I love James O'Brien's LBC show - probably as I'm a woke liberal lefty socialist snowflake - and this was basically just exactly the same. I could clearly hear him in my head as he outlined how to debate with people just as he does on a daily basis.

Obviously I'm not going to actually do it, I'll just shut up as usual and look vaguely uncomfortable until the other person stops talking. Expounding what one espouses is rather frowned upon in my line of work and I rarely put my head above the parapet in the tearoom.

Nevertheless it was an enjoyable and informative read. I'll hold onto the hope that if he can changes one person's mind on just one subject the world will slowly become a better place. Maybe I'll even get a little bit braver when an odious opinion is voiced on my next break and become another voice of reason in the wilderness.
