This is a really good representation of how Israelis actually think IMO. This guy has actually interacted with and spoken to more Palestinians directly than 99% of people on the planet. -

Because the human desire to maintain the status quo is more powerful than the desire to improve. This applies to everything: pollution, personal development, electric cars, etc... -
I would love it if more women joined and posted. I wonder if something can be done about this. This space is dominated by the male perspective, and without balance, it often becomes rigid and argumentative. This already happened to me more than once. If God is Being and God is Love, then we need more femininity around here. We need more high consciousness women.

I think so too. Abdul forces people to think about the similarities between trans surgery and circumcision. Why is one completely normal while the other is radical? Also this comparison forces the left to reflect on why they are ok with someone saying circumcision is stupid but freak out when someone says sex changes are stupid. I personally think both circumcision and sex changes are an unnecessary medical procedures and people who do them are misguided. Every argument a person can make for a sex change can be made for circumcision (i.e. it makes me happier, it's who I am, it helps me feel belonged to a group.) -

I don’t think consciousness would perceive reality through senses like we do. The senses are part of the experience itself. Its nature would simply be existence itself. There can’t be any substance coming from outside of consciousness because then consciousness wouldn’t be fundamental. It’s the same with existence itself. Either something has always existed or it has a beginning. But a beginning from absolute nothing makes no sense because nothing can’t produce something. -

If you were sure to be god you could manifeste 5000 dollars in your left hand right now. -
Awesome! I have been craving more content on Ego Development. Thanks a lot — already on my playlist. Based on Actualized.org's EDT videos, I consider myself in the post-conventional tier, with my center of gravity falling somewhere between Individualist / Pluralist and Autonomous / Strategist. Which is why I'm now reading "Thinking in Systems" — to deeply enter and solidify myself in the latter stage. I will watch this series and report back on insights and whether the new perspective changes where I see myself.

I honestly do not understand how an average American citizen can be against DSA Like, I am sure they got some insane positions but overall they seem much more evolved than republicans or establishment democrats Also their policies actually do benefit the ordinary American Cheaper or free Healthcare, cheaper education, higher wages, lower costs etc It is very self-serving to support them, yet they prefer billionare obsessed sell-outs like Trump Can someone from USA explain this to me? Why would anyone vote for Cuomo over Mandani? Or not vote for Abdul but vote for that woman (cant remember her name) I am not even talking about Israel and Palestine I notice a lot of people in USA are obsessed with that topic I am talking about pragmatism, about what actually benefits you as an ordinary American My European mind glitches -

I do not agree with the premise of this thread It is not that society hates ugly people It is just that ugly people do not have the same innate advantages that beautiful people do They need to compensate more as they are lacking in that value providing aspect of themselves However, saying "hate" is a big word Also, I think there is a gender component I feel men tend to be tolerated more for not being beautiful compared to women This depends a bit on the country, usually on more traditional societies that is the case -
Thank you for that response, it's excellent.

Change of state is the critical to all this. In the past, I’ve said “Weed are the World”. In other words, Weed is my superpower. And with great power, comes great responsibility. When I take a breakthrough dose of Weed, it becomes clear that You are all Me, and that there is absolutely no separation between us. As I have (and continue to) improve my relationship with Myself, it also improves my relationship to Weed, which in turn improves my relationship with the World. It truly goes full circle. -
Strategy and planning, that’s the golden key. 🔐 You got this, well done. 👏

good food for thought, thanks for sharing

It's all subconcious, on like a lizard brain level. The lizard brain knows nothing about sperm banks, condoms, or the pill.

These are really good points. The author of Red Queen goes into this in detail, but basically they find that women who do this want the support and security of a provider male while getting the genetics of a lover male. I'm sure there is some factor of excitement or thrill that leads to the orgasm, but what's interesting is that it is the type of orgasm that increases the chance of pregnancy. The also saw a very similar trend in birds and that 40% of the male sparrows were raising chicks that weren't actually theirs. The female sparrows were "having affairs" with the most dominant male sparrows, while using the "lower value" sparrows to be the providers and protectors of those children. Pretty fucked.

The key is: Prioritize yourself; Do not try to manipulate others' emotions — you are not responsible — let the chips fall where they may. For people who learned to manipulate others' emotions early in life, this is usually hard word, but it can be done. If you had a parental figure who used emotional manipulation to guide your behavior (e.g., "son, if you do this mom will be really sad") more than average, you likely have psychological patterns where you feel guilty if you can't match their expectations. For example: someone invites to go out; you don't want, yet you feel obliged to accept. Sometimes this can even take a more dysfunctional form, e.g., another person does something that is likely to upset a third person, yet you feel responsible to try and cover it up or make up for it — despite it clearly not being your responsibility. The important thing here is to become aware of the pattern and expose yourself to situations where you don't try to make it up for things that are not your responsibility. In the first occurrences you will likely feel cognitive dissonance, but over time you will learn how to ride the wave. PS: When exposing yourself to new patterns of behavior, it is sometimes easier to go a bit further than the optimal balance. So if you act a bit like a jerk in the beginning it's OK. Over time you adjust your set point. For now you gotta explore the dark side a bit.

Sure, i don't disagree with you that women need to be discerning and sort men out. But I would argue that women already do this "disgust factoring" with their laundry list of red flags and ick factors, which is why they are so picky and why so few men actually get sex, a problem that is only getting worse and leaving more women and men lonely, bitter, and frustrated. I also don't think women shouldn't have a life purpose, something they are excited about, their own independence, etc. I for one do not want to be anyone's fucking charity case and pay for all their meals etc, or they have no intelligence, independence, art.

you guys are taking these value models like spiral dynamics way out of proportion, it has only partly to do with it, mostly it has to do with her age.. after 25 she will start to calcify after all of those pumps and dumps so she will become more masculine in her personality. the best is to catch a girl between 20-25 age range , that will give you a good shot for a long term relationship. higher age ranges can be possible but be ready for a world of hurt
