What if? We are living it. The 1920's are known as the age of the Robber Barons. The 2020's will be known as the age of the Techbro oligarchs capturing government and poisoning the minds of the public for profit. Welcome to Peak Orange.

@OBEler America's first UFO craft was supposedly recovered from fascist Italy.

TechBro billionaires are just libertarian egomaniacs. There's nothing mysterious or profound about their politics. It's so transparently self-serving and intellectually bankrupt.

They are here to remind you of who you will become if you don't take the work seriously, if you convince yourself that you already got it figured. Do not assume that people who associate themselves with my work are actually doing the work. Many are not. They use the my work to deepen their self-deception.

Narcs care about that stuff a lot. Once you have all the money in the world, what do you do? All that's left to chase is attention, approval, praise. Attention and praise can be a greater high than money, because it makes the ego feel validated in all its self-deceptions. What Musk really wants is to convince himself his worldview is correct. And the best way to do that is to enroll millions of people to lick you up and down. Fame is one hell of a trip.

The real reason Musk left the left is because the left is about redistribution of power, and Musk wants to be free to wield power at his whim. As Musk accumulated power he saw that the left was going to challenge him while the right was not, since the right welcomes authoritarians.

Well said.

Awakening and development are distinct things. One could be awake but not developed. Furthermore, political development and maturity is its own special line of development. So one could be well developed in certain ways but a political idiot. Most spiritual people are political idiots because serious political understanding requires a decade or more of study, research, and contemplation. And most spirituality discourages people from serious thinking.

There is not enough information or context here for me to make a judgment on.

I have undertaken Leo's Geography Challenge, and I encourage ya'll to join me. Post your updates and share your favorite documentaries here.

The opposite is the case. He makes wild, unhinged, ridiculius, scientifically false claims all the time.

Hey, ya'll, I need your help! I want to create a comprehensive list of video examples of prototypical stage Green thinking. This is not meant to humiliate or demonize stage Green. It's meant to be an educational tool for people learning about Spiral Dynamics. So towards that end, scour Youtube and find all the videos you can which exhibit stage Green thinking. Try to find videos which are short and sweet. The more diversity we can display here, the better. Try to find examples from various cultures: Europe, Middle East, Asia, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, Africa, South America, etc. We will create a mega-thread like this for every stage in the Spiral, from Red to Turquoise. But here, let's just focus on Green. Each week I will start a new mega-thread topic for the next stage. Do not start a political debate in this thread! It is not our goal here to defend our personal political positions or to judge any stage, but simply to compile examples. Thanks for your help! I'm excited to see what kind of juicy stuff you dig up. Try to be selective with your choices. This can turn into a really cool list.

Well, yeah, in-field video is legally suspect. You are filming girls without consent. Pretty sure that is illegal in plenty of places. JulienGate drew alot of scrutiny on RSD. JulienGate is basically why Owen had to even ditch the RSD name. The RSD brand name itself became toxic. So it was more than just in-field. And most of Owen's videos did not have in-field. Public in-field video came pretty lame in RSD history.

@Yimpa

Slander? Stop this ridiculous gaslighting.

There is no constructive criticism of a con-artist. You are delusional if you think you can help or change Trump.

We are just being responsible adults, telling the kids not to play with explosives. But you kids are preplexed by this.

No. It's just obvious that no good will come from Trump's degeneracy. Those hoping for good from a con-artist are fools. We are just pointing out the obvious.

Something is always hidden

It's not just a function of momentum. Actual permanent skills are built. But momentum is important. One of the best guys in game who I know tells me that if he stops going out for some months, it takes him weeks to rebuild his momentum. Your interpretation is incorrect. I haven't gone out for a year. I could go out tonight and my skills will still be solid. A bit rusty. In fact, thanks to consciousness work my skills will have deepened without even going out because I understand reality deeper.

Good! It's time to wake up. Too much safety for too long has put everyone to sleep.

Owen had to delete all his old videos because he had an inside scoop from people at YT that they were gonna ban his accounts thanks to JulienGate blowback and all the toxic masculinity which was bad for YT's ad business. YT had to crack down on hardcore pickup content because it was too sexist and YT was going mainstream. YT also cracked down on stuff like race IQ, which is why they banned Molynueax. YT had to crack down on the most toxic channels to keep the platform ad-friendly. You can still find old vids through torrent sites. In the end it was Owen's fault for not reigning in the toxic masculinity of RSD. He allowed it to fester into a cancer. It was the Wild West of sexism, misogyny, egotism, and devilry.

I don't know. Hillary won the popular vote at least.

@Hardkill You're taking all this a little too seriously.

Touche. But at least she knew how to kiss Democrat ass.
