How Politicians divide and conquer

https://bigthink.com/the-present/politics-2637000462/

BILL EDDY: So high-conflict politicians — or what I call "wannabe kings"— because that's really what they want. They want to take over and eliminate opposition. How they effectively gain power in an election — and we're not talking about people that just became dictators from a war or something. We're talking about people getting elected. And what happens is they put out all this emotional message — all these emotional words. And these emotional words tend to trigger people into four different groups.

The whole article is pretty interesting.

Thoughts?

He broke it down very well with the four groups and how that helps someone without the majority support to still win, if they can play the game well enough.

-Loving Loyalist
-Riled up resisters
-Mild Moderates
-Disenchanted dropouts

Remember when Justin Trudeau told a jewish woman with holocaust survivor family that she was on the side of Nazi's when she called for reigning in the rhetorical alarmism against the Freedom Convoy?

What is that if not an emotional appeal? A disgusting one, that he should have known better then to play.

And yet he would be perfectly justified in competing over the cookie.

It's the only thing he can control. Robber Barons will be robber barons.

Robber barons be Jews... According to Hitler 😅

Or Kwasi, the man who wrecked the UK economy...

So did Keynes....

If people only complain about rich jews, have at them.

The fact some robber barons might be jews does not equal anti-Semitism. If it did, who could complain about robber barons and not be an anti-semite?

It's the Rothschild dynasty. They apparently funded countries during the Napoleonic wars. The conspiracy theory is they also control the Federal Reserve, the bank of England and the bank of Europe.

Do you read manga?

Fist of the Blue Sky had a plot point about pre World War 2 Shanghai being seen as a safe haven for all Jews. They actually had a Chinese official say "If not for funding from Jewish bankers in America, we never could have even fought a war against our enemies"

I thought Rothschild's were British? Wonder who could have been in America in WW2 with that kind of cash?

Yes, yes. They are god's chosen people...
