But what isn't noticing is that the tune he likes, isn't actually the tune that is on display. His mind is twisting and adding things to the tune, to force himself to like it. It is not physically possible for a healthy human brain to like a repeated 4/4 measure that repeats every few seconds, so his mind and twists and warps what he hears - in essence, he is not hearing the same thing we are, but a deluded and mentally modified version of it.
This also connects back to the woman and lies, MagsJ did not make a deliberate effort to lie about the music, but she is simply not being totally conscious of her own mind, hiding from inward knowledge of herself, and this is what is meant by how she lies.
For instance, when I was a teenager, I was molested by boys, said I didn't like it, complained that they would stop, yet I would get aroused and then fantasize about it later that night. I was lying to myself and lying to them, I was hidden separated from my own mind and true desires, I never made the connection that I actually liked it, I wasn't deliberately lying to them, when I said I didn't like it it was my honest reaction.
Do you have a penis, Trixie? Or rather, were you born with one? If so, then it is not natural for you to be aroused by other men molesting you. It does not matter what you feel. Feelings are a superficial aspect. What matters is the ground upon which your feelings are based. Considering that you were born a male, it is not natural for you to have such feelings. Masculine energy
forbids such feelings. The fact that you have such feelings is a sign that you have lost the connection to your masculine energy. It's no longer flowing through your body.
Pretension does not simply mean "absence of feelings". What it really means is "shallow feelings".
It's rather difficult to convince yourself that you like something merely by twisting your spontaneous feelings. What is easier is to simply lower your standards. And how does one lower one's standards? By forgetting. The less memory you have, the more superficial your judgment is.
We can only guess why Fixed and his friend with benefit Pezer enjoy steady four-to-the-floor. We must first take into account that they are druggies. When you are on drugs, everything is great. It must be the case, I believe, that drugs mess up with your memory. Everything looks more fresh when you take drugs.
Ecstasy is a popular choice, and ecstasy increases empathy, which is to say, it makes people more friendly. If we accept the premise that philosophy is friendship, it follows that E is a necessary part of becoming a great philosopher. But I am straying away . . .
I believe that most club-goers have very short attention spans. This is why they enjoy steady four-to-the-floor beat. By the time they hit the next beat, they already forgot the previous one, so every time it's a new beat for them. Moreover, because they forget almost instantly, they cannot stand anything slower than 140 BPM. That explains their tastes pretty well.
Now, MagsJ . . . what is there to say about her? It does not really matter whether she has feelings or not. The point is that her feelings are shallow, thus, not exactly real.
"Let's keep the debate about poor people in the US specifically. It's the land of opportunity. So everyone has an opportunity. That means everyone can get money. So some people who don't have it just aren't using thier opportunities, and then out of those who are using them, then most squander what they gain through poor choices, which keeps them poor. It's no one else's fault. The end."
