How would you defeat a telepath?

get Jean to make them gay

>>149123968 (OP)
Honestly I've always thought about thinking of something shocking, like make up a memory of murdering someone they'd be so distracted you could punch them out.

>>149123968 (OP)
Think of Adam Duritz. That will repel anything.

There is no way they can read your thoughts and react faster than you can think it.
If you punch from the right they won't parry in time.
As soon as the word "right" appears in their heads they are already getting their cheekbone shattered.
And if they focus on reading the mind they can't think of their center of gravity, the position of their own feet, the other people around them and so forth.

In a brawl, it's a small bonus, not an overwhelming obstacle.

>>149123968 (OP)
Filling my head with stale memes, thousands of songs of different genres, and a million random things will be so overwhelming that they'll have to stop.

>>149124130
Have you ever looked someone in the eye as you fought them? If you have decent reflexes, you can read someone's moves and block without even needing psychic abilities, so I don't think your theory holds water.

superior willpower blocks them out.

>>149123968 (OP)
Set up traps automated by machines without minds to read.
Your ability to read my mind like a book won't save you from a claymore mine that I set for you and then left so you don't even have my mind to read to know its there.

On the other hand, there's an entire art to feinting and misleading your intentions to your opponent. The same could easily be true for fights with a psychic.

Psionic feedback loop. Then when they're on their knees screaming in pain, two rounds to the back on the head, gangland execution style.

turn your monitor on

>>149124130
I mean by the time you're swinging you only start thinking about attacking. It's how the body works, you move before you're consciously aware of it. So yeah, I could buy that making it impossible for a telepath to get much of an advantage in a melee fight.
They'd need a read on your nervous system, not your mind.

Think about them reading my thoughts so that it creates a recursive loop and blows up their brain.

Man, there's no way I could ever defeat a telepath. I'm juts going to sit down here and wallow in defeat, Heck, there's no way I could win even if he kept put down his weapon and kept coming closer to gloat. Nope, no chance for me against an unarmed feller leaning over me with his neck exposed and easy to punch. I'm just too much of a pussy to even do that.

And the mindreader hears all of that and waits patiently while you think about how great your fakeout mental ruse punch will work, and waits for you to wind up before flooding your mind with images of her fucking your Dad.

Literally my first thought kek

>>149123968 (OP)
I have this one friend that everyone thinks has a personality disorder of some sort. He's a cool guy, just a bit awkward. Sort of like Michael Cera mixed with McLovin.

Anyways, his mind is incomprehensible. Whenever you try to figure out how it works, you're wrong. Everyone thinks they've got him pegged, then he does something out of left field that lets you know you never knew the first thing about him. The only thing is, once you start trying to decipher his mind, you can't stop. It's like a labyrinth. Once you enter it's walls you're forever doomed to wander it's seemingly endless twists and turns always thinking you've finally cracked the code only to find a harsh reminder that you never knew the first thing about where you were going and that perhaps you've gotten yourself more lost than you can possibly fathom.

I've always wondered if telepathy were real what it would be like for someone to read his mind. Are we all just being over the top about it and he's actually a really straight forward guy, or would they go mad from the revelation and find themselves trapped in his labyrinth forever?

>>149123968 (OP)
What is the context of this image?

In the Dredd movie the perp tries to imagine sex stuff to freak out Anderson the telepath but she turns the tables on him. It's likely most telepaths are as hardened to freaky imagery as an old school b/tard

>>149134993
Someone's thinking about the Blob naked. It isn't the image though. The imagineer is imagining his deep, sonorous braps, and the gurgling within his flabby bulk.

>>149123968 (OP)
A lot of problems I'm seeing here is a disagreement on what a telepath is. Do they just read thoughts? Can they talk back with thoughts? Change them? Mibd control? Hallucinations? It depends on the writer. These are broad powers that can't be put together under "telepath" and be done with. Set the boundries then have this discussion.

>>149125476
No joke there are some "sci fi" settings where telepaths can read your mind thousands of miles away.

>>149123968 (OP)
I'd go back in time qhen telepath meant "person who can read your thoughts", not today where it means "omega level mutant who can rewrite the entire human mind in seconds, several times in a row, perfectly because they are the writer's Mary Sue".

>>149123968 (OP)
It depends. How strong the telepath is.
1)Reads your thoughts. 2) Can influence you. 3)(Or) Can control/possess you. (Like Professor Xavier).
And it depends on the distance of influence of the power and the density it passes through or not. (Like Xavier and Magneto).
And as an anon said, physical ability also matters. That is whether it is a physical fight (or not).
I think I would use infrasound and/or ultrasound. Hoping it works and that it has mental telepathy and not magical.

They read my mind, then they don't do shit about it because they're too lazy to act on a follow-up. Thanks, Satan.

The way I write a telepath is: they are so aware of everything everyone they ever meet will ever think, say or do that they have a difficult time responding to it, and ultimately become detached. Ordinary people should find the character alien or weird because they don't respond to social cues properly. Not out of arrogance or impoliteness, but because that "need" no longer exists, so they'll often forget it's necessary.

Imagine playing a video game for the 30th time so you know what every character wants, will do, "exists for", how they will respond to any given stimuli you throw at them, etcetera. It's kind of like this. You have such a thru road into every element that makes up an individual that they stop feeling like people anymore. They are just elements of your environment. A collection of factors, not the sum of their parts. You don't have to resent these other people or develop a god complex over it, you will just have a hard time feeling like anyone else is truly alive.

If the telepath can actually manipulate thoughts it's even worse, since the temptation to adjust anything disagreeable or otherwise inconvenient will be enormous. Even our average person with a typical moral complex would be tempted to reconfigure those around them.

You've clearly never been in a fight before. You don't think "I'm going to throw a right punch". You just do it. It all goes quickly, there's no time to think.

>>149127139
This guy gets it.

>>149124463
True but for this to work you've basically already got to be a decent fighter.

Like overall I can see it giving you a small advantage in a physical fight situation: mainly before anything actually happens though. Like if you saw someone walking up to you and knew telepathically that they were about to swing at you - sure being a telepath helps. But once you're actually in the melee I don't think it would help much.
