So you're [[Final Battle|finally facing the villain]]. He's being all [[Smug Snake|smug]] and [[Break Them by Talking|trying to break you]] with his words, [[Deconstruction|deconstructing]] your motives for fighting him and reminding you of how ''[[Not So Different|similar]]'' you are to him, making you uncomfortable with his [[What Is Evil?|too-close-to-truths]], offering you the opportunity to [[We Can Rule Together|join him]], etcetera etcetera... and what should your response be? [[Kirk Summation|Tell him the error of his ways,]] and [[Last Second Chance|offer him a chance to join the good guys?]] A measured, reasonable response, indicating your disagreement? [[Villain Has a Point|Let the villainous argument throw you]] and make you wonder if you and him are [[Not So Different]]?
Line 30 ⟶ 31:
 
Inverse of [[Kirk Summation]], where the hero delivers a devastating ''rhetorical rebuttal'' to the villain's [[Motive Rant]].

== [[Anime]] &and [[Manga]] ==
* [[Naruto|Neji]] gets two of these after his rants about fate and destiny. One from Hinata, and another from Naruto.
** Also, after Kabuto gives Naruto a [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]] and tries to kill him Naruto's response is to tell him that he refuses to die until he becomes Hokage and drives a Rasengan into Kabuto's stomach.
Line 705 ⟶ 706:
* If you try to give [[Shawn Michaels]] a [[Break Them by Talking]], he'll just get fed up and kick you in the face.
* During their 2010 feud, [[CM Punk]] asks [[Rey Mysterio, Jr.]] why Rey is opposing him when Punk is on a mission against drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. Rey replies that it's simple: while Rey agrees that [[Drugs Are Bad]], Punk is an obnoxious jerk who keeps forcing his message down people's throats, assaulting people from behind, and subjecting them to 3-on-1 beatdowns.
 
== Real Life ==
 
* An interesting [[Real Life]] occurrance occurred on Indian reservations in [[The Thirties]]. The Nazis [[Exploited Trope|thought Indians had little loyalty to America]] and would help them. In addition, the Nazis saw Indians as [[Magical Native American|lost Aryans]]. Further, they saw [[Complete Monster|their plans for the Jews]] as little different than if Indians killed all the white people, which they figured Indians wanted to do. So a lot of Nazi propaganda was distributed on reservations by German anthropologists (also collecting intelligence in case [[Genre Savvy|Indian languages were used as codes]]; {{spoiler|[[It Was His Sled|they were]]}}). The result? Possibly the most epic Shut UP, Hannibal ever: Tribes declared (or renewed declarations of war from [[World War I|the last time]]) war on Germany even before the United States did. [[He Who Fights Monsters|Fascist and Nazi ideas were outlawed.]] And when the United States finally did declare war, Indians from their mid-teens all the way to their forties signed up, lying about their age when need be.
* "To the German Commander: NUTS!"
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmfkYu4m2jA During a speech] in his presidential campaign in San Diego, [[Ronald Reagan]] was being interrupted by a heckler insulting him. Reagan simply said "Oh, shut up!" and the crowd gave a standing ovation.
** Reagan was known for these. His first major moment in national politics was the debate between him and George Bush Sr. in New Hampshire during the primaries.
{{quote|'''Local newspaper editor''': Someone turn Reagan's microphone off!
'''Reagan''': I am ''paying'' for this microphone, Mr. Green.<ref>Due to accusations that the debate was actually an illegal campaign contribution because it did not include all seven primary candidates, Reagan settled the argument by covering the setup costs for the debate out of his own funds.</ref>}}
* [[wikipedia:¿Por qué no te callas?|¿Por qué no te callas?]] ("Why don't you shut up?") - King Juan Carlos of Spain to Hugo Chavez at the 2007 Ibero-American Summit
* During a [[Frank Zappa]] concert, a heckler shouted to a police officer "Take off that uniform before it's too late!", to which Zappa replies [[Not So Different|"Everyone in this room is wearing a uniform and don't kid yourself".]] When the heckler tries stirring things up again, Zappa simply tells him [[Deadpan Snarker|"You'll hurt your throat, stop that!"]] The conversation can be heard at the end of "The Little House I Used To Live In", off his ''Burnt Weenie Sandwich'' album.
