Ah, yes… It’s blatantly untrue from a magical and psychological standpoint. People try to pass it off as “our thoughts give off electromagnetic vibrations that affect reality” which is pseudoscientific bs.
As far as magic goes, it’s bunk too. “Just believe hard enough and everything falls into place” no, so much no.
I also really hate it when people use it to say addressing problems… *worsens* them and ignoring then makes them go away??? What nonsense???
And they even have the gall to say positive thinking will solve everything wrong in your life– not medical treatment, not communication, not addressing mental health issues, not meeting basic needs.
Yeah I just hate itAGREED.
It straight up victim blames people for the things that happens to them. Either they didnt believe hard enough OR they were thinking negative thoughts and attracted it to themselves. Thinking negatively occassionally and within reason (and if you have more, a therapist might need to help), is perfectly normal and is not the reason that bad things happen to you.
Just as the converse is true, that good things dont happen to you because you think about unicorns. Or because you think really hard about getting a new job else where, does not mean thinking about it caused it to happen. There is some level of difference here.
Plus it begs the question what is positive and what is negative in thoughts? Because those are subjective.
And also magically this is not a great paradigm and breaks when dealing with other paradigms, like animistic paradigms or orthopraxic paradigms (where your actions, not your thoughts or beliefs are what make the thing go) or Divine Will paradigms. It basically operates only its own little spectrum and feeds into its self fulling prophecies and imo, it sucks.
