Truth is not welcome at Blockbusters
I do not rent movies very often, but tonight I decided to see what I might find.

When I was paying the cashier asked me if I would like popcorn or candy with my movie. Without thinking, I jokingly asked, "What!? Are you trying to poison me?" Deer in the headlights. Then I assured her I was only joking. She gave me a courteous half-nod.

Then she went on about some savings plan if I bought some membership card, etc. Again without thinking I said I don't rent enough movies to make it worth the money, and besides all the crap coming out of Hollywood these days is either propaganda or just a reflection of the sick collective unconscious mind.

At that point she frowned and wouldn't make eye contact any longer. I realized that she possibly felt insulted.

Have you noticed that when you don't sugarcoat and tell people how it really is, they respond as if you are attacking their very identity? Which for the most part you are...

Did you consider that these people ask these things because they are forced to and don't really care if you want said items or not?

Yes, I've noticed that.

But it is not an attack on their identities.

It is an attack on the 'repeater phraseology' that hypnotized people so unwittingly recite over and over again.

Yes, of course. That is why I try to build a rapport on a deeper level. I know what you mean here, but not everyone in these positions reacts the same. Some people will ask what do I mean exactly.

Of course, after asking the same questions over and over eventually they go into a deep trance, and that is where they live their lives on a daily basis.

Indeed. I try to threaten my own identity on a regular basis. It always feels like I'm dying. The ego doesn't like it. In another six months I will be a completely different person with a completely new set of beliefs. I'm getting used to it.

If you know a way out, please enlighten me. In my experience whenever I try to flush out all ideologies, eventually a new one just creeps in. One belief replaces another. How not to be a monkey devoid of programming? Live alone in a cave?
