1
I've been asked a few times for advice on dealing with haters and honestly,
2
I don't know if I have any advice because the way I see it,
3
haters are secretly your biggest supporters.
4
And I've seen way too many examples of women
5
or just people in general who were very publicly hated
6
or at least had a period where they underwent some heat and because they didn't allow it to cancel them,
7
it actually worked in their favor.
8
Let's unpack that so that instead of quote-unquote dealing with haters,
9
you can leverage them to your advantage.
10
Welcome back to the Iggar playbook.
11
Today, we will be exploring the upside of haters and the power of hate.
12
Before we do so, we need to first understand the psychology of hate.
13
If we were to analyze hate as an emotion,
14
we can categorize it as a strong emotion,
15
which also means strong attention.
16
And in today's day and age, attention is currency.
17
People who quote unquote hate you,
18
they often spread your name even more than fans,
19
and in doing so, they amplify your name,
20
your reach, and therefore, your influence,
21
whether they mean to or not.
22
And there's several reasons and psychology as to why and how negative attention often travels faster and sticks longer than positive attention,
23
one of that being the negativity bias.
24
Our brains, they're wired to notice and react to negative events more strongly than positive ones.
25
From an evolutionary standpoint, we used to pay more attention to threats like danger,
26
betrayal, or loss because they helped us survive,
27
which is why even today,
28
bad news feel more urgent and more impactful than good news.
29
This is the same reason why many of us find ourselves focusing on
30
that one mean comment rather than the 10 good ones or the 10 compliments that we receive.
31
It feels more threatening and therefore more urgent.
32
The second reason is the relationship between emotional intensity and virality.
33
They say that people can forget what you say,
34
but they will always remember how you make them feel.
35
That is the power of emotions,
36
but not all emotions are created equal.
37
Strong emotions like anger, disgust,
38
and shock are more likely to be shared
39
because these are high arousal emotions that create energy
40
which encourages people to do something about it and to take action like sharing it,
41
talking about it, venting about it a lot more than respective positive emotions like being content
42
because when you're content even though it's a positive emotion it doesn't build up as much energy.
43
And as a result, it doesn't encourage as much action.
44
There's also social value when outrage is used as social bonding.
45
Sharing a collective outrage makes people feel connected to a community,
46
almost like being part of a team.
47
I think it was last month where there was this antipasto lady drama that was going on,
48
and I think that is a perfect example of this.
49
There was a woman who got invited to a neighborhood party
50
or gathering and she brought an antipasto salad with expensive meat that she brought from the store,
51
homemade mozzarella, and homegrown tomatoes because she wanted to make a good impression.
52
But the host wasn't very welcoming and so she left crying
53
and feeling very embarrassed and it seemed like this issue united the entire internet.
54
Sometimes it is about the issue but there's also social value
55
and it feels rewarding to be quote-unquote in on the outrage
56
because there is a sense of belonging and a feeling of community.
57
When you combine our negativity bias,
58
the emotional intensity of hate,
59
and the social value of outrage as social bonding, something interesting happens.
60
Any attempts to suppress or quote-unquote cancel something or someone,
61
it actually makes the issue at hand explode even more.
62
This is called the Streisand effect.
63
The harder people try to silence controversy,
64
the more attention it gets,
65
and the wider it spreads.
66
It actually came from the very real life example of Barbara Streisand who tried to suppress aerial photos of her Malibu home,
67
and before she sued, the photos had only been downloaded a handful of times.
68
But after the lawsuit went public,
69
tens and thousands of people downloaded the photos.
70
And so, you see how the attempts to silence or cancel something,
71
it often gives it more visibility.
72
The harder people push back,
73
the more powerful the message becomes.
74
These examples and explanations all highlight the fascinating psychological pattern of how
75
and why negative attention often spreads faster and sticks longer than positive attention.
76
And so now that you understand the psychology of this,
77
Why is it relevant?
78
Which leads us to the next section, the economics of hate.
79
In The Wolf of Wall Street,
80
there is that infamous saying that there is no such thing as bad publicity.
81
And that pretty much explains the economics of hate.
82
If you're familiar with Rebecca Black's song Friday,
83
you're probably aware of how many people say,
84
how much they hate it,
85
how cringe it is, and how bad the song is.
86
Yet, it has over 175 million views.
87
That is quite impressive for a song that everyone claims they hate.
88
And those who can tolerate the comments,
89
the hate, and the remarks understand the power of hate and its profitability.
90
Let's take a look at a few examples.
91
And one of the most recent ones is none other than Sydney Sweeney and her American Eagle campaign.
92
For background, she did an ad that sparked a lot of controversy online
93
because people thought the ads were too suggestive for a teen-focused brand
94
and on top of that people thought the message was also suggestive with the play on words
95
when she said my jeans are better than yours there was a ton of backlash
96
that drew debates created a lot of articles
97
and overall a lot of attention those jeans sold out
98
and american eagle made millions of dollars in revenue there is also that example with Michaela Nogueira and the L'Oreal scandal.
99
Michaela is a beauty influencer who didn't add for a mascara
100
and the TikTok blew up with accusations of her being not honest,
101
saying that she tried to fake the results of the mascara with false eyelashes.
102
There were tons of people making duets and breakdowns of her video,
103
literally analyzing it frame by frame,
104
zooming in and out, and she got a ton of pee for it.
105
But what exactly happened to the mascara?
106
It sold out literally everywhere and L'Oreal made tons and tons of money.
107
Kanye West is also a great example of someone who is always doing or saying something controversial and quite ridiculous.
108
A lot of people hate him,
109
saying he is arrogant, crazy,
110
etc. But we also cannot deny that he is famous and he has made his fair share of fortunes from it.
111
For business, understanding the power of hate and leveraging it means sales and literal profits,
112
but for artists, it can mean streams.
113
For celebrities, it can mean fame,
114
but for you, it can be whatever works in your favor.
115
Hate generates attention.
116
Attention drives visibility, and visibility can translate into very real-world and real-life gains.
117
Your haters, whether they mean to or not,
118
are amplifying your brand and your name for free.
119
Of course, not all hate is equal, nuance matters.
120
If the hate destroys trust and there is actual harm involved,
121
then of course it can create actual damage.
122
But if it's controversy, opinions,
123
or personality driven, or even success driven,
124
don't be afraid to lean into it.
125
And it definitely isn't the end of the world.
126
We've all seen this with Shira Seven.
127
She has plenty of people who hate her,
128
call her a narcissist, a gold digger,
129
and many other colorful terms.
130
And what does she do?
131
She stays true to what she preaches and she leans into it.
132
And even published books called I Bring Nothing to the Table and How to Avoid Dust.
133
This is genuinely what she believes and what she preaches.
134
It's not necessarily hurting anyone, it's just controversial.
135
When people started clipping her on TikTok,
136
she received her fair share of heat,
137
but her channel is growing and I'm sure her success and her money is growing as well.
138
And so let's tie all of this back to you and how to turn hate into power.
139
Because here's the truth, hate is inevitable when you're not really doing anything wrong and especially when you're doing something right.
140
But instead of fearing it,
141
you can recognize it for what it is.
142
Proof that you're visible, you're memorable,
143
and you're making some sort of impact.
144
I'm not saying that you should go out of your way to attract hate,
145
but what I am saying is that if you come across someone who you would categorize as a hater,
146
I hope that this episode can provide a different perspective.
147
A lot of people abandon their goals or their dreams the second someone makes a comment,
148
but the way I see it,
149
the moment people start quote-unquote hating,
150
it should be a sign that you're heading in the right direction.
151
And so if anything, whatever it is that you're doing, keep going.
152
The only way for no one to even notice you,
153
let alone talk about you or hate you,
154
is if you're doing nothing and you have nothing going on in life.
155
And so the power lies in how you choose to respond.
156
This is one thing that Trisha Paytas has said that I find so incredibly valuable.
157
She said that nobody can cancel you if you cancel yourself first.
158
And my takeaway from that is that you cannot control hate,
159
but you can control whether or not you let it cancel you,
160
your goals, and your dreams.
161
And not only this, you can use it to your advantage.
162
And so with all of that said,
163
I hope that this answers that question on how to deal with haters.
164
Haters are inevitable, especially if you plan on doing anything meaningful with your life.
165
You can't avoid the hate,
166
but you can leverage it,
167
which I hope that you do.
168
That's it for today.
169
Thank you for tuning in.
170
Be sure to check out the Aker newsletter for episode recap to join in on the conversation
171
and to help decide on what to explore next.
172
I hope to see you in our next episode and in the meantime,
173
as always, stay hot.
174
Bye!

