Treating a habit as a belief can bring you all sorts of
trouble, if it leads you in the wrong direction.
“Hi-Ho, Tinfoil! Away!”
=====================
Yes, there’s a tin-foil hat brigade in the business.
For those not familiar with the expression, it arises from the
belief, held by some folks, that they need to wear tin foil on
their heads to keep out the alien mind-control rays. It’s been
expanded in common usage to describe anyone who espouses
conspiracy theories that are so outrageous that they make most
people wonder about the good sense of those who believe them.
An example in this field came up when ISPs first started using
spam filtering systems. There were a few very loud people out
there promoting the idea that AOL and others were blocking spam
so they could keep control of online advertising for
themselves. Even more bizarrely, that they were colluding with
SpamCop and Spamhaus to “keep the little guy out.”
The proponents of this “theory” attracted followers from among
those who’d rather believe something silly than consider that
maybe – just maybe – there was a good reason for blocking spam.
It was more convenient to believe in that unlikely conspiracy
than to take responsibility for their own actions.
The current incarnation of this insanity is the belief that
“the Gurus” all promote each others’ products in order to
“drain money from gullible people, and keep them from buying
from the little guy.”
Yeah. Really. I’ve seen people make exactly that argument,
publicly. They seem blissfully unaware of what it says about
them or their attitudes toward their prospective customers.
Scary stuff, but they believe it.
The corollary to that one is the idea that these self-same
“Gurus” have banded together into closed groups, deliberately
keeping “the little guy” from making good, by not promoting
said “little guy’s” products.
As the gecko would say, “Come on, people.”
….
Let’s ignore the fact that new people enter these allegedly
“closed” circles every year. And that no-one shows up on the
scene as a full-blown “Guru.” (I hate the way that word is used
these days.) Or the notion that established players have some
sort of obligation to promote the products of people they don’t
know.
To see the real problem in this belief, all that’s needed is to
consider what kind of person sees friendship and assumes
conspiracy, or views earned respect as elitist exclusion.
Would you want to do business with someone who sees the world
that way?
….
To see through these sorts of things, just ask yourself if
there’s a normal, sensible reason for the behavior that’s being
described as a conspiracy. In virtually all cases, there is.
And it’s almost always the real motive.
People believe this stuff because it gives them an excuse that
takes away the responsibility they have for their own results.
Don’t bother arguing with them about it, though. Not unless
you’re doing it publicly, to educate others who might be
reading your words. The people who preach it are not going to
let go of their paranoia.
They can’t. It’s the only ground they’ve got to stand on.
….
As a rule, I don’t believe in conspiracies. I look for
confluences of interest.
When you hear someone talking about a plot to keep the little
guy down, the odds are you’re talking to someone who wants
something they haven’t earned, or wants an excuse for not doing
what he thinks he’s expected to do.
They also might – just might – be crazy. Take the necessary
precautions.
And pass the tin foil.
