    I try real hard to not only change my mind but vocally (typographically) acknowledge when I was wrong because it’s so goddamnit rare and infuriating.

      Same here. I work in tech and you’d be amazed how many people are so much less on guard around me because of this.

        It’s a movie but CPT Jack was right, you cant trust an honest person, but people do anyways.

      same here, even when someone hasn’t changed my mind 100% I’ll often acknowledge if any of their arguments made me want to delve deeper into a topic and think more about my opinion on it
