@d_christiansen @puffnfresh "Making people listen" is distinct to "helping people get it" -- don't conflate the goal.

@dibblego @puffnfresh Listening is the first step towards "getting it". Most people listen with the heart and brain together.

@d_christiansen @puffnfresh This persistent conflation is our point of disagreement. I firmly believe it to be false.

@dibblego @puffnfresh But diversity of tactics can also be a great strength!

@d_christiansen @puffnfresh Diversity of tactics is not the same as just making up any old thing and going with that.

@dibblego @puffnfresh I certainly don't advocate making up any old thing. Merely being friendly, respectful, and adaptive in communication.

@d_christiansen @puffnfresh Demonstrate how this contributes to the goal, even a bit. Otherwise, it is just making stuff up.

@dibblego @puffnfresh Disrespect makes many people stop listening. Perhaps we're speaking past each other?
