but they asked what the solution is.

My idea would be that WE personally take them to task. WE start the echo chamber. That's what works for them.

I give my less political friends talking points all the time. The don't necessarilly take them terribly serious (thats cause we as a party value free-thinkers). But they know they've got ammo when the meet with a repuke at a party.

Do the research, refine 2-3 points on each pundits...and then just shove 'em down everybodies throat. That's what they do. And it seems to work for them.


On edit: They need to be the same 2-3 points for everybody. In other words, we all need to be on the same page. So the brainless hear the same thing around every corner.

For example: "Ann Coulter was formerly Arthur Whateverhisnamewas". It's already out there. I have no problem stooping to there level (not anymore I don't). We all need to be saying this as much as possible. And when presenting it someone, we need to LOOK like we believe what we're saying. Ever noticed how a repuke will tell you something that you know is just ridiculous. But you can see in their eyes that they actually believe it. That look...that look. That look is what affirms that the story is "valid" to other repukes. Whether it is or not.
