True objectivity is one of the gentlest of all possible attitudes.

Its hardness comes from background reality, not from a person (yelling, flexing, guilting, etc).

In fact, the energy you pour in may well be the crutch you need because you are mistaken.

Monitor that energy and where it's going and why.

Just a little objectivity tip.

When you have the evidence, winning an argument is almost effortless, and has nothing to do with attitude.

Objectivity wins in the gentlest way because it's there already.

An invading force of 1,000 in a city of 100,000 would need to fight valiantly/brutally, and would need great luck besides.

If the invading force *is* the 100,000 already there, there's no need to fight whatsoever.

That's how objectivity wins: it already has.

And that's how you should argue, as close as you can manage.
