Deep pleasures lurk within sadism and the unleashing of sexual repression. We are not embarrassed when we talk about cognitive biases that push us to overcome our good natures but we dare not admit the pleasures to be found in inflicting pain, suffering, and humiliation on others. #ThinkingAboutThinking
We take pride in struggle to overcome the prejudices we inherit from our culture but we cannot speak of the adrenaline surges of running with a wild crowd, the joy of drowning out the chants of our enemies with our own blood curdling cries, and the pleasure to be found in declaring ourselves dominant over the body of ‘the other’. #Resist by admitting the truth.
