    Should we let this stay?

    Sounds like something Ixas would say in the first place.......and it's likely to cause trouble.

    Sick Systems & The Box Mind
    By lostcoyote in Non-Dog Related

    The human group is tribalistic - holding together by enforced conformity which punishes non-conformity and uniqueness. The only way to conform is to block energy - mal-adapt and live by rote. This dulled adaptation created mediocrity. In groups we compete through established rules based only on tradition, precedent, (or in the case of dysfunctional systems) the fears and anxieties of the dominant. Our uniqueness - our biological striving to be and become our highest potential - is blocked, our spirit choked.The mental adaptation is the box-mind. Box thinking is the mentality of the crowd: it sees statistics as the truth, stereotypes as good and right, and group consensus as "morality." The box mind is a mindless clone that chooses not to be independant. The box thinker is legalistic and concerned only with appearance - bringing harshness to personality. He may be in total agreement with you, and flip-flop suddenly when getting with another box thinker. A politician fits the box mentality like a glove. Consistency in thought - trustworthiness - only comes with true independance and strength of conviction which the box thinker lost long ago. To buttress up strength he relies on bloat, boasting, and backstabbing to gain approval.The "herd" is not a person but a mentality. through constant feedback and conformity, it dances in perfect harmony as if to a drum. This induces a trance state where, no matter what, "all seems normal." Absurdity is seen as "normal" simply because it is so prevelant. Dancing in perfect step to an absurd but taken-for-granted-as-normal-tune, the herd reacts harshly to genius "deviancy" to the dance.

    That's the post Gina and I were laughing about....or at least, it's the one I was laughing about.

    I vote for it staying...it's so nonsensical and weird that it doesn't help what his cause seems to be....the obvious dictatorship at work on Dog.community....I think most people will ignore it, if not we can fall off that bridge...

     P.S.  It has not escaped my notice - nor any of yours, I am sure - that the people complaining are the people who are guilty of this crap in the first place.  lostcoyote is another one who likes to delete his own red ink.
