Metagaming

(also spelt "meta-gaming") Definition 1: An act or strategy, either in a game or in real life, that a character, player, or person does that is intelligent in a way that may seem beyond others' expectations of them.

Definition 2: (in a satirical sense) Something so stupid or unskilled that the only way to make fun of it by acting like the person is a genius.

(Definition 1:) "Dude, Fran Bow was metagaming like crazy, how was she so calm after all that?!?!"

(Definition 2:) "Yo, did you see Donald Trump's letter to Denmark? He was fuckin' metagaming with that one."

Metagroupthinking

The insidious, higher-order groupthink where a community becomes collectively convinced of its own immunity to groupthink because it is aware of the concept. This creates a blind spot of superior self-perception. The group (e.g., rationalist communities, skeptic circles, critical theory collectives) uses its knowledge of cognitive biases and logical fallacies as rhetorical weapons against outsiders, while its own sacred cows—shared ideological assumptions, preferred theorists, in-group jargon—go unchallenged. Awareness of the trap becomes the very mechanism of entrapment.

Example: A "rationalist" mastermind group meets weekly to make decisions using Bayesian models. They proudly discuss confirmation bias. However, they all share a deep cultural assumption that technological solutionism is always correct. When a member questions the ethics of their AI surveillance project, they're met with sophisticated charges of "status quo bias" and "akrasia." This is Metagroupthinking: using the language of debiasing to defend their own unexamined, shared bias.

Metagenetics

The study of how traits, behaviors, and weird family habits skip generations, mutate, and recombine in ways that classical genetics cannot explain. It's the field that asks: why do you have your great-grandmother's nose, your father's temper, and your uncle's inexplicable ability to parallel park anything on the first try? Metagenetics suggests that DNA is just the hardware; the software includes ancestral trauma, family legends, and that one cousin's questionable life choices that somehow echo through the generations. It's genetics for people who suspect their family is weirder than Mendel's peas.

Example: "He blamed his fear of commitment on metagenetics—his grandfather had cheated on his grandmother, his father had done the same, and now here he was, running from anything serious. His therapist suggested that maybe it wasn't genetic, maybe it was just learned behavior. He said the distinction was academic and he was still single."

Metagrifting

A type of political grifting in which one uses political websites and infrastructure, without taking a position, in order to scam people.

I tried to register to vote, but I ended up on a fake site. This metagrifting cost me my personal information.
