As a matter of fact it can. Imagine a truly sinister demonic consciousness whose whole purpose for existence is to rape and torture people. Consciousness is flexible enough to create such a creature. Whether it exists on Earth is irrelevant. And in fact such twisted minds have existed on Earth. They are just rare.

As I said above, you can frame anyone's actions as coming from lack. So this is not a strong point. Do you love self-actualization? Then you are coming from a sense of lack. See how that works?

There are what we could call stages of moral development which addresses what you are saying. A vegan is at a higher level of moral development than a rapist. But then there are even higher levels which I am trying to guide you towards.

I never said it was a bad thing. But moralizing to others becomes a trap. When you reify your judgments and moral outrage that becomes an existential-level mistake which limits the development of your mind.

Partying till 6am? That's gonna screw you up. And yes, it will get worse as you age.

Nope. You could rape just for the joy of it. And furthermore, you could frame any value as coming from lack. Why do value love? Because you lack it. This is not a quality analysis.

Of course you can be a vegan for non-moral reasons.

I don't quite get the point. Just do whatever you want. You will anyways despite all your moralizing.

There is no cure for lack of ambition. Some people, in fact most people, simply have very low ambition. Ambition is a personality trait. But also, if you feel your life lacks meaning, that means you aren't really satisfied with your life as you claim. Deep down you know there's more to be had but you haven't yet come up with a vision of what that would look like. Besides ambition what's needs is imagination. To imagine a really new and exciting future for yourself.

Consciousness is way more flexible than that. Your values could be almost anything. Rape could be your top value.

Mars Attacks? Lol

Of course if you go to bed at 6am that will screw up your whole sleep schedule. That's not "sensitive", that's just how sleep cycles work.

Yes, of course, however Love is such a radical thing that it becomes the opposite of coventional morality. Because you have to love all the "evil" stuff, like a crocodile eating your children. Religion has tried to teach love, but it always devolves into judgment, shaming, hatred, demonizing, moralizing, normativity, and closedmindness. Because a finite mind is constitutionally incapable of serious Love. And thus conventional morality is born. The problem with telling people that "morality is being loving" is that they will say, "Yes! And that's why we should torture pedophiles, because we love our children. And we should bomb Gaza because we love the Jews. And we should assassinate Putin because he is the next Hitler. And we should steal the next election because we love America. And we should turn America into a Christian theocracy because Christ is love. And if you oppose us, we will destroy you, because you stand against love." That is the morality crocodile.

But that's exactly what leftists suck at. So I won't be holding my breath.

You cannot escape thinking no matter how much you meditate. And by default your thinking will become filled with fantasies and self-deceptions, such as the fantasy that all you need to do to be intelligent is stop thinking. But this isn't really the case because it grossly reduces and oversimplifies life. You cannot survive without thinking. So the strategy of not thinking is actually unintelligent. The proper thing is to learn to think in very careful ways.

You know you can do that with a YT prime subscription. It's worth it. I listen to most videos without watching the screen and it saves me a lot of hassle. YT is actually a better "podcast" app than Spotify.

Be careful not to smear all Incels as violent people. Most of them are not. This is like saying mentally ill people are violent, when few are.

Morality is the crocodile.

This kind of analysis is not going to work. Psychedelics affect people too differently to draw such simplistic "scientific" and rational conclusions.

To be honest, GI docs can be aweful and worse than useless.

@Scholar If you insist on defining morality as merely preferences then you will come up with wierd conclusions. According to your absurd logic a crocodile is moral or immoral because it prefers flesh over pineapples. See what trouble you got yourself into?

Sounds like crocodiles are living in your head rent free.

Sit down and examine what morality is. Think it through. It's something the mind spins up. You had no morality as a child. You had to invent it.

Eagle is a high attainment. Perhaps you're more like a winged rat
