Left over programming from their vulnerable days of grade school and our great escapade to defeat America's biggest enemy, bullying. Well at least that's what the TV said. That movement came right after the drug free red ribbon thingy. So that word bully takes them back to their worst days of being in fear of what they believed to be the their greatest enemy ever. The grade school bully. They want as far away from that title as possible. Its literally worst than Hitler in their little hearts and subconscious.
The problem with anti bullying is the same with states that don't have stand your ground or castle laws. The victim is always punished more for defending themselves than the bully ever is.
In middle school, one day I actually fought my bully back, left him a crying and bruised mess. The principal took me in, ex military, told me I had to be punished but that I did the right thing and spent about a half hour talking to me about his school days and the mental side of fighting
Same story here bud. I handled a bully in highschool 2003. Principal was happy as shit. Even happier I was nice to the guy and didn't bully back. Still had to suspend me and I also got assault charges that came with 6months probabtion and i had to write a big ass essay about violence.
Fiance apparently reduced a bully to a sobbing mess without laying a hand on them. Principal was like, "I don't know what you did, but fix it," after they found the person blubbering in a closet.
This and their entire perspective of the world has been defined to be a pecking order of where people are regarding institutional power and its abuse. Bullying and “punching down” on someone is a big no-no, unless when they do it. But even then, if they’re in the process of doing it and you call them out on it it will cause a brief crack in their cognitive dissonance... enough that they may back off.
In my day nothing was done about real bullying. My life was threatened on more than one occassion for speaking out against drugs and alcohol (my dad was a major alcoholic whom I wasn’t allowed to see or contact during my teen years) when I was in high school because of police busting parties where drugs and underage drinking were I was automatically blamed for things I had no knowledge of.
I was told by my parents (mom and stepdad) that under no circumstances was I ever to fight back even under circumstances such as kidnapping or rape (their school of thought was that it would get you killed). I know they were dead wrong now.
I agree OP. I also like to remind lefties, "you are closed minded". I get about a 15% chance of making them think a little more and an 85% chance of being triggered. Win/Win
EDIT: If there is one Alinsky rule we should all adopt, its "us their rules against them".
Ironically, I had a similar situation, only from the right. I'm a staunch MAGA America First person now. However, I used to think I had to choose a side, R or D. At first blush I thought Trump stood no chance in hell. Too rough around the edges and insulting, blah, blah, blah. As he started taking out one R after another, winnowing down 17 other candidates, I was like holy shit, this dude is the boss! I went from hating his persona to absolutely loving it.
About that time, someone shared the George Carlin video, "The Big Club" with me. That shit woke me up in a heartbeat. I realized that the two party system was a complete lie. It's one of those things where once you see it, you can't un-see it. Its a permanent understanding.
Then the 2016 RNC convention came up. And, guess who wasn't there? No former Republican presidents or Republican presidential nominees, except for Bob Dole. That means, no Bushes, no Romney, no McCain, none of them. Even John Kasich, the current Republican governor of OH at the time (the convention was held in Cleveland, OH) wasn't there.
I was like holy shit! The Big Club is definitely real. The R's are trying to sink the People's choice for Republican nominee for president.
It confirmed for me that we are run by a one party system with the illusion of choice. Even if we had two legitimate parties, we still wouldn't get to choose our candidate, the parties choose their candidate and only then we get to vote. See your Bernie experience above. The party chose Hillary, even though the people wanted Bernie.
When I voted for Trump in 2016 I voted for the biggest bull in the china shop the world has ever seen. Did we ever get that. He shattered the illusion of the two party system once and for all. Thanks to 2020 we now see how corrupt our elections are. How corrupt our media is. How corrupt our big businesses are. And how corrupt big tech is.
The curtain has been pulled back once and for all.
To save our country both Democrats and RINOs must be destroyed.
Haha, man I am exactly like you. I was so devastated when that Bitch cheated Bernie. I was more interested in the candidates than the political process, so the transition to Trump was easy for me.
Isn't it beautiful how a good solid redpill moment is like a domino effect? Afterwards, everything else you observe or remember starts to piece together until BOOM you are on the other side of the river wondering why your undies are soaking wet but your pants are dry...
I had a similar trajectory. I was a Bernie true believer, but in my defense he had some ok talking points on NAFTA and TPP. It turns out he was full of shit but I was with some buddies after watching them cheat Bernie in broad daylight and we said, "Maybe we should check Trump out. That seems to be where the real movement is happening."
I had a short stint working for an Establishment Dem campaign after all of that. I actually used the phrase "Social Justice" in my interview. I still cringe.
It took about a month or two for me to see just how nasty they were. How they talked about their voters. How brazen they were with lying about people. I watched them sling some shit at a former military person knowing damn well it was bullshit, demeaning his service. Basically calling him a coward. It was horrible.
I watched them tell pensioners that the fund was broke, expect to lose your benefits, and Obama said it wasn't politically expedient to push a bail out. Their entire attitude was "Well yeah, we are fucking you over, but what are you gonna do, vote for Trump?"
It turns out that is exactly what they did. Trumps pitch was, "What do you have to lose?"
Trump delivered on all the promises they kept making year after year with no intent of coming through. I don't regret my time in Bernie land because I got to see the country in a way most people don't campaigning across 10 states and most importantly, because even though she cheated we put a dent in the Side of Beef's momentum and I will never feel bad about that.
Rule 1: Power is not only what you have, but what an opponent thinks you have. If your organization is small, hide your numbers in the dark and raise a din that will make everyone think you have many more people than you do.
Rule 2: Never go outside the experience of your people.
The result is confusion, fear, and retreat.
Rule 3: Whenever possible, go outside the experience of an opponent. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat.
Rule 4: Make opponents live up to their own book of rules. "You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity."
Rule 5: Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It's hard to counterattack ridicule, and it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage.
Rule 6: A good tactic is one your people enjoy. "If your people aren't having a ball doing it, there is something very wrong with the tactic."
