    Is this brainwashing? (HWNDU protest)

    http://hewillnotdivide.us/

    Commencing at 9am on January 20, 2017, the day of the inauguration of the 45th President of the United States, the public is invited to deliver the words "HE WILL NOT DIVIDE US" into a camera mounted on a wall outside the Museum of the Moving Image, New York, repeating the phrase as many times, and for as long as they wish.

    Open to all, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the participatory performance will be live-streamed continuously for four years, or the duration of the presidency. In this way, the mantra "HE WILL NOT DIVIDE US" acts as a show of resistance or insistence, opposition or optimism, guided by the spirit of each individual participant and the community.
    So a bunch of people chanting 'He will not divide us' into a camera, and they plan to keep this up for 4 years. Are large numbers of young people being brainwashed into some sort of cult by this ideology?
    Most people would rather die than think, and most people do. -Bertrand Russell
    Before the camps, I regarded the existence of nationality as something that shouldn’t be noticed - nationality did not really exist, only humanity. But in the camps one learns: if you belong to a successful nation you are protected and you survive. If you are part of universal humanity - too bad for you -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

    They were brainwashed a long time ago. Hence why the liberal agenda even exists.

    "Resistance and opposition". "NOT DIVIDE". Although I suppose their slogan doesn't mention anything about them doing the dividing.

    No, this is not brainwashing, this is a stunt that won't last a week.

    Don't you have better stuff to do than trying to stir the pot?

    So people chanting a slogan makes them brainwashed? Or are you just giving them too much credit in thinking this will be anything besides an obscure footnote of 2017 that no one will care about in a few days or weeks?

    Now, to be fair, it's not like these folks have anything better to do, so I could see it lasting much longer!

    It isn't brainwashing. However the kinds of people at these protests are invariably brainwashed. Most cannot grasp basic economic or philosophical concepts, they are only good for repeating slogans they get from social media.

    There are some very good videos on youtube of Peter Schiff going to talk to these unwashed socialist cretins at a "1%" rally and try to start a discussion but they seem so poorly informed and confused that what he says goes over their heads. That's generally how it feels to discuss politics with millennials.

    theres nothing "artistic" about the vast majority of contemporary art, imo. And yet it still shows up, so there it is.

    It's just people yelling.

    If they actually do it, it is a bit. Probably more reinforcing existing brainwashing than implementing anything new.
    If you are particularly bold, you could use a Shiny Ditto. Do keep in mind though, this will infuriate your opponents due to Ditto's beauty. Please do not use Shiny Ditto. You have been warned.

    They are right though.

    He won't divide the US or whatever they mean.

    They will divide themselves, instead of debating viewpoints, they rather separate themselves from it. Its easier to talk and say these things, then working to fix them.

    It is only brainwashing if the slogan isn't something I agree with!
