Top Takeaways

Having a passion for something is good, but we can’t let it push us into having angry arguments.

Good arguments are reasoned discussions that help you share and learn new ideas. They don’t start with a conclusion then seek out facts. They seek out facts then make a judgment.

We all have blind spots (confirmation bias). By being aware of them, we can improve our discourse.

Go meta to help manage discussions and improve them.

Engage with Scott and Paul on the Twitter thought control machine.

We’re also on Odysee (full episodes and clips).

Follow Scott at Strength and Reason and on DESO.
