I spend zero time gaslighting my followers on "ignoring the FUD" and diamond hand. It's incredible dangerous mentality. It works great if you actually hold a generational company but extremely dangerous mentality when you hold a shit company. I'd rather be alert and weight the news as they are against my thesis. Below is a post I dissected from a 100K influencer with claude... Bottom line: This is “diamond hands” conditioning. It pre-labels any future bad news as fake, so followers keep holding (and keep the price up) no matter what comes out. “Being scared, not knowing what you own, will wreck you” → The opening is sound advice, and it earns your trust. The rest of the post then flips it into “ignore anything negative.” “FUD can come from any reporter, any talking head, anyone” → Pre-emptive discrediting. Every critic is lumped together as noise before they say anything, including a legit short report, a bad filing, or a dilution notice. “Algos, nefarious parties amplify it” → An invisible enemy. Drops become a conspiracy rather than information, which makes the tribe more loyal. “MASSIVE drops on literal BULLSHIT” → It assumes every drop is unjustified. Sometimes a drop is the market pricing in real bad news. “Be steadfast… or exit in the next leg up” → This shames sellers as weak, and it quietly promises a “next leg up” as if one were certain. “I was born for this / Bring the FUD / smell of FUD” → Identity and bravado. Holding becomes a personality and a team, not a decision you re-evaluate. What’s missing → No ticker thesis, no numbers, no mention of what would make him wrong. Real conviction comes with a stated sell trigger. The tell: Good investors say “here’s what would change my mind.” This post says “nothing should change your mind,” which is exactly what someone needs followers to believe if they’re holding a volatile, hype-driven stock.
