" self-regulating "

 [ "Self-regulation" ]

1: That's the issue, isn't it?

  * e.g.,  ... Hym "You know, the participants ask 'what can I do to get him to do what I want him to do?' and the answer is 'nothing until the problem is acknowledged'. I've outlined the problem. You all refuse to acknowledge it. You have attributed to me an inability to self-regulate. You've taken it upon yourself to step in (in Orwellian fashion) to aggregate and disseminate information. The purpose is irrelevant. The presupposition of the act is that you are capable of self-regulation so this doesn't need to happen to you but I am incapable of self-regulation (in a way that you are not) and so your surveillance of me is not only justified but necessary. You are not qualified to make that assessment. Nor do you have the authority. You will do the thing I want you to do or I will do a thing I don't want to do in direct response to the act. It's the only choice you've left me. Hurry it up. I haven't got all morning."
