The second and third times if it's the exact same words.
We know this is more or less a brain washing technique- as well as a way to hog all the time saying 2/3 less.
Going forward they should chop the shit out of R Kelly Anne's interviews yet asure us we've only edited out the repeatative phrases. After watching her talk for a torturous 20+ minutes with Anderson Cooper I think it's literally the only way. They slammed them for edits- but if they can say "all their words were presented, just the repeats chopped" it brings up the point.
or present as FF on video of POTUS. Because basically they've been given the biggest platform on earth and are using NLP to brainwash the masses. To confuse exhaust and disgust the well meaning among us.
Those concerns should be acknowledged and explored and I don't know how else to stop it! Anyone else have ideas?
Anyone else going to march in NYC 1/21?

(9,760 posts)Something like, "You have just repeated the same exact thing you said before." Second time, "This is the second time you have repeated exactly that same statement."
Better wording, I'm sure can be written, something simple and direct, but I think it's better to expose their foibles than erase/hide them.

(42,641 posts)Some people just have to do things several times before they make up their mind. Think about the last time you bought a pair of shoes. Did you pick them then put them down several times before trying them on. Did you come back to try them again? If so, you are in good company. Many people have to repeat things several times before they get convinced. Three times is a common number

Kellyanne Conway is simply selling a product. She may have no ethical foundation, but she knows how to sell.

They actually have a very rare opportunity to do something important. I think some will try very hard to do that.
