Look, it's not worth having a big debate over, I just find it very odd how sure everyone is that two specific individuals they've never met are a total lost cause and couldn't possibly be reasoned with, despite plenty of evidence that even people with very extreme viewpoints can be brought around. The level of immediate certainty people can justify is surprising to me.
EDIT: I guess surprising is the wrong word there. More like jarring enough I thought it was worthy of mention.

This kind of stance is fine for when someone makes a racist joke at a party. Not for when you see two people wearing swastikas on their faces at Walmart.
