Givenchy started a very docile and a very harmless topic about Hidilyn Diaz winning the first Olympic gold,
but look where it is now ... it is now heading on its seventh page. It is a very tame topic, but very intriguing
because it has all the recipes and ingredients for a bloodbath discussion which touches the nerves of the sup-
porters of the government who feel slighted because of insinuations that Hidilyn asked for government assistance
and those cries for help went to deaf ears.
And when Hidilyn arrived from Tokyo, after she gets the warmest congratulations from the President, she did
not even blinked when she verbally made everyone aware of her stand on West Philippine Sea.
Then the He said ... She said battle started from all sides, The DDS came in strong force and the Dilawans
also made their presence felt. Everybody had their say and the mood of the day is more of an eye for an eye:
which means everybody is up to get even, they want reprisal and retribution and its payback time.
The discussion had an awesome start, but it crumbled and decomposed into a free-for-all tongue lashing,
ranting and berating. There were intellegent points being raised, but because everybody wants GORE, they
get BLOOD indeed.
There's just a lot of people that are hard to persuade. And unfortunately they came from all sides of the spectrum.
People that were hard to persuade are:
-Narcissist- they believe they have the best arguments. And the ideas of others pale in comparison.
-Rude People - they are difficult and they are annoying. If they continue being rude, the risk of becoming
unpopular is a probability.
-The Manipulatives - they abuse the discussion in a way costing other people's time and energy.
-Obstructionist- they keep claiming that the matter under discussion is not ready for resolution, and offers more
and more possible solutions.
-People With Closed Mind sets-
-People with Superiority complex
-Ignorants who believe they know everything.
-Stubborn and critical people
-People who defy logic, common sense and reason
-Self opinionated bigots.
Persuasion is hard, especially when people have different perspectives, worldview, mindsets and values in life.
Our brains are faster at processing opinions we agree with than those we disagree with. ... People rarely change
their minds, which makes persuasion even harder but not impossible.