為什麼要通過這個影片練習口語?

在學習英語口語的過程中,面對來自他人的負面評價可能是一個常見的挑戰。這段影片深入探討了如何用積極的態度應對“仇恨者”。通過理解仇恨者潛在的支援角色,我們可以學會將負面情緒轉化為個人成長的動力。這種思維方式不僅能幫助我們提升個人自信心,還能讓我們更好地練習表達自己的觀點以及情感。通過模擬影片中的對話,您可以提高英語發音和口語表達能力,尤其在雅思口語練習中尤為重要。聲調和情感的表達都會極大地影響語言的傳遞。

語法與情境中的表達

影片中使用了幾種重要的表達結構,值得英語學習者關注:

  • 情感動詞:如“hate”(仇恨)和“support”(支援),這些動詞幫助我們理解他人情緒的強度。
  • 比較結構:影片提到了“比起……更……”,這種結構可以用來進行對比,表達思想的同時增強論述的說服力。
  • 因果關係的表達:如“因為……所以……”,這種結構有效地連線了情緒與行為,使表達更為流暢且邏輯性更強。

在練習時,模仿這些語法結構,可以幫助您在日常交流中更加得心應手,尤其是在需要提高英語發音的情況下。

常見發音陷阱

在影片中,演講者的某些詞彙和語調可能會對學習者形成挑戰。例如:

  • “hate”:此詞的發音可能與“eight”相混淆,需特別注意母音的發音變化。
  • “attention”:注意母音的發音,尤其是重音在第二個音節時。
  • “emotion”:應重視發音清晰度,確保每個音節都發音準確。

通過重複及模仿您喜愛的演講者,可以有效鍛鍊發音,利用shadowspeaks與shadow speech等方法來提高您的口語能力。

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:

結構影片中的用法
定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物People who quote · woman who got · those who can
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的I've been asked · are created · be shared
現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事I've been asked · I've seen · has made

什麼是跟讀法?

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
