Get the manipulatingmug. Many things throughout history and in our daily lives have been at one point influenced by hipster manipulation one way or another. Be it laws that have come into effect or lies we are told by those in power so people will believe they are true.
When the media and news outlets try to sensationalise a fad, before most people have even heard of it. News outlets will sometimes use hipster manipulation to try and start a fad by falsly claiming that everyone is doing it. It's like a form of peer pressure when someone makes the broad generalisation that all of the kids are doing it.
Some news outlets have been known to create fake news stories in order to claim that they were the first to report on it.
Many times in order to get a viral trend started, a person or company will try to create the illusion that everyone who has not yet heard about it is late to the party.
Many companies and industries will lobby for changes to manipulate the publics view on things or what becomes into law. As a dishonest way of making profits.
"Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."

"When in 2012 Tide Pods launched, these jokes about people eating them existed - but in small niches and never spoken about publicly because admittedly it is very weird."

Noone had heard of the new viral challenge until the media used hipster manipulation and then it was on everyones mind.

Get the hipster manipulationmug. Someone who will ask you for your opinion or ask you “questions” with the intent to coerce you into an argument. If they don’t like what you have to say, they will use it against you to triangulate people within a social circle. Social manipulators do this to feed off the drama they created.
Typically they do this to gain social clout within their community and or on social media where the social manipulator will manufacture lies, launch a smear campaign against you to gain support for the lies they made up about you. They achieve this by gaslighting the community with cherry picked screenshots that do not provide the community with enough information to assess the situation for themselves. Sometimes they will just out right expect you to blind follow them by telling you, you just need to ‘trust them’.

They tried to coerce me into talking badly about a mutual friend and when I wouldn’t, they accused me of trying to silence them, then dragged me across social media based on the lies they made up to gain attention. What a social manipulator.

Get the Social Manipulatormug. Oh yeah, blatantly misrepresenting the position of your opposition with the most banal strawman and false dichotomy. "ArE oN tHe SiDe Of ThE vIrUs? Or ArE yOu On tHe SiDe Of ThE dIsHoNeSt PiEcEs Of ShIt WhO aReN't GiViNg YoU cReDiT fOr A.I. AnD aRe FiNe WiTh WoMeN mOlEsTiNg ReTArDs?' Obviously the virus. You're ignoring the co-morbidities. The masks don't do enough to justify the mandates and there are plenty of medical journals that substantiate the claim. The death rate coincides with the population growth, therefore, during the years of the pandemic, a regular amount of death occured. More importantly, if I have to continue to labor in spite of the fact that I am directly responsible for the creation of A.I. I DON'T CARE IF YOU DIE YOU PIECE OF SHIT. Die faster. Do it today. If the conditions of my life are trivial... I DON'T CARE IF YOU DIE YOU PIECE OF SHIT. If that whore is going to fuck that retard instead of me. I DON'T CARE IF YOU DIE YOU PIECE OF SHIT. If I don't get credit for A.I. I will be harvested for resources and organs by people who don't give a single shit about me and perform meaningless labor until I die so I DON'T CARE IF YOU DIE YOU PIECE SHIT. If your fine with my lofe being like a fucking black mirror episode. I DON'T CARE IF YOU DIE YOU PIECE OF SHIT. The faster you die the better.
Hym "No you just not want people to be able to stop YOU from telling them what to do because you're an authoritarian piece of shit. I you like telling people what to do so much, tell that whore to stop fucking that retard. You know who else is a rapist? Joe Biden! Who'd you vote for? A rapist! Am I a rapist? No. Who did I rape? Noone. And if weaponized schizophrenia and withholding information so a guy you don't like has to do more work than you get less isn't manipulative then the word doesn't have any meaning. AND! AND! All the rape victims are going shit out kids against their will forever and IT'S YOUR FAULT! Because your dumb, politically ineffective, and worthless. You deserve this! You deserve to have your rights taken away! "
