Like any good shame tactic, calling somebody closed minded has the virtue of being insulting while remaining vague. Typically, the person who says it has taken no greater effort to understand the other side's argument than the target of their attack. But they go on the attack anyway as a last ditch effort to change the other person's mind.what does this mean to you?
is it a good thing or a bad thing?
do you think you're more closed minded or open minded?
have you ever been accused of being too open minded?
in your mind is this type related? if so how?
Honestly, why should I change my mind? I believe what I believe because I've studied the matters I care about with a sufficient degree of detail to be confident in my opinion. If someone tells me I'm closed minded, I usually reply by thanking them. Fucks them up every time.
