"There is no second best" is a narrative
Discussion
I'm sure many people came to this conclusion before Saylor made this phrase a meme. I know I did.
is it still a narrative for those people?
A narrative is any shared story or idea. So yes, it is still the narrative that you and I believe.
Every movement or cohesive group needs a narrative, some shared story, an ethos.
Everyone has but they do not need
Not individuals. But groups, movements, political parties, religions, hell, even Bitcoiners have a narrative. It is a need. The collective dissolves entirely without it.
Does it dissolve or does it transcend?
It dissolves. Disparate peoples need a common thread to bind them, or they will be at odds with eachother
Even marriages and families need this.
