    This is a great talk. When she says make America talk again she means make Americans talk to each other again. I really like her approach.

    What do you say to people who won't listen? What do you do when you listen to them, but they refuse to listen to you? What do you do when their hatred infringes on your rights? What do you do when the actions of others turn you into a target? Why should I treat people well when they treat me like garbage? You can't talk to some people. Some you can. I appreciate your advice for dealing with people who really believe they're helping things, but others are simply happy that their hatred can finally flourish.

    • @billstade9779

      Good questions. Let me throw out some thoughts with the hope you will take them in the positive spirit that I intend. And with the preface that there are no right answers here, nor any easy solutions.
      Q) What do you say to people who won't listen? A) I think the point of Celeste's talk is that it's not about THEM listening. It's about US listening. It's about understanding rather than being understood.
      Q) What do you do when their hatred infringes on your rights? A) It's not the hatred, it's the resulting actions that may infringe on our rights. Deal those actions head on.
      Q) Why should I treat people well when they treat me like garbage? A) Don't try. Ignore them.
      Q) You can't talk to some people. Some you can. A) Again, don't explain, but rather ask questions. Sincere questions that get to the root of their beliefs.
      And I agree that some people just like to hate. Ignore them. We need to live our lives too.

      Kimberly, your questions are my questions. Here it is two years later and we are near a state of war. The hate has consumed logic, reason, and critical thinking. I tried talking AND listening to my polar opposites until this year but now I'm no longer willing to listen because they don't listen. They say hateful, foul things and they are physically violent. I believe when conversation becomes impossible and physical violence becomes the norm, we must act and defend.

    Everyone should always give people evidence and show how something they believe is wrong. Obviously people will not change instantly. People have beliefs not made out of ice cubes which melt instantly with a little heat, but out of stone, rocks, cement, it takes time to reshape or reorganise believes and facts once realised and at first people might not want to believe someone else and really fight the beliefs or facts given to them. Why? People need to make sure who every is saying something different to them is not wrong before they start reshaping their beliefs about anything.
    People do change and quite often they just don't make massive changes. If you look at how you where 10 years ago and look at how the media and life has shaped you, than you will realise the truth about change. Point being talking about beliefs and morals laying out the facts and beliefs you believe to be true is fine, that is the only way to make people more moral. Especially when these beliefs are based on facts and evidence.
    Talking alone isn't enough, people have to have the hard moral conversations the ones they don't always like, but to be moral that is what one has to do. That is if they truly want to be moral.

    Work in a place where they have televisions for customers. Fox News is the only station they are allowed to show. Thank goodness I am British and am not allowed to vote legally in the USA. Conversation needs to be friendly, open, and all points of view accepted. Just as you say in this great presentation.

    Lost me at do on to others how you would do to yourself!
    If someone wants to be raped and rape. Is it ok for them to rape?
    If someone wants to know the pain of been shot in the foot, is it ok for them to shoot you in the foot?
    No this is stupid. It should be: Be considerate of others and treat them how they want to be treat.
    Empathy is not about how you would feel in their position, it's understanding someone's life story it's about getting a deep understanding of how they think and how they would feel in that situation and being able to understand. You might not relate but you can still feel the pain of the situation based on their life and how they feel. You can feel what they would feel in that situation but because your life has been different in a similar situation you would feel different. So empathy is understanding others, not putting yourself in your shoes in that situation but putting yourself in there life and do your best to understand how you would of felt with that background in that situation. Empathy is deep emotional reasoning. It's not like awww that's cute, awww that's sad. No that's crap. Deep emotional reasoning is understanding feelings from many previous events and situations and actually feeling emotions, this allows people to care.

      Those who want to be harmed by others have a psychological problem. They are called masochists. MOST people abide by and believe in the Golden rule. But not everyone... Understanding is the expression of the love we should have for one another. It is more than feelings. Feelings may change but, the deeper love of the person for wishing the goodof and for the others and doing good for them is what matters!
