41. I agree with you
And I think the difference might be found in the terminology. This isn't something you "fight" in the conventional sense.

You walk the walk, you talk to people like they're people, not ideologies, you show them what you think and why, and you show them kindness in action. Just as you've said.

It's a matter of hearts and minds. And I think you've got exactly the right idea.

It works both ways, of course. To really have an open conversation with friends who disagree, you have to be respectful enough of their thoughts and ideas to listen, even if you disagree.

So yay, Evoman!
