Narrative Structures

Mjollniranism views narrative structures as blueprints for manipulating human communication through neural linguistic programming. Practitioners (Mjollnirians do not do such malicious activities) employ intricate storytelling techniques to exploit cognitive biases and drive desired outcomes. By crafting narratives that resonate with deep-seated desires and fears, they guide individuals toward predetermined responses. The approach involves dark psychology, linguistic programming, and strategic storytelling to exert covert influence. Villains seek control through linguistic cues and psychological anchors, ensuring the message is internalized. However, orchestrating these operations successfully requires rare intellectual caliber, often resulting in anticlimactic outcomes.

Imagine a scenario, using narrative structures, where a charismatic cult leader crafts a compelling narrative around salvation and enlightenment, using a devoted follower as a mouthpiece to convey persuasive messages to potential recruits. Through careful scripting and psychological manipulation, the leader influences the emotions, beliefs, and behaviors of the audience, steering them towards submission and unwavering loyalty.

Narrative Deadweight

A character, part or sub-plot in a book, or movie that adds nothing to the overall story.

Ron: "The part about the protagonist's goldfish was total narrative deadweight, but it did give us a great fish funeral scene."

Narrative Inertia

When the current media narrative has so much momentum that all news sources are covering the same topic and ignoring other unrelated news.

Science Dude: We finally figured out cold fusion! This is going to shock the world!
Friend Dude: Good luck, the pandemic has such much narrative inertia you'll be lucky to get a mention at the bottom of the page.

Meta-narrative

And it isn't 3 note.

Hym "No. Shithead. There is an entire anime dedicated to the multiplicity of meta-narrative that can be derived from this. What the actual fuck are you talking about? Do you know it's name? It's coming out with a 3rd season. There are literally dozens of meta-narrative in here. It's a literal masterpiece by all relevant metrics."

False Narrative

Nebulous rhetoric that is functionally equivalent to ✌️✊️✌️Hate Speech✌️✊️✌️ i.e. Hate Speech for conservatives. They are just making up equally vapid terms now. Like... It's fucking embarrassing. Our politicians and pundits are embarrassing fucking time-wasters. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Hym "False narrative is a pretty nebulous term and is subject to the same problem created by the term 'Hate Speech.' Like, it isn't a 'False narrative' to say that your religion is an incest cult. That is an ontological claim that is concordant with objective reality. So, there is what IS ACTUALLY THE CASE... And then there is THE NARRATIVE YOU HAVE CONSTRUCTED AROUND WHAT IS ACTUALLY THE CASE... And that narrative can be more or less concordant with objective reality but... The light is either on or it's off. You can make a narrative about lights being on or how lights are turned on but it doesn't affect the on/off paradigm. And this is why it's important to reject the narrativization of everything. It isn't ✌️✊️✌️a narrative✌️✊️✌️ it's what actually occurred or is occurring. Jordan Peterson has sold them on the idea (ha! I accidentally wrote idiot instead of idea because... You know, idiot) that everything is a narrative. Everything is NOT a narrative. The light is on. The light is off. These are not narratives."
