If I want to convince you, specifically, in debate, that is what I would use.
But bear in mind, you have people who think the answer to a mass murderer killing children is to establish a gun free zone around a school, and make the penalty a misdemeanor. How much do you think logic and white hot truth will affect those idiots? Liberals think differently. fMRI’s show their brains are lighting up differently. Psychological tests show different cognitive characteristics. Even MRIs of their brains show structural differences.
I suspect that the difference between us is, I ran into a gross defective, and saw just how differently another person can think. It can almost be like they are a different species, detached from logic. Once that happens, all the logic and white hot truth won’t do a thing. You need to know what hurts them, and how to apply it.
Just out of curiosity, do you have a really smart sibling?
I know you are trying to present a belief in a logical way, but would a true-blue liberal be convinced, who sees what your approach is? I haven't been very successful with persuading someone whose mind is already made up. Try any defiant oppositional type. Belief seems to be the issue. So, I've decided to stop wasting my time and theirs. If they will let me, that is.

Could be; depends in which dimension one defines "smart." Why do you ask?
