Brain Politika

I break down political propaganda, the psychology behind why it spreads, and why it works on the people who follow it.

[Lumir S Vinod @lumirsv]

I used psychology to help a friend understand why he’s been feeling stuck.

My classmate TM has low self-esteem but high self-efficacy.

He believes he can get things done. He just struggles with how he values himself.

I am interested in Social Influence.

"Social influence" is the process by which other people change our thoughts, feelings, attitudes, or behaviors, intentionally or unintentionally.

This is one of the dangerous ones I found:
1. Golem Effect

Reality check: The foreign-funding claim and the "Modi's genius plan" framing aren't, MEA has said it has no info on this, and financial probes found no evidence of a funding wave.

[Brain Politika @BrainPolitika]

Cabinet reshuffle buzz is going around, and along with it a claim: that Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation was Modi ji's brilliant play to shut down the problems CJP was causing, CJP allegedly funded by Pakistan, China, and America, so in the end BJP won, Modi ji won.

3. Confirmation bias: people who already believe CJP is foreign-funded don't verify this, they just connect it to propaganda they've already accepted, and the loop closes.

First victory!
Democracy won.

@abhijeet_dipke came from the USA and pulled off something in just a month that even the opposition couldn't do in the last decade. Hats off.

After CJP posted it on their official page, within just 10 minutes, people started debunking it, calling them frauds and saying, "Frauds support frauds."

Do you feel something is off?

[Brain Politika @BrainPolitika]

The post was shared by CJP about an hour ago, and people started debunking it around 50 minutes ago. Is that something suspicious?

An Uttarakhand Police constable came to Jantar Mantar and submitted his resignation letter to Abhijeet Dipke in support of students 🔥

[Brain Politika @BrainPolitika]

A police officer, who already has criminal allegations against him, came there and publicly submitted his resignation letter.

Tutorial for BJP andh bhakts who are still saying that Sonam Wangchuk said he would show the way to Chinese soldiers, etc.

@Cockroachisback @DelhiPolice rumours Right? Or is it AI generated?

[Brain Politika @BrainPolitika]

@Cockroachisback @DelhiPolice @DelhiPolice AI right?
Or maybe rumours.

@divya_gandotra Cockroaches making reels? Ha ha.

They were beaten with lathis, and he lost consciousness. They were trying to wake him because if he had died, the situation would have spiraled out of control.

And right on cue, the propaganda kings arrived to bend the story.

@Phunsukwangduji Meta is the parent company of WhatsApp. I emphasize: WhatsApp "University".

Without WhatsApp, some propaganda factories would struggle to graduate their next batch of "experts."

IYKYK.

[Brain Politika @BrainPolitika]

@TheReal_Jassi @DelhiPolice rumours Right? Say it's AI!!

[Brain Politika @BrainPolitika]

@DelhiPolice @Cockroachisback No casualties?
Rumours?

Joke of the century

[Brain Politika @BrainPolitika]

@dhruv_rathee If this is how the Leader of the Opposition is treated, then what will be the situation of an ordinary citizen?
