I Do Not Suggest That You Watch This Video

So, this is the problem.  There are many people on the right who are not stupid.  Who can speak in entire sentences and who can put together coherent thoughts and do impactful things.  But Laura Loomer is not one of those people.  At least not in this video.

I don’t know about Laura Loomer.  I have never watched a Laura Loomer video.  Some of you might know her far better than I and perhaps you would argue that she is far more cogent normally, but that she was agitated and got a bit out of control.  Fair enough.  That’s not my point.

My point is that the only way to convince other people that your way of thinking is better than their way of thinking is to talk to them.  If you can’t talk to them, quietly and intelligently, you can never even start to change their minds.  I know, you are all going to rant that nobody can change their minds.  That they are a lost cause or that they are stupid.  But that’s not the job.  The job is to educate them to the benefits of your way of thinking, and you can’t do that without talking to them.  And you certainly have to know that you can’t wander onto the facebook slums ranting like a lunatic over and over again the same tired tropes without having the cops called on you.  It is a failed strategy from the start.  Even as a simple publicity stunt, where she knew that she was going to be forcibly ejected, it is an epic fail.

How are you going to convince anyone on the left that your way of thinking is better than their way of thinking when you have people like this pulling stunts like this.  There is no “You go girl” here.  This is cringe worthy in the extreme.

If you want to change minds, you personally have to do better than this.
