Facts don’t change people’s minds. The main thing that matters is “is the source in my in-group?”
This is kind of a stupid way to live, but that’s the human baseline. So that’s how all the conservatives live, and why they won’t come around on things like climate change. They’re not listening to facts. They’re listening to their in-group.
Yes exactly, I know facts do not change people’s minds. I said facts SHOULD change people’s minds.
I don’t think their inability to process facts and change their minds is a reason to stop trying, I think the rest of us giving up is dangerous and that is what is happening right now.
Right. I think winning moves might have to play into people’s emotions. Don’t tell conservatives that greenhouse gases cause more heat to be trapped. Tell them like ONLY AMERICA CAN DEFEAT PHYSICS AND MOVE INTO THE FUTURE or whatever.
