Wikipedia is the king of circlejerklism

Circlejerklism of fake journalism is my new favorite phrase

“Source?” A, B, and C A cites B and C B cites C C cites “anonymous sources” Circlejerklism

Oh no... Rackets is doing shorts now?! THE GRIFT NEVER STOPS!

Nicks laughter ending in a grammar lesson is fucking hilarious

How on earth do these journalists even graduate with these kinds of practices?

Wow, that’s more complicated than what we did in prison.

I see Ryan the editor wanted to make this a short, but failed miserably. You can't go past 59 seconds buddy. Thoughts & Prayers 😔

It also works with Wikipedia and Journalism. Wikipedia cites an article why is bad, and journalists citing Wikipedia in the next article as proof that they were right. Happened with GG.

IIRC the more established/fancy term for this is "citogenesis" (coined by xkcd author though). But I like how circlejerklism sounds too :P

Speaking as someone who taught Critical Thinking as a grad student for 4 years, I believe the technical term is actually _pseudo-independent confirmation._ I could be slightly off, I've been unemployed for a long time, so correct me if I'm wrong, if anybody actually knows better.

Yep, the circle of life. ☝️💫

A feeds the story to B. C and D cite B. Then A cites B, C and D. Because A didn't have anything legitimate in the first place.

This should be a good one💯😂

Oh thank God he corrected him.

A refers to B refers to C refers back to A. Bonus points if one of the "sources" is Snopes.

Circlejerkilism is modern day proper reporting. Find a victim with a political stance you do not agree with, find a few willing untalented sycophants, agree to coercion, and call it a day. Basic reporting, from both sides, for the past two decades.

Listened to this live. Hilarious 😂

brilliant...

Its practically self explanatory CircleJerklism Okay I had a slightly different explanation. More akin to when a situation is in a problematic state, or in a state of disfunction, or malfunction and all anyone can think to do is in effect, if not in essence "do something, something must be done, we must do something. Except for whatever will actually work or solve the problem, or fix even just a piece of what's broken" primarily this is due to the kneejerk emotional Bleating and Trampling nature of the Herd Mammal that's found its way into position where it's role in the herd is to do something, whatever the something is, and out of panic and Cognitive Heuristics they default to their intuitive sensibilities which 9 times out of ten, if not more, into 99% of the time being wrong in a range from simple and forgivable ways to downright unforgivably egregious ways for which having run away from any actual fix, including alerting and getting assistance from the nearest relevant Mammal of Competence, degrees of punishment and atomement are by the circumstances themselves and the incurring of what otherwise was completely Unavoidable Unnecessary Suffering made imperative. I'm thinking of shit like the mess we are in now, in current year, as well as in particular the events of the Chernobyl Disaster.

Indeed.

Good term to coin Rackets

So many ism's.

I bet this is supposed to be a short

Circlejerklism, for easy reference: See: The View.

That thumbnail

Thumbnail is spot on 💦

Nick Rekieta, Unbreaded Culture Pope

🤣 unbreaded needs a citation, I bet there already is one lolz

I used to call it “idea laundering” but circlejerkalism is funnier.

This is a thing that actually has a name, a name for it is also 'Source Laundering'

RIP BOOGIE

Isn't this what the "Grievance studies affair" discovered in academia?

A great punk band

It's true, I've seen it on TV!

This is also called citeogenisis

circlejourkalism

"When you're writing a book and you source one book, that's called plagiarism, when you source two books, that's research, when you source three books that's in-depth, profound research; and so they go around in circles like dogs sniffing each others' tails, sourcing each other in an almost incestuous fashion." -David Irving

Chirclestirkalism-schism. Throw tha crooks in prison.

AKA Circular reporting

that is just reference chaining, it exists for decades in academia

while I don't agree with everything ya say guy yadda yadda and all that. This is pure gold, stuff like this is why are the grift king and the un-breaded pope from the order of F around and find out so much respect sir.

This is truth laundering - def been around for a while

That's why there can only be one Pope of Law Dope. 🤘😎✌️

Then they bring all their "mainstream news" citations over to the subect's wikipedia article, which they can also then cite.

💖👍

Curcklejerkulisms

OMG HILARIOUS!!!😹👃🥃😻

Twice as fun with a balldoe

nice

the US government does this shit all the time, the plant a story and then refer to it as basis for their concern

How is circlejerklism different from citogenesis?

Xkcd dubbed it citogenesis

I thought that was called citeogenesis

Example: Bill and Ted finding out that guy's name from their future selves, meaning there's no actual origin for his name.

sounds like a good way to start some Russian President connection.

Here’s the problem the battery’s cost just as much or more than the equipment and there disposable while being easily damaged or destroyed by operator error it’s not more durable it’s not longer lasting it’s not more environmentally friendly there not more energy dense depending on the tool it’s not always quieter and in a fire situation becomes a self oxidising unstoppable fire that can burn through metal

🤣😁🤣

🤣

You mean a Woozle?

Based

Isn't that just how modern academia works?

Information laundering in other words.

I thought it was the pea doe jo administration

Aka the SJWs aka the fandom menace

Semen expulsion after all of that.

See wrap up smear

Circlejerklism isn't made up. (probably in the back of your brain you heard it before) I thought it was slang only over here, England, whereby it is any industry that passes around the "baton" to eachother. So I am in property and we have regular sellers. These regular sellers will buy to regular buyers, who will then sell the same property again some months later for profit and in good times, it could be back to the regular seller! It drives the property prices/value up but doesn't actually help people or the market in general. So you call it Circlejerklism.

Sadly, this is not a new phenomena. Similar tactics are used by colleges and law enforcement.

Hi everyone Hey Nick did u catch Montegraphs live last night he is now harassing some other guy now how does he get away with Doxing him

That already exists. It's called "citogenesis"; ie "Facts" that have their genesis in two rctards, both citing the other as "source". Any Wikipedia page about internet politics does it 50 different times.

The real definition: what you get when everyone at hedonism II puts on their complimentary balldo TM

F editor

First! Circle jerk comment!

Is it when you surround yourself with people that build up your ego even though your audience cant stand them and your stubborness just keeps bringing the backstabbing pests on? Oh wait thats Nickism.

Bruh

Circlejerklism is when someone posts a portrait style video to my feed, did Monte steal Rackets password? Don't be a 🏳️‍🌈got, shorts are spam I can't disable.
