I'm extremely impressed by the simping mindset. The last years have shown that powerful men can do and say whatever they want. As long as their simps feel aligned on a more abstract level, it literally doesn't matter how blatantly stupid or immoral they are.

True for politicians, CEOs, and bitcoiners. There will always be an endless supply of NPC apologists. The rationalizing mind is as flexible as a yoga guru.

Grateful to have witnessed it because the extent to which this is true would be hard to have believed just by reading books. Full simp abundance

You are just too polite

Unfortunately, in a chaotic time period where technology is ravaging shared belief systems (religion, gov, money, etc) many people abandon these ideals and look for perceived strength & intellect to soothe their need for order.

We strive to be stay limber 🧘

💯 and Bitcoiners are not immune from simping for politicians.

Yeah think we can check that box

>The last few years...

That's actually all of human history.

The internet makes it so much more obvious

And it can be easily supplemented by AI NPCs.

It all leads back to the inability to admit a mistake.

Rather bend over backwards to justify that it was actually not a mistake, but that YOU "don't get it"

Self preservation has a strong presence in humans. Most go along with the crowd because they believe that to be safest bet.

10 years?

human nature is more immutable than btc

for all human history

Blind faith in the new religion is the toxic outcome we have now.

lol

All the Trump supporters I know are in a WTF moment state right now. No simping going on.

They're starting to realize voting harder doesn't solve anything. Protests don't work, etc.

I think their next step may very well be non-compliance.

Not what I’m seeing

We must know a completely different set of trump supporters.

Rules for thee and not for me.

We are tribal, a 100% homogeneous and aligned community will be split perfectly 50/50 over any trivial issue and each side will dig in for their side. The rationalising comes later just to justify their stance. Kinda sad. And I'm probably guilty of it.

Almost all of history. What the internet also made obvious is simping for women, blows my mind.

Charismatic Sociopathic Manipulative leadership is old as the world. You would have to experience it first hand personally in your own life to begin recognizing the patterns and see through. Humanity has a ways to go to developing the discerment muscle which is only going to be exponentially more needed in coming times. Rationalizing mind is also great at masking scarcity and poverty consciousness, greed and hunger for power.
