What's funny and ironic is that you posted that list in reply to someone that used one of the very techniques on that list: A hit and Run.

Off topic a bit ... but ... did I read that right?
Watching "Law and Order" is now a liberal trait?

Well, I don't want to be accused of personal attacks

Apparently it is. I don't own a TV, so I'm looking on Amazon now for one, and all previous seasons of the show, so my comrades will accept me in to the liberal fold.

I wont accuse you of personal attacks, unless you personally attack me, but I will accuse you of posting lists about things you may not know very much about, considering the post you were slickly trying to reinforce used tactics on the very list you posted.
Technique #2 - 'CONSENSUS CRACKING'
A second highly effective technique (which you can see in operation all the time at www.abovetopsecret.com) is 'consensus cracking.' To develop a consensus crack, the following technique is used. Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting.
Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth.
As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.' Thus the uninformed reader will most like develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'
Technique #1 - 'FORUM SLIDING'
If a very sensitive posting of a critical nature has been posted on a forum - it can be quickly removed from public view by 'forum sliding.' In this technique a number of unrelated posts are quietly prepositioned on the forum and allowed to 'age.' Each of these misdirectional forum postings can then be called upon at will to trigger a 'forum slide.' The second requirement is that several fake accounts exist, which can be called upon, to ensure that this technique is not exposed to the public.
To trigger a 'forum slide' and 'flush' the critical post out of public view it is simply a matter of logging into each account both real and fake and then 'replying' to prepositined postings with a simple 1 or 2 line comment.
This brings the unrelated postings to the top of the forum list, and the critical posting 'slides' down the front page, and quickly out of public view. Although it is difficult or impossible to censor the posting it is now lost in a sea of unrelated and unuseful postings. By this means it becomes effective to keep the readers of the forum reading unrelated and non-issue items.

Law & Order goes way back to something like 1990.
It's an original NBC air (NBC not right wing).
Massive authoritarian/totalitarian themes based on current events and current hot political issues year by year in all the variations of the shows set in New York City.
All the way up from the police tactics and coroners and prosecutors.
Even some abortion episodes too.
