The meta problem of politics

Robbie Carlton avatar

psychology · 6.6

Things are very complicated. But saying "Things are very complicated" doesn't sell half so well as saying "Things are quite simple actually."

It's the same in sales and marketing. There's a principle in sales: "The confused mind says no."

This is the source of a lot of problems. Maybe the main source of our political problems.

Anyone have ideas about how to soften the negative impact of this?
