The Big Truths

An effective Opposition in today’s media-saturated, media-inflected world, must learn to execute rhetoric the way that the established entrenched Regime does: to rehearse it and to have fun(!) with it. We should do the homework, anticipate arguments and tactics... and be ready with counter-responses.

Let's establish a few Big Truths to counter their Big Lies.:

"9/11 did not change everything; it only changed some things."

"It's not a war; it's an occupation."

"They are not 'terrorists'; they are insurgents."

Etc.
