Yesterday I urged you to talk with people who disagree with you.
That requires respectfulengagement. But I'm not suggesting you
waste your time on people who are willfully
ignorant. The six signs of willful ignorance: (1) The person
youre debating uses nastiness as
a substitute for thought; (2) attacks the source of an argument
rather than the arguments
merits; (3) claims causation from mere correlation (e.g., a
roosters crowing makes sun rise);
(4) disputes facts on which theres an overwhelming scientific or
historical consensus
(evolution, climate change, widening inequality, the Holocaust);
(5) blames or stereotypes
entire groups of people; (6) repeats the same point without
responding to arguments or
information you provide.
Did I leave anything out?
