We are seeing this principle applied increasingly in all kinds of places – interpersonal relationships, work, and politics. What is a counter irritant?
A counterirritant is an agent that produces a superficial irritation in one part of the body that is intended to relieve irritation in another part. ~ Source
Unorthodox Definition: A person causes someone pain, and then wants to create another distraction in order to make that person forget about what they just did to them.
Example: Someone treats a person in a way that isn’t decent. The person gets angry about it, because it isn’t right. Then, the transgressor immediately blames the person(the person they just harmed) of doing the exact thing they just did to them.
The Counter Irritation Principle prevents accountability. To quote Dan Bongino from his show today, “Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.”
