I didn’t read the book but when I searched it up it said it’s said something about two boys watching football and eating popcorn at a girls house, sorry I hope it helps and gives you an idea!?
It is essentially a matter of opinion
The transcendental belief that this excerpt by Ralph Waldo Emerson illustrates is that society and government corrupt the individual.
The voices here refers to the voice of individuality, which we hear in solitude. Hence, as we enter the world the voices blend. Against the individuality, Emerson believes society to be "in a conspiracy." To make this more clear, Emerson makes an analogy with "Joint stock" of a company. He further refers, rather secure "liberty" it's better to eat. In additions refers that names and customs are its friends, not realities and creators.
"Deflect" does not suggest a mental process this would suggest that the thought never entered the mind, since it would be "deflected" from the mind and unable to be pondered.
