I don't mind this repeat post of yours, Moral Compass. Not at all. Deserves to be repeated.

Because the weaponizing of the message has now included repeating things three times (three repetitions, repeating three times), we need to make a habit of doing that, too. WHENEVER we're in a place or situation when there is a chance to promote and defend OUR positions. Repetition.

Repetition, repetition, repetition.

Because they have weaponized the message. Weaponized it. They have thoroughly WEAPONIZED the message.

And if we don't turn that technique back on them, and use it as OUR weapon, we're sunk.
