*dabs in gen z*
People are saying based ironically now
Woke....
Epic...
Tbh though we need normie-friendly adult words to replace based, cuck, woke, etc
@NateDahl76 Most people at this point, I would say. I certainly do, or least, semi-ironically.
Communicating our ideas to normies has become my top priority
We probably need to maintain multiple lexicons at any given time, just as we do now, and which one we utilize will depend on whom we're approaching.
black pill, new polls shift one lean GOP to toss up, and one toss up to lean DEM. Now 204 lean dems, 197 lean R, 34 tossups
>believing polls
Just gave a half hour lecture to a late 20s normie gal today
This blue wave is really something
Went pretty well. They walked away saying they disagreed with everything but that they saw my points
I'm going to count it as a win
@MrBland - VA nice job man!
She'll simmer on it for a while
generally how it goes... they can't refute any of the points but still feel inclined to disagree
Yep, the brainwashing is deep, I still fight it in myself to be honest.
@MrBland - VA You planted the seed *rubs hands vigorously*...
Hello my admirers, I know, I’m amazing. Give me praise, show me your offerings.
I get angry with myself everytime I'm hesitant to point out our country was founded as a white Christian nation, founded for whites.
@MrBland - VA if you're hesitant maybe your gut is telling you that it isn't the right approach at the right time
It's funny how hard it is to shake 40 years of brainwashing.
For example, I lead off with how increased immigration is pushing up rent and the cost of school enrollment. These are very concrete issues people worry about often.
I'd pull out that the country was founded by white christians for whites only when someone tries to trot "aren't we a nation of immigrants" line, but before that point it probably wouldn't be relevant
Oh the conversation was perfect; I asked questions and led her down a road. But thanks for the tips, those are solid.
thanks, and I'm glad to hear the convo went well
I just still have that tinge of white guilt I still find myself fighting to shake off at times.
yes asking questions and listening and letting them discover the points on their own is super impactful
@ThisIsChris lmao is that a betting site for politicians
@Jawa yeah it's super popular, and legal
I like it
Lol that’s funny as all hell
I’ll have to jump in on it
My sister is an overstressed/ underpaid school teacher but had an ah ah moment school districts will slow/stop growth without birth citizenship and she said she felt bad for wanting it. I told her not to feel bad.
@Jawa it's part of some university project because this kind of betting can be used as a way to get people to put their money on what they think is really going to happen, as opposed to talking head pundits who can say 20 different things 20 different days
That’s actually really cool
