Anonymous,

 

The word anonymous comes from Late Latin anonymus and Greek, anonymos, and it means without a name. What escapes most people’s attention, however, is that, when there is no word, to refer to who we are, as an individual, we are without language. Anonymous describes how we talk, when we engage in Disembodied Language (DL), because in DL – which is our usual way of talking – we don’t possess the language-skill, to be who we are. In DL, we, as speakers, do not listen to ourselves, while we speak, therefore, we can’t talk about our own experiences in a realistic, honest and effective manner. Only during Embodied Language (EL) can we show who we really are, as we use our language correctly, which means we listen to ourselves while we speak. In other words, in EL, what we say matters, because of how we say it.

 

While belonging to a group, we hide ourselves, we become anonymous. DL is everywhere, due to this tendency, which is rooted in our survival. Of course, anonymity – or rather our isolation – is enhanced by modern technology. On the one hand, we seek online anonymity, because we long to be in a protected environment for our so-called self-expression, but, on the other hand, we want to be able to vent our toxicity, without running the risk of getting in trouble.

 

Contrary to what most people are inclined to believe, we don’t seek anonymity consciously, but we habitually fall back into our conditioning history, in which we were taught, that listening to others and making others listen to us, is the only thing which really matters. Nobody ever told us, listening to ourselves is important. To the contrary, listening to ourselves, historically was everywhere, always, systematically punished, as it implies, that you are going against the group.

 

As long as you remain anonymous, you can create a false image of yourself, to impress others. Inevitably, those who seek anonymous online environments – to, supposedly, express themselves, to chat or to build relationships – are in for a big surprise, if they would finally actually meet with the anonymous person – who was, of course, hiding behind words – who they only had some written conversations with.

 

The reason some – probably nice people – feel socially awkward, anxious or self-conscious, in the real world and seek online environments, is because everywhere everyone engages in DL and they, unknowingly, want EL. Psychology has yet to begin to consider this irrefutable fact and the extent to which many of our ‘mental health problems’ derive from our everyday, insensitive, unnatural, inauthentic, self-defeating DL. Being anonymous makes people feel less vulnerable, but it exacerbates the problem we have never addressed: the difference between DL and EL.

 

The other side of being anonymous – online – is that it apparently facilitates a morbid need for people to feel unaccountable for their actions. As I have alluded to, previously, all the trolling and the cyberbullying are anti-social actions, which, due to anonymity, will go unpunished. However, unbeknownst to everyone, our usual, mechanical, unconscious way of talking, DL, creates sadistic people, who get a kick out of punishing others and masochistic people, who are sheepishly and slavishly doing what they are told. The oppressor and the oppressed together create and maintain each other’s anonymity, as neither one reveals who they are with their DL.

 

Only when you take time, to be by yourself and talk out loud with yourself and calmly listen to the sound of your own voice, will you no longer be anonymous. You hear a change in your voice when you shift from DL to EL. All of a sudden, you are out of your conditioning history of DL, and you feel free. Your whole being responds to this marvelous experience. You are able to say things with EL, which you couldn’t say with DL. You are truly you and saying your own name is pure extasy, as you are in touch with yourself.

 

In one way or another, we are all vulnerable, to be sucked-into online anonymity, because, as long as we keep having DL, we are contradicting ourselves, we struggle and are distracted from what is important to us, we are in conflict with ourselves, as we haven’t been able to verbally formulate our own clear sense of our identity. This only occurs, after our DL has been stopped, when we can continue with our EL and when we realize our Language Enlightenment (LE).

 

The anonymous online community in essence is no different from any other community, in that every community, culture, society is built on DL, in which speakers dominate the listeners. This process also occurs with the speaker as his or her own listener. You could say, that in DL, the 'listener' remains anonymous, as the 'speaker' is always in charge. When you begin to listen to yourself while you speak, you realize you don’t even recognize yourself, as if you speak with a total stranger. This is because you never let the so-called 'listener-in-you' speak. In your DL, the 'speaker' never seems to stop speaking, because the so-called 'listener-in-you' never tells him or her to shut up. 


