>>>in subtle ways that appropriate the whole experience and in so doing contaminating it.

If slow conformity or non-conformity to cultural standards were going be portrayed as a consequence of underbelief, or overbelief in some inner counterforce.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overbelief

"Overbelief is philosophical term for a belief adopted that requires more evidence than one presently has. Generally, acts of overbelief are justified on emotional need or faith, rather than evidence. It contrasts with the less-often debated concept, underbelief. Someone who fails to adopt a belief that they clearly have evidence for is committing underbelief"

*Actually the above is interesting, because it appears to discount evidence of emotional need, and guessing dithering [tech sense] between underbelief and overbelief is involved in reason. Worse though it maybe discounts emotional need for evidence.
