Yeah, it's one of the semi-hidden features of the game. Like Arch-Conservative units persuading your units, you can persuade Conservatives with a guitar and the Music skill.
That's not all. Arch-Conservatives turned Elite Liberal (and natural Elite Liberals) will preform psych attacks while unarmed that are just as effective on the Conservatives.

To clarify, this is true for Elite Liberals in the sense of "Liberal Judge" and so on; the major Liberal counterports to the Arch-Conservative characters.

Having 1000 juice and getting the rank Elite Liberal is neither necessary nor sufficient to get these special attacks. It's based on profession.

Huh, could a Transient do a special attack like a Liberal Judge if he took classes to get a high enough law skill?

No.

Best as I can recall, the Liberal Judge is the only recruited liberal with such ability.  The game could probably use more Liberal Counterparts.

But remember, training music skill at the university and wielding a guitar allows a special attack.  You'll want someone with high Heart and Charisma.

Hippes do wonder for that guitar squad. Six of them, with max heart, can get you converting any conservative with the mere power of rock in no time!

I suspect you've never tried doing many illegal things yet in your game. The second the CCS knows you're "active", they'll come down on you like the hammer of God.

Bonus points if you do it in seiges, sending the police/army/CIA/firemen/CCS/mercenaries into chaotic infighting when they had originally showed up to kill you.