There is no such thing as an inner speaker or an inner listener, but it will be effective, for someone, who has never spoken with him or herself, to admit that a so-called part of you never gets the attention because another part of you always dominates. In EL, you will give that part attention, because you will notice that it asks your attention and when you hear that part speak, you will nourish yourself and you will no longer feel divided or anonymous.

Coming Back?

 

As long as you are alive, you still have a chance to come back to your senses. To anyone, who knows the big difference between their own Disembodied Language (DL) and Embodied Language (EL), there is clarity about the fact, that there is no coming back to who we really are with our crazy DL. In other words, our DL has to stop, before we can have EL again, only then we are back in touch with ourselves. Each time we return again to DL – which is inevitable, due to our long conditioning history – we disconnect from ourselves. However, we need to lose ourselves with our DL, to be able to find ourselves back again with our EL. By becoming conscious about our DL and our EL, we get better at stopping our DL and continuing with our EL. It is such a blessing to return to our EL.

 

Once you become capable of continuing with your EL, there is no way of ever coming back to your old sense of who you believed yourself to be with DL. Your ongoing EL will change you in ways, which you couldn’t imagine, precisely because EL has nothing to do with any fantasy. In DL, you get caught up in fantasy, but with EL, you emerge as a new person from your history of conditioning with DL. As you carry on with EL, you realize who you are and have always been – but who you have abandoned with your DL – and your acceptance, truth and wellbeing signify your Language Enlightenment (LE).

 

Coming back is also a central theme for anyone recovering from a so-called mental health crisis, from drugs or alcohol addiction, from serving in the army, being in battle or from returning after incarceration. In each of these cases, adjusting to a sense of normalcy, is part of this process of coming back. It is impossible with our usual DL, to communicate, acknowledge and understand the intensified emotions, which are bound to occur, due to this coming back. Whatever little normalcy was there, in the first place, we have left it, due to our DL and we very badly need to have EL, to carry on with our lives healthily, productively and happily.

 

Many people, over the years, have found out about the difference between DL and EL, and yet, only one person, came back, not only just once, but again and again. You can hear, in the You Tube videos of my dear Dutch friend AnnaMieke – her channel is called Luisterend Spreken and is in Dutch – how she talks with herself, every time, she is again triggered by her history of DL. Each time, she is coming back to her EL, her EL is more glorious and luminous.  

 

In DL, only a few people do all the talking and the rest is reduced to listener or readers, who are merely watching the political entertainment spectacle. These speakers won the competition for attention and shape the so-called narrative. This is the world we live in, which is created and maintained by DL. Only a hand-full of powerful individuals still decide for millions of people how everything is going to be. Obviously, there are terrible, inevitable, negative consequences to this backward, forced, phony arrangement. 


The outcomes of our usual way of talking, DL, which is aggressive, insensitive and automatic in nature, are always coming back to bite us. No matter how many armies can protect and promote these powerful elite, who are never challenged by anyone, they can’t escape the consequences of their own involvement in DL. They suffer the bad results of their DL even more, as they know, their power didn’t make them any happier.

 

In closing, let’s talk about death. Nobody is coming back. Due to DL, we fear and deny our mortality and we endlessly create religious fantasy stories, which, in turn, distract us from ourselves, from our EL and from each other. We imagine, we can talk with our so-called higher power, instead of with ourselves or with each other. Why does the ridiculous question about a supposed life after death keep coming back?

 

We have to make up all kind of stories, because we with DL, we cannot go beyond language. All our problems are problems of communication. We keep coming back, to the irrefutable fact, that we are hopelessly unscientific or biased about our behaviors and relationships. Once we discover the great difference between DL and EL, we are coming back to the language, which creates and maintains all our other behaviors.

Moral Clarity?

