I've left the topic open to discuss stuff but not if it's just noise.


It does not come from a place of anger - it is merely passionate. Changing someone's mind takes a long time so obviously that isn't the goal here. However, you can broaden your interlocutor's horizons by exposing them to a different set of opinions. I consider it a stressful albeit enriching experience plus the internet is arguably a safer place to do it than a real-life setting.
