Radical Honesty
People who practice Radical Honesty employ a collection of techniques which shift them out of typically socially acceptable patterns of “white lying” and into a more truthful relationship with themselves and others. Basically they spit in your face the naked truth against any kind of community politeness level.
Here’s the deal imagine with me for a moment or just until I finish what Im trying to say here. Imagine a plague of this nature instead of HnN1 or swine flu and the impact was far more powerful than this one and managed to infiltrate only 50% of the world population!
So on one hand you have 50% of the people normal individuals and live in their respective countries going about their life just as they do every day. The other hand has the other 50% that have been Infected with this RH-V9( Radical Honesty Virus, I put the 9 in there to give it that scary scientific name feeling) so they basically can only tell the naked truth, nothing less than that or they fall sick.
I immediately see world chaos and more damage done than an atomic bomb on hiroshima, Tsunami & the great Pompeii earthquake combined. I can see faces never witnessed before, I see people in total dismay, total panic, total shock and disbelief of the current situation.
The news stations would have two different views on the same channel. so you know how you have two people delivering the news beside each other as if they are having a conversation, yeah you get what I’m coming to. “Ladies & gentlemen we interrupt this program to bring you a news flash”
Normal news lady: We believe that the notorious & feared RH-V9 virus has been reported to the health administration today in some distant area as far as you can imagine from where you live, the casualties are in the single digits only. The health department issued a statement today stating the issue is under control so far, but beware and keep a look out for people that tell the blunt truth!
RH-V9 Infected news guy: Please beware and get ready to tell the truth, nothing but the truth and everything in between, so help you God. We regret to tell you that there is no hope, you will be infected like all of us, its good to feel guilt free you know. The numbers have passed the 3 billion mark as we speak and are growing at uncatchable speed, we do not have enough vaccine, we never did in the first place, sorry but that’s the truth.And now try and see if you can enjoy the sports news and the gloomy weather after that.
So that was the news early in the morning on your way to work. The guy next to you in the fancy Range Rover cut you off just before the traffic light, you get out of the car and tell him to lower his window, he does, you scream in his face “ A#$ H#$%! you cut me off, what? you think your the boss?” So far, its just a normal day. Then the fight starts, and the police arrive half an hour later, the cop comes over to you and asks what happens, you jump in and tell him the exact story, you even offer to write the report.
The guy in the Range starts with a different story, you go over to him and kiss him on the cheeks, cause after that report writing you knew you were infected, the other driver gets infected and he says the truth, peace so far.
You get to work, look at the guard and ask him to stop wearing that stinky perfume, you bump into a dumb collegue in the elevator, you tell him he is considered dumb by his bosses, he cries.
You see another manager from a department you always have fights with, you scream to him “ You mean manager, wait till I become boss and fire your ass!” he stares in disbelief. You get on your desk and start calling customers to tell them about the bad things you offer, they like you more, they buy more things they don’t need from you, you cry in disbelief.
Your manager comes close and personal to you and whispers something about that late two year raise, you stand up look around the room and start to scream in his face at 9 in the morning” stop treating me and the rest like fools, you know your a total jerk, and your only here because you married the chairmans daughter, your breath stinks of garlic, onions, smoke and bad breath and you know it! your teeth are stained, your underarms stink, you cover it with cheap perfume sold at traffic lights, you don’t even remember my name!, he dies.
You tell everyone at work what you really think of them, suddenly the room is empty and everyone has an emergency at home, they perish. The senior manager of the company arrives late and thanks you for coming early, you scream back at him “ how can you be so immature, so not professional? at least lead by example, you never worked more than 4 hours a day, while we work for 9 hours or more daily?”, he fires you on the spot.
You leave work, on your way you get the groceries, the cashier is slow and looks sad or angry which is it? you can’t figure out, he looks at you from top to bottom, weighs you, gives you that look, and hands you the change while looking at the next guy in line. You come close to him and tell him” You suck at your job, very bad, shame on you, smile you idiot, just smile” The manager comes running, you tell him the story and wait for his action, he says the owe you an apology,you ask him if its worth anything at this store? he calls security, you leave.
You get home look at your angry stubborn wife, she screams the dinner is on the table, she has not been affected yet. She complains on and on about the little stuff, the kids, the leakage, the in laws, the coming weekend party, the car service, the expensive rice, the bad life she is living these days, she needs a job, you look at her, smile, and look away.
“What is wrong with you?” she demands. “You want the truth honey?” “YES!” Ok but don’t say I didn’t warn you:
You don’t respect me, you don’t look good like you did 5 years ago, I don’t like your cooking anymore, You never treat me nice, you look better when your family comes over, you never come with me on my trips, you never listen when I talk, you look down on me, you never shop with me, you never wear what I buy for you, you prefer your friends over me,I hate how you smell when you finish cooking, you wear old perfumes that remind me of my grandmother, I hate that hair style you have,and the color makes you look like a pop star wanna be,,, she breaks his truth spree “But you..
He places his finger on her lips, “ Shhh… But I love you baby, so give me a break and love me back”
Freedom is the most contagious virus known to man.
