Nah, it’s sports team mentality. You can say any reasoned, logical, humanist argument you want, but people will never turn against their “team”.
That is verifiably wrong. Daryl Davies is a black man who has convinced dozens of members of the KKK to renounce their beliefs and their robes. You absolutely can convince people that their beliefs are wrong.
Exactly. There was a fantastic podcast episode looking at how he did this, but I can't find which specific episode it was now.
I can't believe what I said is being considered such a disagreeable hot take....but I guess that's how polarised the world has become.
Your take is only disagreeable because of how unrealistic it is. Do you honestly think everyone else, or even better, society as a whole can implement such time-consuming and long-term methods?
I'm not arguing against the worth or effectiveness of the method. It's actually extremely impressive as a story, but is it feasible as your average way to deal with racists?
Spoiler, no it's not feasible
