I had a better way of articulating it, but I went with that.
So for the longest time I felt like I shouldn’t give people reasons behind an answer because you can put in the reasons behind it can sway their decisions. Also I know that I had incomplete data set. Humans do lean on each other to think and you can inject what idea and have it spread.
To attempt something more coherent. You can do propaganda when you try to reason. It’s just natural to talk as if they know and just bridge the gaps in their knowledge with any old phrase
I try to have a “hands off” approach to other people. If they do something I disagree with, I’ll casually tell them, but that’s it. Ultimately they’re their own person and can make their own choices. Unless it directly impacts me, in which case I draw a line in the sand.
When I was younger, I got mad a lot, and tried to force people to do things my way and control then. But I didn’t like that and try not to do it anymore. Actually I find that people are more likely to change their minds if there is zero pressure. Instead of “fighting against” your pressure, it gives them space to actually think about it. Sewing the seeds of doubt or something.
Lol I wish I could have a hands off approach but other people have hands and various people want to interject themselves.
I only wanted to control one person, but I can feel people wanting me to lead them
