Unbalancing
In an emotional state, the victim will probably do something ill-considered, spontaneous, unprofitable for himself, which means that the manipulation has worked. The main thing is to avoid unwanted discussion and constructive discussion.
The manipulator can constantly deliberately distort the name or position of his opponent: the familiar "Ivanov" instead of the respectful, instead of "professor", "Ivan Petrovich ... oh ... that is Peter Ivanovich", "manager" instead of "general director" .
The manipulator can outplay the shortcomings of its victim: mimic bad diction, reservations, speech errors, stutter. Or insert phrases that provoke the conflict: "Oh, you just made me laugh now!", "Are you exactly an expert on this issue?", "Do you talk like that with your wife?", "Oh my God ... "And the like. Not only verbal components can be used. The aggressor can resort to disdainful gestures, irritating actions. For example, constantly click on the handle, not responding to the vis-a-vis remarks.
