@The Crocodile Stop provoking him. Let it go.

I teach very advanced things. Isn't that obvious? That's because I have an advanced mind and if you want simple teaching those are a dime a dozen. Bookstores are filled with basic self-help advice. My mind is not needed for that. My focus is to teach things no one else will teach you. It's like I teach graduate school, not high school. Most people never get to grad school. But also, I try to make things very accessible because this doesn't require some crazy IQ to understand and normal people can learn it.

That is so true! I've been hammering that point. Thanks for sharing.

Seems to me that Musk's ideology is anti-wokeness, and just maximizing his own power. Not Nazism.

What is the punishment for sharing nudes in his state? Does Florida even have a revenge porn law? Why is he being sued in federal court?

But China will not allow its citizens to use this AI for serious independent critical thinking. How will their society handle this, since they are so into censorship? How can China have serious AI when they don't even allow basic www internet?

I reach out people who I feel are suitable and I am very selective about it. Please don't take it personally but most people are not right for the job.

It is sad to see Musk devolve into such low quality perspective and corruption. If social media can rot his mind, what chance do normies and Gen Z have? The online media social matrix is terrifying in its ability to create self-deception. It's like a mass self-deception machine and hardly anyone is aware of its epistemic distortion effects on mankind yet. And AI now throws gasoline on that fire. The 21st century could go down in history as the century of the epistemic degeneracy of mankind.

I don't even remember the thumbnail.

Please don't.

I apologize, I'm still trying to get Vimeo to fix it.

Yes, we will add some new mods soon.

I regret not acting sooner. Sorry.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Initially I just removed his Mod status. But then he became verbally abusive so I had to ban him. He was posting abusive things to other members.

There is no limit on seats.

Nowadays sure. But that might be because blackpill/redpill has gained a lot of traction in the last 10 years.

People do change over the years, and sometimes for the worse. The mind can gradually become more lost in itself and unhinged, for many reasons.

By definition bypassing is problematic.

I try to select the most mature and wise people that I see here. But over years their behavior can also change, as was the case with NoSelfSelf. His behavior seemed to devolve over the years, or maybe I just didn't know him well enough from the start. Frankly his case is so rare I've barely had to deal with something like this before. I almost never feel a need to demote a Mod. Usually Mods leave on their own because they have other stuff going on outside the forum that is more important.

He felt his effort here was unappreciated. He has a unique worldview and style, and he thought it was an effective way to communicate. Clearly it wasn't but he did not accept that reality. So here we are. It is easy to get blinded by the strength of one's own perspective.

@Twentyfirst Do not make this personal against other members here. Behave yourself. I am not going to constantly monitoring you for this. If you do not improve your conduct you risk losing access to this fourm. Please post in a more mature and understanding manner.

This is a good time to thank and appreciate the good work that our Mods do around here most of the time. Thank you Mods! And even thank you to NoSelfSelf. His work here for years had positive aspects which deserve acknowledgement.

Not necessarily. Untruthful and insincere things can be said in a fit of anger. Anger speaks out of hurt and often tries to say anything to hurt another, without any consideration for truth.

I usually do not ever share private conversations, but since NoSelfSelf has accused me of being unfair to him, of being fake, and abusing my power, I feel it justified to post a screenshot of our actual conversation thread over the last month so you can judge for yourselves if he was treated unfairly or if I abused my power. This is the entire conversation without edits:
