      I don’t think Scott was comparing the three. They are just three examples that fit the equation. Since Scott has personal knowledge of one of them it was perfectly natural to include it. To think was comparing the three together is ridiculous.

      correct, scott was not comparing them - the readers who fall for the persuasion does, almost unconsciously. Scott just "linked them" and he lets delusion do the rest, by linking them he reinforces the credibility of what scott tweets about. that is how persuasion works

      It’s manipulative and I believe he is creating a credibility around dishonest communication that does not exist.

      Let's cut through it quickly. What is Scott's intention? That is what I am focusing on. Impressing people that divisive, dishonest communication is admirable is fraught with confusion (and feeds on confusion).

      This kind of persuasion is in everything from politics to advertising.

      as well as tweets from average everyday peeps. "persuasion" as scott uses it is just the practice of deception without lying directly at face value.

      Is wearing lipstick a form of deceptive persuasion? Everyone knows why a woman wears lipstick, yet it persuades. Putting myself in the Jobs/Musk/Adams list was intended to be cheekily transparent while also effective. Deceptive?

      wearing lipstick is a form of seduction, and is theater. there is a time and place for all of it. however in the courtroom, or in a critical discussion - there is no place for theater when there is the call for building a trusted, reliable consensus with integrity.

      The courtroom is more theater than the theater. One side is persuading against the truth every time. Otherwise there would be no trial. And as lawyers will tell you, juries and sometimes judges are moved by emotion not fact.

          that theater makes its way into the courtroom does not mean that the courtroom is the place for theater! modern courtrooms have no tools for consensus building so persuasion takes over.

          again, that theater makes its way into the courtroom does not mean the courtroom is the place for theater. I used "courtroom" as an example of an environment dedicated to a critical discussion or outcome.
