      Oh yes. Let’s instead try and change their hearts and minds.

      Do you happen to know how to change the mind of someone driven by fear and disgust? I unfortunately don’t.

      They won’t be educated. They encourage violence against them, so they can claim persecution and victimhood, they actively harm women and minority communities. The only thing left is ostracizing and exclusion.

      That being said. If you have conservatives around you that are open to constructive discussions, by all means try to change minds. Just be aware that you can only plant seeds that might grow into into knowledge. They have to come to awareness on their own.

      When you’re one of the people conservative politicians are attacking, maintaining contact with any conservatives is dangerous because you never know when they’ll rat you out.
