HOW COLLECTIVISTS USE THE DIAMOND TACTIC TO SWAY PUBLIC MEETINGS AND HOW TO THWART THEM
Thanks, Slings and Arrows. Interesting article, indeed.
If everyone sits together at the SOTU, the Diamond tactic will be used visual, without any ability for opposition to provide a response. The picture book of images presented to those who are not savvy or aware of the propaganda will go down like fresh water to a thirsty man).
If Democrats rise, with Republicans, Tea Partiers and Independents remaining seated in between, will not the Democrats be seens as the positive ‘civil’ members being polite to the POTUS by definition?
If you were at a concert, and people started rising around you in a standing ovation, but you were not so convinced or even disagreed, would you, too, rise out of a sense of politeness? What VISUAL message does NOT doing that send?
You watch. The Dems will all wear the same color. White, or, gold. Or purple. Some red and blue combination that, when seen as a group on tv, has a scent of the American flag’s stars and stripes.
In short, the Dems will create a picture book, with the Republicans not rising in applause appearing rude, uncivil or otherwise simply NOT SEEN AT ALL.
Over years of government conferences and/or what ever I have experienced the Delphi technique being used. I always recognized the ‘facilitator’ scam but didn’t know it had a more basic name. Not having this in my education courses, I assume it is a poly sci or sociology thing. It is this deviousness of government this Nation is now going through.

OUTSTANDING POST!!! I put this into my tagline so (hopefully) more people will understand how this stuff works.
Use of the Internet short circuits these techniques, which is why the Internet seems so conservative, relative to the rest of the country. The fact is that the Internet IS the country, and reason why 70% or 80% can be against something like illegal immigration (yet nothing is done) is because of these tactics.
It is CRITICAL that people understand this stuff - so at least the liberals are less effective.
This is good- very good. I have actually seen this used in college classrooms, but didn’t know what it was.
Thank you.

Interesting. I wish I’d seen this a few years ago. Our township commissioners and school board have pushed through a number of very expensive initiatives. They have made extensive use of outside consultants and ‘public input’ sessions.

Along the lines of this thread is an interesting article on how it’s being done with today’s new media:

In fact, I have wondered, on some topics, where people seemed so solidly behind an irrational cause, whether the person on the other side wasn’t someone from the governor’s office. I’ll never know...but it would not surprise me a bit.
Ping!
