I don’t know for certain but my experience is that when I lose track of context due to memory overload, the other person can offer me a life raft of pieces of context that I will then cling to for orientation without evaluating closely. Only in retrospect will I be able to notice that what they said made little sense.
do you mean– by opening too many loops too fast?
Yes
Do you have insight into how this works? (Figuring out how/when “”“mind-control””” works ends up being relevant for my research)
Perhaps… when people buy their attention into a loop they’re also (implicitly) choosing to give up a piece of their agency, somehow?
