I hope they listen to you. Chances are though, they have no interest in being swayed. The reason they are like this is they think they are more clever than all the rest. They have made their contrarian belief a part of their identity and abandoning that would cause them to have to change who they are.

Honestly, most of these people can’t be reasoned with. Even psychiatrists are saying it’s not worth trying at this point.
I was bored, but if you’re going to engage, I’ve learnt a few things:
Acknowledge you’re not going to change their mind, especially in online discussions.
If you must engage, talk to the audience reading, not to the person debating you. Then acknowledge you won’t change their minds either.
Every reply must be shorter than their last. Never try to out-talk them. They won’t read it, and you’re just giving them ammunition.
If you really, really have to engage, know when to stop.
I have a problem with #4 lol
