Hey thank you everyone for the positive reception! The video is shaping up to be a real smash hit!

I'm gonna be taking a much needed and much deserved break for a bit. In the meantime I will humbly plug my patreon. I wouldn't be able to do projects like this without your support.

Here's to more in the future!

Today’s insect is a master of disguise. 🥸Meet the beautiful orchid mantis (Hymenopus coronatus). With back legs that change color and resemble petals, this insect blends in perfectly among flowers. But don’t be fooled by its pretty, pink appearance! This critter is a formidable predator. It uses its spiny front legs to grab prey, like spiders and insects, which often mistake the mantis for a flower. It can be spotted in parts of Asia including Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand.

Hog 201 for anyone interested in trying this:

Bodily autonomy (like abortion, anti draft, etc) -> “The government shouldn’t be able to force anything on my body I don’t want.”

Anti surveillance -> “I don’t trust big government/big tech (big brother if you’re feeling frisky) with the ability to spy on me and my family.”

Immigration -> “Next to all of us immigrated at some point, I don’t see why the elites get to decide who’s allowed to be where. What’s to stop them coming for me?”

Climate Change -> “Big oil shouldn’t get to determine whether or not I get to go places. I don’t want to be dependent on some big business to survive.”

State Violence -> “I don’t want the goddamn secret police breathing down my neck! I trust my community a whole hell of a lot more to help me than I do the state!”

The vast majority of conservatives think of themselves as underdogs being repressed by the government/the elite, and they value personal freedom (specifically their personal freedom, they don’t care about other people). The will almost always agree with leftist points if you can find a way to blame the problem on their vague enemies (useful, since rich people are the root of most problems), and tie it back to their ability to say fuck everyone else. NEVER appeal to science, theory, logic, or human goodness. Make it seem as if you are a paranoid lunatic who trusts no one. They love it.

#you need to tailor your arguments to people's existing values and priorities if you want to convince them #the flip side is that it's every bit as easy to tailor conservative arguments to convince a leftist audience #so don't get smug #you're not immune to this either <- prev extremely true
