cognitive dissonance!!


cognitive dissonance is when opposing ideas share the same space.....in your head....oh no!!!

for example; I love companionship with this man because he will bring me orange juice in the morning....I hate this man in my personal space because he sucks me dry and uses the orange juice morning thing to spend time when I would rather be alone......

everyone will share opposing thoughts in their head from day to day..year after year...and make excuses for it and rationalise why they do it....mostly people will not even get to the stage to question....lucky them....poor us...

these are the people who are manipulated by politicians who are in turn sometimes manipulated by corporations or family first groups, living their lives questioning only a few things here and there on the immediacy of how big scheme plans will effect them enter ------> what do I get, buzzcocks

THEY ARE OUR VOTING MAJORITY!!!

I like to think I question everything....most of all myself......indeed the last bit...you know questioning yourself can indeed be toxic, especially if you are listening to MAJORITY type people and taking it all on board enter ------> loser, beck

ever pervasive thought patterns of peoples shocked looks every time you talk versus the seemingly rational head noise that pervades your head = cognitive dissonance

so I came up with a solution fairly early on and I believe it's healthy....are you there?? enter ------> life on mars, david bowie

imagine yourself on earth when the zombies finally come and eat everyone......who would you rather be left on earth with?? Procreation of the species isn't an issue that I have thought out with this one....we can't always be heroes

inventive people, handy people, people who will get what you are on about if you finally decide to speak.....those who aren't shocked into stunned silence when words come out of your mouth....people who have an understanding of what it is like to question, to formulate, to devise without wondering if they are singing the Buzzcocks song

hang on to your like minded friends, they will help you hide the bodies ;)

you may not always agree, it may not always be about getting pissed on the beach and having pillow fights in your teddies and having endless barbies in the summer.....you may not even see them very often but they are always there.....they help tell your story when you are too tired to. Another importance that I might stress is to tell your friends stories and help hide the bodies.....

the looming spectre of the brain eating cognitive dissonance doesn't stand a chance to take over if you have back up.
