Here’s a few little tricks I use. These may seem trivial and silly, but given that mimetic behavior is rooted in a very basic level of existence, I believe these counter mimetic attitude exercises are useful in maintaining the foundation of a anti-mimetic Maslow’s hierarchy. When I know I’m going to be exposed to a video advertisement I summon all of the rage and contempt I can to make my mental state as unlikely to retain the ad’s message as possible. I take perverse pleasure in letting my devices alarms/notifications ring without rushing to attend to them. Similarly I talk back to the maps directions voice.
