Yeah, we discussed this before. He is too far gone.

That's why a real man doesn't care if he doesn't have a girlfriend. The problem is you aren't going all the way. You want the goodies. If you want the goodies then you gotta jump through the hoops like a poodle to get them. Instead of having a girlfriend I created Actualized.org, and it's better than any girlfriend could be.

Or, Love

@Thought Art If you like him, no problem. Have at it.

No. This is how a serious man is. Think of a Zen master. That is a real man. Not some pickup clown. The truth is that a real man doesn't make his life around chasing club bitches. A real man does such serious things that he doesn't have time for games, flirting, and galavanting with drunk fools. Marcus Aurelius, that is a real man. These pickup guys are truamatized sex-obssessed children.

I don't really hate him, it's just that I am sick of these biohacker people. They invent a bunch of over-priced useless things. It is a big expensive distraction. But it gives them a sense of purpose because they got nothing better to do. Dave Asprey is another one of these biohacker grifters.

But what makes 1+1=2 true and certain? Really contemplate this matter deeply. It is not a simple direct experience. You don't experience numbers per se. A political view is such a high-order thing that it can never be guaranteed correct. Political views are not correlated with any particular facts or experiences. There just is no such thing as a "correct" political worldview. Although there are many bad ones.

If by masculine you mean stoic, serious, unexpressive, unemotional, untalkative, and logical -- then yes, this will kill all your results with women.

Emerald is a CIA agent.

They don't care to wake up and they don't care about truth. You can't get something you don't care about.

This hardly needs explaining. Most people who take psychedelics remain clueless.

@Daniel Balan Does 1+1=2? How do you know? Could you be wrong?

No, still you seek to avoid it. Actively contemplating IS the answer. There is not a rule for knowing if you contemplated properly. You must actually do it and make the bet. And then we will see who was right in a hundred years.

Yes. Because truth is the only thing that's real. Everything else is human illusions. Living properly all boils down to truth. You can't fake this with human BS. Which is why the Greeks pursued philosophy. Without philosophy you are just an animal.

I am deeply dubious he is Tier 2. People are right to be skeptical of his weird materialistic obssession with longevity. It sounds like a neurosis fueled by too much money and too little wisdom. I hate people who are obsessed with longevity. It's obvious they lack existential depth and overcompensating for it. I would change his shirt to: Shut up and Die. Counter-intuitive moves

I can and have said a thousand things about epistemology, but here I am reminding you that you must play the game. Your question is of the kind that seeks to avoid playing the game.

There is no formulaic answer. You have to actually be conscious of reality. It's like you are a young chess player asking a grandmaster: "But how can I know I will win my next game?" The answer is you never get such guarantees in chess. You must play the fucking game and win by outwitting your opponent. You can always lose your next game no matter how good you are.

He doesn't owe you a summary.

@No1Here2c Yup

No. I have a video planned on this topic but I held off from releasing it because it will be too painful for people and it will be misused.

Like I said, game is about learning how to act like a girl.

Yes, a lot.

No! It permananetly changes your understanding, and understanding is what matters most, more than any state or enlightenment. Nothing matters but Understanding. God-Realization is just Total Self-Understanding. You can have all the enlightenments you want but you still won't understand.

Good genetics.

There is irrationality, but the problem is that rational people are irrational because it requires consciousness to see the contradictions in one's worldview. Ironically, rationalists do not have enough consciousness to see that rationalism is irrational.
