I've found that I have to carefully tailor my arguments depending on the audience, to a greater and greater degree lately. In many places it seems the only way to get someone to listen to you is to couch everything you say in the terms of their pet causes. If I argue for LGBT rights with a conservative I have to make it about constitutionality and government overreach. If I discuss male victims of sexual and domestic violence with a leftist I have to talk mostly about female victims. If I advocate for the free speech rights of racists I get called a Nazi and when I advocate for the free speech rights of Drag Queen Story Hour I get called a communist.
