A secret technique to frame people.
A manipulation thread.
"You have no choice, it's signed".
Have you heard this before?
People who are good at manipulation use this extensively.
The aim is to get the victim to go down a path with no way back.
In politics, one way to trick a newcomer is to get them to make a public statement, take a stand on a controversial issue, or denounce a fact in order to remain consistent with their moral principles.
