| NTs seem to be obsessed with everything that is: forced, uncomfortable, artificial, superficial, faked and hypocritical and as one might suspect, the same applies to the way they touch you. I would not mind anyone touching me if they actually had a sense of doing it in a way that is pleasant and gen... |

| The usual stuff. Not being able to handle white lies and small talk and their ret*d noise and other displeasing and harmful stimuli. Having actual, not superficial interests and actually pursuing them and especially succeeding in something because of that. Having and expressing genuine emotions and ... |

| But you are not ONLY interested in beer, you do notice, appreciate and pursue things that go beyond the most basic and shallow. Beer is just one example here, you can substitute that for anything meaning a very cliche "normal" life devoid of any interest in science, art etc. and full of ve... |

| Why people always seem to defend harmful food additives and other technologies that work against them is beyond me. Perhaps some kind of Stockholm syndrome, but seriously - why put yourself on the side of your own oppressor? Not that long time ago if something was harmful it was simply retracted and... |

| Deprive any "normal" person of sleep for an extended period of time. They might score high on the autistic tests all of a sudden - withdrawal, communication difficulty, depression etc. Now frustrate a normal person beyond some limit. They will become violent or at the very least socially a... |

| I do not propose to "ignore the decades of clinical research" but sometimes if evidence is no longer consistent with theories developed over the decades, the theories get changed, at least this is what happens in normal science unless it is not science but some kind of perverted dogma. I a... |

Actually I did think about some kind of sunglasses but ones that would only react to police strobes and reduce the level down below... |

| Your post pretty much summarizes why it is not possible to "socialize" with "normal" people. They are mostly into trivial, mundane, automatic interaction and also distracted by the most trivial stimuli. Or forcing you to interact on their level just to keep control and dominate a... |

| In a word: NO. A big no for that. Being "normal" means having no real interests other than beer and such and no deep emotions other than cliche interactions and "scripted" conversation. And no super powers. One of the regrets of the dying is supposedly not having the courage to l... |

I suppose it goes beyond marketing. The current formula for turning our Utopia Planitia into a Dystopia Planitia seems to be:
+shallow -quiet -solitary -thinking
And yes, book burning is so passe, you just:
+protection -permission
Like kindergarden but with bigger "kids". |