Rule 7: A tactic that drags on for too long becomes a drag. Commitment may become ritualistic as people turn to other issues.
Rule 8: Keep the pressure on. Use different tactics and actions and use all events of the period for your purpose. "The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this that will cause the opposition to react to your advantage."
Rule 9: The threat is more terrifying than the thing itself. When Alinsky leaked word that large numbers of poor people were going to tie up the washrooms of O'Hare Airport, Chicago city authorities quickly agreed to act on a longstanding commitment to a ghetto organization. They imagined the mayhem as thousands of passengers poured off airplanes to discover every washroom occupied. Then they imagined the international embarrassment and the damage to the city's reputation.
Rule 10: The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Avoid being trapped by an opponent or an interviewer who says, "Okay, what would you do?"
Rule 11: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, polarize it. Don't try to attack abstract corporations or bureaucracies. Identify a responsible individual. Ignore attempts to shift or spread the blame.
According to Alinsky, the main job of the organizer is to bait an opponent into reacting. "The enemy properly goaded and guided in his reaction will be your major strength."
Edit, whoops. The freeze the target rule is there, it is rule 11. I'll leave my comment up to show how important it is to pay attention ton and read carefully lest you make a fool of yourself. My bad frens.
Welcome. They are effective rules. I'm not sure if that list is complete, because I remember Bongino pointing out that one of the rules is to freeze a target and focus all of your attacks on that single target to eliminate them and land a blow on the opposition's morale.
If you spread yourself too thin attacking too many targets, you lose momentum.
The left did this to Flynn and many if the other notable cases like the Christian cake baker and others.
I may make a separate post with the rules so it gets more attention.
I love the I am undecided part dont bully. I was thinking of way to say it and here is the best one I came up with. I am pro choice and believe it is each individuals personal right to not have to share there medical info regardless of getting it or not. That way ur not coming off as anti vax and u use a term they know. Now I can add dont bully me
I remember when Ron Paul was campaigning in FL. We had pro-life people having reasonable conversations with others wearing a 'pro-choice on everything' shirts. Ron was the most bullied candidate that ever ran for President-.. This whole vaxx push just proves who are the bullies.
He single handedly yanked my head out of the sand in 2012. He was a softer spoken version of Trump. Unfortunately, the soft spoken nature was never going to pull us out of this mess.
"Bully" was a legit word invented for children's behavior, but the left co-opted it to apply to the adult world because they have to infantilize everything. So now, even though we're adults, we have to use this children's word against them because that's the world the left has created.
Thanks, I'll try it on my neighbor, a 100% dyed in the wool, hard core leftist who covers his yard with signs for Democrats running for election from dog catcher to President. He never met a Democrat he didn't like. Total fucking Communist if you ask me but, if we interact I'll be sure to work in the vaccine and the word...bully. I'm sure it will trigger him into a screaming match about BLM, how bad Trump is, etc, etc.
100%!
That's THEIR word to call US. In their minds, there's almost nothing worse than a big bad bully. I imagine it would silence them in shock at first and that right there is priceless. Thanks for the tip and I'll definitely be using it!
did anyone notice how the school shooting in Texas they said the guy he shot was targeting a bully to try to take the school shooters side? Then they were trying to say parents at school board meetings are bullies if the stand up for their children's rights... and Merrick Garland was trying to say these bullies standing up for rights are extremists... I'm sure u can see where this is going
“A vaccine passport that tracks our every move and shares our medical records with private corporations sound like just about the most anti-liberal thing I’ve ever heard of.”
You aren’t even taking a strong stance, so it’s hard for them to pin anything on you, and you are forcing them into arguing for the anti-liberal position.
No matter what angle they try, it’s easy to ignore and box them back into your frame. “Man, it sounds like you are a big big fan of these mega corporations. What - do you have some stock options in Big Pharma you aren’t telling me about?”
Normies and NPCs need you to repeat the official “right-wing” talking points as presented by the corporate media and if you sidestep those and even debate them from the left, their programming quickly unravels. They often get confused and stuck.
I haven’t used this one much, but if you want to argue against mask mandates, a way to do it from the left is to start speaking on behalf of the deaf, and how mask mandates have stripped their ability to function in the social world by reading lips. Tell these maskers they are forcing the deaf to live in a world of even worse silence and isolation than they already do. Most NPCs haven’t even thought about the deaf once during this entire plandemic - this exposes that, and beautifully so because the deaf were one of the original actual protected disability groups, and this shows how far “Liberals” have strayed in their dogma. This allows you to frame them as cruel, selfish, corporate footsoldiers.
Yes I’ve noticed this too and like I say, I have only shared the deaf argument with like-minded people. For them it’s another lightbulb moment, but in the direction they are already moving. I think one reason I haven’t relied on the deaf angle is I’ve felt they will dismiss it even though it makes a ton of sense. I also think sometimes the stronger the argument (at least logically) the more flippantly they will dismiss it because on some level that’s their best move. They don’t want to be in a position of arguing against the deaf so they don’t want to get into it. The one time I felt the deaf angle would really work was the Tik Tok video of the deaf woman in her car crying after being refused service. I know a lot of liberals were mocking her, but one on one with someone, I think the emotion there could have been effective.
I really like the “bully” angle though. I think it’s ridiculous when adults use the word “bullying” but I definitely sense how for them this word just stops them.
This. I have significant hearing loss to the point that i have hearing aids. The past year and a half has been hell. I look at lips to try and help distinguish what was actually said when my ears can't really tell the difference. Masks have been hell on the hearing impaired community.
Yep, and children between the ages of about 4 and 7 are being severely impaired in their speech development, since watching lips move is one of the ways (big ways) the human brain processes, anticipates, learns, and imitates speech. When that is cut off by these Covid zealots, the children’s development is severely impaired and it is being done at a crucial stage of brain development when those synapses and pathways are being formed. There is no excuse of “oh well, these kids will figure it out eventually” because those stages of development for the brain cannot be paused or repeated.

