Politics always divides into us & them, and the most effective kind is the establishment making it ubiquitous. (Many white people believe that only others have a race. Karl Marx built an identity politics around the one sociological concept sloppier than Race, and it worked when the State imposed it but not otherwise.)<br /><br />If you don’t have that kind of control, you try to get the voters to accept that you are on their side in the relevant Us/Them distinctions. (Dolt45 got millions of working-class people to believe that he was on their side against the Big Bosses.) Here is an excellent approach to <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2017/02/the-simple-psychological-trick-to-political-persuasion/515181/">political persuasion</a> based on that. One example is the Anheuser-Busch commercial on the Super Bowl. Not only does Trump have Budweiser arrayed against him, but they’re using good tactics.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=supergee&ditemid=1865192" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-01:156313:1293333 2014-09-23T13:57:03Z 2014-09-23T13:57:03Z public 0 <a href="http://petapixel.com/2014/09/22/iconic-portrait-photos-throughout-history-recreated-john-malkovich-subject/">Famous photos recast</a><br /><br />Thanx to <span style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://theweaselking.livejournal.com/profile'><img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif' alt='[livejournal.com profile] ' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' width='17' height='17'/></a><a href='http://theweaselking.livejournal.com/'><b>theweaselking</b></a></span><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=supergee&ditemid=1293333" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
