    Don’t ever go in to an Internet argument expecting to see someone change their minds, especially for something like this.

    Best you can hope for is you plant some tools in their gardens for them to work with next time theyre presented with a pile of bullshit

      The goal shouldn’t be to change minds, but instead to make people see that you aren’t crazy, and that you make some good points, even if they don’t agree with your overall message. Make which good points and they may start to come over to your side.
