It's complicated
--Life-alienating communication both stems from and support hierarchical or domination society, where large populations are controlled by a small number of individuals to those individuals own benefit. It would be in the interest of kings, czars, nobles and so forth that the masses be educated in a way that renders them slavelike in mentality. The language on wrongness, should, and have to is perfectly suited for this purpose: the more people are trained to think in terms of moralistic judgement that imply wrongness and badness, the more they are being trained to look outside of themselves - to look outside authorities-for the definition of what constitutes right, wrong, good, and bad. When we are in contact with our feelings and needs, we humans no longer make good slaves and underlings. --

i completely agree on the quote.
