If X is tied to your identity, you will have strong ideas and opinions about X. To correct this, perform some analysis and see if it is not really a weakness. Some probing questions: - What do you "win" when you force others to understand X is right? - Are you caught up in a relationship or para-relationship where someone else Y is actually winning because you are proselytizing X? - If so, is this relationship a net benefit to you? Why are you supporting Y, is Y benefiting you directly? Are you dependent on Y? Do you want to be dependent on Y? - Could Y possibly be using explicit or implicit consequences, fears, or money to manipulate you? - "Warrior fallacy" - if you perceive yourself as "fighting" for a side, who really cares? Are you caught in social media outrage loops which is really a self-affirmation indulgence? How does your "battle" really affect important things like your paycheck or your mode/method of living up and above things you can do yourself? - "Individualism fallacy" = "if only each individual does X then problem Y is fixed" when the real problem is an entity much more powerful than a single individual. Refusing to deal the true root cause always results in failure, but you may feel like you are "doing something." Don't be blind.
