* There are people who are committed to misunderstanding you.
* There are people who will argue with you even if you believe the same things (they are just contradictory and contrarian). *
There are some people who will argue with you just because it’s you.
* Those same people when they hear from others, they will not say “pim” * There are some people whose worldview is vastly different from yours and you still have to co- exist with them * If logic did not get them there, logic will not get them out.
What to do?
* Step back
* Remove your own emotions from the situation
* Think about a bug, and that you are trying to teach it calculus.
* Ask yourself: can they receive what I am giving
* Last but not least, always remember that you can explain something to people, but you cannot understand it for them.
