You can change someone's mind once you know someone's mind, through deep empathy.

My friends and I can change each other's minds quite often, by approaching arguments from their own rubric. For example, by drawing an analogy between the topic of discussion and one of their deeply held views, exposing some dissonance.

But it takes time, empathy, and understanding. Which is to say I doubt it ever happens on the internet.
