narrative theft

When someone tries to tell you what you think and why you think that way.

You just tried to tell me that "You Liberals reject everything Trump does without reading his tweets." that's narrative theft.

Narrative Photography

This new advertising (mostly..), tricknology that can be seen in any Prada ad : two waifish twentysomething fashion models living together, showed arguing. Hmmmm, cool?

I opened RS to be welcomed by a photo-narrative ad-athon of young-looking, sexy models in ohsogood fold-outs.. and I wondered : why the fuck can't they make ads like this in my country?! bummer!

Narrative Surfing

A populist-esque phenomenon. When someone adopts position after position because the position’s in-group popularity or astroturfed popularity.

This is most often done to increase (social) media engagement rather than being a sincerely held belief or only becomes a sincerely held belief as a result of its popularity and not its rationale or substance.

Surfing from narrative wave to narrative wave of popular opinion among one’s in group.

why are conservatives now supporting abortion and gay rights?

They’re narrative surfing dude.
