How differently do OP's see the world?

[Muxel]

I was reminded of "The Dress" meme, and it seemed curious to me that as many people said the dress was white/gold as there were those who said it was blue/black.

When I saw the photo of the dress, it was clearly blue/black though the lighting may have distorted the shade of color slightly.

It puzzled me that enough people were insisting it was white/gold, to cause it to become a meme.

It seemed to show that we live in a shared reality, and use the same language, but do we really mean the same things? When one says "blue" does the other really perceive "blue"? When one says "happy" does the other know the same? "Sadness", "love", "anger", "pain"...

I thought of OP's because the C's gave it a 50/50 distribution in the human population. The dividing line in humanity between OP's and those with the potential to "house" something that is not of this world. And even if the dress meme had a more innocuous explanation to it (say, random genetic differences in retinal structure), it does not rule out any similarity to the OP phenomenon. Because, isn't the gamble between souled/unsouled a matter of natural genetic recombination as well?

A: Do you ever hurt for another?

Q: (V) I think they are talking about empathy. These soulless humans simply don't care what happens to another person. If another person is in pain or misery, they don't know how to care.

A: The only pain they experience is "withdrawal" of "food" or comfort, or what they want. They are also masters of twisting perception of others so as to seem to be empathetic. But, in general, such actions are simply to retain control.

In any case, I do expect the answer would be: "Very."

They cannot sincerely care for others. They can only care in the way about how others make them feel good about themselves. (enrich their Ego) Their 'love' is conditional instead of unconditional. It's all of a self-serving nature. But that also accounts for many who carry soul potential.

I think it's self-defeating to be angry at OP's, because for all intent and purposes they are also here to learn, but at there own space and level.

Problem is that there are so many of them and those who cannot sincerely care for others are unfit to be in a position of power. Sadly I have no doubt that many are, just like their failed versions. (Psychopaths)

But if I understood it correctly OP's can learn by emulating souled beings. So it's also by a lack of souled individuals that OP's can become stuck. They are dependent on souled individuals for their evolution, so it's the responsibility of souled individuals to guide them.

If those who carry soul potential can dominate the teaching of the world than they can give OP's an ideal to strife towards, be a force of good. And than they will race behind you.


Don't forget that OP's can also learn souled individuals many lessons in return, that is how to learn to care and to love unconditional. It's easy to become frustrated and angry at others who don't get it. It's difficult to accept everyone at there own level and adjust ourselves accordingly to guide them. (strategic enclosure / external consideration) That is what we must learn if we truly intent to care for others.

They will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will learn and join you. OSIT.

Actually I disagree. They care, but mechanically and often this means intellectually but not emotionally. There are (I think) two forms of empathy. Those that feel what others feel, and those that can put themselves mechanically and intellectually in another person's place (in their shoes). It's still empathy, just a different type. The difference is functional and in ability, or organic, rather than negative or positive, as such. Also, it means that the 'feelers' will get more insight than the 'mechanicalers' Psychopaths, of course don't have empathy in either form and probably wouldn't understand why it was required in the first place.

Yep, its also self defeating to be angry at cats, dogs or fish. And snails, horses, cattle, gerbils and rats. I bet many of us include some family members too! Yep, pretty much pointless. They are what they are. It finally dawned on me that Gerald Durrell may have been saying when he wrote that book "My family and other animals".

Is this funny or sad? I have no idea. For many of us it is potentially really sad.

It's would certainly be easier for them in an STO world, rather than an STS world. In an STO world souled individuals would do this, in an STS world, well you see how it is. It's hierarchical and STS individuals seek to dominate in a hierachy.
