Скачать или смотреть Dark Psychology Tricks: Fear Framing & Worst-Case Headlines

Ethical note: Real warnings use data; manipulative fear uses vibes.

1. Worst-case lead: Fear-based messaging starts with the most terrifying scenario—collapse, betrayal, disease, failure—so your nervous system reacts before your logic does.

2. Spicy language: Words like “catastrophic,” “epidemic,” “crisis,” and “everyone is at risk” are chosen to create urgency, not precision. They overwhelm nuance and push you into fight/flight mode.

3. Probability blackout: The trick is to show how bad something could be without showing how likely it actually is. Rare events are pushed like they’re around every corner; statistics, if used at all, are cherry-picked.

4. Escape seller: After spinning the fear, they present their solution—product, ideology, service—as the only safe way out. Your decision becomes less about value and more about “protecting yourself.”

5. Defense habit: When you feel scared by a message, pause and ask:
“What’s the actual chance of this happening?”
“What are other realistic outcomes?”
“Who benefits if I stay scared?”
If they can’t give clear probabilities or real comparisons, step back.
