I read body language, voice cues, etc. Use deliberate "shock" techniques to draw them out of their "trance" state. But you have to quickly spot what is going on. As a former reader that should be no problem for you as you would be up on their tricks. I took me a long time to learn and I'm still learning and slow to the draw.

You do not respond to me like you do other posters. Perhaps you are not anywhere near the truth of your situation. You still seem to be defending the "hive". More likely you're just a fraud, still under control of the "hive" and on a mission unbeknownst to your conscious self, merely the illusion of being disconnected but being influenced by the "hive" on a deeper level. You're not to be trusted.
