[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 7825701, member: 6802378"] I think I can say this: If you really want to convince other people about your point of view in some matter, respect and don't offend. This is not only for the good manners, but rudeness is a bad strategy. You need diplomacy and social skills to get and keep their trust and attention, or they will not listen you any more. Don't try to talk as if you were the sergeant Tom Highway (played by Clint Eastwood in Heartbreak Ridge) fussing Gomer Pyle (from the movie Full Metal Jacket). If you are an unknown person then you haven't got authority to admonish. I read in a book about how to convince is never be contrary. If in a debate somebody start to humiliate and trample then he has lost. Who really knows more thing tries to share her knowledge (sometimes looking like smarty repellent), not a strategy of psychologically mistreat against the discrepant. Please, don't behave like toxic people, and be fast to recognize these when they start to talk and say horrible things about others. If you want to help for the end of racism, machism ( = male chauvinism) or homophobia you have to defend the respect of the human dignity, the base of our rights. Without this the former oppressed may become a ne oppressor. Promote this values: good sense (against prejudices), trust (against fear), mercy (against hate), humility (against pride) , patiente (against resentment), understanding (empathy, to notice about the point of view by the rest). Don't trust who appeals to feelings (fear, pride, wish, resentment, shame and envy) because he is a manipulator. The saying "listen your heart" is cool in the fiction but in the real life you have to use your brain. And we have to make an important difference between the right satire and the toxic humor. This can be really dangerous because people "from the wrong side" lose dignity and then later is easier from teasing and psychological abuse to physical violence. Nietzsche said: "Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster". This happen when the rebels against the authority forget the respect of the human dignity and then as when madam Roland, before being executed by the guillotine (for the French Terror), said "OH LIBERTY, HOW MANY CRIMES IN YOUR NAME!" (Sorry if anytime I didn't find the right word but English isn't my native language). [/QUOTE]
