Yes, yes... "groupthink"... made famous, or infamous, by Orwell's "1984."
There must be SOME kind of comfort in it, for those afflicted with it, or they wouldn't desperately cling to the very thing that prevents them from thinking at all.
As an observer of human behavior, I've frequently been struck by how many of our spaces, both public and private, have constant background noise (some MIGHT call it music) or a TV running. It must be terrifying for some people to be alone and quiet with their own thoughts. And if their thoughts have been conditioned since childhood to be suppressed, the more terrifying a quiet place is for them.
I've visited homes and offices where there is a constant background of music or a TV on somewhere, that I just find highly distracting and a killer of conversation, much less thought and reflection.
So the safe and comfy voices on the TV and radio whisper sweet suggestions and mandates to get jabbed so we can ALL be safe, don't question the 'science,' and don't do your own research.
I see some of them at my gym, riding those elliptical machines and recumbent bikes while watching CNN for their latest dose of group-think.
I think it helps that I'm an INTJ, and can view my fellow humans quite objectively. We belong to a strange species.
Excellent reply/analysis. What's INJT? (This is a rough crowd here. Better to ask than try and let them come up with some stuff!).
I had a seminar on solving complex problems a lifetime ago ("TRIZ"). One of the main obstacles to accomplishing complex problem solving is not fully defining the problem being solved.
In the cases of cognitive dissonance and groupthink, this appears to be what needs to happen. Pretty sure most would agree from a macro level, the plan is to slowly make things crazier and crazier until as many normies as possible finally start saying WT Kek. From a micro (personal) level maybe we need to ask individuals what they've noticed that isn't right and then pull at those threads with information at our disposal.
Sounds valid. An INTJ is one of 16 basic personality types as measured by the Myers-Briggs Personality Inventory. I've been testing twice, 11 years apart, and both times ranked as INTJ.
Look it up, you'll see what I mean. Also, you might want to have yourself tested it's a fascinating revelation about yourself.
Could someone give TNBanjoMan a few extra upvotes for me? I'm only allowed one at a time. :-)
Heh, thanks, fren.
