For example, if we have the view in our mind, prior to even reading a
post, is that, "This poster is full of Sh*t. They only post BS, play
games, distort and swims in logical fallacies." then guess what we
will find in almost any post they make: i) BS, ii) games, iii)
distortions, and iv) logical fallacies. The search for such often
overwhelms any points of merit in the post.
My suggestion is to simply turn off the voices of past theories and
hypotheses about the poster, and ones apprasial of their motives, and
simply read their words without any prejedice -- aka pre-judgement.
