An account that overuses LMAO, ROTFL, meh, ha ha, loser, etc, etc, is trying to bypass your rational mind to get at your evolutionary programming to avoid expulsion from society. Learn to notice the strategy working, and laugh. 🙏 |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1304173006386733056 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=We don’t empower [[No-Living-Heroes Theory|living heroes]] with the ability to challenge institutions. We allow for individuals tied to institutions. We allow collective heroism (e.g. crews of astronauts are neither individual nor unaffiliated). But [[Charles Lindbergh|Lindbergh]] taught them the danger. And so we now destroy. |timestamp=9:40 PM · Sep 10, 2020 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1304173009494630400 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Most of my real heroes now appear before me as scoundrels. They are mired in smears, whisper campaigns, impoverished by boycotts, cancelled, beset by campaigns to discredit everything they do, say, or even observe. That isn’t an accident. It is reputation warfare known as [[Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)|F.U.D.]] |timestamp=9:40 PM · Sep 10, 2020 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1304173010539040771 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Moral: Institutions are doing you a favor by whittling down the set of possible heroes. Ask yourself: [[Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)|FEAR]]: who frightens me? [[Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)|UNCERTAINTY]]: who is unpredictable? [[Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)|DOUBT]]: who lives under a cloud of questions particularly with respect to motive. Then ask: is there a [[Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)|FUD]] campaign? |timestamp=9:40 PM · Sep 10, 2020 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1304173012036452352 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Even a *total* scoundrel may at times have something valuable to say. When someone tells you: “You should *never* listen to *anything* that person says! Don’t listen. Not a good look!” that is the dead giveaway. There is no soul on earth who that fits. Not a single one.

Thx! Easy: Fight the army of people who suspiciously want to embroil me in [[Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)|Fear-Uncertainty-and-Doubt FUD]] interpersonal drama. I can’t do it; not due to cowardice but due to the Streisand effect and the fact that I’m repeatedly throttled by tech companies.
