RE: NO HEROICS

I think there has to be a change of culture for there to be a political change. It's not that culture necessarily needs to change before politics but things need to change together. If you liberate people too quickly, they suffer from a growth panic and run back to the oppressor.

Sort:  

What if most oppose being liberated?

They do.

That's why we must adopt some of the tactics of CON-ARTISTS in order to "convince" people they need to adopt RCV and HOLACRACY.

After watching that series of videos you asked about, the first question that comes to mind is how would one do that while maintaining a neutral position?

By communicating verifiable facts based on identifiable AXIOMS.

If you package them in a few logical fallacies (con-artist tactics) here and there, then you're prepared to pounce on anyone intelligent enough to critique.

I HATE the "noble lie".

I can see a case for the "noble fallacy" (good information communicated poorly).

But only as a bridge to communicating verifiable facts based on explicit AXIOMS.

For example, if the majority of people respond to "light blue (cyan)", then use that to your advantage.

You don't have to change your message in the slightest. Just change what color you use to get people's attention.

The best CON-ARTISTS don't even use lies at all.

They just sample bias their "truth" and use psychological tactics (colors, architecture, NLP, familial instinct) to trick people (initiates) into believing they're "thinking up their own ideas" (inception).

I try to steer clear of the most obvious tricks because I'm trying to find people who are repulsed by them (like myself).

Not always a 'Con'. I throw out fallacies intentionally sometimes, when speaking with someone I do not know anything about, to 'gauge' their perception/capacity/vigilance/etc. Basically, just to see if they even recognize my crime. If they do, it tells me that I am dealing with someone who can take a whole other level of communication. If they do not, then I know I will need to 'tone it down' with this one.

That's why we need to start with baby-steps.

RCV FTW!
