GM☀️Degens™️ | “Bandwagons, ‘Sacrifices,’ and Thinking for Yourself in a Scripted Timeline” |
Why this person, this moment, this narrative? We unpack selective outrage, how tribes crown “acceptable sacrifices,” and the whiplash of cheering leaders one week and ignoring their policies the next. From performative politics to crypto custody rules and “your keys, your coins” reality checks, this one’s about owning your mind in an age of borrowed opinions.
In this episode
🧠 Bandwagon psychology: when discourse swaps facts for fandom.
🎯 “Why him?” — the logic (and illogic) of public targets, and what that says about power.
🗳️ Leaders vs. policies: applauding clapbacks while overlooking fine print that hits your wallet.
🪙 Crypto custody sanity check: platform risk, inactivity rules, and why self-custody literacy matters.
📺 Media diets & sixth-grade civics: arguing stats vs. arguing vibes.
🧭 Personal agency: fact-checking, forming your own view, and remembering silence is a decision too.
