Another Perspective Of Manipulation

Another perspective of manipulative, is, the other person is incompetent or weak.

Pretty much, everyone is manipulative. Some just don't realize they're doing it, and most do it soo subtly, others don't realize it's happening. Very often, the subtlety has become a habit and a social norm. Take commercials ' guilt ' "destiny" ' and complements, for instance. They all, "secretly", cause you to do something in favour of the other person/organization. They didn't direct or ask you to do something; they've, just, made you feel a certain way and let you get to the conclusion they want. 

The worst type of manipulation is when it's done out of fear of exile. The inknowledge of their own fears of exile; the inknowledge of their manipulation; the inknowledge of if they, actually, agree with what they're passing along. Bigots or Haters are, sometimes, examples of inknowledge manipulation. They will shame ' guilt ' and attempt conversion of others into their way, but their way is a direct response of "fitting in". 

When people try to fit in, they will obscure themselves and their ideas (internally/personally) into pleasing others, so, others don't reject or abandon them. During this process, their manipulation is not "their own". As such, their manipulation can be considered as "not" manipulation, as it's not their will to begin with. However, because they are, still, manipulating, and they are inaware of their entirety, this form of manipulation is near-impossible to identify for either party, which makes it "the worst".

Under manipulation: as long as someone else does something they wouldn't normally do, and it's because they've communicated with you, you've manipilated them. It may take seconds... It may take years.

And, yes, there is such a thing as others legitimately-agreeing with you, and, that, can go either way, but convincement and influence is, just, another form of manipulation. The main difference, is, their realization and authentic desire to go a specific path because they've chosen to - under great consideration of information. (Not every path is a personal choice; some are followings... And some followings turn into leading, which obscure the origin of belief/not-what-i-wanted.)

Love: Potentially Defined As "A Dependency Or The Development Of One"

There's a chance, that, love is the abstract construct of dependency or the development of one. To love something may be a term for the need of something. The idea stems from one's love for things... What that something means to the person ? What gaps ' needs ' and desires are fulfilled when that "loved" thing exists in one's mind ?!

Perhaps, it is a level above biological-survival; possibly, within the realm(s) of social-survival and/or personal-survival.

Foundationally, this idea is referring to the literal idea of Love and not the figurative or colloquial expression of love (eg; i love that dress). However, the figurative ' slang ' and colloquial may hint at the literal idea of love - as most illiteral terms relate to reality.

When one loves their parents, what is that love ? Is it edible ? Can it be sold ? How many are there ?... It's intangible, yet acquirable. Most people love their parent(s), and they wouldn't exist or survive without their parent'(s)' presence and/or support. The same goes for guardians/caregivers. Those supporters, too, have been bestowed "love" to their profile - they are loved. Based on the history of what those caregivers have done and how they've promoted the survival of those who've been cared for, the correlation of Need (Dependency) being the definition of Love is strong.

When faced with a loved topic (eg; cars), the lover finds the topic of utmost-importance - something they believe they cannot live without. If something is needed for survival, that something is being depended upon. Though the topic may not "feed" biological-survival; it feeds mental-survival (social and/or personal). Mental survival is needed after biological-survival is satisfied. However, for some, the lines between biological-survival and mental-survival are widely-blurred - they may think their BS is at stake if their MS is not satisfied.

When faced with an idea, one may love something because it encompasses most of what they believe in - something that forms their current existing state (where, if any part is removed, they wouldn't exist anymore), thus, all that's inside the idea is needed (depended upon).

Based on these evidence, the potential is great.

Quote Of The Day - Practicality

Sometimes, what is seen as impractical is only what is not yet in practice.

Ignorance

Some people don't, but I mind being ignored.

It's a sign of Worth, Respect, Arrogance, and Stupidity.

WORTH - the person being ignored is not worth a few seconds of acknowledgement or response.
RESPECT - kind of synonymous to Worth, but venturing into the professional/political side of things, where an automated generation of response is not even available.
ARROGANCE - the person ignoring thinks they're too good to respond to trivial/simple things, and the only thing that matters is others accepting their expressions as if what they express is the sole benefaction of the world.
STUPID - often times, the person ignoring views the msg of the ignored as in(not)valuable and seeks great(er) value. This action neglects the potential of future value (potentially far greater than what they seek) from the ignored, thus, basically, "stepping on your own toe", as well as perpetually failng to discover the goal of value.

