Nice write-up of a new study concerning disagreement and effective persuasion.
One quote: "... a new study illuminates three factors that can lead to better, more persuasive disagreements with others. It turns out that women, liberals, and those with more intellectual humility seem to be more convincing."

This book will teach you the basic principles to hold to get what you want from people, even when they're being unreasonable. If you find yourself dealing with assholes all day, this is the book for you.

1) All people want to be treated dignity and respect.

2) All people want to be asked rather than told to do something.

3) All people want to be informed as to why they are being asked or ordered to do something.

4) All people want to be given options rather from threats.

5) All people want a second chance when they make a mistake.

-Verbal Judo

Yo Mastodon I have a great or tip:

Ask the other side "you could look at it that way, but why would you?" aka ask what they actually want you to understand.

Really tips people off.

Hey, affective sociology: If someone is to be persuaded of sth. as a problem or a solution, s/he has to be affected („affiziert“). If you agreed, what literature would you recommend?
