> Is there anything I could say that could change your mind

This has to be literally the dumbest question, that people are unironically taking seriously.

First off, it it literally asking about a gab in my mental model. It is exactly the same, as when people ask you "did you forget anything" when leaving the house. If I knew, that I forgot my phone, I would literally already know about it, so the question would be pointless. In the same way, if I knew, that saying "but what about blue?" would completely change my opinion on religion/ politics/ abortion... I would ask myself that question already in the pursuit of my own beliefs.

And second off: I am not a fucking automat. How do you expect this conversation to go? You ask me... I tell you "I'll change my opinion, if you say up up down down left right left right A B start", you repeat my statement, I smile and we agree?

@LukeAlmighty By the way, the English word "automat" means "cafeteria with vending machines".

Díky.
Jestli je toto slovo v angličtině opravdu tolik spjaté s konkrétním použitím, tak je to opravdu zrádné :D

A ano, měl bych své posty číst, než zmáčknu enter 😟 Ale občas to prostě nejde.

@LukeAlmighty To byla spíš taková zajímavost, taky jsem na to přišel až relativně nedávno. To, co jsi chtěl říct, je "automaton".
