a hopeless convert.

          And that's why so many of us spend so much time and energy trying to manufacture common ground rather than making common cause.
