“Resistances to contact” (contact that causes dissonance or negative affect) and “ego defense mechanisms” (including heuristics, gestalt qualities, logical fallacies, common objections in court, and cognitive distortions) are passive or active aggression against passively or actively aggressive (imagined or actual) past, present, or anticipated consent-, freedom-, or power-conflict, -manipulation, -persuasion (as in commercial advertising or political propaganda), -control, or -violation.
Algorithmic or systematic (central route) processing within the laws of logic and thought help determine which methods result in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that respect every other as self and vice versa—and which result in (consent) violation.
That’s all nice and good as psyche therapy and societal dyanmicals.
Truth is a whole hell of a lot deeper, though.
When you reify a hard limit above the ground, you hover yourself mid-air. Feels good man, but where’s the foundations? Nowhere you can see, so you’re forced to try and build mountains out of the molehills of your otherwise not bad observations and limit-ideas.
See what I mean, or don’t. Can’t even look through your own notions. Your brain defines itself. Silly
self=other is the ground limit condition for the possibility/capacity of unlimited fruition
it’s not so much remembering as articulating embedded eternal wisdom and creating in alignment with that (rather than nihilating against it into shadow…which really just shows it up more)
