First question I have to this dumbass is
1. What exactly have you done to try to stop them? Campaign for others? Do text or phone banking or Canvassing in nyc? 2. Do you even live in nyc? We know that is a no bc you’ve stated your location on here

In my negotiation books they tell us that the way to defeat institutional power is through 3 power levers: 1. Personal power (remaining confident and skilled, having status helps too and charisma) 2. Situational power (your past history with the interlocutor & of the context 1/

I often teach listening skills to people. One of my own mentors, a former chief hostage negotiator of Scotland taught me to think in terms of 7 layers: facts, emotions, beliefs, values, motivators, currency, worth 1/

I noticed yesterday was the harsh criticism against Gov whitmer! Do any of you realize she governs a state with the largest Muslim community &largest Arab community in the nation including Christian Arabs from Iraq, Syria, & Palestine? As well as a large Jewish populus 1/
