I guess whatever it takes to convince the skeptics. Though I figure nothing will convince them once they’ve made up their mind.

I don’t like calling them “skeptics,” because what they really are is super-gullible with regards to conspiracy theories.

“Science deniers” is a better description.

Step 1. Ask what someone thinks about vaccinations Step 2. Ask them what they think about evolution Step 3. Ask about climate change Step 4. Ask about what church they go to
You will learn so much of this overlaps. So much.

There was real reason to be skeptical at first. mRNA vaccines have been in the works for decades and they had just gotten some that work well, then rushed it through. Drug companies aren’t known for being conservative with claims when there’s money to be made.

Cannot use logic to convince someone whose argument isn’t logical in the first place

I’ve always preferred it phrased as “You can’t reason someone out of a position they didn’t reason themselves into,” but same energy.

I always preferred the Mark Twain quote, “Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” Because I’ve been beaten bloody with that experience on more than one occasion.
