Why So Many Good People Comply With Evil And Become Complicit

I wrote this on Facebook recently, and I think it is related to this thread!

• Living in brutal self-honesty does not mean you think you are "flawless", but at least you are willing to learn & improve yourself no matter what!

As someone who is Dutch (born & raised) most who are real people from The Netherlands are KNOWN to be unfiltered, coming across "arrogant" and-or "rude", blunt, super frank, outspoken, straightforward, highly pragmatic but NOT claiming to be "all knowing", there is always room for improvement! ... If you are surrounded by people who do the same, you can sense if someone has "evil intent" or allows everybody to have their own personal growth dealing with controversial issues ... It is all "trial & error" learning from mistakes and move on!

When you get a genuine, honest feedback that is 100% truthful from the perspective of someone, it does not mean that person is not willing to learn new insights it may have overlooked. If you are surrounded by people NOT giving truthful "feedback" >>> How on earth should you improve yourself if they think you can not handle the truth?

There are 100s of very good YT videos explaining WHY the Dutch are like that and how it is often seen as very liberating for many foreigners living for a couple of months here. They see the practical benefits of being "brutally honest" and actually mean what you say .... not "playing nice" all the time ... If a Dutch person is nice it is mostly 100% genuine without "hidden agendas" without being conditional and so many outside The Netherlands do not get that (sadly enough!).

• There is so much more I can say about the psychology behind all this, but I leave that for a different time.

What I notice with many (not all) people living in the USA but much more with people living in UK that their 3 most used common phrases I personally will NEVER use or have to use ever!

• 01. "To be frank ..." (then saying something that is more truthful).
• 02. "To be honest ..." (then saying something that is more honest).
• 03. "To be fair ..." (then saying something that is more balanced & fair).

Every time when I hear someone using 01. and or 02. and or 03. I always say: "WHAT (THE F) IS WRONG BEING ALWAYS FRANK, HONEST & FAIR?"

The world would be really better place if people STOP lying to themselves and to others "to fit in" and call it being "social".

No wonder the world is a big mess, there are also "social" types in The Netherlands "acting nice & empathic" but they can easily change in collectivist tyrants imposing stuff and "demanding" stuff and become "authoritarians" claiming to be "inclusive" and "tolerant" but are obviously NOT ... They lie to or deceive themselves, beLIEving they "are" what they claim ... This self-deception rhetoric often happens in a "hive mind" aka "group think", collectivist setting, not really take any responsibility of their own quality of thinking (acting accordingly). They rather hide behind the mainstream pushed narratives (whatever that is) and we have seen that happening in 2020 onward with countless examples!

I personally met & experienced all kinds of non-Dutch people who totally get it what I am saying ... and they have severe issues to practice above insights & wisdom in their own country because they are in a small minority ... Thus, have less experience how to live your life to the fullest! ... If you are surrounded by people lying to themselves, it can be highly depressing dealing with that day in day out ... Soon I will make a "Part 2" of this post giving practical tips how to make things better and more empowering for all people who get it!

• Just do a YouTube search "Dutch Directness" see: youtube.com/results?search_query=dutch+directness (100s of different non-Dutch people explaining their experiences in The Netherlands 🇳🇱 living here for months!).

John, thank you for your heartfelt pleading for truthfulness.

Allow me, who am a Dutch speaker just like you are, but admittedly with a slightly different admixture of 'cultural influences” from you — as we all are or should be, singular and unique as we are – give the following consideration a thought: what is the "Dutch“ frankness (bluntness?) you are praising worth when it is associated with the group think you are condemning? Coming from this “slightly different admixture” and having worked, lived and loved in the Netherlands, I tend to have a sharpened sense for the unholy "alliance” between group think and frankness early on and it reminds me of quite unpleasant ideological adventures in the past which the Netherlands easily glided off into.

Belgians are appreciated for their "sense of diplomacy” (as against frankness) and "joie de vivre”.. Well, also in Belgium, there is a disappointing dominance of "group" think". What is all the diplomatic legerdemain worth when it associates itself with group think? You get a quite ready tendency to collaborate with whoever is in power.. and hence an other variant of the unpleasant ideological adventures in the past which Belgium smoothly glided off into.

Nations, peoples and people make me suspicious, John. Give me unique human beings whom I can admire, respect, hold dear, learn from. The Divine does not ask us more than that. It is a life’s task. A not so simple task, because it may require giving our life for it.

"Pleading for truthfulness" like this? (just kidding).

• I was not talking about being frank & direct in a "group think" mannerism setting ... as that would be an instant paradox!

• In my view: "group think" / "hive mind" / collectivism / "us vs them mentality" are ALL the opposite of living in true self-honesty / directness / being frank ...

• Always Keep in mind that "being frank" does NOT imply you claim you are 100% flawless ... you learn BEST from any feedback if you are at least 100% frank and honest with yourself and others. Otherwise, you are running in circles, trapped in so many unnecessary mind-games & endless drama queen rhetoric.

• So be more pragmatic! ... Less made up avatars representing "feelings & emotions" getting misunderstood by default ... because it was not frank to begin with.

cheers,