 

Where the hell is the moral clarity, in the communist-left-wing-Biden-government, which brands anyone, who doesn’t agree with them, as a threat to national security or democracy, who scream fascism, racism, white privilege, etc., but, who, cowardly, don’t say anything, to strongly condemn the virulent antisemitic, anti-Israel, anti-American storm, that is going on at university campuses around the country? All of this, because Democrats pander to those – in the United States – who are in favor of Hamas!

 

Our usual way of talking, which, unbeknownst to everyone, is Disembodied Language (DL), is a struggle for attention, in which power, that is, the ends, always, supposedly, justify the means. No matter what moral high ground we claim to have, our morals, our ideas about what is right and wrong, are all based on our unconscious participation in and condonement of DL. Sadly, we don’t know anything about the difference between our DL and Embodied Language (EL).

 

If we knew about the difference between DL and EL, we would realize, once and for all, a meaningful notion about right and wrong can only emerge from the correct way of using our language. DL – in which we are not in touch with ourselves and treat our language, as if it involuntarily happens to us – is, simply stated, an incorrect way of using our language. Therefore, listening to the sound of our voice, as we speak and engaging in EL, or not listening to ourselves, while we speak and engaging, without realizing it, in DL, signifies the real difference between right and wrong.

 

Moral clarity is said to be foremostly about the facts. However, the facts, which we are capable of considering with our insensitive, automatic, tense and forceful DL are, of course, completely different from those, we only become aware of in our intelligent, natural, relaxed, conscious EL. I have tried to address this ever since I began to study psychology, but nobody in academia has been willing to explore the DL/LE distinction.

 

During our EL, we all go through the same kind of exploration. Not only do we encounter the same facts, but we also draw the same conclusions. This means, our morality is not determined by someone else, but by our own experience. In DL morality is determined for us by others, by the group, society or culture, but in EL, our morality emerges from our own individuality, from our freedom to be and express who we truly are.

 

Since we always, in DL, give preference to group behavior over individual behavior, we can’t be moral about what is good for ourselves. Surely, if we can’t even decide what is right or wrong for ourselves, how can we determine what is right or wrong for others? The fact is, our DL, inevitably causes endless moral dilemmas, conflicts between what is expected from us by the group and what we, as individuals, would like to do. Freud’s reality-and pleasure-principle map onto what is supposedly moral or immoral.  

 

Someone argued the presumably meaningful words: but fear cannot be a substitute for moral clarity. As long as we are, unknowingly, engaged in DL, fear and moral clarity are the same. Look at what is happening today. If you disagree with the absurd-communist-woke-left-narrative, you are punished, demonized and cancelled. Surely, moral clarity and fear are as mutually exclusive, as DL and EL. Left-wing politics is the absence of moral clarity and the inability for individuals to say to themselves and to hear themselves what is right and wrong. Right-wing politics, however, still stands for freedom of speech, in which we are allowed to have opposing opinions, in which we freely determine what is right for ourselves.

 

Punitive, zealous, superstitious people – who are more often found on the right than on the left – always told those, who don’t believe what they believe, that they lack the moral clarity to judge, but someone like me, who knows about the enormous difference between DL and EL, only decides for himself or herself and insists, everyone will have to decide for themselves. I have lived like this since my early twenties, and I am now sixty-five and I feel very satisfied about that.      

Big Deal,

 

The paradox with Embodied Language (EL) is, it really is a big deal, but the moment you make a big deal about it – as I certainly have – it is no longer EL, but Disembodied Language (DL).  

 

With DL, we make a big deal about so many things, which are totally unimportant, once we can have EL. Ironically, my name is Maximus, which means: the biggest. Perhaps, this is why I was for so long inclined to make a big deal about EL, although, it never made any sense.

 

Nobody can make a big deal about EL, even when it makes them realize their Language Enlightenment (LE), which it will. People usually view me as someone, who makes a big deal out of nothing. Storm in a cup of tea, is what we used to say, in The Netherlands, the country where I grew up.

