I had a better way of articulating it, but I went with that.

So for the longest time I felt like I shouldn’t give people reasons behind an answer because you can put in the reasons behind it can sway their decisions. Also I know that I had incomplete data set. Humans do lean on each other to think and you can inject what idea and have it spread.

To attempt something more coherent. You can do propaganda when you try to reason. It’s just natural to talk as if they know and just bridge the gaps in their knowledge with any old phrase

    Interesting I want to illicit strong emotions (mostly right wingers and now Lemmy users :-P).

    Dry and factual argument could be a misnomer. There’s data and the argument would presumably transfer raw data into something humans can understand. Like simulation of a bridge falling apart would be a spreadsheet effectively but it could be rendered into a video or a text description.

    But that’s just “the world is different than your experience” nonsense
