  • Summary In this episode of Unsolicited Inspiration, Niv Fishbein explores the dynamics of social media influence, particularly in relation to Israel and the Jewish community's response to tragedy. He discusses the rise of influencers who gain attention through their posts about Israel, questioning the depth of engagement and the tendency to focus on sadness within the Jewish narrative. Fishbein delves into psychological concepts of pain and pleasure, emphasizing how these emotions shape behavior and motivation. He advocates for a shift towards seeking pleasure and positivity rather than merely reacting to pain and survival instincts, envisioning a future where the Jewish community thrives without the need for tragedy to inspire action. Takeaways Influencers gain authority by posting about Israel. The Jewish community often focuses on sadness to motivate action. Pain is more impactful than pleasure in human psychology. Survival instincts drive the Jewish response to tragedy. A shift towards positivity can lead to a more fulfilling community. Social media can amplify messages but may lack depth. The need for tragedy to inspire action is a recurring theme. Understanding pain and pleasure can help reshape community narratives. The Jewish narrative should include joy and resilience, not just suffering. Striving for pleasure can lead to a more proactive community.
