Considering how fast viruses mutate , this is almost as scary a thought to me . <| sep |> For purposes of discussion , Bannon ' s personal beliefs about Jews are irrelevant . However , I ' m mystified why you say Bannon isn ' t using any tactics . He ' s a Trump ' s chief strategist and b not operating a straightnews outlet in Breitbart . Let ' s be generous and call it a tabloid . In both capacities , it ' s literally Bannon ' s job to figure out how to use outrageous statements either from Trump ' s mouth or in a Breitbart headline to reach and ultimately begin to persuade a large audience . He already knows that the MSM and many people have a preexisting notion of what r a cismantisemitismsexismetc . looks or smells like . He also knows that touching these nerves gets tons tons of MSM coverage . The trick is to craft statements and write headlines that will provoke a response , but leave just enough room for someone to be able to say it ' s not what it looks like . Then because the defense is shocking , the MSM continues to fixate on the statement . Eventually , viewers get habituated and expect there will always be a defense for every comment , even if they don ' t buy them . Imperceptibly , the preexisting notions or the categories themselves start to look suspicious . X is bad thing to say , but you can ' t prove it ' s racism Think about it Trump never would have gotten the attention he did if he didn ' t make crazy comments . Likewise , outside of us Internet geeks , the rest of the world would never have learned about Breitbart . But now it ' s probably increased its ad revenue like a million fold . Oh and Trump is PresidentElect . He ' s not getting his message out in spite of the MSM . He ' s getting it out BECAUSE of it .