 

Everyone can listen to the sound, which they make, while they speak, however, the big deal is, nobody does this. We either want others to listen to us or we try to listen to others, but we don’t listen to ourselves. We make it seem as if this is normal, but it is a big deal that nobody is listening to themselves, because DL creates and maintains all our problems. Our in violence and chaos escalating problems, are a big deal, which we can longer deny. However, your problems have endlessly distracted from paying attention to the DL/EL distinction. Unless that becomes a big deal to you, they get bigger and bigger. So, minimizing the importance of how you use your language, is a big deal, as it sets the stage for all your other behaviors. Surely, all behavior that is associated with DL, turns out to be problematic.

 

We don’t want to rock the boat, we don’t want to make a big deal about anything, as we fear social ostracization. We make such a big deal about being accepted, being recognized, fitting in or being understood, because we fear being alone. With ongoing EL, we stop being fearful. Interestingly, just because we realize, that EL, truly is a big deal, it is no longer a big deal to us.  

 

When we are able to have EL, we acknowledge, that everyone, unconsciously, always makes a big fricking deal about their dumb, demanding, energy-draining DL, because it is impossible to make a big deal about our delightful, lively EL.

 

We have all heard the question: what is the big deal? The big deal is always DL. Nothing is going to be a big deal anymore, when we are going to have EL. You can’t believe, it is possible, to not make a big deal about anything, because you were conditioned to have DL. So, you have to make a big deal about your DL, because it isn’t going to stop, unless you pay attention to it.

 

Although it seems that way, it is never a person, who is making a big deal about something, but how we use our language. Hilariously, we don’t want to make a big deal about the elephant in the room: how we communicate with each other. We rather go to war and kill each other, than to pay close attention to how we actually interact. Our own DL isn’t anything we like to bring our attention to, as it is nothing but negativity.

 

Once you have explored the difference between DL and EL, you can no longer turn away from it, as it determines everything. The fact that we all unknowingly engage in DL, indicates we haven’t even begun to explore the immense difference between our DL and EL. Simply stated, our lives are either based on our participation in DL or in EL. In the former, we live – although we pretend otherwise – unhappy lives, but in the latter, we are happy, as DL is no longer a big deal to us.

Naturally,

 

Naturally, you feel annoyed with me, because I expose your unhappy, pretentious, unnatural Disembodied Language (DL), while I, without you, continue with my effortless, meaningful, satisfying Embodied Language (EL). Naturally, you feel envious, as you would like to make it seem, as if you are better or smarter than me, but, with me, there is no way to keep up this lie.

 

You can’t naturally, meaning, habitually, have DL around me, that is why you will, unconsciously, do whatever you can to avoid me. You can’t naturally fly either, that is why we make airplanes. Likewise, you make up verbal constructs, metaphorical airplanes, which make it seem as if you are free, but freedom isn’t a matter manipulative, pacifying, poetic, political, dogmatic, spiritual, Sadsatguru-DeepShitChopra-BullshitheartTole-PatheticBiden-SickDalaiLama-CowardDrPhil-DumbWhoopiGoldberg-language.

 

Naturally, the truth about ongoing EL, is neither made possible by Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism or Judaism. As a matter of fact, they have all perpetuated DL, although, chances we will be having some EL, are much bigger in Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism and Hinduism than in Islam. Similarly, right-wing politics is more conducive to EL, than left-wing politics. I didn’t decide this, this is just my observation. Furthermore, if we were to pay attention to science, naturally, we would accept it is true, we don't listen to ourselves, while we engage in DL and explore why this is so. EL is, above all, a scientific account of how we talk.   

 

We would naturally not be interested in religion or politics, if we knew how to have EL. Surely, to have EL, we would first need to acknowledge, understand and stop our DL. Naturally, stopping our DL, would be our priority, instead of all the nonsense which distracts our attention from DL. Naturally, once we have stopped our DL and are able to have EL, we fully recognize and remind each other, that everything, which prevented us from paying attention, to the great importance of the DL/EL distinction, was a waste of our time.  

