It also reminds me of the ideaāwhich Iāve either heard before or said beforeāof talking about taking the Giving What We Can pledge by telling the story of what led one to take it, rather than as an argument for why one should take it. A good thing about that is that you can still present the arguments for taking it, as they probably played a role in the story, and if other arguments played a role in other peopleās stories you can talk about that too. But it probably feels less pushy or preachy that way, compared to framing it more explicitly as a set of arguments.
I also think asking people questions about why they hold a view you think is wrong that suggestively indicate why you think itās wrong can be a good approach (e.g. āBut donāt you think...?ā).
That makes sense to me.
