(5,169 posts)Yes, I believe I could, since I would be civil, and not starting out by calling them a stupid ratfucker who fornicates his sister.
First, I would start about talking about the power differentials, and how state power is too frequently used to support a small number of people. Trust, there are a lot of people on the right who worry about too much government. So I would use that as the foundation.
They would undoubtedly start talking about the higher crime rate, etc. I would concede that point because I think it is useless in the long run to make points, regardless of how noble, using lies. But I would counter that every group has problems with crime.
Somewhere I would find a chink in their racist armor and while I doubt I would turn them into true progressives, I can say that many would soften their opinions.
I know because I've done it in the past.
Obviously, I could not do it on their turf - I would be PPRed on the first post.
