Every X Is a Worthless Thing That I Can’t Stand, Is Awful, and Shouldn’t Exist
I view many events through the proverbial lens of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). Herein, I’ll provide a psychoeducational lesson that involves thinking and believing which is rational (in accordance with both logic and reason), or not (i.e., irrational), as it regards REBT.
Here, “logic” is the interrelation or sequence of facts or events when seen as inevitable or predictable, and “reason” is a statement offered in explanation or justification. For instance, a modus ponens syllogism uses the following logical form: If p, then q; p; therefore, q.
Before I provide an example, it may be useful to know that one source states, “A theory is, in general, any hypothesis or set of ideas about something, formed in any number of ways through any sort of reasoning for any sort of reason.” Colloquially, a “theory” alludes to a mere belief.
If every theory in which I believe possibly could be true or real (p), then every theory in which I believe empirically must be true or real (q). Every theory in which I believe possibly could be true or real (p). Therefore, every theory in which I believe empirically must be true or real (q).
This proposition follows logical form; yet I argue that it isn’t reasonable, because what could be isn’t necessarily what is. Thus, I consider this syllogistic belief as that relating to irrationality. Nevertheless, I have little doubt that at least one person on this planet disagrees with my outlook.
Noteworthy, my worldview is subjective (characteristic of or belonging to reality as perceived rather than as independent of mind). Thus, not everyone agrees with what everybody else deems as rational or not. Irrespective of advocacy for equality, not everyone maintains the same views.
For clarity, the American Psychological Association defines subjective as “taking place or existing only within the mind,” and defines objective as “having verifiable existence in the external world, independently of any opinion or judgment.”
Also, a rational perspective for one person may not be considered rational by members of a group. For example, people dedicating themselves to the practice of science may fervently disagree with referring to a mere belief as a “theory.” I agree! Yet, this is my subjective view.
When paying attention to sociopolitical matters in the lead-up to the 2026 United States (U.S.) midterm election (11/3/2026), I’ve observed many irrational beliefs expressed by people online. I’m unsurprised by what I’ve witnessed, as politics and irrationality often go hand in hand.
For instance, people claim that capitalism, fascism, socialism, communism, and even the so-called “Epstein class” (regarding the late financier of questionable dealings, Jeffrey Epstein) represent variable X, which is of no value, intolerable, awful, and is demanded not to exist.
Now, REBT uses the ABC model to illustrate that when an undesirable Action occurs and you Believe an unhelpful narrative about the event, it’s your unfavorable assumption, not the event itself, that causes an unpleasant Consequence. This is known as distress or disturbance.
Noteworthy, with virtually any undesirable Action that occurs, it’s your unfavorable Beliefs which cause unpleasant distress or disturbance (Consequence). Given this framing of self-distress and self-disturbance, it’s worth noting that one REBT source states (page 71):
REBT conceptualizes [distress] as healthy even though it is intense. Other approaches to therapy have as their goal the reduction of the intensity of negative emotions. They take this position because they do not keenly differentiate between healthy negative emotions (distress) and unhealthy negative emotions (disturbance).
Now, REBT keenly distinguishes between healthy distress and unhealthy disturbance. Healthy distress stems from your rational beliefs about a negative activating event [Action], whilst disturbance stems from your irrational beliefs about the same event.
Complete elimination of distress is highly unlikely in an impermanent and uncertain world, wherein people conceptually suffer, struggle, and battle with, or merely experience hardship. Still, individuals often make matters worse for themselves by disturbing about such instances.
In particular, there are four predominate irrational beliefs which people often use to distress or disturb themselves: global evaluations, low frustration tolerance, awfulizing, and demandingness. When contemplating these unproductive scripts, think of the acronym GLAD.
Additionally, from a psychological standpoint, people distress or disturb themselves using a Belief-Consequence (B-C) connection. Of course, this isn’t to suggest that in the context of the naturalistic or physical world there is no Action-Consequence (A-C) connection.
From an A-C view, people associated with the Democratic Party, Republican Party, Democratic Socialists of America, Libertarian Party, Green Party of the U.S., Constitution Party, and so forth vote for X (Action), and person Y disagrees with their decided-upon vote (Consequence).
Still, from a B-C view, people vote in a way that person Y finds disagreeable (Action), person Y Believes, “Every X is a worthless thing [G], that I can’t stand [L], is awful [A], and shouldn’t exist [D],” and then person Y causes one’s own negative, but unhealthy anger (Consequence).
Addressing how people upset themselves with unhelpful attitudes, the ABC model incorporates Disputation of unproductive philosophies of life in order to explore Effective new beliefs. Whereas rigid beliefs cause self-disturbance, flexible beliefs result in an un-disturbed condition.
It’s a matter of irrationality to lump all of X into illogical and/or unreasonable GLAD narratives. Rather, person Y may use the healthy Effective belief, “Although I disagree with the way that people vote, and I’d prefer for X not to exist, it’s not helpful to use irrational perspectives.”
When using this Effective belief, person Y may endure negative, though healthy disappointment with sociopolitical matters (Consequence). Now, I invite you to consider use of rational Effective beliefs, rather than irrational Beliefs, concerning the 2026 U.S. midterm election.
