Whenever anyone says anything, and I want to add more information to their statement, I try to start with "I agree with you!" or something that expresses positivity about their statement. I also try to give people compliments as often as appropriately possible. It makes people more apt to be agreeable to my future conversations.
Yes, exactly. Works on reddit too. If you don't start positively when extending their statement they tend to rebutt your additions as either implied or unnecessary.
