JAKARTA - A video showing a TikTok Probolinggo celebrity getting angry with an intern at an intern at a supermarket has gone viral since yesterday. The reason is trivial, the TikTok celebrity named Luluk Sofiatun Jannah or Luluk Nuril was offended by being reprimanded by an intern student because the groceries he canceled were placed carelessly.

Luluk Nuril's angry action was recorded by the content creator team, then the video went viral until it finally caught the attention of netizens. This traumatized the student.

Luluk Nuril's social media comment column was immediately flooded with blasphemy. Not only that, the strength of netizens has also succeeded in breaking the lifestyle of hedon and flexing from Si Seleb. In fact, he is the wife of Bripda Muhammad Nuril Huda who has served at the Tiris Police for the past eight years. Because of his wife's actions, the position as the Head of Binmas of the Tiris Police, which has only been occupied for three months, has been missing.

Flexing culture has been discussed in recent years. But actually Kataflexing has been used in a book called The Theory of the Leisure Class: An Economic Study in the Evolution of Institution in 1899 by Thorstein VeBLEn. The book is an economic and sociological treatise, and criticism of striking consumption.

Luluk Nuril may only be one of a series of social media celebrities or wives who like flexing on social media. The culture of showing off is usually associated with showing luxury goods or luxury activities with the aim of getting validation from the community. Simply put, flexing is showing off.

Budayaflexingini is growing in popularity as social media users around the world increase. Another example of cultural flexibility is when someone often exhibits their luxury holidays abroad. The main goal is to amaze their followers and emerge a feeling of prestige from this luxurious holiday activity.

Psychology lecturer at Muhammadiyah University in Surabaya, Dewi Ilma Antawati revealed the reason why a person is flexible on social media. Dewi Ilma explained that flexing behavior is an impulsive behavior in establishing relationships. He also gave an example of aion that exhibits its beautiful tail to attract the attention of the opposite sex.

"In social psychology, it is stated that showing off something they have is done to show someone's social status, with the hope that it will be more attractive in the eyes of others so that they can expand their association," said Dewi Ilma.

Meanwhile, in clinical psychology, flexing is related to the insecurity that a person has, so there is an urge to show off what he thinks is superior to other people.

"That's why there are people who feel insecure coming to certain parties or events if they don't wear branded goods, and are more comfortable if they come wearing branded items, because there are concerns that others don't accept or consider low," he added.

A number of studies show that when a person feels sad, insecure, or needs recognition, they tend to be impulsive in buyingbranded goods to overcome these feelings. This was explained by Martin Lindstrom in his book Brandwashed.

Hobbyflexing or showing off has some negative impacts, especially for oneself. If a person cannot make peace with himself, then that person will continue to feel anxious, feel inferior, and humble. If this continues to accumulate, it will cause psychological problems.

Even though someone is exercising to increase their value, the culture of showing off can actually reduce a person's self-esteem.

Another impact of flexing is encouraging a person to behave consumptively. In order to comply with prestige and obtain validation, a person must continue to use money to buy luxury goods. Even though it is not necessarily useful or as needed.

The journal Social Psychology and Personality Science states that people tend to prefer friends with regular appearances rather than luxury. People who likeflexingumnya get bad stereotypes, namely lack of empathy. As a result, they find it difficult to make friends because usually people prefer to hang out with simple individuals.

In order not to get caught up in flexing behavior, a social psychologist from the University of Indonesia Dicky C. Pelupessy, Ph.D. said there are two things that can be done, namely implementing counterthinking and thinking for a moment before taking action.

First, by positioning yourself in people who see flexing behavior and secondly looking for other possible ways to increase self-esteem in addition to flexing.

"Try to think about how people actually react when they see me doing flexing. Whether they really will praise or not praise," said Dicky, quoted by Antara.
