I have been having trouble with this lately but not sure if it's real theory of mind problem so I thought I'd ask he what better place. I realize that there are other people than me and in theory they have their own thoughts I somewhat accept this. My problem comes with the fact that there are so many people over 6 billion I have a very hard time with why don't they think like I think. It is so elusive to so many others how can there minds be so different. How can there be so many different thoughts how does all this work?All this frustrates me lately.
you are Mr Spock and they are humans.
somebody posted at a truck driver forum if Mr Spock ever encountered trucker logic he would commit suicide
with NT's everything is on a personal emotional level, pick a topic and their emotional thinking will interfer with their judgement and once they get something in their head, it's a done deal trying to tell them their thinking is wrong because they get defensive like it's a personal attack against them and will go into the attack mode right back.
you know i have a thing about government spending and schools, most people married to a school teacher would look at any comment as a personal attack against their wife, when it is nothing personal to complain about the SYSTEM.
wall street journal has a forum and auto's has been a regular topic for over a year now. Nobody discusses the financial aspect of the situation outside of the personal part as they attact overpaid management and or over paid workers. Make a post about factory utilization and return on investment and it's just ignored because there is no person involved in bean counting.
spent $10 billion on a plant & design work and build 1 million cars over 10 years an it's $10,000 per car before the cost of materials & labor is factored in.
build 3 million in 10 years and the start up investment is deluted to $3,333 per car
People don't want to hear their rantings about the UAW members being overpaid is not really the main problem the Big 3 are facing or they could work for free and the companies still go broke if they don't make efficant use of their plants by running them damn near 24/7 to recoop the investment in the plant & design work or do they want to hear the Jap's cherry picked just high volume models to assemble here because they are totally convinced it's those overpaid UNION PEOPLE that are the problem.
It's just burns peoples asses those factory workers make so much money and they can't get past it and yet will tear somebody a new ass if they mention the wages paid to cops,fireman or teachers because they have a soft spot in their hearts for those people so don't dare attack the SYSTEM that has handed them rediculous contracts.
People don't want to hear they have been getting snookered for years by municiple labor contracts so between the warm & fuzzy shit they have for the muni workers and the fact trying to tell them they are idiots getting totally screwed by the labor contracts which they take as a personal attack on their so called intelligence there is no talking about the subject in any sort of rational, logical way. It's easy to drive them nuts, just point out gym teachers make as much as physics teachers and they will go into the attack mode against the person trying to make them look like the idiots they are for allowing it to happen.
I saw the same shit in trucking, attack the screwed up industry and drivers took it as a personal attack against them. I liked driving a truck, I hated the industry. Most truck drivers are ok people, the trucking industry sucks. There was really no discussing things with people who took negitive comments about trucking as personal attacks against them.
There is a you-tube video where a guy questions Obama supporters about things, they sucked down all the personal attacks going on in the campaign and little about the real issues in the country. Everyone could answer who had a pregnant teenage daughter without blinking and on other things that had even more coverage they drew a blank if it was an issue and not something personal about somebody.
NT's senses are in tune to gossip, they live for it and other shit they just tune out. They suck up personal shit while it's likely AS people tune it out.
