Has A CMV post ever changed a persons view?

CMV is shorthand for "fuck you, you can never CMV"

I think it can persuade people on the fence about different things.

Here? I've never seen it. But if you keep an open mind, a CMV may add depth to your view.

And views may change in the comments beneath them.

For example, most of us are now willing to admit that we run in different circles, have different experiences, and are just going with what works for us, personally. We can have actual conversations now.

Sometimes.

Even if it doesn't change your view it can help to understand the other side better.

This sub is a major reason I haven't just totally drank the red pill kool-aid..... I'm sure some CMV topics were involved with that as they're such a big part of the sub and spark so many of the discussions, but I can't recall any one specific instance that stands out

GuitarsAreGettingOld · 2016-04-08T07:43:53+00:00

Yes. /u/wuboo changed mine once. Mad props.

alreadyredschool · 2016-04-08T09:13:38+00:00

Sure.

But most of the time CMV means: Challenge my view.

prodigy2throw · 2016-04-08T11:21:55+00:00

I don't know about that but PPD did help bring some points home for me which trp left out. None come to mind atm but I'll edit if they do.

Although my CMV about SJWism being a pseudoreligion attempting to replace christianity in our society influenced multiple people in the sub, the person who posted that it's less of a designed conspiracy and more of people with nothing in their lives wanting meaning did make a good point. I don't think SJWs intentionally want to be the only moral authority and stamp out resistance, but our brains are just wired to spread the message that much about something that feels sooo goood

It changed my view when I posted a CMV. I learned about consignment shops for example. Which before, I thought was another brach of women's clothing stores.

FieldLine · 2016-04-08T16:41:26+00:00

Yes. CMV: If a man wants a woman he impregnated to get an abortion he shouldn't have to pay child support.

I don't really feel satisfied with the answer, but I do understand the reason the system is set up the way it is. Here is the post I gave a delta if you're curious.

Nazrath2112 · 2016-04-08T18:23:00+00:00

Once. Only once.

[deleted] · 2016-04-08T18:23:06+00:00

CMV might as well be "Please write something that I will automatically assess as ignorant and contrarian".. It's like a debate punching bag lol.. Which seems like the Purple Pill in a nutshell. It's interesting to read.

angels_fan · 2016-04-08T18:46:25+00:00

Absolutely.

The main RP/BP subs are just echo chambers that do not tolerate dissent.

I've had my mind changed on many things in this sub.

deadsandsushi · 2016-04-08T20:51:20+00:00

Sure. I'm sure at one time one person changed his/her mind with a CMV. I have no proof of this, but you have no proof that someone didn't.

PurplepillBro · 2016-04-09T00:14:40+00:00

Stuff I read here changes my views all the time

I'm not a diehard though so ymmv
