perhaps a good way to police a conversation is to listen for the lies, and stop them dead in the tracks; don't let the lies take hold in people's heads unrebutted. such as "companies price-gouge" or "bitcoin is bad for the environment" or "politicians will fix the problem."

if a lie is treated as an insult to the mind, one could anticipate the attack and intercept it quickly, like "the intercepting fist." truth is aggressive and destructive (to the lies), but the lie has to be first spotted and then arrested. what if i was pro-freedom, and someone at a table was advocating for slavery?

the degree of the counter-attack should match the degree of attack. if the conversation stops, that's a good outcome. if the conversation never begins, that's fine too. furthermore, a solution does not have to be offered until a solution is requested; finally, do hold back and ask why exactly they want the solution, and why now.

having a conversation one on one is great! even better if it's 2+ bitcoiners : 1 normie.
