Never Play Defense

The Alt-Right Playbook: Never Play Defense - YouTube

Making accusations over asking questions

Dont correct = must be right

Not about conversations, its about putting people in a box


Never Play Defense:

  • Making accusations (other person on defense explaining)
    • Acting not reacting, dominate position
    • Leaves impression of being right
    • Technique mainly done in public and done for the watchers.

      “If you’re explaining you’re losing” -Ronald Reagan

  • Statements: Short and punchy
  • Counter
    • Keep your own story
    • Just explain the truth and not acknowledge other person’s accusation