Or like the ring of power, "the one word to rule them all."

I saw enough being on Reddit for years to feel this way without ever being one haha
What was your red pill moment, rooftoptendie?
I'm curious what got you out of a 20 year hell.
Thanks for sharing!

Happened to me aswell early on it seems to be common when people actually hear trump speak and not what the media says he said
We should be using allof the rules.

Well, truth is on our side, yet we are losing on so many fronts because of these very tactics. Our side loses sponsorships, gets accounts purged, etc.
Our side and the left utilize different tactics and rules.
Uh, no..... we should adopt ALL the alinsky rules.
Fighting nice is why we lose.
AMEN!!!!
Thank You!
The Chinese have that rule as well. 'Strangle them with their own system.'
kek
It does! I remember when I called a lib friend a "Race Baiter", the look of fear on his face was crazy he stopped attacking and went into defending.
Took the fight right out of him! The fun part is that was my retort to him calling me a racist for wanting voter ID laws.
Like raising your hand and stopping bullets.
I love the I am undecided part dont bully. I was thinking of way to say it and here is the best one I came up with. I am pro choice and believe it is each individuals personal right to not have to share there medical info regardless of getting it or not.

Ron is super dangerous to them, he’s like a one-man Great Awakening
He single handedly yanked my head out of the sand in 2012. He was a softer spoken version of Trump. Unfortunately, the soft spoken nature was never going to pull us out of this mess.
Cuz, among other, uh, drawbacks, it’s not even a vaccine. 🤷♂️
It's like a time out word.

