In one form or another I've puzzled and pried for an answer, _any_ answer, that explains the motivation of an average citizen who parrots the Left's screed, who believes what their television tells them to, all the while and generally, managing to hide any signs of suffering from cognitive dissonance.
I have at more times than one, become frustrated and simply thought of them as "fools", "intellectual pigmies", "ignoramuses", "immature cowards", and then, in my darkest fugues (in D minor no less) I occasionally default to "Satan's Useful Idiots".
But as mildly cathartic as this might be, what does it explain? Not much.
Why bother "worrying" about it?
For me, an effort to understand from where the "enemy" might come, how and why they order battle as they do, is something that must be undertaken _if_ they are to be met and defeated. Peacefully. Before we have to engage in gunfire.
What is it they say? Good Generals understand tactics and strategy, great General understand logistics... ?
And I agree, arguing with a Lefty is like wrestling with a pig in mud on a hot day. You come to the realization that both enjoy it. Facts on the ground apparently lose to emotions in the mud - every time.
So what about the emotional logistics that supply Lefty troops and sustains them through minefields of fact and direct observation?
Does countering the Left successfully hinge on something other than rational, fact-based arguments that Aristotle would work with?
Is there a key(s) to unlocking the emotional components of a Lefty's mind that we can grasp and carry into battle? Used to capture, not kill?
Can we understand and disrupt the emotional logistics that enable our Rulers to hold so many on thrall?
Please.
Help me on this one if you've any ideas.
But not until your seed orders are in and you've stockpiled the projected fertilizer needs over and above compost values.
