If you are brutal, cold and go straight to the point (and you are right on your idea, aspie power inside) you give to your opponent's defense mechanism an incentive to think that you are a very bad person
If you are cordial and fair, don't go straight to the conclusion but let him insert some arguments in the debate (and you are right on your idea, aspie power inside) he will have only his defeat left.
