In this episode of We The People, Gates Garcia takes a hard look at the way we argue. Social media rewards outrage, the left talks to the left, the right talks to the right, and almost nobody gets persuaded. Gates makes the case that we've started confusing attention with influence, and that being right isn't enough if the person across from you stopped listening 30 seconds ago.

Gates talks about slowing down before you speak, what Fulton Sheen understood about making a hard point without making people feel stupid, and the difference between trying to convert someone and trying to evangelize them. This episode explores how to be convicted without being cruel, clear without being condescending, and strong without needing to be loud, and why sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is give someone a reason to keep listening.
