many people stay in relationships the same way market bubble crashes work. when the price of a stock "crashes" its heroic story pops and it goes into free-fall until someone shouts "I SEE YOU & I LOVE YOU" and buys, thus catching the fall.https://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1371512789089480706 …

the "bubble" is the relationship that is subconsciously known to eventually fail. but the fear of failure is not knowing the price you'll fall to before someone steps up. everyone is "smart, funny, and kind" until price discovery reveals them as Basic. that's the real fear.

traditionally, value investors would refrain from bubbles and so have cash (and assets to sell for cash) so that they could swoop in like spiderman and save the princess, saving her from the fall

however, b/c so much of the american footure and the american dream is tied up in stocks(401ks), housing, etc... the government now has to play the role of spiderman rather than allowing the free market to generate vigilantes

the government, in an effort to be heroic, has politicians filling in the role of redpillers. surface-level charisma before the revelation of needy impotent sociopathy.

but this DOES work in the short-term. combined w/ bubble stickiness & everyone ends up in shitty relationships they r afraid to leave. everyone is just (resentfully) riding each other like donkeys waiting for a hero, hoping to find god in a fuck.https://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1353413371605864448?s=20 …