 

When you, finally, take your first steps, in your EL, you will realize, naturally, why it becomes more and more interesting and beneficial for you, to do whatever it takes, to go on with it. Moreover, with EL, human destiny isn’t set in stone, because history is only repeated because of your DL. Naturally, everyone’s participation in DL always results in war, conflict, chaos and more problems. Naturally, if someone is holding a gun to our head, we feel threatened and do whatever it takes to survive. In DL, our usual way of talking, we are constantly afraid, and this is why what is actually unnatural seems natural and why we perceive an unsafe environment as safe, while we consider a safe environment as unsafe. This is the devastating, self-defeating, learned-helplessness-consequence of our long, tragic conditioning history with DL. 

 

Naturally, we still praise and have, unknowingly, always have praised the wrong kind of leaders. No leaders have ever stimulated us, to have EL instead DL. Naturally, such leaders don’t exist, because in EL there are no leaders, as everyone is responsible for him or herself. Naturally, this isn’t an idealistic idea, but reality, that can only be properly addressed with ongoing EL.

 

You have – with your dull, mechanical, forceful, DL – no idea, how your EL will naturally bring an end to all our problems. It is because with your EL, you will be able to view your problems in a new light. You can hear in your own voice a different sound, which liberates you instantly from your DL. You never believed this was possible. Naturally, it was always your DL, which was bothering you.

 

The word ‘naturally’ has been endlessly abused by your rigid, blunt, arrogant DL. Naturally, you have always justified your DL, and this is why it never stopped. Naturally, your DL will only stop when you take responsibility for it and become aware about how it has affected you. Naturally, if you speak, day in, day out, without listening to yourself, you are not in touch with yourself.

 

Naturally, if you read this text out loud, so you can hear you own voice, this text makes much more sense to you. To talk naturally, is to tune into the sound of your wellbeing and to express what you are able to say with the sound of your silence, your peacefulness or your truth. Once you continue with your EL, you will naturally stumble upon your own Language Enlightenment (LE).

Mental Illness?

 

There is no such a thing as mental illness. Due to our unintelligent, mechanical, unconscious, unaddressed, involuntary, careless involvement in Disembodied Language (DL), we speak about certain behaviors as mental illness, addiction or criminal, but these categories aren’t helpful, as we are simply referring to negative behaviors, which need to be reduced or, ideally, stopped.

 

It is common, in communistic countries, such as China or Russia, to consider anyone mentally ill, who opposes the propaganda of the oppressive regime. Although – because we all unknowingly engage in DL – it may not be so obvious, a very similar thing is happening in Western psychiatry or psychology, where everyone still believes in the myth of a chemical imbalance in the brain, which can be remediated with medications. The pharmaceutical lobby is as authoritarian as any autocratic government and only someone, who has ongoing Embodied Language (EL), knows what an insidious crime is being committed.

 

The term Anti-Psychiatry (AP) is more relevant than ever, because, nobody has been willing to acknowledge the difference between DL and EL and, consequently, everything we claim to know about human behavior is grounded in our inability to stop our own stupid, insensitive DL. Only EL can be in favor of AP, as it debunks the false notion, that there is language inside of us (please, also read my other writings or listen to my two You Tube channels, Maximus Peperkamp or maximuspeperkamp-hw8sw).

 

The big problem with the construct of mental illness, isn’t necessarily, that it is falsely based on a medical model or on a disease model, but that there exists no such a process as what we call our mind or thoughts. What we consider to be mental, is as much a fantasy, as psychosis or dreams, but it is only once we are able to have EL instead of DL, that we can acknowledge this.

 

If we are ever going to fully explore and understand the great difference between DL and EL, this is not going to come about, due to another, idiotic, convoluted, contentious debate, about whether to fix or completely overthrow the way in which we talk about and then, supposedly, treat, this fabricated, so-called mental illness. To be able to have EL, we must end DL and all the lies we were told with it. Psychologists, psychiatrists or therapists, will be shocked once they have EL.

