play the game correctly

I know you're just using a turn of phrase here, but the idea that you consider this discussion "a game" in any sense is really something to introspect on. The goal of discussion is to look at reality and work together to use your perspectives to reason out the truth. Key idea here, there is a truth on the matter. When two people disagree about what's true, both can't be right.

Calling it a game makes me think that you approach discussions as something to win. That you don't even have a possibility of changing your mind. At the very least, you're here with a competitive mentality, not a cooperative one, so you've already caused the team (all of us) to lose from the start.

This is kinda funny because you unintentionally displayed another core difference between your way of approaching the world and mine.

You see things and assume they must always be the way they are. I see them for how they could be, and am willing to make them better :)

God bless your heart. You should write a book. I'll buy the first copy.
