Feel free to respond/go into detail more if you happen to have the time/choose to. I guess I’ll say that is not how I personally experience it. The default state is to be in Consensus and not even be aware there is a choice, even if you were born in some feral culture and then say move to a very different culture, it’s very different because you think your own culture is normal and act that way. At my current point in time to “act Consensus” or to suppress Slighted-beliefs is like a constant forced strain on my moral compass. This is not a choice framing in my opinion, although as is with all definitions people can see very different things in certain words despite potential overlap and I would not want to discount that.
I guess one thing I’m saying is that one can have any given beliefs without taking the Slighted affiliations/attitudes too far. It’s not a mere choice, it’s a skill, potentially a big one (like lots of subskills, like “programming” is a skill), that one could learn over time.
