Is this a satire? I can't tell, these days.

I'm happily married, there's nothing special about my life, and I find no difficulty  communicating with or understanding my wife. I kind of assumed that's the norm.

Nope, just someone having a mental breakdown on TikTok.

I don't understand these women who go around pretending
As if they really fuck with me, so I love 'em all from a distance
'Cause the same bitch say she down to ride be the main one who tricking
Got Molly mixed with promethazine 'cause every time

[Chorus]
I wake up in the morning, I got murder on my mind
AK-47's, MAC-11, Glocks, and nines
And all these pussy niggas hating, tryna knock me off my grind
But I can't let 'em do it, I got murder on my mind

Lol.

I find these type of breakdowns and narratives so strange. It's like the all-men-are-pigs narrative, but just reversed.

Somehow, people eat all of these narratives up without an ounce of critical thinking, and every rejection seems to reinforce them.

It's almost as if it's easier to believe problems come from others rather than one's self.

I'm sure that's a part of it. Another problem is that people are pattern recognition machines. If people started off with five hypotheses and looked for evidence for all competing five of them, they'd probably end up with a very different outcome than if they started off with one and called it a day.

The easiest way to fool people is to present a hypothesis and then the evidence. The best way to educate people is to start with the evidence and then collect all plausible hypotheses.

When people are stuck with this idea that all women are <insert a claim here> and they're constantly reminded of it, they'll look for evidence to confirm that claim. That's almost the definition of confirmation bias.

The media and unscrupulous self-help gurus constantly take advantage of such quick mental heuristics to make money and form narratives.

As a side note, I've used the same trick in almost all my published papers, save for my most recent few.
