You're welcome. Here's the Can't Stump the Trump # 4. https://youtu.be/MKH6PAoUuD0
Pede is short for Centipede from a video series, Can't Stump the Trump which was big during Trump's primary candidacy in 2016. If you can find the series, it was the 4th video in the series that kicked off the Centipede meme and it stuck, then got shortened to Pede.
TDS is Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The biggest thing that turns me off about the left is that if you aren't 100% on their team, you're evil, and nothing you say about anything anywhere else matters.
Crenshaw comes right out and admits that he disagrees with Trump on some policies, agrees on others. The whole difference between the left and the right is that not everything needs to be enemy/friend and no middle ground. It's instead about ideas.
Which of the ideas presented in THIS video do you disagree with Crenshaw on? Or is it simply a matter that if someone isn't with you on 100% of everything then you don't want their support on anything?
I just watched not just that video, but the one he linked to. Sobering ideas. Maybe the entire rabbit hole isn't sound. It might be but I wasn't fully convinced. But I was convinced that there's something rotten in Wuhan and the Fauci connections. It gets even worse when you add in the Media's bias, even beyond their TDS. There's a clear plot to take over our medical future.
I picked up the trick for catching liars and deluded people years ago listening to an audio book of Douglas Adams' book, "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detection Agency".
A couple of times in the book he used the word, "disproportionate" to point out any time someone was acting due to hidden motivations, or even hidden programming.
Any time I see someone respond in a way that is disproportionate to the situation I take notices. And the way news reporters, Hollywood stars and tech leaders have responded to Donald Trump has taken Disproportionate to a level I hadn't seen in my now senior-citizen life span.
The key takeaway in the book was that any time someone's actions were way out of scale for the situation at hand it is a signal that someone else is pulling the strings. It may be hypnosis or long-term mind conditioning,or orders from someone behind the scenes, but it is not the response of an honest free agent.
Someone who is acting freely and honestly needn't act disproportionately. They don't have to respond to a disagreement with hatred or rage.
I went into 2015 thinking the Republican party was the party of free enterprise, the Democrat party was the party of free-loaders and the media was the well-meaning but naive arbiters who had a slight free-loader slant. By the end of 2017 I'd been duped for the last 50 years, that all the gate-keepers of information have been lying the whole time.
We\re all being played, almost all of us. Only a small handful of people have managed to see behind the curtains and even fewer have managed to succeed on a massive scale without being pulled into and becoming slaves to this Matrix-like conspiracy.
What has always gnawed at me was that I lived through the ridiculous pace of technological and economic progress of the 1960s and knew enough history to see how ridiculously far we'd come by 1972, but somehow, right around 1972, it all slowed way down and has been at a relative snails pace ever since.
I think "Globalist" is just the current phase. I think the puppeteers have been using different tools and intermediate goals all along the way. The end-game isn't globalism. That's just the means to an end. The end game is nepotism and dynastic rule. The "elites" are just conniving to win back the world their ancestors had where merit, skill and productivity were but slaves to birthright, title and aristocracy.
For decades those families who wish to regain a servant-class have been honing their strategy to make it happen. Globalism is just one of today's tactics. President Trump is the first honest man to come along who had enough skill, drive and patience to figure out how to beat them.
And I think you're absolutely right that their current leadership are that generation that got too over-confident and too sure of themselves and they thought they had us all duped. And they'd have gotten away with it too if it weren't for Donald J. Trump. But all he can do, being but one man, is expose the game they've been playing to those few of us who are aware enough to understand. It's up to us to get the message out to those who were even more duped than we (speaking for myself but I think a lot of us as well) were.
We have to take our future back one media outlet, one local school system, one newspaper, one movie entertainment piece at a time. We have to take back our culture and get America back on the path of being the land of free, responsible, ambitious.and morally good people.
What made America great wasn't where we reached, but where we were always going. Where we were going is a place where anyone, no matter how lowly born, had the potential to reach for the stars and where anyone, no matter how high their birth, was as responsible for their actions and as subject to the laws and rules of the rest of us. And both of those are what the "elite" plot day and night to destroy.