Lol, me too
I was sure it was “cuntbucket.”
I was evidently incorrect.
"Bully" was a legit word invented for children's behavior, but the left co-opted it to apply to the adult world because they have to infantilize everything. So now, even though we're adults, we have to use this children's word against them because that's the world the left has created.
Great post, OP.
Which is super ironic because leftists have become the bullies today.
It's really sadistic.
Ha! Ha!! I say the same thing and it works!! I think it saved my job after I requested a religious exemption🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Brainwashed" is my #1. After they get done arguing and glitching, I point out that "you wouldn't realize if you were, now would you?
Well bully for you sir!
Yay!
Oh, yeah, they don't like that word. Keep it up!!
Because they are that word.
Or, at least, want to be without realizing it.
Thanks, I'll try it on my neighbor, a 100% dyed in the wool, hard core leftist who covers his yard with signs for Democrats running for election from dog catcher to President. He never met a Democrat he didn't like. Total fucking Communist if you ask me but, if we interact I'll be sure to work in the vaccine and the word...bully. I'm sure it will trigger him into a screaming match about BLM, how bad Trump is, etc, etc.
Good find!! I can totally visualize their reaction to being called out that way.
100%! That's THEIR word to call US. In their minds, there's almost nothing worse than a big bad bully. I imagine it would silence them in shock at first and that right there is priceless. Thanks for the tip and I'll definitely be using it!
They also dislike the words TRUTH and PROOF
If you’re gonna go there Plantmed, someone’s gonna need their safe space. 🤣
bully works good, i've also appropriately called them anti science (or science deniers), in particular with regard to ivermectin.
Oh boy. This is so spot on. Throw it right back at them.
did anyone notice how the school shooting in Texas they said the guy he shot was targeting a bully to try to take the school shooters side? Then they were trying to say parents at school board meetings are bullies if the stand up for their children's rights... and Merrick Garland was trying to say these bullies standing up for rights are extremists... I'm sure u can see where this is going
This is genius
Nice strategy It! strikes at the root of their victim mentality
Astute observation. No one likes to be bullied.
I also think a good sentence for normies is:
“A vaccine passport that tracks our every move and shares our medical records with private corporations sound like just about the most anti-liberal thing I’ve ever heard of.”
You aren’t even taking a strong stance, so it’s hard for them to pin anything on you, and you are forcing them into arguing for the anti-liberal position.
No matter what angle they try, it’s easy to ignore and box them back into your frame. “Man, it sounds like you are a big big fan of these mega corporations. What - do you have some stock options in Big Pharma you aren’t telling me about?”
Normies and NPCs need you to repeat the official “right-wing” talking points as presented by the corporate media and if you sidestep those and even debate them from the left, their programming quickly unravels. They often get confused and stuck.
I haven’t used this one much, but if you want to argue against mask mandates, a way to do it from the left is to start speaking on behalf of the deaf, and how mask mandates have stripped their ability to function in the social world by reading lips. Tell these maskers they are forcing the deaf to live in a world of even worse silence and isolation than they already do. Most NPCs haven’t even thought about the deaf once during this entire plandemic - this exposes that, and beautifully so because the deaf were one of the original actual protected disability groups, and this shows how far “Liberals” have strayed in their dogma. This allows you to frame them as cruel, selfish, corporate footsoldiers.
Yes I’ve noticed this too and like I say, I have only shared the deaf argument with like-minded people. For them it’s another lightbulb moment, but in the direction they are already moving. I think one reason I haven’t relied on the deaf angle is I’ve felt they will dismiss it even though it makes a ton of sense. I also think sometimes the stronger the argument (at least logically) the more flippantly they will dismiss it because on some level that’s their best move. They don’t want to be in a position of arguing against the deaf so they don’t want to get into it.

This. I have significant hearing loss to the point that i have hearing aids. The past year and a half has been hell. I look at lips to try and help distinguish what was actually said when my ears can't really tell the difference. Masks have been hell on the hearing impaired community.
Yep, and children between the ages of about 4 and 7 are being severely impaired in their speech development, since watching lips move is one of the ways (big ways) the human brain processes, anticipates, learns, and imitates speech. When that is cut off by these Covid zealots, the children’s development is severely impaired and it is being done at a crucial stage of brain development when those synapses and pathways are being formed. There is no excuse of “oh well, these kids will figure it out eventually” because those stages of development for the brain cannot be paused or repeated. It is a one-time event and these cruel and unusual mask mandates are creating permanent developmental damage.
I have a 4 year old whos speech is not where it should be. I would agree with what you state here.
Other than speech, he's quite bright and quick about his wits. His annunciation isn't where it should be though.
"My doctor told me" is a good one too
Agreed .. the word bully is really powerful and makes them feel like they have gone way too far!
K R Y P T O N I T E!!! use their little psyop against them. Couldn’t love it anymore than I do.
The word bully works because its such a juvenile word.
Thats my guess...
Nice. Will it work about masks as well?
