WE are in danger of Augmenting-Alienative-Conflicts and/or Levels-of-Alienation, if WE ARE WILLING TO:

 1. Answer-Questions just as-they-come-to-us:
    a. Framed in misleading-ways; e.g., with built-in false-assumptions and/or alienative: attitudes,
       values, ideals, principles, intentions, plans, etc. - - - implicitly taken for granted.
    b. Wrapped up in alienative: allusions, implications,gossip, etc.
    c. As tests of loyalty to Domineering-Bullies who are fully engaged in Alienative-Conflicts.
    d. Treated-as-if we are qualified-to-answer-the-questions in a meaningful and/or authoritative-
       way - - - when we are not qualified to do so.
    e. When we are not at all well informed and/or have spent no significant time in researching the
       questions and the diverse possible responses to them.
    f. When answering the questions will compromise our ability to fulfill committments, promises and
       covenants we made in the past; e.g., through conflicts in interest in incompatible roles.

 2. Respond to the Questions - - - even through doing so will threaten other people's privacy.

 3. Respond to the Question within contexts where there is no hope of exposing the ways in which the 
    questions are: Misleading, Prejudicial, Threats-to-People's Most-Basic-Rights and/or Likely-to-
    Augment Alienative-Conflicts and/or existing Levels-of-Alienation.

 4. Be distracted from: (a) fulfilling committments made and/or (b) spending our time in overall 
    more helpful and creative ways.
