[split] Knowing that you cannot know

[Louisabell]

Certainly. That is why I am mentioning intentions of the interlocutors.

What happens when at least one side of an argument is not holding the intent to be open to changing their mind?

Maybe the strength of one's refusal to have a change of mind is equal to the amount of one's unacknowledged longing to experience a change of heart? What kind of change would be more significant for someone, afterall.

So how do we acknowledge the unacknowledged?

But who knows? Maybe they're just really really convinced. Confirmation bias doesn't happen in a day, it's rarely reversed in a moment. And hey, maybe they're right and we're the ones that are wrong.

I'm in a very question asking mood today...
