They are using story-telling to shape opinions that will favor their total control. That is smart, & if the Republicans do not wake up and fight back harder and longer, our freedoms will be lost. By "our" I mean the 99%. Dems will not get any preferential treatment after they take over.

In the meantime, twice as many people percentagewise have died from covid in red areas as opposed to blue. I never could figure out why republicans would intentionally want to put their voters in jeopardy for their lives by denying science, but here we are.

Kibby sees what I see. They've been at this for 90+ years, & they've almost got Americans boxed in to handing over our freedoms w/o a fight. Its happening so slowly, its hard to see.

The infiltration is so widespread, its almost futile to fight it. Americans, Independents, & Republicans are nearing a point of no return. Denying this, & calling the uber-left dumb, idiots, or stupid, is just our frustration at being beaten time and time again by smarter people...the uber-left leaders.

Their policies are not better for America or the American people, their policies are better for them, & their goal of takeover. They don't even try to hide it now because they know its most likely irreversible.

Freedom is in the clutches of a boa constrictor.

They ARE smart - they are the Elected Mafia and Republicans can't figure out how to get rid of the Infiltration that has infected our Government, our Judiciary and Law and Order groups.



BINGO - they are well organized on Campus and quick to Identify the people they want to rise up. They start by getting them involved in Campaigns and each Campaign is a rung up the ladder of Leftism.
Then they get low level Government jobs and keep climbing the ladder until they take over Agencies.

Only one way to reverse this -- Government Unions have to be made Illegal, then and only then - can the Infiltration be slowly eliminated. Right now -- NONE of them can be fired.

Did you find "the summer of love" and all the rioting, looting, vandalizing, murdering to be "wildly entertaining? I ask because of those things you mentioned don't even compare to what antifa and BLM did during the "summer of love".

Proof to young voters accounting for a couple million votes?

Interesting, as I know young folks that aren’t entitled, don’t expect folks to take care of them, wouldn’t think of voting Dem, and some are my relatives. Proof to kids not wanting anything to do with Republicans and the number should grow by a couple million?

Are you predicting Dems don’t lose the House?

Agreed, but they are winning bigly...see my list in post #1. Their leadership is smarter than ours, and more determined.

We need to stop just solving problems with proposed solutions...that is a losing hand.

We must sell comfort to emotional needs, while solving problems in the background...in a way that makes everyone feel better. I know that sounds very foreign and strange, but that is the reality, and that is how we are losing so badly. Humans are emotional beings first, & political policy must reflect that.

Bingo…and let’s not forget damages to the tune of $2B.

It's impossible for the employee at the customer service desk to explain the details of the facts to all the customers, about how out of line and fraudulent the screaming woman's accusations are.

It's the same way the left wins so many votes on bills in congress. The dems are famous for giving misleading names to bills like "Helping defenseless babies bill." It takes less than five seconds, and a short newspaper headline, to damn Republicans for voting against the "Helping defenseless babies bill." Who the hell can oppose helpless babies?

But it will take quite a few pages for Republicans to list how this bill does nothing to help babies, and how it's actually all a subterfuge so the dems can use billions in taxpayer monies to reward their political and corporate cronies, enrich their special interest groups, while punishing their political enemies.
Correct! that is just 1 example of how they manipulate using emotions and language. They are master story tellers who choose every word to manipulate their audiences emotions.

If Republicans do not learn how to do the same, and even better, freedom will be lost. The uber-left has at least a 90 year jump on us, so we had better start now.

Every message, word, image, video, Tweet, coming from anyone on the right must 1st address some emotional need, BEFORE it addresses anything else.. even a basic bodily need.

The left messages in total unity across all platforms, so the audience is receiving it everywhere they turn, which makes it appear irrefutable. The Right must organize in the same fashion...unless somebody out there has a better proven plan.

The uber'lefts leaders are not stupid, idiots, dumb, or anything of that sort. They have outsmarted the right and taken over much of American society.

The liberal followers, their voters, are emotionally vulnerable people, and they are being exploited.

WE must seperate these 2 distinct groups, & how they interact, to understand our opponent.

We are being outsmarted by a very small group of very smart and determined people who have been at this since ~1930.

Speaking of movie, the communist movement got its strong hold in Hollywood in 1930:

By the 1950's, they were beig exposed, and flushed out, but they just kept coming back.
