A term for the seemingly contagious sense of delusion and lack of common sense exhibited by some influencers who are out of touch with the rest of the world and/or blinded by fame and money. Coined by YouTuber Antonio Garza.
I saw someone using their daughter's trauma to farm clout on TikTok. She must have influencer influenza.

the vicky influence basically just means you have no concept of danger no matter how many thousands to millions of real life cases have happened because of these situations. stay safe out there. don’t be a vicky.

Get the The Vicky Influence mug.Someone so weak minded, they use false media reporting to help them decide how they feel about anything instead of actually just looking at what is happening.
Even though the country was in great shape, Seth voted for Biden because he was a media influenced idiot and bought all the fake reports. Now the country is doomed and Seth realizes he was indeed a media influenced idiot.

Get the Media influenced idiot mug.Not to be confused with "power", influence can be broken down into two dimensions. First we have "direct" influence which is "I tell you to do something. You do the thing I tell you to do." The motivating principle can vary and include Monetary gain (I pay you to do things), status (You respect me or my station and want to please me), allegiance (We are on the same team and/or I have elevated status within a group). Secondly we have "indirect". This happens when a "credible source" posits a "school of thought" or a "framework of conceptualization". As soon as an individual accepts the framework; they are effectively "under the influence" of the source (albeit indirectly) and will then act out the tenets of the framework without needing to be told what to do. This influence can be Benevolent, Malevolent, or Benign.
Iam "Ok. So, yeah. That, I think, kind of vaguely ties into the 'influence' concept that I've been trying to flesh out (i.e. Purple-Man theory). So, let's say I posit a "framework of conceptualization". I outline the tenets of the framework and you accept it as "truth". This framework (now) becomes the lens through which you view the world and you will likely act out the framework and the tenets as outlined without the need for me to use "direct influence". This raises several questions. The first of which being 'Are you the framework you've adopted or the ego that adopts the framework'? You could also ask 'to what degree does the framework usurp the ego (if at all)'? So... I guess we'll start there."
Hym "They are the framework. That's the presupposition of the NPC (Non-Player Character) nomenclature that I coined in the earlier stages of my work. By adopting the framework you become the framework and act it out completely."
Iam "Well, no... Not entirely. There is always some deviation from the framework and through argumentation and conversation you can get people see the nuance that exists outside of the framework."
Hym "But they always default to the framework after the conversation ends. We've seen it many times. Cognitive dissonance prevents the actor from adding or subtracting from the initial framework."
