The general topic of "messaging" leaps out from this forum thread, as an obvious (although not explicit) subtext.
I just found this, and I think it's a standout essay, suitable for archiving in the "How to Message" file folder on anyone's hard drive. (Of course, like you, I'd probably prefer to archive it on my own hard drive, not just anyone's hard drive.)
Here's a small sample:
| quote | | When Barack Obama first ran for president 12 years ago, several organizations that had been working on the issue hired me to develop pro-reform messages and test them against potential attacks. Public support for expanding healthcare coverage proved so widespread that the issue was bulletproof—but only with effective messaging. If any of the messages began with "I believe in universal healthcare," the percentage who supported reform roughly equaled the percentage opposing it, given a tough narrative from the right about “socialized medicine” or “a government bureaucrat between you and your doctor.” But if the same message began with "I believe in a doctor for every family," support exceeded opposition 70 percent to 30 percent. |

NO.
That is properly called "How to PROPAGANDA"
You are fascinated by, and applauding, a screed on how to create propaganda, authored by one of your Leftist comrades.
It is exactly this kind of stuff that led another member of this forum to call you a "Purveyor of Perjury".
If you simply concerned yourself with telling the objective TRUTH you wouldn't have to worry about so-called "messaging",....
.... but Leftists gotta Leftist...[This message has been edited by randye (edited 05-23-2021).]

Emory was one of the first reported schools to demand "safe spaces" for students who couldn't cope with Trump speaking somewhat honestly.
Messaging.
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.
Barack Obama
How come the left allows antifa and BLM to get away with their crimes? Because they're what Obama's speech writer was talking about, maybe?[This message has been edited by sourmash (edited 05-23-2021).]

As much as repeated things pounded into heads indoctrinate sheep. Truth they don't want to believe doesn't seem to work as well.

As much as I could say the same about constantly posting Jordan Peterson videos......I don't. 
"The truth bears repeating" is an old saying for a good reason.
