A quotation from Horace

For ridicule shall frequently prevail,
And cut the knot, when graver reasons fail.
 
                              [Ridiculum acri
Fortius et melius magnas plerumque secat res.]

Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Satires [Saturae, Sermones], Book 1, # 10 “Nempe incomposito,” l. 14ff (1.10.14-15) (35 BC) [tr. Francis (1747)]

“A well-known principle of human behavior says that when we ask someone to do us a favor we will be more successful if we provide a reason. People simply like to have reasons for what they do.”
― Robert B. Cialdini, Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion, 1984

"Subjective validation, sometimes called personal validation effect, is a cognitive bias by which people will consider a statement or another piece of information to be correct if it has any personal meaning or significance to them. People whose opinion is affected by subjective validation will perceive two unrelated events (i.e., a coincidence) to be related because their personal beliefs demand that they be related."

“There is a natural human tendency to dislike a person who brings us unpleasant information, even when that person did not cause the bad news. The simple association with it is enough to stimulate our dislike.”
― Robert B. Cialdini, in his book "Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion", 1984

@tg9541 I haven't checked the contents of the new IL-issue yet. Not sure when I can. One article, however, the one about argumentation and change of minds, brought to my mind a short comment I made to Catarina Dutilh Novaes's 2023 article with an almost identical title: https://mastodontti.fi/@lupposofi/110628576055189639

"Political #socialMedia ads labeled as from in-party sources and apparently non-partisan sources were trusted more than out-party sources.

So if you want to be sneaky just advertise under a name without any party connections"

That's a description from @mjbsp.bsky.social‬ about an #openAccess paper in #PoliticalPsychology by @tomstafford et al.: https://doi.org/10.1111/pops.13034

#Erfolgreich #etablierte #Protestbewegungen #verschwinden nicht, weil sie zu #radikal sind, sondern weil sie im #Entwurf einer #globalen #Vision nicht #radikal genug sind, um eine #inklusive #Strategie zu #skizzieren, an der die #Protestbewegung nicht #zerbricht.
