Old tactics new labels - What can be done to promote thought ?

Question

The Jews are controlling all the money bankrupting Germany etc
Well I don't think they are as evil as you say - putting them in camps is not the answer
Well thats because you love Germany's enemies Jew loving traitor - maybe you'd feel better living with them in the special Jew camp ?
No, no your right they are as evil as you say they are
This Iraq war is a stupid - -- unpatriotic lib traitor that hates America
Maybe killing homosexuals isn't "right" - G@y loving **** - wow maybe you'd like some huh ?
All muslims are not terrorists - Rag head loving traitor what next going to kill Americans if it were up to you we'd all be in Burka's
The above tactics are very old - How do we win out against them and promote thought discussion and so forth and not fall back into the fear based "with us or against us" mentality ?

We have in the past fought the label - good for short term but how about the very formula of the tactic itself ?


(Insert group A good people) - (insert enemy group B )acuse opposition of treason -

If you do not agree with us mistreating group B then your our enemy want that ?

Answer 1

Promoting thought is like leading the proverbial horse. You can put all the facts in front of everyone but until someone is looking for facts.....

Most here on Y!A aren't looking for facts, they're looking out for facts while they make every attempt to "gotcha" the other side.

Good question though!