Seeing how deeply the "republicans are cockroaches" mind control had taken hold was the hardest part of the 2016 election cycle for me. I saw people who I grew up with, who I knew as good people becoming openly gas-chamber pro toward first Ben Carson, then Donald Trump, and then finally to anyone who supported Donald Trump. It was a shock to my system.
I knew these people during their formative years, back all the way to elementary school Nothing about them, then prepared me for their level of hatred now. A couple, very few I managed to have conversations with, for a while. They were very troubled, internally. Before they eventually ended contact with me I could tell that they were dealing with the huge cognitive dissonance. It's extremely difficult for people to believe that they've been duped so completely and so successfully as they have been.
Make no mistake about this. The people at the top have gone to extreme lengths to master programming other people's minds and emotions. They take over every institution that conditions people to feel what they want them to feel, to believe what they want them to believe.
They've taken over as much of the school system as they can, as much of mass media as they can. And they've honed their craft for decades.
The personalization that exists in online media is perfectly designed to not just run the best possible marketing tricks against people, but the ones that work best on each person's individual weaknesses.
The thing people forget about media and entertainment is what their main skill is. Their main skill is manipulating people's emotions. The only defense against such manipulation is an education that teaches people how to tell truth from fiction. Such an education would need to stress history so that people knew all the ideas that seem attractive on the surface but failed miserably when tried, and to know enough logic and math to recognize faulty arguments and bad statistics.
This is why they needed to accomplish taking over education, so that it would be possible to keep people in the dark and to easily mislead them.
I definitely don't give these rank-and-file people a pass, but I do understand what tricks were played on them. These are tricks that have been perfected since World Wars,
Prior to the World Wars, military targets were similar to archery targets, with a bulls eye. But during the war they learned that people.who could easily hit a bulls eye often couldn't bring themselves to shoot a human beings. So instead the concentric circle targets were replaced with human formed targets. And they are careful during training, to refer to them as targets so that they can be depersonalized.
People are being conditioned, and it's being done deliberately and skillfully. It is going to take some time to regain the culture because they spent decades taking it over.
We seem to have no choice but to be as extreme as they've been in taking back the culture and restoring it to honest. They did it by targeting all the positions of influence and once in, only hiring people and only promote people who toed their propaganda line. We seem to be forced to do the same thing.
When they started this effort they started on the outside and at the bottom, but theyve been relentless. We're now, in most spheres, on the outside and at the bottom, (in schools, media and, unfortunately finance and high-tech) but they've proven it can be done. Now we need to do it.
They are fighting for their livelihoods. There is no way they will give up. They have to be totally defeated. As long as they have any power at all, political, mass-media or even persuasiveness, they will use it to try to retain the great "low effort, high reward" life they've been accustomed to.
They have to be totally defeated before we'll get any rest at all. We have to destroy their political, mass-media and persuasion powers before we'll get any peace to live our lives productively and without these leeches stealing from us at every turn.
Watched her Dave Rubin interview. She tells how her red pill came when her Dox Online Bullies project kept being side-railed by the SJW Democrats who were claiming they'd been bullied online. She started being a victim of cancel culture when those people thought she had the technology and was about to expose them. She put 2 and 2 together and figured out they're probably weren't really bullies but were false-flags instead. (these are my words of her story).
Only other complaint I've seen against her since that time had to do with her trying to profit from something she was doing. Oh the horrors.
Look, from my vantage point she's gone too far over to the red-pilled side to be able to pull a bait and switch now. She's been battle tested in some pretty rough situations. I think she's OK.
And I really don't care, not for a minute, who some crazy uses as his inspiration. What a crazy person thinks about you is meaningless. Didn't Hinkley use Jody Foster as his inspiration?
This was obviously a deliberate distraction, the Dems knew exactly what was happening in China and worked to make sure it came here so we'd have what we now are experiencing
I was wondering why, when Pelosi was originally going to hold the articles until they had a new Senate, she suddenly changed her mind, even though she knew it would be killed in the Senate. I remember everyone was surprised when she decided to turn it over to the Senate. I'm thinking you might be right that this is why she decided to take it to the Senate when she did.
Don't be so sure this is price gouging. Selling something out of the warehouse for $20 and at normal rates of capacity is a different level than having to suddenly ramp capacity up a thousand fold. Try manufacturing something sometimes. How fast you have to make something has a huge effect on the cost. 50 fold? Well for a thousand-fold the normal production, yes.
