“We want to enlighten our friends, not offend them, and the fact is that one cannot simultaneously insult and persuade people.”

Actually, this approach may work in a one-on-one situation, but one should keep in mind that rarely do you ever change a hardcore left-winger's mind - they are just too brainwashed. However, by making the hardcore left-winger look like the foaming-at-the-mouth fool that he is, you will help turn anyone else who is listening away from the left-winger's point of view.

One of the main ways that the Left lures people, especially the young ones, into their cult is by making their way seem like the cool way, as if all the cool people are lefties. Make the lefties seem uncool, and they lose their power. Make them seem weak (which is uncool to most people) and they lose power. When you argue with a left-winger while others are watching, always keep your cool while maintaining an attitude of laughing contempt for the lefty. It will drive him insane.

I think you’re right about the hardcore left-wingers. No amount of facts and reason can reach their thick skulls. And you’re right too that keeping your calm drives them nuts! LOL
