For
those of you who assess me in my presence like I am not really there
and who do this as, but some, of thousands
of others just like you:
Does
my AWARENESS of you
and all that you have to say change
your evaluations of me at all? Or does it change your evaluations of
yourselves and your
own awareness levels? The answer to that question is usually, “no.”
THIS
is what it is like to be the group's
assessed and evaluated one. Of course you must also never fail to add
this part:
(Get
the POINT:
This group acting out is denied
to exist
and is then re-framed and explained AWAY
as my paranoid delusions, hallucinated conversations and attention
seeking behaviours because
that is HOW
dysfunctional groups make REALITY
ITSELF
disappear, by proclaiming It to be a problem of perception/reaction
located WITHIN
the one the groups define as “defective” for having
an unwanted
awareness of THEM
and of what they do
as a group. This is group related consciousness splitting. It is
also the means of producing a paradox.)
Remember
now...if I don't
speak up then I deserve what I get AND
if I DO
speak up, then I am getting just what I deserve. I'm a very
“deserving” person, aren't I?
You
see... you who “test” us; our reactions to you
are NOT
based on your
level of awareness but are based on our own.
Our
“testers” test us to see what kind of a reaction they can get.
Often, when they do this, we look shocked or confused. The tester
assumes that is the reaction to the test itself;
that it is the reaction of an inferior, tested one to the superior
tester's test question or performance.
Most
often though, the reason we look confused or shocked is because we
are wondering – why is this ass-hole testing me? What, exactly, is
it that this moron is trying to do? What's with the duplicitous
performance bit? Or perhaps, it might be....who the hell is THIS
sanctimonious, overbearing jack ass who is so bloody arrogant that
s/he thinks s/he has the right to “test” me just to see what kind
of a reaction s/he can get?
Of
course most
of us being tested for reactions are too polite to actually SAY
that to our testers directly. Finally, I am learning to be a lot
less
polite and a lot more like my testers who are teaching me by their
example, how to be more normal... like them.
