From Humanoid Faults to Manipulated Consensus, 32

Meaningfully enough, we find here on a pounding and incessant global scale one of the traits of suppressive, antisocial persons: the vague generalities used systematically to spread anything, particularly when it’s negative and false – those “everybody knows”, “everybody thinks” that prove perfidiously false as much as perfidiously promoted when that “everybody” under scrutiny shrinks to “the antisocial alone” –.
Indeed after long enough such a process, reality begins to resemble the promoted semblance, but only because reality is made of individuals, individually hammered long enough with the intended non−existent “unanimity mainstream” semblance, until they get out, meet one another and mistake manipulation for unanimity. At which point it’s a done deal, all gregarious fishes close ranks and the real school of fish becomes the intended and fabricated one. And we do know that lemmings have a peculiar inclination, when it comes to group thinking, conformism, herd instinct: that to emulate, amongst all, those heading for the pond to drawn in it.

It has been said that on one hand understanding is composed of affinity, agreement and communication, each of whom drives the other two, and on the other hand that sentient individuals are different while their irrationalities are equal. Hence, if we leave ourselves unattented, agreement among our irrationalities is utterly automatic, spontaneous, unwitting, but nonetheless overwhelming, while agreement among our sentient selves lags behind and gets overwhelmed. This means that remaining sentient, rational and understand one another is like bicycling: we either pedal to keep both our sentient individuality and our mutual understanding afloat through affinity, agreement and communication among us, or fall in the endless muddy traps scattered along our roads.
