I avoid names when talking to friends and family of the left leaning persuasion. Policy only, there are too many names that trigger usually normal democrats. My personal favorite is bringing up a subject that I want them to "tell me more about this" and then ask questions. Stop when they start tensing up with, " I'm gonna read more about this, I appreciate your insight." When I make a habit of asking them, they do more research so they can "school me". A non-argumentative, "Hear me now, believe me later" works GREAT for long term relationships.