 

I have a Master of Arts and a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology and almost achieved my PhD. I withdrew, because I felt betrayed by Palo Alto University, who, initially, promised, I would be able to choose my own research topic for my dissertation, but forced me, to follow along the boring research of some arrogant supervisor. I should have achieved my Ph.D. for my discovery of the DL/EL distinction, but nobody there had the integrity or the courage, to let me reveal, what is going to be the future of psychology. EL is the future, but not DL, which is accepted as normal, because people are ignorant about EL.

 

From my perspective – with ongoing EL – I want to make it unequivocally clear, that it is a crime, psychiatrists push medications on people, who have lived through challenging circumstances. Everything looks different with EL and there is potential for recovery, once our DL is stopped by us and not by someone else. Once we know the difference between our DL and EL, we want to stop our DL and go on with EL. I have studied psychology for many years. I have worked in this dysfunctional, useless, undermining and pretentious field of mental health for many years, as 1) a mental health worker, 2) crisis counselor, 3) group-home worker, 4) therapist. I have taught psychology classes, as an instructor at Butte College for many years. Anyone who reads this, should know psychology or psychiatry is a hoax.

 

Nobody recovers. Nobody gets back on their feet. People are indoctrinated and medicated, while society is wasting millions of dollars for programs, which absolutely do not work, and nobody is really checking for results. Likewise, getting people of the street and giving them homes, is supporting dependent behavior, which makes people even more demanding, than they were before. I have seen problems only getting bigger and more complicated and I claim that this is all the result of our refusal to acknowledge the difference between DL and EL.

 

Anyone with any honesty, who witnessed how many troubled people go, in vain, through this sordid, mental-health-revolving-door – which, no matter how you put it, is good for business – must admit, that things are only getting worse. There is no reason to idealistically believe that anyone is going to get better. To the contrary, the mental health business keeps on expanding, to serve more and more people, while nobody addresses, the illusion of inner language.

 

I am no longer working in the field to which I dedicated my life. I am now retired, and I am so glad, I didn’t become just another psychologist. In this writing, I let readers know, mental illness is one of the many fabrications of DL. I say on my own authority, DL, our usual way of talking, is dissociative in nature. All our problems result from our habitual, unquestioned participation in DL. A society that brands people as mentally ill, is a society in decline. Likewise, a society, who accepts as normal – do you not see these gallons of cheap whisky, or vodka at the local supermarket? Only for alcoholics! – that people may get addicted to drugs and alcohol; steal or may commit all sorts of crimes, without any consequences; scream antisemitic hatred, on university campuses, in the name of freedom of speech; or live filthy lives, in tents, trash parks,  public spaces and shit and piss on the streets; such a society is doomed, as its citizens don’t want to accept, that they have let this happen.

 

Nobody can ever accuse me, that I have never been exposed to psychotic, manic, depressed, delusional or suicidal people. I have noticed, how each of the people, who I have met, have always positively responded to my EL. The proof of EL was always in the pudding and the reason I write this, is because nothing has ever made me doubt about the validity and necessity of EL. Moreover, it has always been the professionals themselves, who didn’t want to believe me and interact to verify the difference between their own DL and EL. Mental illness is as much a myth today, as it was when, in 1961, the psychiatrist Thomas Szazs stated, the irrefutable fact, there is no medical basis for so-called mental illness. Szasz supposedly alienated himself from his field, but I say, he was 100% correct. To this day, nobody in the field has the guts to say it, as it would still get them 'alienated'.   

 

In closing, EL is not some therapeutic technique or some tool in your toolbox. EL is only going to happen for those who learn how to have it. I am convinced, anyone, who can talk and listen can engage in EL. You have already done it, but not consciously, deliberately, skillfully and most importantly, continuously. Your problems don’t prevent you from talking out loud with yourself and listening to yourself while you speak. You don’t do this, when you engage in DL, but you only do this when you engage in EL. You know when this is the case, as you suddenly feel, your problems seem to melt, like snow in the sun.

