In most cases you're likely just engaging in rhetorical volleys with the other person.
Until someone trusts you to handle their concerns and vulnerabilities with care, you aren't going to get anywhere.
The relationship is paramount in communication, and it's the one thing that social media (and the pandemic) has most effectively eliminated from our daily lives. In this particular case I think we all need to 'act local and think global'...stop sparring on the Internet and try to make inroads to mutual understanding with those that you can see and hear.
