        Every human has the capacity to learn and change. You just have to understand their perspective and find the fallacy in their internal logic. It requires monumental amounts of patience and creative thinking to find where their misunderstanding is, present them with an argument that they can conceptualize which forces them to confront the contradictions of their position, help ease them through the difficult process of overcoming the cognitive dissonance, and then begin the long process of educating them.

            Sorry you are so simple minded and cannot see how you are blinded by your own prejudices. You’re no better than them in how you approach the world. You’re just the other side of that same coin.
