Refuse to Let the Regime Media Make You Submit

The primary debate weapon system employed by leftists and leftist-adjacent minions is not arguing the truth; it’s social coercion designed to get you to stop talking. It’s the idea that they can shame you into conformity, that they can guilt you into concurrence, that they can browbeat you into submission. But they can only do that with your collaboration, so the response is obvious. Don’t collaborate. Understand that everything the leftists say is a lie, that everything they say is utterly morally bankrupt, and that you definitely do not gotta hand it to ’em. That’s the beauty of Donald Trump. He goes full honey badger. He doesn’t care. He doesn’t accept their premises and laughs off their epithets. It drives them crazy that he just rejects them out of hand and ignores the social backlash against him. It drives them crazy that he doesn’t mind that they say he’s a bad person. He just bulldozes right through them.
And that’s what you need to do, too.
I spent 30 years as a trial lawyer arguing with people, often very smart people who could present coherent and compelling cases based on facts, laws, and evidence. It’s a pleasure to argue against somebody smart. It is also uncommon. Much of the time, the other lawyer was a mediocrity who was unable to present a compelling case even when he/she/they had a good case to present. That was good for my clients but not particularly entertaining for me. And then there were the times when I was facing an idiot who practiced out of a van down by the river and, when his/her/their ridiculous case was being laughed out of court, he/she/they would proceed to pound on the table and bellow in outrage that I dared to point out that not only was the emperor not wearing any clothes, His Majesty wasn’t packing much in the manhood department either.
