I love all of you, but I only want to hear your happy thoughts and see cute pictures or jokes. I won't respond to any of your serious or controversial thoughts except maybe to give you good wishes. That is because I want to be nice and agreeable to everyone. I am supposed to. I only want to say and hear happy, loving, feels good things. And I really want to avoid cognitive dissonance (CD) because it makes me uncomfortable with my own thoughts and beliefs and could lead to arguments and someone getting their feelings hurt.

I like you for who you are, but don't really give a crap who you are or what you think or care about. My world is created in my own mind and reality has nothing to do with it. Yours too. If we all just have good thoughts we can all be happy. No one knows what is best for society; morality is totally relative and subjective, and there is nothing one person can do to change things, so why worry about it? Don't even bother trying to make me think that my thoughts matter and could make a difference. I would rather just be a happy slave to the smart ruling class. /sarcasm
