I find that using this kind of language can be very effective in disarming online arguments that are becoming aggressive.

It’s a shame that some people view it as a weakness. We’d probably be traveling through space at warp 9 right now if others would use this kind of language.

Yes, it's not always effective, but it's nice when it does work.

You know you have a good conversation partner if they're willing to agree on some points🤗

I enjoy it when I talk to someone and they make a counter argument that I can agree with. Sure, validation is cool — but have you ever changed your minds and grown as a person?

Please do be that person when your interlocutor deserves it

It takes much bigger balls to do that and people with respect you for it

Say what you will about Reddit, it's the only Internet place I've ever seen someone admit they were wrong.

Lemmings, as the most opinionated version of Redditors, will dig in and argue that allying with Nazi Germany is cool and fine when Finland does it, because Finland Good Place in 2024 and therefore could never make a national mistake ever.
