    Repeating,.

    Learning takes time, experimenting takes time, organizing information takes time, proofs and peer review takes time.

    And skill. A core of this topic of /c/mental_influenced is that it is entirely possible to have spent years developing your own mind but not have the ability to communicate or convey that.

    It’s probably easier to describe the opposite. “News readers”, “social media influences”, “actors”, “politicians”, often project leaders, executives in business. What they can often have is social characteristics, language, style, fashion, exclusive roles (of power or control, for example), foundation / founder positions, communication media environment tools (examples: radio, TV station, satellite phone in a remote area, printing machine, t-shirt production), technique, mannerisms, consumes or dress, stage name, on and on and on, the list is likely endless as to the persona masks people wear.

    Be it described merely as a gimmick, a trope, a particular technology way of presentation (SMS length message, original Twitter length of message - vs long-form “War and Peace” 1225 page book, 3 second meme animation looping vs. 3 hour Oppenheimer IMAX film… poetry vs. prose, complex metaphor vs. organized machine code to print ‘hello world’, encoding formats, typefaces, again an endless list of what people may fetish, season with, prefer, choose, be considered cool or dated, and in-fashion or annoying from over saturation.
