All the climate change nonsense aside, the advice on propaganda given by Mr. Mooney is completely wrong. If they want to be successful propagandists, they need to follow Hitler's example and just lie. If you don't have truth on your side, a lie works just as well if you use it properly. Lie big and keep repeating it. The more outrageous the lie the better. Hitler explained the effect very well. The majority of people who hear you will fall into three types, the weak, the unsure and the skeptics. The weak will believe because you are strong, the skeptics will know you are lying but fear you and be afraid to challenge your lie, the unsure will wonder, "how could he say such an outrageous thing if it wasn't true?", and give you the benefit of the doubt. The only people who will oppose you are the strong, and you beat them down with personal attacks.
The global warming scam is failing for this reason. The real scientists don't want to lie, and the liars leading the charge aren't real scientists and can be countered by real evidence. I recommended shorting global warming futures.
