Give people credit when it's due, and don't temper it with a jab.

It's already hard for people to give credit to philosophical opponents when they manage to make a strong point, or get something clearly right.

What I've been doing for a while is give my opponents credit; but, I still tend to temper that my reiterating that I still think that the opponent is still generally wrong about just about everything.

I wanna stop doing that.

I wanna stop giving credit to people like Ana Kasparian when she says something right, or admits to having been wrong about something, and follow that up with, "At least she's better than the rest of TYT." or, "Hey, she's better than Cenk."

Just give her credit and move on.

I wanna get into that habit. Just give people credit when it's due, and don't temper it with a jab.
