Well, the hypnosis is significant--it is indeed astonishing, but a very real thing. Mattias Desmet's new book "The Psychology of Totalitarianism" is soon available on both Kindle and by hard copy (in June). I offer a few (admittedly low key) approaches that have had moderate success for me. As I am talking, I might say (not necessarily in this order...maybe only say one, or a few, but letting the other person respond). (i) A lot of strong opinions on this topic! (then simply wait...) (ii). My family and I are very careful about what we put into our bodies--well, and thus what we might allow anyone to put into our bodies. (then simply wait....) (iii) Once I saw the suppression of information about inexpensive and highly effective early protocol treatments...I could smell the evil. (then simply wait....). (iv) Gosh...I wonder if every person at times in their lives is certain they are correct about something...but later find out it actually wasn't the case? I know that's been true for me. (then simply wait...) . Etc.
I just listened to talk with Desmet. He absolutely thinks that we all need to keep speaking out in a non-threatening way as it makes people uncomforable. It keeps the pressure on....