-Schrödinger's Sociality-

I liked you better before I met you.

You were always a potential, a possibility, and a definite.
There were never high hopes for you, as you were always a success.
You were always the rock, the cotton, the sweet, and the bitter.

Now that I've met you, you can never be all those things.
Now that I've met you, you're simply "stubborn".

Increasing Defense, Decays

[Most of] Our minds are our greatest defense, yet our weakest foundation.

It protects us by any means necessary for survival. "By any means necessary" paves the way for decisions to come.

A defense system, constantly under attack, will only evolve it's military. It's intel is based on solid war evidence - Things that can damage the self, and things that can destroy others.

A defense system, not needed and constantly protected, will only evolve a delusion. A world of no requirements - Too easy to accept, and incapable of evolving.

We cannot be ignorant towards the world around us. We cannot act on the assumption of a singular path. We cannot be a solid block - inyielding. We cannot be glue - accepting.

We must adjust to becoming the porous, yet solid, sponge that is capable of resisting and absorbing and rung out if necessary but maintaining a sliver of the past.

We must learn to evolve and evolve as a unit.

-Cultural Evolution-

The mirrors of time,
Reflecting repetition.
Security.
Avoidance.
Delusions.
And Pride.

Distortions provoking mutations.

Undervalued mutations that mark a displaced evolution.

Hope.
The element that fuels existence.

Yet, Hope,
Stunted by misguidance.

The ever battle of acceleration via maximum resistance.

-Do You Truly See The Good ?-

Delusions of good.
The ignorance of false.

Though many claim positive;
Many optimists.
Few can ignore what they do not like.

Honing in on negativity - Blood Hounds.

The true pessimist peers out when their beliefs are challenged.

But facts are not prejudice.
Only delusions are prejudice.

Sexual Psychology Of Rape

The sexual psychology of "rape" is quite fascinating. It is entirely incapable of substitutions.

There cannot be "consentive" rape, for it would be rendered ineffective.

The idea behind rape is ones ability to, virtually, (forcefully) fully control a situation, while receiving oppressable objection.

With the rapee consenting to rape, the rapee automatically relinquishes the "rapee" position and gains the "partner" position. At the same time, due to consent, the raper loses the "raper" position and gains the "rapee" position - due to the loss of their virtually-full control over the situation. Ironically, rape would technically cease to exist in that scenario due to two negative poles - a submissive and an incompetant.

Cubicle Psychology

The human mind is so vast, given given any amount of space, humans will undoubtedly use it all. Take this cubicle for instance, though it isn't cluttered, every inch is actually being utilized, including the supposed that seem empty.

The human mind requires constant reminders (hanging papers), requires focus and priority (tabled paper), requires reference (cabineted paper), and requires time to process (empty space).

This cubicle is the perfect example of the human mind. In relation, every cubicle is a reflection of the human mind directly associated with that cubicle; clear, cluttered, organized, random, partly cluttered and partly organized, all reflections of an individual.

Development Thought-Error

The problem with most scientists and most people, is that, they are trying to replicate themselves and improve on the replicant. What they should be doing, instead, is improve on themselves and replicate perfection.

Too many times would I see scientists placing implants and exoskeletons in/on people because of their retardations. These implants and attachments all bear the obstruction of independence. Inducing a dependence on luggage, preventing the growth of the body, traumatizing the body, and complicating life itself.

Too many times would I see people projecting their inabilities onto someone else and pushing others to rise to greatness in hopes, that, they can live vicariously through them.
 
I say "NO!". Why not develop ways to evolve the self !? Train the self. Alter life via thought or genetic manipulation. Instead of doping up a paraplegic-comatose patient with nano-bots, hair of wires, and an Iron Man suit, we should, all, develop ways in which "WE", the individual, have the ability to evolve our minds and bodies to whatever stage we'd desire/require.
