12. I disagree
at this point I think we need to focus on the BIG PICTURE and LARGE CONCEPTS. They don't respond to specifics, especially the facts. We need to appeal to the well of emotion that is not attached to dull factchecking but to big, cultural issues.

It's up to them to come up with remedies for their constant REPEATING of GOVERNMENT LIES, and their inability to discover and report the truth.

I know it sounds simple minded, and of course we liberals would prefer to work with specific plans and so on, we love details. But the people we are fighting are not impressed by our correctness, nor are they open to discussion of specifics. We have to defeat them using their own unfair poilitical tools, or we will be flushed into the toilet of history.

Of course we should have all the missions you mentioned ready to throw at them whenever they demand our specifics. But we won't get that chance until we kick them in the shins forcefully and repeatedly.
