BAGS & BUCKETS OF HORSE POO
He’s quite the salesman.
The woke-washing of product placement.
I’ve heard stories about vendors and people advertising products in social and support groups and forums using woke-washing to try to bully people into promoting products. If someone is telling people it’s “harming community” to choose not to promote some product, it might be woke-washing. It really doesn’t even matter if the products are sketchy or if they’re ordinary useful products. Support groups and advocacy organizations that are legitimate should not involve guilt-trips or high pressure sales tactics, especially not around selling products. I’ve also heard stories about group admins who oust anyone who complains about the practices of vendor marketing within the group. If this is happening in a “community” or group you’re in, you might actually be dealing with an MLM or something like that. At any rate, nobody should have to put up with groups that exist primarily to sell member eyeballs to vendors and marketers. It’s hard to avoid sketchy stuff on the internet, but we all deserve spaces where people don’t play fast and loose with people's information, and that are not constantly rocked by risky shift.
It’s okay to say no thanks to product cults.

Salesman’s Manipulation: “Would you object?”

This kind of phrasing is taught in business school and by sales gurus as a manipulation tactic (along with many, many other tactics I may post as I remember them). The rationale is that (supposedly) most people will automatically say “no” when someone untrusted asks something of them, and that saying “no” makes most people comfortable. So, by phrasing your request so that “no” is the affirmative answer (and, additionally, so that “yes” would mean expressing an extreme opinion) you will gain more agreement and thus more positive outcomes for yourself.
Yes, your intuition is correct, this is a strategy for tricking you into consent. That’s a salesman’s entire job.
Sales Tactics That Work
Sales tactics which are easier to implement can be overlooked in the process of developing a more complex sales strategy or sales process that is more flair than factual. As every salesperson or business owner knows, the goal of selling is to acquire and develop more customers at a profit. Every sales tactic needs to be planned in order to be effective, as the right tactics are key to making your…
