TRIGGERnometry · Trump Is the Greatest At One Law Of Power — And It Could Destroy Him - Robert Greene · 22 Apr 2026 podcast

You're talking too much, you're going to say something stupid.

So power is a game of managing the appearances because we're a social animal.

I don't judge you on, I can't see your character.

I can't see deep inside of you.

I can't read your thoughts.

I can see how you look, how you appear.

If I appear to be a certain thing, if I appear to be virtuous and good, you're going to judge me as someone who's virtuous and good.

You don't know that deep down inside, I'm actually a really nasty, evil, Machiavellian character.

This isn't, I'm not talking about myself personally here, right?

Yeah.

So social media gives you this tremendous power to curate your own appearance, how people see you, how people judge you.

And you're going to put out the things that are going to get positive attention, right?

Like you're virtuous, like you're in favor of all of the great causes.

Or nowadays that you're actually kind of so authentically angry and you're full of rage and, you know, you can be a bit nasty and people can even admire you for nastiness.

but it's an invisible realm.

I can't see all of the people who are emailing me.

They present this certain facade about who they are or on my Instagram feed or whatever.

I can't really see who they are.

And that gives them tremendous power to create these kinds of impressions.

It's a very, very dangerous world because it's not real.
