The practice of forcing another party to behave in an involuntary manner (whether through action or inaction) by use of threats, intimidation or some other form of pressure or force. Such actions are used as leverage, to force the victim to act in the desired way.

The process of reading a definition on Urban Dictionary and finding it clever until you check the thumb ratings and see it is generally not liked. In the following moments you tell yourself it wasn't ever that funny in deep shame.
Works in the opposite sense also.
See peer pressure.

"Beat Feet ha! That's clever!
4719 negative votes? I guess it is pretty lame - and my decision to reconsider has nothing to do with thumb count coercion. It was never good. Actually, god damned awful."
"Douchebaguette is not even creative.
*Sees thumb count* Well, they did make it feminine by adding the 'ette', and simultaneously constructed a type of bread. LOL! *adds +1 to rating*"

A.k.a. "point-of-sale pressure". Similar to second-generation enabling, this term refers to a comparably-shameless mooching-strategy that's used on someone when you're both out shopping; it involves knowingly carrying a cancelled/expired credit card or a debit/cash/gift card that has no/insufficient funds on it, and then attempting to use said worthless plastic to pay at the checkout. Well, naturally, when the clerk swipes your card and then regretfully announces that the card was rejected, this awkward and "unexpected" delay creates an acutely-humiliating situation, especially if other shoppers are present. So you first make a great show of looking shocked/flustered/embarrassed, then hastily turn to your shopping-buddy and ask meekly but urgently, "Oh, I'm so sorry --- I forgot/didn't realize that my card wasn't gonna work this time! Do you think you could pay for my purchases just this once, and I'll pay you back as soon as I can?" And then of course, your hapless companion finds himself in a "hanged if you do and hanged if you don't" dilemma --- he can either get stuck with paying off a huge store-bill, or look like an unfeeling jerk in front of all those other customers if he indignantly refuses, especially since it would mean that you would then have to crimson-facedly tiptoe all around the store again to put all of your purchases back on the shelves, plus it would also mean that any money that your friend used for gas to take you shopping will have been wasted, also.
I prudently side-step any incidents of checkout-counter coercion by always making sure to gently-but-firmly tell my shopping-companions beforehand that (1) they will be totally "on their own" about coming up with the funds to pay for their purchases, and (2) I will **not** refund their gas-money if they're unable to obtain their desired items.

A thought structure that has been induced by a hypnotic state that moves in a direction that where your perception of the consensus is perfect due to past events keeps moving without ever stopping as the momentum is too strong for contradiction of the conditions ends up causing the person to lie where serious repercussions would follow if not carried through.
It causes everybody's downfall in LIFE.
A realization I came to in a REM state that the RANGE CAST on SIRIUS XM is in tune with as the big investors control the AI perfection as they hold the switch to your continuing ISOLATION.
It never stops until.....
It is a mirror that changes formation as you don't see a mirror image but only what parts you can see the same way like being without a mirror when there is a mirror.

The scary thing in LIFE is the social networks expectations must be met as the POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT COERCION Is that your self fulfilling prophecy is you can't stop from being a PEDOPHILE.
The POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT COERCION makes a monster out of the most unsuspecting as the social networks had become so overwhelming in their belief systems about who you really are as a person.
You can't change the POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT COERCION once it has already hit the target that you are being pushed into oblivion and total awareness at the same time where it is ultimate aloneness.
Everywhere you go POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT COERCION is with us all but the one who understands this knows exactly the outcome as they are the person of interest without acknowledgement
The echo stops as you want to hear it but the POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT

What Megyn Kelly and Matt Walsh are advocating under the auspices of the bud light boycott. What it does is set a behavioral precedent so that they can control the behavior of their political opposition. They've threatened to do it again. They think they should be able to do what the woke types where doing to them by LITERALLY doing what the Chinese Communist Party is doing to Taiwan.
Hym "Hey, China is ALSO banning beer. They are banning the sale of Taiwanese beer as a form of economic coercion. That's literally what the people who lead the Bud Light boycott are doing! They are using economic coercion intimate companies into 'Refusing to acknowledge Taiwan as a country.' LIKE A FUCKING COMMUNIST! Is that what you're going to do!? YOU COMMUNIST SLUT!"
