To move opposite perceived trends - of direction or magnitude - in order to gain distinction or advantage. To move against the flow.
As ideology polarizes, some individuals have adopted a counterflow strategy. Moving opposite the herd, not just in thought but, in terms of engagement. Reserved when others are engaged and engaging when others are reserved.
The most desirable selections are to be found not at the front but, rather, at the end of the banquet line. So I move in a counterflow fashion.

Get the Counterflow mug.A combination of the drugs benadryl (DPH or diphenhydramine) and robotussin (DXM or dextromethorphan). Usually used in a 300/300mg mix, the user experiences a lucid dream like state of hallucinations. The DXM takes away the anxiety and general fear caused by DPH adding a whole new layer to the trip.
DPH is said to potentiate DXM by inhibiting enzymes in the liver, thus causing more DXM to make it into the bloodstream. DPH will entirely get rid of the roboitch and can curb nausea caused by DXM.
This combination is bad on the heart and should only be used rarely. Unfortunately 'bad trips' could be caused by this combo if used irresponsibly. One should do it alone in a dark room with their favorite albums playing to trip observing the stunning closed eye visuals.
The term counterflipping was coined based on the fact that DPH and DXM are near polar opposites when comparing hallucinations. The term is also based on the fact that both can be bought over the counter, thus *counter*flipping occurs.

When a bro is walking and the breeze is going the opposite direction of his flow, thus messing it up.
This creates an unsettling feeling and he must push it back the other way. It's even worse if the broski's hands are full and he cannot fight the counter-flow.
{It is essentially the wind, but only in the wrong direction}
