  • You know you're not helping @greenhell ?

    You and your brother's situation is the sort of thing that people need to know about, that if you explained patiently to some Conservatives you might have a chance of them understanding, sympathising and changing their voting position.

    Some are cunts that won't be changed, but some aren't. They learned their views from somewhere, they can just as easily unlearn them, but they won't if you just shout swear words at them.

  • Totally agree - that's all I've ever said on this thread. Move away from the abuse and change people's minds through reasoned debate. Calling people cunts is only ever going to strengthen their resolve to vote against whatever it is you're screaming at them for. Unfortunately whenever you try to bring that line of reasoning up, it just gets met with a shitload more abuse - you're Tory scum/sympathising or whatever. Nothing's going to change like that.

  • Calling people cunts is only ever going to strengthen their resolve to vote / argue / campaign / fight against whatever it is you're screaming at them for.

    Exactly this. On the upside though, it is quick and requires no effort.
