If it is established(established where) Shepard isn't indoctrinated before the ending.
That means the kid is real and a retard.
But also the Rachni thoughts on what happened to her people is worthless.
If the Reapers can put stuff into your mind to make you lose focus, you be pretty indoctrinated.
Unless you don't believe that.
Being in the process of being indoctrinated is not the same as actually being indoctrinated.
"the process of being indoctrinated" is a concept purely created by fans.
Didn't Rana and Benezia explain it as a process and not an off/on-style thing?
It's a process where at the end you are a walking mass that is under full Reaper control. As I said, in % where do you think you have to be to be called indoctrinated? At the first few % where the Reapers slightly push your buttons so you make choices that are favoring them in a grander scheme without losing to rationally explain the decision in terms of how it fit that moment? Or do you have to openly say "yay Reapers! Harvest me!"
It sounds to me like you just contradicted yourself

Could you be a little more clear please?
You said that the "process of indoctrination" is something created by fans, and then you just said that indoctrination is a procress that ranges from influenced descision making to full blown mind-control.
Sooo... it
is a process then? Not an On/off kind of deal?
And from what the codex says, if it's done rapidly the host becomes little more than a husk, but if done over a period of months or years, the target can still retain some semblence of free thought while still being influenced.