You tube is charging a fee any time they let an advertiser advertise over a video someone uploads. That is a fee. It's the same as TV stations charging a fee by running ads on the TV shows you watch.
At there center, the core issue in monopoly laws is when a company users their dominance in an industry for any anti-competitive purpose besides serving their customers or making a profit. The general proof of anticompetitive practices is when a company reduces it's profit to harm another company in a non-competitive business. Microsoft, when they went after NetScape for instance. Microsoft wasn't in the browser business, but they undercut NetScape's business by using their high revenue and dominance in that industry to squeeze Netscape out.
Clearly they way YouTube is undercutting PragerU and Alex Jones are anti-competitive practices in which they intentionally accept lower profits in order to damage another business. They are absolutely the epitome of what anti-monopolistic laws were designed to avoid.
Thanks. I've been honing my skills online for a while and what I started looking for is how to make the argument one that puts the spotlight on the person or idea the 'liberal' thinks they are champion and showing how that person is being taken advantage of or that idea is being subverted.
I try to start my side of the conversation by being on their side of the fence. For instance, we know the media hates Trump, but that's not a place I can start with talking to liberals. I instead said, "The media knows that Trump hates them." This simple phrase is one he agree with. Then when I said, "That's why they'll never give him a break and will always paint him in the worst light possible." By simply starting from that point of agreement then I've given them a starting point that makes the media's response seem reasonable, even though we know that isn't their real motive. I've given them a plausible motive and one the guy listening to me could agree with.
But even with all my practice, and I've practiced a lot, I'm still not confident enough to be the one to broach a subject with someone under the media's spell. It's not easy but so far I've had entirely positive real-life responses. Even at the party where I knew 3 of the people were immigrants and 4 suffering TDS, it turned out better than I imagined. 2 of them later reached out to me, one on Facebook and the other by email and were friendly. The third I didn't have any reason to connect with, nor her with me, but she at least left the party smiling and being friendly. The host of the party is also an immigrant but all of them were legal so it was easier.
Another key thing is not to make the 'helpless' people the bad guys. Instead point out why business leaders want cheap labor and to avoid teaching their skills to someone with American ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit if they can instead have caste-system compliant labor. By pointing out the motives of the business leaders in preferring illegals (easier to control, pay less under the table and not cover their employer taxes) I've changed the villain to one liberals can accept as a villain.
And in dealing with race reparations I point out how the issue isn't at the graduate school level but the elementary school level where predominantly African American schools are suffering from the bigotry of low expectations and how Dr. Ben Carson's real activities that put him on the national political map, the activities the media chose not to emphasize is how he was bringing those community schools up to standards, improving their libraries, reading skills and knowledge of American civics, of business and science ideas. And how his HUD position was to spread out the housing so that, among other things, disadvantaged youths would be in good school districts rather than being huddled together.
People can be reached if they think you at least have similar emotions to them and care about similar people that they care about.
We have to play the long game, but it is definitely worth winning one person at a time.
I work in the USA in a factory with many people of foreign nationality, more foreign born than US born, and I too avoid offering up my politics, but what I have done is be an extremely hard and helpful worker to everyone and a few times politics have come up and here's how I handled 3 different situations. In one the guy I had worked with and helped out immensely started ranting to me about how Trump was in the pocket of Putin and I said, "You must be watching Fake News." He looked at me and didn't know what to say, but did know that I've helped him out of many jams in our fast paced work so just smiled and has stayed friendly ever since.
Another was afraid Trump was about to start World War 3 and I told him I'd looked into it as I had close relatives who might be eligible for the draft and taking Solemani (sp?) out was more likely to stop the need for war than to start it, and all of the Democrat candidates had said he should be taken out, even though they all had their separate reasons for why Trump did it wrong, they all agreed he was a danger to the USA and world and was responsible for killing many Americans. I also said, "Look, we know Trump hates the media because they were pushing for Hillary, and the media in turn hates him back. You have to take everything the media says about Trump with the understanding that they are going to try to put it in the worst light possible."
