Comment View from outside / Reverse Psychology ? (Score 1) 468
Sometimes from the outside we foreigners receive reports on the aggressive voter shaking, like getting phoned automatically.
Also the problem that some of those campaingers try to conceal or obfuscate their true origin to use a reverse psychological reaction to their advantage.
This "House Majority PAC" actually from my POV reeks as such a reverse thingy.
- page design & clumsy argumentation for example
If I would project myself into your place and would have been more likely to vote democratic than republican previous. This could make me angry and I would change to either "fuck off" from all voting or reverse my voting tendency.
It would been anoying to be bombarded with this load of crap, thank PASTA we don't have to.
But there is only one solution to this, because voting really is important, but when politicians and supporters don't know where politics turns out to be nothing more than a joke, and every vote turns into a dumb sheep shoven it's mostly the time to start an alternative that really is an alternative in being none.
All within the ruleset but ridiculing the current campaigners by beating them with their own ridiculous nonsense.
Example from germany:
In germany we have the party that's calling itself "the Party"/"Die Partei".
A satiristic nonsense party that ridicules other politicians and parties not by harrasing them, instead by just throwing some of their slogans back against them.
