  1. Past hour
  2. It’s much bigger than redpill because it doesn’t get censored.
  3. @Leo Gura What's your favorite video that you've ever made? I'm curious which part of your body of work you enjoy most.
  4. Ouch that most recent link from Naftali - hard no. He is unintegrated. Just knows the words and that's it.
  5. Today
  6. Pink pill is just ragebait created for Red Pillers to whine about.
  7. I agree with this view.
  8. That was a boring guest tbh. I've found this interview a bit more to the point, but I think he's still distracted with the panthism/idealism hair splitting. I like his "live" contemplation way of talking that lets you follow along. First time hearing him btw.
  9. What are you basing this on? I ask because I like to read up on oceanography and climate science as a hobby (It was part of my bachelor's). I cannot find anything that backs up a 5 year trajectory. Scientists just don't predict a simultaneous global systemic collapse within five years. If you have some rock solid shit you have come across certainly fling it my way - I'd be really keen to dig into it! I do think this El Nino event will be disruptive. But I also think you are falling into blackpill / doom & gloom thinking....
  10. If she had said, "Okay, I agree. Goodbye," would you have genuinely been at peace with that?
  11. Ultimatums can be toxic if used in that way but that's literally the foundation every single relationship is based on. Why on earth would people stay in relationships if they don't get their desires and needs met? That's codependency.
  12. He is not reacting the way you think, that’s misinterpretation on your part, you could’ve finished the sentence after “I don’t understand” period, would’ve been the most accurate response
  13. Mm, feels rare that there’s someone else but me arguing for it too
  14. These are tiny numbers. Is your argument really that 35 non-citizen ballots in all of Iowa and 42 non-citizen ballots in all of Tennessee are part of a nationwide voter-fraud conspiracy by the democrats? Many of those are also only potential non-citizen cases, not even the number of confirmed cases. Even the worst case here of 2,724 out of 18 million in Texas is pretty inconsequential. Texas often has voter margins in the order of 1.5 million votes. 2.7k isn’t putting a dent in that. They lawyered up because the DOJ was asking for vast quantities of completely unredacted voter rolls containing sensitive and personal information about citizens of those states. Many states understandably argued this would be a huge privacy violation. You’re conflating stale registrations with fraudulent votes here. Identifying the people who moved away or failed to vote through several elections does not correlate with fraudulent or illegal voting in any way. If I move to Thailand tomorrow I’ll still be registered to vote here in the UK for a while, probably years. Does that mean that while I’m gone my vote is going to be stolen by an illegal immigrant to boost up our left wing party’s vote count? No, of course not. Yea, Oregon should probably have managed its voter role better, but them fucking that up isn’t evidence of a nationwide democrat conspiracy, it’s evidence of mild incompetence in the face of a very challenging administrative task
  15. This is a cool report. I resonate with it. Ego death is like mental surgery without anesthesia. I did not understand much your "fana al fana" thing back then.
  16. No. You need only respect each other's dignity and implicit/ explicit obligations of the relationships.
  17. Yes but negotation in the sake of wellbeing of both parties. Not threats such as "I will leave if you do not do as I desire".
  18. Every relationship involves much negotiation
  19. Not implicitly but fundamentally yes they are. You are choosing to invest your time with someone and their actions throughout the relationship will dictate if you will stay in it or not. It shouldn't be a continuous frame battle and a healthy relationship has baked in alignment with personality, communication and goals but it remains a transactional arrangement at the end of the day. You put in yourself and they put themselves and when problems occur you try to fix them and if there are irreconcilable disagreements you cancel the transaction and each party goes their own way. It's great to romanticize it and I love love but that's what it is. You are right that you can use the walking away in toxic ways and ideally you should talk about it and understand the other's position and try to accommodate it if you want to. At the end of the day it's still the same mechanism though the more desperate and needy you are the more you will compromise on your wants and needs for fear of losing the other and the more in abundance you are the more you will be willing to walk away and find other partner that are more aligned with you.
  20. But relationships are not some negotiation table like in business. Not the healthy ones at very least. That is the core problem of this.
  21. You're being too black or white in your thinking. You can say statements that state your willingness to walk away so that she better understands the negotiation position she is in.
  22. So why not dissolve the ego before seeking god realization
  23. Yesterday
  24. The Bible was written by human beings over a long period of time. the first five books of the Bible which are called the Torah were written by Moses. The four Gospels:Matthew.. Mark..Luke..and John were written by Jesus’ disciples or their close followers. They tell the story of Jesus’ life and His teachings..His death and His resurrection. They are NOt books that Jesus personally wrote. Christians believe that while the Bible was written by human authors(the prophets ) but those authors were guided and inspired by the “Holy Spirit”. In other words they believe the literal words were written by people but that the “Holy Spirit “ helped guide them in writing His message.
  25. I'm curious. Couldn't I simply say that if you believe in Jesus, then you will be damned because he was a false prophet and only in disbelieving him will we be saved? I could in theory take the opposite position of the church and say that believing them will lead you straight to hell. This forces a position in which no matter what there is always a risk of damnation no matter what you believe and there is no safe belief as any incorrect belief in regards to ancient history leads to damnation. Fear mongering in the direction of religious belief seems to be effective at scale, but I could also fear monger about genocides motivated by religion and ideology in general. At the same time, I did recognize a difficult cognitive dissonance I still struggle with to some degree. From the beginning I never intellectually believed in the Bible. I was like this since my family first started praying at the table, but they didn't explain it very well so I wasn't convinced. However, from mere exposure, I would have dreams about Jesus anyway as if he represented great virtue and a means of redemption as it related to things like depression and trauma with deep shame and self-blame. This internal cognitive dissonance in which mere exposure caused familiarity and a sense that it is somehow true despite conscious disbelief became deeply confusing and it is probably the main reason why I read so much into religion despite knowing its numerous problems and why I would have to be intellectually naive to believe these things. Maybe the reason I do so much learning is partially because I mistook a need for love with a need for knowledge. It is hard for me to find love though, so I often end up sticking to more learning on a broad range of topics instead. For me love requires trust, but it is hard to trust humans if they believe in things like this. I seem to define people committed to honest truth seeking as more trust worthy. I might be confused with what trust means in the context of love. It probably means trust that I will be safe and I will not be endangered. This might relate to how trusting that Jesus will save you will stop you from being damned. In my case being damned would be more like perpetual self-hatred and the absence of love.
  26. Dude why do you keep talking to me like I do not know pickup. I have been engaged for a long time in it. There are different modalities of pickup, some are more healthy, some less. But this is a bad habbit to pickup if you want to lead healthy relationship. This is not abundance, this is avoidance. Instead of resolving the conflict you threaten breakup, she is insecure (surprise) so she leans back into it. Any healthy woman would just walk away. Either resolve the conflict like a mature human or decide that she is not aligned with you enough for you to invest energy and break up with her. That is real abundance. This is just masked neediness. Real abundance would be if you were able to walk away from a relationship knowing that you will not get another one.
