Curt is about as good an interviewer as I will ever get. There is no point in me talking to enlightened people. We would agree too much. There would be no value. And I have zero interest in nondual hairsplitting.

Because if you didn't, you'd probably still be sleep together.

UV and everything else exists as perceptions. Just not the perceptions you imagine. UV and atoms are perceptions within your visual field. UV and atoms are a 2nd order visual perception. Then your mind imagines the rest.

I think they were just overrun by the Taliban. Those helicopters are expensive as hell. It should be cheaper to transport them back home than build new ones. But you also have to consider how the business of this works. Defense contractors are happy if the military abandons those vehicles because it just means more orders next year. The incentives are perverse. They like it when expensive equipment is lost.

As sure as you can know such things. You can look up the mercury amounts in typical old-school vaccines on government websites. It's about as much mercury as contained in 1 pound of salmon. Covid vaccines do not contain heavy metals at all.

Of course Berkeley was basically correct. To be is to be perceived. Although still, he was not conscious of Infinity. Or at least he didn't talk about it.

I could get good a doing public dialogues, but that would require lots of practice which I would rather invest in writing my book or shooting my videos. Public dialogues to persuade others via powerful rhetoric is a whole career path onto itself. And not one I'm that interested in. I have no desire to turn into a Vaush-like debate lord. My content is not suited for that.

I am anti-vaxx if the vaccine contains heavy metals. Then again, a can of tuna contains as much mercury as one vaccine. The problem with most anti-vaxxers is that they would have no problem at all eating 10 cans of tuna, but bitch and cry about a vaccine that does not even contain heavy metals.

Who said there was 1 path to Truth? There are infinite paths to Truth.

You make a duality between Truth and some VR dream. Truth IS the dream. They are identical. If they are not, you are stuck in duality. I see Truth right now and at all times. Since it is all there is. But there are still various degrees of seeing it. Am I at the highest level of consciousness right now as I could be? No. But neither are you. You are dreaming right now. If you weren't, there would be no universe. This is simply false. You assume a duality between psychedelic states and non-psychedelic states. No such duality exists. This duality is purely your bias. All states are Absolute Truth. You do not properly understand how psychedelics work. If I was to use your logic, I could likewise say that anything that you take away from meditation or self-inquiry is relegated to concept and thus isn't it. This is a foolish way of thinking.

Dysfunction is always a lack of holism and harmony. Function and health requires exquisite dynamic balance. Which is otherwise known as intelligence.

Because we do self improvement here, and one of the biggest things guys want to improve is their sex life. The fastest way to convince a guy to improve himself is to promise him more sex. Because guys think with their dicks.

Because many young men these days struggle with attracting women. A big part of it is simply lack of socialization. People on the internet are overwhelmingly introverted and socially dysfunctional. And the majority of the YT audience is young males.

Yes But also many commonalities.

Not alone. Together foever!

Yeah, but even I was a bit shocked by how poorly they handled the logistics of the withdrawal. Leaving all that military equipment to the Taliban is so wasteful.

It's important to realize that ideas stand on their own merits regardless of whose mouth they come out of. An idea's validity does not depend on the speaker. If Hitler told you that God is Love, that is irrelevant to whether or not God is Love. Stop getting hung up on the personality of the speaker/author. It does not matter. What matters is the ideas.

I would just be more conscious of the biases inherent in pickup culture. The principles and techniques are good. The culture is ridiculously toxic, immature, and self-biased. Dis-aggregating the two can be challenging.

@Flyboy You are imagining reality. This is not a concept. You are arguing over nothing.

Sounds like devilry

Well, survival is devilry. It's not possible to survive without murdering something. Of course devilry is part of God.

I was born again by pickup. Later I was unborn by God's Love.

I do have some bad habits from my pickup days. Pickup forces one to be hyper pragmatic and brutal. And then it takes years to unwire that. Pickup also wires in certain biases that later need to be unwried, but that takes deliberate effort. These are the biggest downsides of pickup. It's like growing up in The Church of Vagina.

That's precisely because your survival values the iphone so much higher. All value is survival and bias. You are not getting how deep survival and bias goes. Your survival runs so deep that most things are not even a choice because if you chose them you'd be dead. Death is your ultimate bias that spawns all the other biases. If you want to see what unbias looks like, study a rock. The rock has no biases. The rock makes no choices. The rock does not do art and it does not like blue more than anything else. Why? Because it isn't surviving.

Imagination is not hard to understand. Look at your body right now. It is imaginary. It's so simple. Every physical object you see is imaginary. You are dreaming. You are hallucinating the physical. Look man, you cannot stay alive without manipulation. Life is constant manipulation to stay alive. Even if you are fully enlightened. When I speak down about manipluation the point is that you do a lot of excessive manipulation which could be dropped or changed into a higher quality manipulation. You are not ever going to stop manipulating. But you can improve how you manipulate. You can make your manipulations very conscious, intelligent, loving, and artful.
