@PsychedelicEagle I can introduce you to a horse with perfect blood panels

Netherlands went pretty far in the past. Germany and Spain are often dangerous. Germany can crush Brazil. Top picks: Spain, France, Germany, Brazil, Argentina, UK

@Someone here Anthropic will sooner go bankrupt than I will.

I have and I do criticize academic philosophy sharply. Most academic philosophers are science-brained. Their philosophy is just a thin cover for science. Also because most people aren't into philosophy, but everyone believes that science is the truth. Deconstructing academic philosophy is not really necessary. Academic philosophy does not run your mind. Science does. Yes it's easy for me, however, this is a public service. This is what the public needs to hear. I am creating an entire life project of deconstructing science. Because science needs it! I am doing what science should have done but can't do because they are too conflicted inside the system. The only one who can make this critique properly is someone outside the system and independent, like me. If I don't do it, it will take a hundred years for someone else to come along and do it. I'm doing it to advance science. That's the irony of this whole thing. Scientists don't even understand that I am helping them. It is like giving bitter medicine to your cat. He doesn't understand it's good for him even though it tastes so bitter. I am experimenting.

I should sell you AI underwear.

I sympathize with you if this thing was really a cult. But from the video I remember watching some years ago of yours, I did honestly feel like the dirt was missing. This was probably just a matter of communication skill. I'm sure from your POV, it's obviously a cult, but that didn't come across as clearly as you imagined in your first video. That doesn't mean I am denying your thing was a cult, just that it is not obvious to me from your video. When you make such a serious accusation publicly, you have to lay out a clear, definitive case, which can be difficult to do, especially if you're not skilled in this type of communication, or just lack the evidence. I simply don't have enough information to know if your thing was truly a cult. But generally I am inclined to believe you. I am certainly not defending this organization I don't even know. I can see how getting tangible dirt on a cult can be difficult. It's kind of like a rape accusation.

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.

There is no such thing as a good cult. A cult is bad structurally, from the start. That's why Actualized.org is not a cult. I don't control any of you people. You are free to do whatever you want as long as you don't violate Forum Guidelines on this forum. Outside this forum I don't care what you do as long as you don't annoy me.

You can't prevent people from being irresponsible fools. You are expecting something that can't be expected of large groups of humans.

I have given up hope on Brazil. They keep losing. I can still taste their humiliating loss to Germany a decade ago. If Brazil loses that stupidly again, they are dead to me.

I have serious work to do. I cannot babysit thousands of people to ensure they all do their homework. Most won't do it anyways. I am developing serious courses and books that will guide people through the entire epistemic process. But that takes a lot of time and work to create. On the blog I make statements and claims. A blog cannot be a course in epistemology. The blog is me throwing out insights that will be more fully explained in courses and books. If Albert Einstein had a blog, it would not teach you how to do basic physics. For that you enroll in a university course. And Albert Einstein would not be prodding you to do your homework.

In practice many people flunk out of university.

@UnbornTao I expect you to contemplate and to do philosophy. I teach advanced things and I'm not going to keep repeating myself. I expect everyone here to be intelligent enough to know they need to do philosophical work. If you are not doing the philosophical work then that's on you. And I should be chastising you for that, not you me. You are like a child crying about other kids who don't do their homework. I am not going to force anyone here to do homework. If you don't do the homework, tough luck. This is like a university. Nobody in university holds your hand and forces you do homework. In university, if you don't force yourself to do homework you will just flunk out. That's how advanced intellectual work goes. Everyone is free to flunk out of Actualized.org.

Let's get a thread going that showcases the deep intelligence of survival in nature. This helps people see the intelligence and sneakiness of survival in the human realm. Try to post examples not merely of survival, but the intelligent, deceptive, and sneaky nature of survival.

What it?

I'm not sure. It's a deep issue. Requires lots of careful contemplation.

It's hard to adapt to chronic health problems. Or to be happy. When your health fails you will see how much happiness requires health. Intelligence cannot save you from losing your health.

I reject the notion that space needs to be bent at all. That is still a limit. Just leap to wherever in space you want to be! Does your PlayStation need to bend space in order to teleport you from one corner of Skyrim to the next? Do you really believe your PlayStation is more powerful than Reality? Haha!

How is that conformity?? True shit is inherently funny. If you lived alone on a tropical island, you would still find true things funny. God does not need others to laugh at Itself. The funny comes for free.

Aliens saw us in the bathroom and made a vow to never contact us again. Aliens came to Earth and did the Homer Simpson backs away into the bushes meme.

That's a classic.

More like, with AI the science bros are like: "Look! This PC can talk so AGI is here!"

Actually it does. That means light speed limit is bullshit. There should be a way to hop between space using advanced consciousness. The idea that aliens are limited to light speed is so myopic. These are limits of the human mind, not Reality at large.
