Seller sues dealer/buyer for a high flip

[Exhibitman]

Eric, I don't expect everyone to agree with me or for people I disagree with not to voice their views. I want to hear those views, but I also want to hear the rationales behind the views. These are difficult subjects and people hold a variety of views. My point is that when you come out of the box condemning anyone who doesn't agree with you, it replaces a discussion with a fight. The same is true when anyone labels a position as "the right thing" or as "the ethical thing". That's the end of the discussion too, because any other position is "the wrong thing" or the unethical thing, by definition.

I appreciate any heartfelt point of view. I may not agree with a position, and I certainly won't accept it if that is the case, but as long as it is offered in good faith, I want to hear it and bat it around with everyone.

How about:

"I can't believe I'm typing this..."

Not because they're surprised at their own position. But because they can't believe that anyone in their right mind would ever disagree with them.
