Make a habit of reading takes (from reputable / serious sources) that you think you'll disagree with.

Even if it doesn't change your mind, you will understand other people's POV. This is very important for understanding your own stance better and finding flaws and uncertainties in it.

It also tends to humanise "the other side" (whoever that is for you), which makes it easier to have a constructive argument rather than meaningless fights.
