Most people aren’t going to change their minds over a Lemmy conversation, but a significant number will change their minds over a bunch if conversations.
There's a Mao quote I can't find about how party members shouldn't presume they can change people's long-held political opinions with just a lecture or two. Deeply held beliefs by definition take a long time to change.
Yep, exactly. That's why it's good to have these conversations, but the manner and context matters a lot too. There's a good deal of nuance involved.
