      All are welcome. Come all and "persuade" me that the nihilism of Persuasion is a rational, complete point of view.

      Right on the money to describe influence & persuasion as nihilistic; nihilistic in the same way that tools or strategic arts are nihilistic.

      Strategic arts & tools have utility entirely apart from ethics. This feels nihilistic and often is when means and/or ends are odious.

      100% agreement so far. If you’re building a case, you can consider these points conceded.

      I might be missing some of your earlier exchanges; just noticed the convo got hung up on nihilism, and I have strong feelings on that point.

      Perhaps it will help for me to (re)articulate that I don't object to the content alone, & think it's very useful to use Persuasion lens /1

      to deconstruct something like the Harris/Adams exchange. My issue is w/ the nihilism displayed in lack of acknowledging Trump's malevolence.

          nothing against idea people love to brush off facts - we DO - but reality has a long-term inertia to it. +1

          Q is if persuasion skill *as such* weighs heavier as time frame is shortr. Best is to combine w being right!

          e.g. Sam Harris had a tough time w Mr Adams' visuals but *could not cope* w the strength of his positions.

          e.g. again Mr Adams WILL win the debate over Trump because Trump IS IN FACT very skilled and persuasive.

          short-term debate poll is one thing for Hillary & Trump fans. See where Harris-Adams debate is in 2 years. Cf. eg Suffrage.

          95% of audience in that situation fervently roots one side & justifies it. That's when you need to watch longer time frame.

          After Trump Alone vs NFL, Steph, LeBron, etc --if you are not taking Trump's persuasion seriously you are unable to analyze.
