I and the facts disagree. Plenty of calm voices are ignored every election and the liberal screeching wins the day. That’s a (recent) historical reality.
The hysterical blogs get the hits. The things they discuss are made mainstream. The MSNBC types policies are now lay while the more Fox positions are benched time and time again. And considering Fox has orders of magnitude more viewers, it shows whose influence and argument style holds actual on the ground sway. Facts no longer matter. Emotion is the new reality.
Not really. Conservatives win plenty of elections. Unless we really screw the pooch we’re in line for big gains in 2 months.
The hysterical blogs get the hits from the choir. Which again, doesn’t make change. The libs have control of the fed right now. But notice in the great scheme of things neither MSNBC nor Fox have any real rating, neither is influencing the country, at best they energize their base.
Emotion is fine, but not shrill. There’s a massive difference between emotion and a shout down. You can have lots of emotion and not call a woman a c$%^. I’m not saying not have have emotion, I’m saying emotion doesn’t excuse being abusive, and abusive doesn’t win arguments in a way that matters.
