Everyone should be doing this — honest engagement with people who disagree with you is the only way to genuinely see if ideas fail, or succeed.

I sponsor a number of people on Patreon who’s views I completely disagree with, but because of their seriousness and academic rigor, I support. It is impossible to be serious about ideas in an echo chamber. You need this real world testing, and only with people who seriously know how to engage in a real way — not with childish personal attacks, appeals to emotion, etc.

Logos, ethos, and finally, in the smallest doses, pathos.
