From my substack article on this: “Social capital, the kind that sustains communities, movements, and even careers, depends on unpriced acts. Most people who succeed did not get there purely through paid transactions. I did not. We benefited from someone answering a question, making an introduction, or offering reassurance for FREE. The paradox in a transactional mindset is that it is self-defeating. Because even capitalism cannot be sustained without “free help”. It depends on residues of generosity it cannot itself produce.” I urge you to read it (it’s v short but explains what I’m trying to say much better than the video does) - link in the biooooo [capitalism, late stage capitalism, sociology, philosophy, society, social media, fyp, market, economics] #capitalism #influencers #fyp #sociology #money

I was so lucky to have seen this video shared by my friend @joyful_inspired_living. In this reel @annaakana shares a quote from Sociologist @itsjenniferwalter offering clear insight into what we see happening right now in the US and why these tactics are being used. The reel ends with clear guidance on ways to move through the chaos. Going to be watching this a few times. #politics #tactics #politicaltactics #uspolitics #overwhelm #shock #shockdoctrine #distraction #chaos #crisis #disorient #radicalchange #overload #reel #video #instareels #instatoday #instagrammer #wednesdaymood #wednesdaymotivation #wednesdayvibes #wednesdayinspiration #wednesdaythoughts #wednesdaywisdsom

6,715,214

Research in psychology demonstrates that bad behavior often happens gradually. This slippery slope makes it harder to identify whether something truly bad is happening. That leads many people to wait - and watch things get worse. Consider this your sign that bad things are happening now - and we all need to speak up. UPDATE: I turned off commenting because I’m not willing or able to have antisemitic (and Holocaust denial) comments on my page. But follow me if you’re interested in understanding how problematic behavior happens gradually - and what we can do about it. #holocaustremembranceday #internationalholocaustremembranceday #moralcourage #bystander #speakupspeakout
