The Jason-Streisand Effect

A Hyperbolic, yet sadly real, escalation of the original Streisand Effect, where relentless and disproportionate attempts to suppress, deny, or draw attention to a trivial or non-issue that not only fails but catastrophically backfires. Repeatedly.

Key components include:
1) Compounding Backfire
2) Self-Destructive Persistence
3) Total Reputation Collapse
4) Terminal Irony

1) Compounding Backfire-

Unlike the classic Streisand Effect where suppression attempts once amplify attention, the Jason-Streisand Effect involves multiple rounds of doubling (or sextupling) down, each time worsening the backlash exponentially.

2) Self-Destructive Persistence-
The Streisand-er refuses to course-correct, despite pleas and obvious chances to do so, instead escalating their efforts (Legal threats, Public denials, or aggressive PR moves) despite clear signs of mounting damage.

3) Total Reputation Collapse-

What started as a minor issue or even a misunderstanding or mistake snowballs into universal condemnation, turning even neutral observers into detractors.

4) Terminal Irony-
The harder the Streisand-er fights, the more absurd and meme-worthy their efforts become, fueling further ridicule and scrutiny.
Person 1: "What's going on with the Pirate Software Drama?"

Person 2: "After getting caught lying about his raid skills, Pirate Software pulled The Jason-Streisand Effect —deleting VODs, blaming his party, gaslighting his fanbase, and ranting on stream until even his fans called him a fraud."

The Green Hill Effect

When a piece of media uses a part of their past (an era, setting, etc) in order to gain more positive reactions from its fan-base through nostalgia and familiarity. This reaction stays until the novelty wears off & the fans gets tired of it.
"Billie Piper is the new Doctor Who!"
"Oh my god, when will they stop bringing back old characters? This is just The Green Hill Effect happening again!"
