What Does Coercion Do to Your Creative Rational Thinking?

Coercion throws a spanner in the works of this creative rational process. It's trying to impose an outcome instead of creating it through reason. Karl Popper called the bucket theory of the mind, which is that our minds are always active. They're never passively receiving stuff from outside like water being poured into a bucket. The more free-flowing everyone's creative rational thinking is, the more potential there is for learning and improvement.
