Individuals can aspire to make you think a certain way by the story they tell. This story can only tell the facts that help them “prove their point” and carefully silence those who see it from a whole different angle. The story will become one of emotion that hopes to draw the audience in so deeply that they are clouded with the empathy of the storyteller even as the rain is hitting them on top of their head. This helps build up emotions in a way that G-D forbid causes one to act then think later. Watch out for “aspirational stories” from biblical days and on a network near you.
