Like, who would even fall for this stuff? It is so blatantly obvious.

Are there really people who would believe anything just because it has a picture of a pretty lady?

How often have you just read a headline? It's not about creating cases that stand up to scrutiny, it's about creating the impression of a movement.

Nudging people by making things appear more reasonable than they otherwise would be.
