I Love Cognitive Distortions · Am Excluded from Objectivity
⁘ “Our precious reality bubbles. Objectivity weaponized to deconstruct the reality bubbles of others. We ourselves are excluded from the deconstruction of illusions. It's like these cognitive distortions are your allies and your best friends. Wherever you go, they must always come along and show you the way. Objective reality is your enemy.”
Our precious reality bubbles.
Objectivity is weaponized to deconstruct
the reality bubbles of others in our favor.
It's a rare occasion indeed that
we take a good look at ourselves.
In objective terms, as far as we can.
Thoroughly, categorically evaluating our premises,
deconstructing our illusions.
But we only ever do that as
a matter of last measure, damage control.
When it all begins to crumble down,
we salvage what we can.
When forced to adapt.
Pressures of reality.
Then we adapt, but only as far as we must.
The rest of our illusions, our distortions,
our filterings, they are so precious, they define us.
It's like these cognitive distortions
are your allies and your best friends.
Wherever you go, they must always
come along and show you the way.
Objective reality is your enemy.
Subjective reality bubbles
are your home and nest.
