    Are you then saying that you’ll consider someone’s opinion that is contrary to yours as long as they don’t mention they “aren’t a fanboy”? Its just those words that trigger you to dismiss them entirely?

      I’m saying that there’s being open minded, which is a good thing, and then there’s wasting your time trying to talk sense into people blinded by hero worship/follower identify to the point of being unreachable and/or arguing in bad faith.

      The latter is a bad thing that I’m trying to become better at avoiding but am doing right now with you and was doing before with Definitely Not A Fan Boy Nuh-uh.

        I can certainly appreciate that. My concern is that it appears your criteria for labeling someone as someone to dismiss looks very shaky.

        I’m doing a similar exercise with you too, if that helps. I’m trying to understand where your lines are and how you arrive there because I’m interested in knowing the best ways to communicate (to you and anyone else). You’re clearly putting though into this and there is also clearly a method to which you apply your decisions, but I’m at a loss to understand it.

        Perhaps its best to part when both of us are conciliatory. If so, I’ll thank you for your conversation up to now and hope the rest of your day is great!
