and the right-wing can stop when its over
the lefties can only cry moar
I read a nice bog post once. Argued the fastest way for the right to shut down all the campus shout downs would be for every right-leaning group to gang up and get a list of left-leaning speakers on campus and then just disrupt it with chants of "This is what you do to us!" whenever given the chance.
yeah
or even better
like i said many times, and tim pool too recently said it too
just accuse someone of being a right-wing infiltrator in the mob
and the mob will throw them out, cuz they dont know, they just follow
Indeed.
i mean, their own tactics work against them
because their tactics are everything they hate,
They just use them cuz its okay for them when they use it to beat nazis
HEIL TIMTLER
mobbing will make them all panicky and crying for safe-space
purity-test will make them eat their own
false accusations will work if you just pretend to be one of them
It gets worse. I suspect most of them can't empathize or understand their enemies. But their enemies understand them.
That's a natural situation for infiltration.
they can, they choose not to
they fear the purity test
I dunno how capable they are.
cuz once you fail, you're out
some are indeed stupid
The tribe has spoken, you must go now.
It's morally repugnant for a lot of them to identify with their opponents.
Some can. But not all.
More importantly, it makes it plausible to create a shibboleth.
Which grants operational information asymmetry.
At least in theory. I might be missing something.
identify with your opponents makes you impure
and will guarantee fail you the purity test
Right.
and they fear it
cuz that test has no re-trys
But here's the idea. Suppose you find a person and want to know where they stand.
if you are deemed impure, you're out
and doubt is all you need to become impure
You start with something small and subtle and work on down and see where you get pushback.
And then eventually you ask if the person you're talking to can summarize without prejudice the opinions of X. Where X is some fairly mainstream right-of-center character.
If they start characterizing them as moral evil...
Wouldn't it undermine both sides if they're all using the same tactics though
You know they aren't completely in the mob, but they aren't an ally
Yes.
And No.
