Everyone strongly believes whatever and a random conversation wont change their mind. In fact theyre trying to change yours.
Not necessarily always true.
Sure, a single random convo isn't going to change anybody's mind, but being repeatedly exposed to new ways of thinking (especially from people you respect and trust) CAN make you more receptive to opposing viewpoints. The main issue, if anything, is that people stay within echo chambers where their beliefs aren't being challenged, but rather are reinforced.
Not all political discourse on the internet is done in bad-faith.
