There is a big think video by Dr. Shali Tarot on why facts don't change people's minds. And ... what can help. What she says works is exactly what I teach in my course – winning arguments without winning. The socratic method.
Here is the link for the article. https://bigthink.com/videos/tali-sharot-facts-dont-win-fights-heres-how-to-cut-through-confirmation-bias
Arguing facts - doesn't change people's minds. Facts, instead - "polarizes groups of people even further, because of our in-built confirmation biases—something we all fall prey to, equally."
What does work? Finding common motives. We do that - by asking questions to identify our areas of common agreement and then work from there to build up to a solution we all can agree on.
Yes, this works. Yes, it's very humanistic. Yes - I teach how to do this.
