There are two ways to encourage people. 1) Given them positive feedback. Encourage them. Be a great example and share the burden. 2) Tell people they're stupid in the hope that they'll say "Well I don't want him to think I'm stupid so I'll try harder!" The Chareidi parties seem to be pushing (2) and not realizing it'll just keep them out of the government and push their opponents into punishing them that much more.
