“The left has always excelled at using cultural technology like this in its culture wars. It studies the mechanics of how people can be convinced of something with far more intense interest than any car salesman. It is not interested in winning the debate, but in rigging the debate. It does not want to convince you that it is right, but to change you into the sort of person who innately understands that it is right.”

Thanks for that link. It leads to a truly outstanding article. It gets to the heart of our “messaging” problem.

[[It is not interested in winning the debate, but in rigging the debate. It does not want to convince you that it is right, but to change you into the sort of person who innately understands that it is right]]

I’d change thast just a little to read “They are not itnerested in winning a debate, but rather in forcing you to comply with hteirt ideology by making you feel guilty for not beleivign the way they do”

That is what the left excells at- that is the tactic of Satan- making peopel feel guilty for not acceptign SIN- makign htem feel like bigots and haters for not accepting ‘alternative lifestyles of peopel that ‘just want ot coexist together in a ‘loving’ relationship”

See how they do that? They make you seem like you don’t like love, that you’re anti-love- that you despise peopel who ‘aren’t hurtign anyone- and who simply want ot be left alone and left to lvie hteir lives in a ‘lovign relationship’

You are made to be the bad guy for opposing hteir lifestyle- that is how they win debates- Just like hte add where an acgtor pretendign to be Paul Ryan pushes a granny in a wheelchair oveer the cliff- They made it appear like ryan hated old people- and it was effective-
