Main takeaways:
- Often, you cannot object to politicians’ values.
- The downsides of these values may irritate us.
- Activate the downsides of these values in your frame and make their consequences for policy concrete.
- Are you confronted by an opponent who frames you in this way? Reframe by highlighting the downsides of your opponent’s values and by making their consequences for policy concrete.
