Will the far right or the far left ever admit that they are wrong or change their mind on issues such as climate change, free trade, taxes, immigration policy, military policy even if they are shown facts that counter their beliefs?
Here's a typical argument with a political extremist:
- He makes a point.
- I make a counterpoint.
- He says I'm wrong.
- I present research or facts to back up counterpoint.
- He says I'm listening to lamestream lying media/Faux News and my facts are wrong.
- I ask him to prove they're wrong.
- Instead of trying to prove me wrong with facts and research, he insults me and/or says he won't waste his time on me.
The only people who have ever blocked me on GAG did so over political diagreements where they could not refute my points
