the pen is mightier than the sword you win with reason and logic
thats how people take your side
don't stoop to the level of an idiot though, he will beat you with experience
Yes. But the propaganda machine has bigger pens with better ink
> don't stoop to the level of an idiot though, he will beat you with experience
@mightytrump who will beat me with experience
@Reedy777s stooping to idiots who fail to see the point means you lose because you fail to connect
> Yes. But the propaganda machine has bigger pens with better ink
@isoboto you cant unsee the truth
> @isoboto you cant unsee the truth
@Reedy777s but the lies are much easier to swallow

@mightytrump thats a you problem if you cant explain it you need to articulate yourself better
not necessarily. if people are not wanting to change their mind you can't articulate or argue and "help" them see the light.
its easier to fool someone than to convince someone they have been fooled
Some people are too manipulated and brainwashed to even believe in the truth anymore.
but thats what a mean they gaslight you to send you in with a chip on your shoulder so your already the bad guy before you start whose gonna take your side
> its easier to fool someone than to convince someone they have been fooled
@mightytrump yup. the more you told them "You're being fooled" they will dig their heels in
no one

@Reedy777s yourself. believe in what you believe in
yes but that not how democracy works you need to convince other people
if you feel strongly about an issue you speak strongly about it
> if you feel strongly about an issue you speak strongly about it
@mightytrump you dont have to shout that the sky is blue you just say it because its the truth remember that
woke lefties will say its not blue
@Reedy777s i may be yelling but i am not shouting. its a whole other thing to start using children as pawns. its incredibly damaging and sets a dangerous precedent
and leave it at that
> yes but that not how democracy works you need to convince other people
@Reedy777s i think you look at the world a bit too 2-dimensional. logic and facts don't necessarily convince people. in fact, you can google anything and have an article that support your thesis. so you can't always rely on facts. it's also emotional appeals. that's why the climate change crisis took off -- fear is a huge driving factor. again, that being said, some people seek out new information and they're capable of changing their mind. secondly, democracy isn't convincing others -- it's about give-and-take. You and I may have differences but we will work within our similarities to achieve a common goal
> @mightytrump you dont have to shout that the sky is blue you just say it because its the truth remember that
@Reedy777s *technically* the sky is colourless. It's the air make-up that the sunlight passed through that made it blue/red/etc.

@mightytrump i know this but i also know how this game works composure is king you dont need to fight for the truth it speaks for itself just simply state it and leave it at that
lefties always portray themselves as smart because they have a fancy degree in something so they must think they will have a really good political opinion

@isoboto yes thats called emotional hijacking
nope. hijacking is too strong of a word. we're constantly making irrational decision and then justified it. we make our choices based on feelings.
only if you allow youself to emotionally hijacked
that's impossible. take hypnosis, for example -- the people who claim they are resistant to hypnosis are easier to be hypnotized. similarly, the people who viewed themselves as more educated are easier to indoctrinated
that's called an emotional decision as opposed to an intellectual one and is normally followed by regret or remorse when our intellectual reasoning catches up
see and thats sign of imaturity
"educated" means you accepted my dogma
like "you need to be educated"
education allows you to make you own decisions and opinions
its in the context of snobby leftists
who ironically are the least educated
indoctrination is a seperate matter
that is the process of getting someone to accept propaganda as truth
> that's called an emotional decision as opposed to an intellectual one and is normally followed by regret or remorse when our intellectual reasoning catches up
@Reedy777s not really. all of your choices are irrational and your brain will bend backward to rationalize it. if the "intellectual choice" and "facts and logic works" then everybody would agree with each other. yet you have academic disputes or people disagreeing on how things function
