This is what Steve does. And he does it respectfully. The enemy is still human and you never know when he might reach someone and help them to their next step of understanding. You should check out the work of Daryl Davis if you want another example of how patient compassion can literally change people's minds: https://www.fairforall.org/profile/daryl-davis/

It's not helpful for us to think of people as "enemies" and thereby justify dehumanizing them - not speaking to them, etc. I prefer to think of people who I feel are misguided as just that - misguided. Of course, everyone has the right to not engage with whomever they choose. But, I respect Steve for engaging these people.
