It can work. Sort of.
Case one, a tighty righty wing-ding of the first water, way over the rainbow. Cannonades and barrages of fact and expert opinion are as nothing, his mind set is neutron-density and will not change, period, regardless, now and forever. Hopeless, gormless, a candidate for The Wall.
Case two, a more or less conservative person whos politics are a mixture of upbringing, immediate culture, comfort and laziness. Sees a Mike Moore movie and is totally pissed-off at that lying scum, Mike Moore. In fact, goes to read up on it to gather ammunition.
And finds out that even though Moore exaggerated the specifics, in general, the practice he invites us to abhor is real. Case two is now apprised of a fact he never would have gotten any other way. He has the creepy moment of doubt, hey, those leftys were actually right about something.
And, in Heaven, another angel gets his internet connection…
