  1. Probably
  2. The point is to maximize consciousness and love across all living beings. Don't get lost in petty issues.
  3. You are very naive about how corporations do business & about white collar crime. The entire political system is deliberately designed to redistribute wealth upwards to the most powerful. There is nothing arbitrary about it. That is right-wing trickle down economics. Weakening the government by going the "limited government" route will only make this problem worse. There cannot be a limited government when greater levels of social organization require massively complex management systems. You cannot have all of today's modern technological luxuries while also organizing government via caveman politics. With caveman government you get caveman lifestyle.
  4. Death is a fantasy. You cannot kill yourself because you are immortal. All you can do is change forms.
  5. Spirituality is about facing your fears and realizing that all fear is illusion. The whole function of life is learn how to love vs fear. That is really the only thing you're doing here in life. Everything is just a variation on this theme. Take a look.
  6. Your views of how government and capitalism work are very naive. Capitalism IS a redistribution of resources to giant corporations and the most powerful and manipulative people, which undermines democracy. Social democracy is a check on that redistribution of wealth to elites. Elites use capitalism to extract massive amounts of wealth from the rest of society regardless of the damage it causes. Democracy + capitalism is a contradiction. There is no such thing. If you have capitalism you have anti-democracy because money buys all politicians. This leads to corporatism, plutocracy, and corruption. Corruption is not a function of evil people doing bad things, it's a function of money infecting the democratic process in a systemic way.
  7. The Kochtopus is still thriving. It goes way beyond any one individual. It's an ideology and a super-organism that takes on a life of its own. Similar to The Family Netflix documentary. Just because Doug Kho is dead, doesn't mean The Family isn't a big problem in politics. Likewise with Trumpism. Trumpism will be a problem even after Trump leaves office because it is a larger ideological force. It's not about attacking Trump, it's about making people aware of the larger systemic forces and self-deceptions at work which lead to devils like Trump and Koch bros to thrive.
  8. Do not confuse 20th century socialist revolutions with stage Green. They were not Green but Red and Blue in many cases, as in Soviet Russia or Maoist China.
  9. You can use google to search the blog. "site:actualized.org/insights/ xxxxxx" For book list use ctrl+F
  10. @nowimhere Sounds like your butthole is immune to God. This happens for some people. Not sure why. Too much darkness for the light to enter Or just due to genetic differences and so forth. You could also try sub-lingual. Might work better for you than plugging. Otherwise just stick to vaping. I'm amazed though how well plugging works for me with all psychedelics. It's just perfect for me. The only substance it hasn't worked for is NN-DMT.
  11. Call me self-biased, but I can't help but love anyone who validates the length of my videos
  12. I'm liking Zizek's political analysis more and more. He has a very sharp understanding of these issues:
  13. If you drink tap water, you're a fool. You think it's free of heavy metals & other junk? Ha! Imagine filling your brain with trace heavy metals for 40 years. Don't be surprised when your health goes to hell.
  14. @TrynaBeTurquoise But the deeper question is, why are you so obsessed with understanding the words of a 2000 year old man when you cannot even verify if his words were accurately written down? You see the deeper problem here? Your approach is so hopelessly indirect. God is sitting right here! Yet you turn to some 2000 year old book written by we know not who. It is as though you are in the middle of having sex, you stop, and you ask your partner to watch some porn with you instead because you want to know what sex is. The key to spirituality is directness. The enemy of spirituality is indirectness. Cut out all the middlemen. They cannot truly help you.
  15. Yeah, in space. Just spit-balling. Someone's gotta think up new technologies.
  16. Why play these abstract mind games? Just realize: You are God! You are Jesus! The end. People make this shit so complicated.
  17. It's not about stopping enjoying it. It's about finding a higher purpose in your life, something that you find more meaningful. You don't need to stop enjoying porn. And there's nothing wrong with enjoying porn either. Porn is just part of the beauty of reality. Be grateful it exists.
  18. It means you imagine it. It exists only because you create it. If you stop creating it, it will stop existing. This is not a matter of belief. It is a matter of becoming conscious of how you are creating it. For example, you are not yet conscious of how you are creating your own brith. You have confused the idea of your birth for some real event outside your own mind. It doesn't even occur to you that your birth could be imaginary. In other words, you are basically insane, imagining stuff like a psychotic. The most importing thing you are imagining is that you are not imagining but that its all real.
  19. Stop confusing yourself with that human body. You are not the human body, you are EVERYTHING.
  20. You only need to block like 1% of the sun. It wouldn't be big deal. Tis better than 20 ft of sea level rise.
  21. You gotta be careful because some of them are so screwed in the head he will rape your daughter and slit her throat while you a preparing him dinner. Some people are just deeply fucked up to the point where you will not reform them. Being nice doesn't always work. You guys who follow me will largely be okay. But there a millions who listen to Joe Rogan without thinking carefully about epistemic issues and they can get brainwashed. Alex Jones is basically a cult leader. He is dangerous.
