Demolocke's Caveat

Caveat: Please make note that this article/post is my personal analysis of the subject and the information used was chosen or picked by me. It is not an analysis piece because it lacks complete and comprehensive research, it was not adequately and completely investigated and it is not balanced, i.e., it is my personal view without the views of others including subject experts, etc. Look at this as “Infotainment rather then expert research.” This is an opinion/editorial article/post meant to persuade the reader to think, decide and accept or reject my premise. It is an attempt to cause change or reinforce attitudes, beliefs and values as they apply in life. It is merely a commentary on the subject in the particular article presented.


This article is mine and mine alone. I the author of this article assure you, the reader, that any of the opinions expressed here are my own and are a result of the way in which my meandering mind interprets a particular situation and/or concept. The views expressed here are solely those of the author in his private capacity and do not in any way represent the views of other professionals or authors of source materials. It should be quite obvious that the sources I used herein have not approved, endorsed, embraced, friended, liked, tweeted or authorized this article. (Everything I think and write is true, within the limits of my knowledge and understanding. Oh, and just because I wrote it and just because it sounds reasonable and just because it makes sense, does not mean it is true.)


Finally, it is incumbent that the reader take any information they feel is relevant and useful and perform an in-depth analysis of it to work out its value to the reader. It is also stressed that the reader also present the information to qualified professionals/experts so that his or her expertise and experience can also analyze the information to validate and then synthesize said information into their ideas, theories or facts/information either as is or as synthesized into something new and creative.


Oh, it is pronounced "Dem-Locke."

OPINION: When They Don’t Like You …

Demolocke’s Agenda Article/Post Caveat (Read First Please: Click the Link)

When they don’t like you, when they fear you and when they get all emotionally tied up with that then the microscope comes out and the detailed scrutiny is activated where any slight, often perceived emotionally ignoring the logic and facts, they leap on it as if their lives depended on it and then the old lizard brain adrenal stress chemicals kick in further blocking out our human logical thinking processes. Then all hell breaks loose and a combination of cognizant dissonance and confirmation bias grab hold and the attacks and fear and anger just keep right on rollin along like the old monkey dance seen in the movie clip, Jumanji. 

We are all suffering from that stage right now because we see things as the dark and unknown. We know as humans that facing the dark, those things lurking in the dark places we humans fear to go, and the unknown of it the flight, fright and fear process grabs hold in tandem with the adrenal chemicals and off we go into the WILD, CHAOTIC (see, I can use a form of Chaos to make my point too) and dangerous actions seen around lately. Trust me, we won’t get off that wagon until it or the other are upturned and dumped down a chasm. 

Is it truly dark? Not from where I sit. Are people over emotionalizing things? You betcha, and that is kind of normal but what is missing is the understanding of what that really means, accepting it and then taking appropriate actions - kind of like the old adage of counting to ten before you speak or considering before you speak if it is, “necessary,” and/or “kind” and/or “is it true?” - to stop ourselves from making that leap into the black depth of a chasm of emotional immaturity thereby leading to actions, deeds and words inappropriate to the situation of the moment. 

Now, the only reason this is happening is because the entity involved is an unknown, i.e., we all are well aware and have become comfortable with the status quo and since that has never killed us we are averse to changing from that model. So, when an entity like we have today begins doing things unexpected and perceived under these obstacles we freak out, panic, become scared to the ninth degree and the take actions according to not what is relevant and true but as to how we feel and since we feel the panic, anger and fear we go right into survival mode we are all gonna die emotional state of mind and then we act in very unusual, inappropriate and often dangerous ways. 

Now, here is where I am really going to piss off that side, “Grow up, get a grip and let things progress with a diligent awareness and keen observation as the process goes forward so, IF, things go awry then we can take appropriate actions with minimal emotional attachment and make relevant, efficient and valid decisions on how to proceed.” 

In short: People who don’t like you tend to do three things: First, they set you apart from themselves; second, the tend to stigmatize you; and third, they tend to other you!
