When to End a Debate

Listen "When to End a Debate"

Episode Synopsis

You debate someone daily. It could be your partner, friend, co-worker, boss, or an anonymous asshole on social media.
Debates can be exhausting and unproductive, especially if you're debating someone close-minded and inflexible. I've made controversial points about:
Abortion
What's a reasonable number of unarmed police shootings?
Leopard hunting

Therefore, I have plenty of experience debating intransigent people.
In the past, I would waste time debating religion (I have a BA degree in Religion) and other taboo subjects, but lately, I've developed a new technique to avoid having useless discussions.
I reveal my simple tactic below that you can employ when you're talking about:
The JFK assassination
UFOs
9/11
COVID
Or any other third-rail discussion

Lastly, look in the mirror! Make sure you apply the same question to yourself! Maybe you're the stubborn one! Tell the other person what evidence you want to see before changing your mind.
