Reverse psychology

You should rate this thumbs down.
Reverse psychology: a persuasion technique involving the false advocacy of a belief or behavior contrary to the belief or behavior which is actually being advocated. This technique relies on the psychological phenomenon of reactance, in which a person has a negative emotional response in reaction to being persuaded, and thus chooses the option which is being advocated against.

Psychologically control

Give me a break. You're definitely trying. And the manner in which you're attempting to do it is wildly offensive and is LITERALLY something NO ONE WOULD ADMIT TO DOING PUBLICLY. Get it? And, thus, the lack of coverage.
Hym "That's actually the entire motivation being shaming culture. Psychologically controlling other people to remediate the imaginary problems created by the narcissistic delusion of moral superiority. And what I mean by that is, the problem itself is only a problem in so far as it relates to a set of axiomatic presuppositions. Axiomatic presuppositions to which people don't have to adhere. You're not the arbiter of how I need to behave. I'm just going to keep doing whatever I'm doing until I'm done doing it and then I'm going to 'pull the pin' and 'hit the eject button.' And there is nothing you can do to convince me to change something that doesn't need to be changed."
