People who criticize Lex are like people who criticize white bread. Lex has his vanilla style and he does fine work overall. His job is not to grill people.

Because I don't need everyone to be a leftist. This expectation is such a disease on the left.

No I shouldn't. Criticizing a centrist moderate for not being radical like you want is peak cringe.

Lex isn't pandering, he's just trying to be Larry King. Larry King's whole shtick was to interview everyone under the sun and not challenge them, not judge them. Larry King could interview Hitler and ask him friendly softball questions. And there is value in that. Everyone wants Lex to be a radical, but Lex is an extreme centrist. It is not Lex's role to be a radical. That is his chosen style for his shown. Lex is the new Larry King.

I have very profound videos planned, they just aren't necessarily about God.

I get you. But there is only so much new stuff I can say about God. I can't pump out a new video every month with crazy new structures of God. It took me years to discover Alien Consciousness and I don't know if I will ever discover anything as radical or profound ever again. Just 1 such discovery in a lifetime is Nobel prize level work. So you need to temper your expectations.

Exactly. Infinity gets you everything for free. That's why it's magical.

You just know some MAGA is gonna stick his dick in that thing. Hyper-reality, indeed.

@Davino It's clear you're doing some serious contemplating. Very good. Don't worry, I will still cover many practical mundane topics like success and relationships and such. I will cover any topic that is useful and worthwhile to talk about relative to personal dev and sense-making.

Wokeness does go too far sometimes. Legal battles for misgendering are silly.

Yes. That's one of the limits of PM. But also, you should question SD and ultimately see how it is a construct and how it limits your mind. SD can be taken from grand narrative to micro-narrative, one of many.

Lies and BS. No way Repubs legalize it. I don't have a prob with Lex's character.

Yes, I will post this on my blog soon.

Because that's the most intelligent way for it to be. When you realize consciousness literally has no limits, then you realize you can have infinite intelligent design for free. And when you have it for free, why would you settle for anything less?

@Past-Philosopher-562 Dude, you gotta do what is right for you, not what I am doing with my channel in general. Think independently. Pick and choose videos from my work which apply to your situation, values, and goals.

It is not clear to me what you are asking. Using SD and 9 Stages model you should know where you are and what the next stage is for you. This then gives you a good idea of what to work towards and which traps to avoid.

Politicians should be horses, pulling us into the future!

It sure is.

I am being more ruthless with myself in trimming the fat, the fluff, and the grandstanding.

That's the problem with all of JP's points. They are so biased and one-sided. Imagine if I made a video exclusively listing all the evils of modernism and premodernism.

Dating vs relationship are different skillsets which both need dedicated practice and experience. Each can grow you in different ways. With a relationship it's easy to fall into a rut and just wallow in comfort and not grow. Dating forces you to stay sharp.

@Thought Art These early PMs were strange blokes with radical views and lifestyles. But it's not like pedophiles don't exist in the pre-modern churches. This is why I stress insight and Pure Philosophy, free from human figures and even free of historical schools of thought. What matters is the validity of the insight.

Doesn't seem out of character for Foucault

I agree. Should have pulled funding long ago.

@Nemra You ungrateful peasant!
