You can't reason people out of a position that's not driven by reason, or logic.

You absolutely can. I've spent years with numerous Leftists in my social circles who I've made great strides in pulling back from the edge of Wokeness. They haven't become full Ultra Maga, but they've stayed at a place I'd call "Reasonable Left."

Believing statements like that are self-serving. They remove any responsibility or effort from your part to do anything about a problem you care so much about (else you'd not comment every time), and allow you to treat them as dehumanized losers you don't even have to bother to engage with.

If you think they are lost causes, fine that's your right to believe. But let's not pretend like you are doing anything but making the problem worse by making them feel smarter and better by conquering easily dismissed critics whose only response is "lol rent free, seethe."
