How to disagree in PM peacefully

Hi there! If you don’t know who I am, my name is Snow. An issue has been popping up far too frequently and it has gotten to the point where I’m extremely disappointed, As you can tell by the title of this topic, I want to address it. I found this great article that also addresses the issue. You can check it out here: How To Disagree Peacefully by Katelyn E. Zimmerer
I’ll be summarizing the 8 points made by the author so please note this is not my work but theirs. When disagreeing with someone:
1. Remember that the person you are speaking with probably does not hate you
2. Name calling is still something only first graders should be just now learning not to do
3. Do not mock the other person’s point of view
4. Listen
5. Stay calm
6. Don’t make absolute claims…ever
7. Use real statistics
8. Be willing to concede.
Also, I’d like to add something of my own. Look if you’re going to disagree about something don’t rage quit. It’s extremely immature and looks ridiculous. It doesn’t hurt other people, it hurts you.
Anyways, that’s all I’d like to say. ^^
