There is a
specific deception technique Weinstein uses in his smear campaign of his
accusers. If you look at his smears in the article below notice he compliments
them before or as he says they are lying. This creates the illusion that
Weinstein likes his accusers and is a nice guy therefore we should trust his
other comments about them. When we hear good comments mixed with bad the
cognitive dissonance created in the message, especially without nonverbal cues
to check for honesty, tends to make our brains believe the smear. Freaky, but
true. If we could hear and watch him, we might detect his smarminess. No,
we can read it too.