 Oppressed,

 

In today’s divisive, political, separate universe, people, in Western-Democratic-Judeo-Christian societies are either classified as colonizers or colonized or as oppressor and oppressed. What nobody is paying attention to, however, is that there is a great difference between Embodied Language (EL) and Disembodied Language (DL) and that all politics – yes, all politics – is DL.

 

To be clear, in DL, speakers, who do not listen to themselves, actively, deliberately, coercively, yet unconsciously, dominate, manipulate or exploit the listener or the audience. In EL, on the other hand, speakers hear themselves, which means, they are their own listener. Consequently, EL speakers treat those who listen, like they treat themselves, that is, they are in touch with their audience. That connection is felt and continued,  because in EL, listeners can, at any given time, without any predetermined rule, become speakers and speakers can become listeners. In other words, in EL, communicators experience, for the first time, truly the freedom of speech.

 

Obviously, in DL, there is always an oppressor and someone else, who is feeling oppressed. And, the attention-demanding, intimidating, forceful DL-speaker, is always imposing him or herself on his or her audience. Therefore, the DL speaker – who is, supposedly, in charge of the so-called conversation, who determines what we talk about, who may say something, when and for how long – is the colonizer and those, who don’t have any power or ability to change the conversation, they are, of course, the colonized. However, regardless of whether one is colonizer or colonized, whether one is the oppressor or the oppressed, everyone is in support of DL. Nobody, who views themselves and each other with colored glasses of colonizer vs colonized or oppressor vs oppressed, will be able to have EL, in which these categories have lost their meaning. Only during EL there can be equality, but the frustrated people, who scream about equality, have yet to acknowledge this.

 

Only when we are going to have EL, instead of DL, with each other, will there be a permanent end to oppression, which was normalized due to our usual way of talking, in which everyone is fighting with each other, to get the attention. Since the beginning of time, different groups of human beings have engaged in DL – which was never properly addressed with EL – and, thus, we have, basically, verbally, always been at war with each other and, of course, with ourselves.

 

It is meaningless, deceitful and gas-lighting, to say – with DL – we stand unequivocally against hatred, on the basis of religion, ethnicity, race, national origin or other categories, as long as these so-called other categories don’t include the DL/EL distinction. Once we know about the immensely important difference between our DL and our EL, we are all on the same page, as we will all be against DL, but in favor of our EL.

 

The big unaddressed problem with Freedom of Speech, as mentioned in the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, is precisely this latitude for the expression of controversial and even offensive views. In EL, we never say anything offensive, hostile, uncomfortable or even controversial to each other. The reason this is so hard to believe, is because we have never had any deliberate, ongoing EL. The justification, that if we don’t put up with it (with DL), we would chill the freedom of thought or ideas, is, of course, actually a direct endorsement of DL.  

 

Any so-called intolerance of ideas, is always an indication of DL and our increasingly polarized societies, are the outcome of our unconscious participation in our, in violence escalating, DL. It is astonishing, that no scholars, no scientists, no freedom-loving individuals, have so far had the courage, to openly recognize the validity of the DL/EL distinction. And, this imaginary freedom of thought is of no importance, because we need to be able to say it, to hear it and to write it, to read it. Moreover, there is no inner language.

 

In DL, we can never say what we really want to say. In other words, in DL, we, unknowingly, oppress ourselves. Moreover, to escape from this horrible, miserable, embarrassing reality, we seek to oppress others, even if it is with victimhood. Also, in DL, there are many experiences to which we have no access, because our DL doesn’t allow us to get in touch with our true feelings. Our EL isn’t sentimental, idealistic or romantic, but it deals with what we truly feel. Due to our history of conditioning with DL, we have become dissociated from many of our own most intimate experiences. In effect, we have many no-go-zones. With DL, we have become our own worst enemies, as we keep ourselves endlessly pre-occupied with all sorts of distractive nonsense, so that we don’t feel what we feel, let alone say it to ourselves, and listen to it, as we would do during our ongoing EL.
