Re: Mind's Eye Re: Good and bad

The Big Picture via distorting filters onto Big Data?

I do not think that we lie to our self so much as that we only see/hear what we want to see/hear. Also we tend to say what we think the other persons wants to hear or say things to hurt other people.

I am more interested in why we lie to ourselves, suppress reality and

survival, I suppose, but much of our potential is engineered by family
and culture in order to achieve some sort of control and order. Even
rebels are often little more than a reaction. Pretense and etiquette
are often the same thing.//I must have "lost" my thought re "big
data"/"Big Daddy? as an organizer of human knowledge versus the
present scatterings and specialties.// Yes- I agree most have a gut
reaction- but so do other life forms- it's a survival mechanism. But
it can be distorted.
