      In mimetic theory, scapegoating is a conflict resolution mechanism by which rival factions find someone to blame and unite against. We saw a lot of that recently in cryptoland, with XRP and Faketoshi as scapegoats. Almost all non-XRP, non-CSW united against them, respectively.

      The key thing with the scapegoating mechanism is that 1) Rival factions aren’t conscious that scapegoats are actually being used as scapegoats. 2) It does not matter if scapegoats are objectively guilty.

      Side note: René Girard’s mimetic theory seems to be the philosophical foundation for Peter Thiel’s 0 to 1. Mimesis means imitation. Much of Thiel’s philosophy is about not imitating competitors.
