Desensitizing - Goal of normalizing representation
Jamming - Goal of reducing psychic reward for opposition
Conversion - Goal of creating an ally for the movement

Difficult - (GK) thlibo - Describes a wine press crushing grapes. Conveys stress of the journey
Contend Earnestly - (GK) epagonizomai - To stand against + To agonize. Conveys that choosing the narrow gate is not always easy; often requires us to stand and fight for truth.
