Reasonable Democrats and Persuasion


Tired of beating your head against a wall?  Ian MacConnell at American Thinker has some ideas about how to persuade those of your friends who think the Democrat Party of today is the same one they grew up with -- and of course, it's not:

Here is the problem in a nutshell.  Most Democrat voters don't realize that leftist idealogues have hijacked the Democrat party, actively pushing traditional Democrat politicians out.  They don't yet understand that the Democrat party they knew doesn't exist anymore.  Almost all of the major news organizations work together to lie to Democrat voters and feed them misinformation constantly.  Corrupted government entities like the FBI and the DOJ, and the leftists running all social media, have worked together to censor and silence any dissenting voices.  The goal is to create a false reality in the eyes of Democrat voters and shield them from the truth.  This is vital to ensure their continued support on Election Day.

Most Democrat voters I talk to up here are comparatively normal, although deceived and misinformed.  Most of them don't seem to like leftists very much, though.  Many of them can't identify with their own party anymore and feel like displaced persons politically.  

. . .

I'm not saying we should waste our time trying to talk to people who wear "pussy hats" and take their toddlers to Drag Queen Story Hour.  Only a psychiatrist can help people like those.  I'm saying that we can, and we should, try to engage positively with reasonable Democrat voters about the current state of the country. 

. . .

Remember, we're trying to expose reasonable Democrat voters to truths the lying media never let them see, not win an argument. 

. . .

Mr MacConnell presents a number of questions – questions only – that a liberal who always votes “D” might think about.  Mr MacConnell's full column is here

And as I’ve been saying for years to anyone who will listen:  expand your sources of news.  I always stand ready to share a list of news aggregators that reveal instantly to anyone just scanning the headlines that he/she is not getting news.  They are getting propaganda.
