Corporate Bullshit Receptivity?!?

LOL

I love the term, but I think we need to generalize it.

How about?:

Lawyer Bullshit Receptivity

Celebrity Bullshit Receptivity

Politician Bullshit Receptivity

Ideologue Bullshit Receptivity

Diplomat Bullshit Receptivity…

I could go on and on.

Corporate Bullshit Receptivity is a subtype of general Bullshit Receptivity, defined as “the reception and detection of pseudo-profound bullshit.” https://psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/t52525-000

Pretty hilarious that “bullshit” is a technical term in psychology…
