But the one they’re doing is serving the same purpose as “accusation in a mirror” but by a slightly different method. Just make sure you’re talking about the other side in as dramatic and extreme terms as they’re talking about you; it doesn’t need to make sense.

Most Republicans figured out how to do a version of this when they were in kindergarten. Kick the other kid when the teacher’s not looking, then fall on the floor fake crying. Worst case, you get a “both of you, stop it!” If you’re lucky, you might even convince the teacher the other kid started it.

You are a true believer. Blessings of the state, blessings of the masses.

Thou art a subject of the divine. Created in the image of man, by the masses, for the masses.

Let us be thankful we have an occupation to fill. Work hard; increase production, prevent accidents, and be happy.

Let us be thankful we have commerce. Buy more. Buy more now. Buy more and be happy.

Ooh I know: it means “smart enough to make Eliezer Yudkowsky think it’s smarter than he is.”

Well, you could just go back to sending stuff by fax machine forever, but then instead of even using the fax machine to sync patient data just make the patients fill out their own entire medical history from scratch every time they go to a different doctor and take their word for it.
