The Left ostracizes for wrongthink, but the Right does not

I can't think of any case where any conservative ostracized former friends or family simply for holding the "wrong" views.

But "liberals" do this all the time. Disagreement is simply not allowed. Liberals" are in fact not so liberal after all.

This is their man tactic, in fact. "Agree with me or I'll never talk to you again." Supremely ineffective technique. Has never worked once in his history of humanity.

And when I say one is “not allowed”, it has several meanings. In the most direct and literal, it means if you were a pundit appearing on a major mainstream cable channel, you’d be immediately cut off and removed from the air were you to pose such an unmentionable. On the more suggestive or subtle side—let’s say an informal and easy-mannered online debate or back and forth between two essayists—you would likely lose ‘credibility’ or be criticized for going out of bounds, though it wouldn’t be explicitly called that. They might scoff and give you those primitively kinesic signatures of disapproval, politely—or not—signaling that they are unwilling to share your “information space,” social reality, or terministic screen framing with you.

The generally agreed upon postulate is that truth can stand on its own—it wouldn’t need to be aggressively protected against any attack that might chip away its facade like cheap plaster if it was self-evident. Anything that requires militant censorship and intricate linguistic snares to wrap it in a protective bubble of obscurantism is likely not related to the truth, but its opposite. The fact that these noetic nets are so widespread tells us just how much is being concealed by the narrative shakers. ...

All society is structured on a framework of terministic screens which act as goalposts, bounding our thoughts, expressions, and most importantly the narratives which are carefully conditioned into appropriate and stable realities. Theorists have deemed these “social realities”, part of the larger field of social constructionism. These realities serve as the undergirding supports to the massive steelworks of The Narrative. To speak outside of those bounds is to be looked upon as nonconforming, rejected and ostracized from ‘polite society’ and accepted circles.


From Ancient Greek ὀστρακίζω (ostrakízō, “to banish from a city by ostracism”), from ὄστρᾰκον (óstrakon, “earthenware vessel; fragment of such a vessel, potsherd”) (from the fact that when voting was held to decide whether to banish people, their names were inscribed on potsherds)

in the end you’re playing on one key aspect of human nature:

“rubes will happily believe damn near anything in order to avoid admitting that they have been played for rubes.”

in the end, cognitive dissonance is your friend here and you can use it to not only prevent the changing of minds but to bind them more strongly to your doctrine. it comes down to three things:

isolate

alienate

indoctrinate

and that’s it.

you need to be the only one speaking. no outside noise or perspective.

you need to make the outside look hostile, predatory, and menacing.

and then you push your dogmatic payload again as “us vs them” and “only we love you and they carry the awful taint of heresy” and faster than you can say “branch davidian” they are all back in line and rarin’ to go.

it’s culting 101.

of course, the problem with this is if you push it too far, you actually break their brains and they fall apart and have breakdowns and reality schisms and fractures, but hey, omelets, eggs, whatever. nobody said the cult business was easy.

OK. why am i telling you this?

it’s because an awful lot of people are recently noticing a “sudden” trend and it’s one i worry about. the trend is this:




this is real human tragedy. it’s wild, divisive stuff. and it can get A LOT worse than that. i’m not sure the folks pushing these ideas understand quite what they are playing with. (or worse, they do and just do not care)

and it’s pretty clear where this is coming from.

anyone who gets their news from TV or NYT is living in a parallel universe, one where the cult still reigns.

and these outlets have an actual, vested interest in keeping their viewers from understanding or even experiencing reality. ...

these are low identity people who, internally bereft of substance or morality became "people who are their ideas" rather than "people who have ideas." this sort of external fixation and validation of self causes one to experience all criticism or disagreement as a form of personal attack.

you cannot dispute "their ideas" without disputing "who they think they are."

they literally experience pluralism of ideas as erasure.

the actual existence of ideas other than their ideas causes them plain and threatens their sense of self. ...

I'm an ass hole as probably noted here. I just tell them they're a fucking idiot. I'm only polite with family and explain my stance and 9 out of 10 times they get it. A few retards don't.

I like blacks, I like Haitians, Mexican, etc. Get along with them. I don't have a racist bone in my body. BUT, what I know is they don't experience it. White liberals.

As I think regulars here know it's close to me. Raise a black child. Explain it everyday to randoms. "Oh you're doing such a nice thing" get fucked. This thread has got me angry. Like I wouldn't help a child let alone a family member? That's more a judgement on me is the way I take it. "You take care of a nigger, so nice of you" is the way I read/hear it from people. Fuck you and die you unsympathetic piece of shit.

My nephew's life is better but I don't need accolades. His life is still fucked up mentally though he does well. I'll be blunt, a semi alcoholic can raise kids better than most when my wife is gone 30% of the time. I'm the fucking guy. Liberals are cucked soy boy pussies. I take a challenge on. He's a drop out if he stayed with his mom. Straight A's, stellar athlete that works hard. While I'm proud, I don't need fake crocodile tears.

TL;DR - Liberals can eat shit. They're the racist.
