Do you actively try to change people's opinions on Brexit?

[Cybergenesis]

If you meet someone (IRL or online) that disagrees with your opinions on Brexit, do you try to resolve it or do you just leave it?
I feel like the more friendly option is to just leave it but with so much overwelming evidence that Brexit will be bad I feel like I want to shout to the world that Leave is a bad idea just incase I can change one persons mind ready for any future referendums.
What do you think?

[17million]

Nope
If the remain voters wish to still believe that the EU (not Europe the continent) is some kind of benevolent organisation that will always be so - even in the face of evidence that suggests changes are coming that they may not find so palatable.
If remain voters are supporting remain because they live in such a selfish entitled bubble - I feel sorry for them and angry at their attitude to our fragile democracy.
If remain voters still believe all the hype/falsehoods perpetuated by the main stream media - I pity them.
I hope I do not encounter too many of them but would not spare the time to try and change their minds. You cannot reason with the ill-mannered and gullible.

@17million , I don't believe any of that shit. And if you had been paying attention you would know that. Anymore than I believe BeLeaver:No Dealer shit.

"You cannot reason with the ill-mannered and gullible." Oh, the irony!

I do occasionally try to engage, and have had a couple of fruitful encounters. However, the usual response I get when I ask why someone voted to leave is "immigrunts", so I generally just point out how Brexit will actually lead to more immigrants of colour, and leave them to stew in their own vile sauces.

EEA/efta is more or less the Norway Option.

It's what Daniel Hannan argued for before he swallowed the pills.

I think very few remainers would have turned their noses up at a Norway compromise in 2017.

Instead, the government and its supporters spent 2 years falling us citizens of nowhere, queue jumpers, traitors etc.

Yep.

And 17million your judgemental bubble is how we ended up here.

No. I don't think you can change people's mind. My DH has 2 relatives on either side of the Brexit divide. They argued with each other constantly until they just stopped speaking to each other. They were very close and don't have a huge amount of family but the abuse on both sides got so bad that they just don't speak anymore. I'm not sure how they will recover the relationship. It's very sad. DH did sometimes get involved in the bun fight but stopped when it got really bad.

[Fairenuff]

Dh had a conversation with someone on Saturday that probably changed their mind.

The trouble is that people sometimes verbally agree but secretly hold on to their original views in their mind. I do that a lot when someone is boring me just to get them to stop. Not saying this is your dh, just that you never know what goes on in the voting booth.

What are the unpalatable changes you refer to 17million?

[Cybergenesis]

I find that very odd.
If you think Brexit is a bad idea and that there might be some future vote that could stop it, surely we have a duty to try to get as many people to believe in Remain as possible?