With a 3rd former Venezuelan who said that Venezuela's problems were due to the current leader, not the socialism, I said, "You think America has never had corrupt leaders? The whole problem with socialism is that it requires a continuous string of good leaders. It's only a system like America's built on a distrust of government and any 'Official' messages that can work well even with corrupt people in power."
In no case have I had to come out and say that I support Trump, but I did put doubts in their heads about the stories the media was telling them. It's starts with getting people to realize that the media lies for a reason.
But the bigger aspect is that they've seen that I'm a hard-working good person who legitimately tries to help them whenever I can that gives me license to not need to echo the left-wing BS.
There's another Hispanic US citizen friend who was complaining that his friend, an illegal who'd been working here for 20 years might end up deported. I asked, "How is it that he'd been working here for 20 years and still hadn't been able to gain citizenship?" He said, "He hasn't made enough money." I responded, "You don't see the connection of how he's being used? Don't you see that he's been held down all this time because he was on the fringes. How has that been a good life for him? Imagine had he instead worked to come here legally. Then no one could be taking advantage of him like this."
It's taken the better part of a year but I've convinced 2 people that formerly anti-Trumpers that Trump is a good president and worth voting for next time (2 actual citizens who can vote).
In another group of anti-Trumpers at a party of 10 where someone asked point-blank if there were any Trump voters here, I raised my hand proudly, prompting another guy to raise his hand sheepishly. Then I said, 'I've been watching Trump for over 30 years, including back when he had to fight the city to open the first resort in Palm Beach that admitted Black and Jewish people. I knew he was no racist. But what intrigued me is the extent powerful people have gone to to smear him. It's all spin and personal attacks, never substance. I really have been amazed at how many very powerful people have went out of their way to slander him without bringing up anything of substance behind their slander."
Someone responded, "What about what he said about Mexicans?" To which I said, "He specifically spoke of illegal immigrants. I watched his Dayton Ohio rally where a legal Mexican immigrant came on stage and not only did then-candidate Trump applaud him, so did the entire crowd. There is a difference in legal and illegal. For instance, the children of illegals do create a drain on school systems that legal immigrants and the children of people raised with American ideals do not. It's not just language either. Child marriage is common in Mexico. But here's the biggest issue. We are not proportionately importing business owners and entrepreneurs and the result is clear. Prior to the heavy use of illegals and loose work visas the path from poverty to wealth didn't have the gaping gaps that it does today. The average person could not only see themselves working their way into buying business owners. This is what we are losing." At another point I continued, "Who are these illegals working for? For employers who don't want employees who can climb the ladder, can learn and start their own businesses. They love the fact that they can underpay people in the fringes and not worry about it as the welfare program picks up the rest of their tab.
Point is, you have to think through your arguments in advance. The biggest one is to dispel the notion that Trump is a racist. The other big one is to point out how the media and lots of other powerful people oppose Trump's policies because the don't let them continue to take advantage of average people the way they have been.
It's not easy to get past Trump Derangement Syndrome. First you have to give people valid objective reasons to like you, else their ears are closed. But you can get past them.
One other argument I've been using to people is this. "What do media companies specialize in? They specialize in manipulating your emotions so that you'll buy things you don't need. That's their entire competition between each other. The biggest of the bunch will be the ones who manipulate your emotions the best. Don't be surprised that they make you feel a certain way. That is the skill they spend the most time honing."
I'm waiting for the take-home kits that do the analysis in my home and not on the internet so that the data is mine and only mine. I also don't like the fact that your get their "Analysis" not your actual genetic code, so you don't even get the data they do. (So I'm told, haven't done it and won't. These people aren't just hoarding data, they are social engineering by focusing on ancestry with dubious analysis)
I watched President Trump live and then, the next day, when people said President Trump talked about ingesting disinfectant, I was like, "What, when, where?" Then I searched as hard as I could and found nothing even remotely suggesting that. The problem was that I was searching in the wrong place, in Trump's actual speeches.
This was the final straw for me. (well, the hundredth one). Once again it is very clear that the media has no interest in public welfare or public information. They are simply doing everything in their power to microanalyze any message to find any possible angle, however contrived, to discredit President Trump and to mislead Americans.
What is discouraging to me is how many people who I know to be intelligent are falling for it. Though none who weren't already somewhat affected by TDS. Trump Derangement Syndrome is incredibly debilitating.
