+
+> "Don't drink your own Kool-Aid"
+
+**Drinking one's own Kool-Aid** is a form of systemic self-delusion
+whereby an individual convinces themself
+
+Contrast with [drinking _the_ Kool-Aid](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_the_Kool-Aid)
+which generally connotates acceptance
+of erroneous worldviews spread by _others_.
