Luke spread his hands. "Since a collective is mindless, why let other people lead them to deal with us?"
Victor was lost for words. A moment later, he asked, "How do I do that?"
His mind raced, but he couldn't immediately come up with a plan.
Luke chuckled. "It's very simple. You have to be the most outspoken and influential one, or at least, one of them."
Victor's face twitched. Wouldn't that be cursing himself?
Luke ignored his hesitation. "Also, you can keep it up until a more obvious 'wave' rises up…"
Victor couldn't help but add, "And fire back?"
Luke chuckled. "No, go a little more crazy."
Victor: "What?"
Luke said, "Use a clearer, simpler, and more provocative slogan; the collective will subconsciously follow it. At that time, whatever slightly more outrageous standpoint you take, those people will follow."
Of course, Victor got this – in theory. He had never tried it in practice.
