In this episode of FAKD, we break down the strange world of social media psychics, viral predictions, and the psychology behind why people believe them. From TikTok fortune tellers to a bizarre claim that aliens could abduct soccer players during a World Cup match, we look at how psychics operate, why vague predictions spread so fast, and how failed prophecies quietly disappear.
We also explore cold reading, confirmation bias, survivorship bias, and the attention economy that rewards the wildest claims online. Are these predictions supernatural insight, lucky guesses, or just really good marketing?
Sometimes the real mystery isn’t the prediction.
It’s why people keep believing it.
