      ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Rolf Degen

      h/t @robinhanson I've got a half formed theory that authenticity is about cultural flow state. Ppl see others & identify them as "authentic", strive to match them as being embedded in societal signifiers ...but the act of trying to clone authenticity is actually the antithesishttps://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1473234506513539072 …

      2/ as an example, every pickup truck commercial ever has rugged Great Plans state guys loading hay into trucks, or Texas welders pulling up to a job site ...and the viewership perceives these [ paid actors ] as representing authenticity. ...and by that, I think, what they're >

      3/ really perceiving and envying is someone who does not have a neurotic inner life where they WORRY about how they're perceived. The rugged guy loading his pickup truck with hay bales LOOKS like he's just focused on the task at hand, and knows who he is...something the viewer

      4/ ...does not. So the viewer sees what's associated with this [ presumed ] inner serenity and sees work gloves, a cowboy hat, jeans, a Carhartt work jacket, and a Ford F-250 ... and thinks "aha! those are the tools I need to silence the inner voice." This is good marketing.

      ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted David Hogg  🌻

      5/ ...but it is a very bad approach for the viewer, because the mere act of buying the truck and putting on the hat and Carhartts does nothing to make the external assumed persona real or silence the inner neurotic screaminghttps://twitter.com/davidhogg111/status/1479206420931174400 …

      7/ authenticity / cultural flow state can not be emulated or consciously chased ; it is only accidentally achieved (...and not always for the best). this guy is authentic -->pic.twitter.com/QfUvLg33XF

      8/ There's a default unexamined background axiom, at least in red tribe, that people were inherently more authentic in the past. Lots of "content peasant" memes, etc. Were people before the Current Year more authentic (i.e. in a cultural flow state, secure in who they were) ?

      9/ We have no data at all. Just as the "1950s retvrn" LARPers based all of their knowledge of the 1950s off of TV sitcoms and Coke ads (all of which are constructed and fake), the "peasants were authentic" meme comes from media & assumptions.
