I’m sure you’re all big fans here. Still some helpful things to learn.

Let's see you if you miss the points with this one
I see the point now. I need to pay $600 for his online course so I can be just as charismatic as the guy making the videos. It’s called “Charisma University” - not to be confused with the actual university of the same name in Turks and Caico.
Charisma University (total access)
Charlie: “Wow, that was incredible! Where did you train?” Confused by the question, I cock my head a bit to the side and ask, “What do you mean?” “That speech! I’m a professional speaking coach. I train speakers from all over the country. That waswww.charismaoncommand.com
I can be awesome now! My boss will give me a huge raise, famous TV stars will go on dates with me, and I will probably become a billionaire!

Please tell me you've posted this ironically...
You understand that Ben Shapiro is an ass of the highest order? Yes or No?Nope. The channel has lots of examples of how people interact, persuade people, or how they turn them off. Sorry it includes people some don’t like. The irony in this thread is people just jumping to conclusions based on the video I posted.
Thought some people might find it interesting in a know your enemy type way or, even better, know how to better communicate with people you don’t agree with. I see lots of examples on the internet of people not doing what works that just results in endless circular arguments.
My main issue is with the guy actually making the videos. He talks really fast and seems like a snake-oil salesman. Using Shapiro as an example of what to do or not do in a debate could be interesting. However, I don’t really agree with the takeaways of this self-proclaimed “charisma expert.”Nope.

Come join us at the original Biosphere. You might learn something. As a biospherian. With no training. Or Scientific background. We might smoke weed, though. In the Biodome.Nope.

I do appreciate you sharing, and I’m not ragging on you. I just don’t like or agree with the guy making the videos.
Dude? Just...Dude?I didn’t just happen across the channel down a YouTube rabbit hole. I heard them on a progressive podcast I frequently listen to and very little of it had to do with their paid service. Like me, you might have appreciated it more in that context than finding YouTube videos that also promote thier paid courses, which admittedly would have put me on the skeptical side too.
They also show people we would agree with but I think that’s less interesting here or at least not really open for a discussion.yes, Obama was a great speaker. /thread. There is a science to how people like Shapiro and Trump gain followers and it’s not just all those people are hate filled morons. Some are, sure, but not all. There’s plenty of people who share their views but have zero followers.
I think the second video is actually helpful. I don’t think it’s possible to shame people out of existence but that seems to be the preferred view by many. I think that’s just going to lead to more violence.
FTFY. What annoys me here is that Ben Shapiro doesn't sound smart, and the main system these orators/debaters have is never ever playing defense. That's it. Full stop. Throw a whatabout, try to use an intentionally misinterpreted quote from the proponent of the opposing opinion and talk talk talk talk as fast as you can.But the fact is, he makes himself sound persuasive [to some] using verbal manipulation.
People with college educations might be less likely to fall for the tricks of Shapiro and his ilk. I don’t have proof of that, but education level is a pretty good predictor of voting behavior.I’ll take a position halfway between sides here.
Look, I said Shapiro an idiot and I meant it. Even gave a good example.
But the fact is, he makes himself sound persuasive using verbal manipulation. So does much of the rest of the GOP, it’s just that Shapiro is one of their better practitioners.
Those of us on the left don’t seem to be nearly as skilled in using this kind of manipulation to win arguments. When was the last time you heard someone tell a conspiracy theorist that his conspiracy is just what they (meaning Republicans) want you to believe? Probably never.
Yeah, it’s all mind games, but the Republicans are so good at it and the Democrats…not so much.
