Summary
A lot of the women listening to this have survived a relationship with someone like Jesse Ridgway. The manipulator. The performer. The partner who takes your worst day and makes it about them. And when a man like that shows up on your feed doing exactly the things the person in your life used to do, something in your brain says: I need to see this named. I need to watch someone call it what it is. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott explains why that instinct is so powerful, what’s happening in the brain when moral outrage triggers the same dopamine hit as direct validation, and why the uncertainty of Jesse’s content — real or fake, you never know — hooks the audience the same way a slot machine does. She looks at whether the audience is co-dependent in this dynamic, whether every click is supplying Jesse the way a partner supplies a narcissist, and what consuming this kind of content daily is doing to the developing brains of teenagers.
