Hydration! Or Hydrafication

Here’s one I just made up in like 5s. I’m a genius.
It means everything getting fraught and tense, like a 7 billion person Mexican standoff, where a few are Good, a few are Bad, but most are just Ugly.

This is obviously an atch. An atchoose me if you are the polite type who pivots the half-sneeze into an apology.

This one is tough but I’ll go with a “dropaliasing” as in “I dropaliased the quarter and couldn’t find it”
Based on aliasing effects

A combination of: necessity (social pressure) to have a take on the topic, topic being highly controversial, topic being very complex. A no-win scenario.

The process of changing the narrative of your identity.
For example from an ambitious professional to a free spirited musician. Or a Mormon to a progressive.
Reinventing personal brand exists, but it feels too corporate and externally focused.
Identity rewrite?

Hmm. I’m thinking magnesium sacrificial protection of iron etc.
Sacrificial crackpottery?

Tactic of founding a ludicrous conspiracy theory to inoculate against a related idea.
Eg:
-Space alien ufo narrative hides military R&D details
-Pizzagate protects Gaetz or Epstein network
-“5G causes COVID” softens insistence on retaining local copies of data

When someone is effusive about a relatively ineffective "band-aid" for a problem, which requires ~zero behavioral change . . . in lieu of a more comprehensive solution that would require at least some change but which would also be more effective, sustainable, cheaper, etc.

Holmeside, after Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. ... “I would not give a fig for the simplicity this side of complexity, but I would give my life for the simplicity on the other side of complexity.” The left side is the figside. The middle is communism. See planplusonline.com/simplicity-sid
