    Thanks for the clarifying reference! As someone who has watched a lot of apologetics debates in religion, the smaller version of this technique is called the Gish Gallup.

    There’s not a lot that we the average people can do against the State directly, who can weaponize the media itself, but we can work locally with our peers. If you are able to have a dialogue, you can use grounding techniques to guide people to see the flaws.

    Deep Canvassing is effective for overcoming party loyalty and ingrained ideologies, as well.

    All of this sucks, but we’re not powerless!
