Thank you for the response. > i can see that your perspective is slightly skewed from mine. To be expected. I have a skewed perception from most and I dig and try to sample things from as large of a spectrum as I can. > we can be friends. I hope so, and hope I don't offend in any way either. > i cant help but notice and react to things that my people have always thought were wrong. I'm not sure who you mean by "my people" but I'm assuming those close to you. Note that people who are "asleep" aren't yet able to notice such differences i.e. well meaning people get involved in drag queen story hour because of reasons like "love thy neighbor", etc. I would say I was more permissive of such things before getting "red-pilled" (which never stops by the way, it's like an infinitely layered onion). It's good that you notice such things. However, what I was getting at is that when people drift in perception and ecosystems they start to have different moral matrices and alignments and drift outside of others filter bubbles of comfort, so to speak. That Righteous Mind book that I linked previously showed that both democrats and republicans tested in MRI machines both showed the same kind of scans as seeing maggots (i.e. vile hatred as they'd seen evil) when shown ideas of each others morality. Both sides have a moral compass and it's just that the two sides have drifted even to the point where reconciliation may not even be possible without some cognitive or shared crisis. The revelation comes when the whole concept of "evil" becomes challenged. I'm not saying a miswired person isn't dangerous as all hell, I'm just talking about how this idea of "good" and "evil" becomes a dangerous, lazy paradigm if we're not careful. They are viewpoints that are often hard to define, or pin down. However, some people are literally sick and have no sense of natural order, so they emulate what they think it is and often don't even realize they are skewed. These people are *highly dangerous*. I've had to deal with some and can for sure say many of these people end up as lawyers, doctors, professors and whatnot. For example, academia is a vile place of seething backstabbers and visceral sharks, but there the morality is more papers. In banking, if you don't create money you're shunned which corrupts and perverts many. If you touch on any high level in any field you will come across such people, guaranteed. The manifestations and results of such peoples actions are often characterized as "evil" but I have realized there is something more subtle about it. > i have the perspective of a sheep, but i have the mind of a wolf. If you can harness the wolf and empathize with a sheep you're probably not a psychopath. I think I can appreciate what you're trying to get at though. What I think you may be morally striving for (or that I perceive you are saying) sounds like the concept of "Level 5 leadership" (from Tribal Leadership, a great book). Another one is Stephen Covey's "7 Habits", where he outlines the path of harnessing and manifesting empowerment in yourself first (being proactive and whatnot). Then seek interdependence with others. Eventually, you will find there are some people that just don't want (or can't understand) interdependence, and never graduate from independence or even dependence. One day I became totally awake to this and things became crystal clear. I now have brilliant relationships and am part of a relationship that is more than I realized was possible. It's not what I though it was going to be, but better. All the strange subversion going on and the poisonous effect became second nature to measure. Hopefully that makes a bit of sense and touches on what you're trying to say?
