Three Types of People You Cannot Appease/Persuade

There are three types of people you cannot appease: The mad, the evil, and the zealot (and not necessarily the religious zealot). The mad cannot understand, so reasoning with them won’t help. If they’re hallucinating and think you are a monster trying to do them harm, they will try to kill you. The evil don’t care what you say (they have no conscience, so definitely a moral argument won’t work. Think: psychopaths and sociopaths.) The zealot thinks you are bad, inferior or evil. So they will think you are trying to trick or deceive them when you attempt to persuade them to your side. Or they think you are just stupid and don’t understand what you are talking about. A zealot can also be someone who has his/her mind up about a person, place or thing and cannot be changed no matter what the facts are even if you give a solid logical argument. 

Communists, socialists, and Islamists fit in the zealot category. You could also fit cults and the KKK in this category. Also, possibly in the evil category (especially the communists and socialists since most of them are atheists). Antifa, BLM and the far-Left are in the mad and zealot category. Mobs are all three usually.
