You don't literally need to look in a mirror to recognize God. The mirror is just a good example of physical self-reflection. But you can recognize God just staring at a wall or a sunset. Don't get fixated on the mirror. Although, of course, you could meditate while looking in a mirror. Your body is God but God is not limited to the body, God is the entire visual field.

No. I mean recogntion like with the mirror. Remembering is a seperate thing.

I'm making this thread to collect every important video or source of information I find about understanding Israel's deceptive behavior. I've found dozens upon dozens of important videos, too many to fit on the blog. So I'm going to keep adding them here. Feel free to add your own. This is not a thread about debating the Israel-Gaza war. I want to build up a playlist of quality videos for people who want a deep understanding of Israel's deceptive behavior -- the underbelly, if you will. This playlist does not focus on understanding Hamas or Arab terrorism or the latest news about the Gaza conflict (since we already have a thread for that). Warning, this list will be pretty negative as it focuses on uncovering deception, propaganda, bias, ethnic cleansing, war crimes, and deconstructing illusions. I see a lot of deception and bias about Israel in mainstream western media which I want to dispel. That's what this playlist is about. This is part of my study of self-deception and self-bias. Sorry if this doesn't seem fair, but this is what I needed to study to unravel the deceptions. This is part of my own sense-making journey. Feel free to discuss any of the videos or share your own. Be mindful not to share low quality, hateful, or misleading/untruthful material. The point here is not be deliberately negative but to gain a deeper understanding of the Israel situation. I will delete any low quality material posted here.

The internet has changed a lot. Also, I don't mind the shorts format on platforms that are intended for it. YouTube is not designed for shorts. The shorts on Instagram are way better than on YouTube.

She will feel whatever you feel. Quality over quantity. 1 great approach is worth 10 crappy ones. Speak slower. You are speaking too fast.

That's too long to list. It is easier to list the stupid things I say.

But you can read 3x as many books via audio. So even if you miss 30% of the content, you're ahead. Most books don't warrant such close attention. Most books are shallow. And if you really want, you can listen to audiobooks with 100% focus.

That's one of the smartest things I heard him say.

You just need Pure Philosophy.

Palestine is not viable. Israel will just take it all over. It is raw power. You have to understand when you lost the war. Palestine will not defeat Israel. And Israel will not grow a conscience anytime soon.

Look at Elon Musk. The evil he causes isn't intentional, it's just his juvenile worldview. Evil people think they are doing good.

I heard Jared Leto called, "our Russell Brand".

Western bias. But also because Israel has other redeeming qualities like a tech sector and democracy. You can't argue that Palestinians aren't super backwards developmentally. Their religious extremists are more extreme. Say what you will about Netanyahu, but he is no religious fanatic. He is a very rational, pragmatic guy. Atheists can relate to him. They can't relate to Yahya Sinwar.

I think that stems from his atheism. Atheists like Sam Harris and Chris Hitchens tend to be very anti-anything-Islam. Destiny also falls in that camp.

I'm just guessing, but I think his view is that the Israelis are just so much more developed than the Palestians that the Israelis should be sided with. Bill Maher has a similar view. He just sees the Palestinians as too backward, too medieval, too ideological, too anti-Western. It's a very simplistic but pragmatic position, not a moral one. Most Americans simply cannot see any validity in Islamic terrorism. Terrorism breaks some people's minds. I doubt Destiny needs to be paid. He just believes it.

I know. So what? He is a MAGA voter. I could say the same about Joe Rogan, if only he realized MAGA is a cult I don't see the difference
