More like Actualized Premium/Prime. But it isn't a subscription. I basically can't afford to run Actualized on free videos alone. I need a Premium paid portion because YouTube cut about 90% of my business over the last 10 years. YouTube ain't what it used to be in the good ol' day before AI slop and clip farmers.

I plan to post about half of the 3-minute videos to Instagram slowly over the next year. I can't just dump hundreds of videos on Instagram. That's why I created the Vault. So you guys could access them all right now. There was no other way to give you access to 338 videos. And posting that many videos is a major pain in my ass. My hands are sore just from assembling them all into the Vault.

I am curious how many lectures/classes does Peterson Academy have in total? Do they even have enough classes to equal a 4-year major? For even a single major? I doubt it. Even one major requires a lot of classes that JP's buddies would not do the work to cover.

By life I mean this experience you have of being a human -- all of your memories. After the human experience ends that is no longer life. There is still consciousness but it is no longer life. Death is Infinite Consciousness.

@Natasha Tori Maru That seems like fair criticism. "Paid premium lecture service" is exactly what it is. I see Peterson Academy more like The Teaching Company than a university. That's how JP should have framed it. Framing it as an alternative to university is silly because it cannot be anywhere close to that. These are lectures for casual self-study, not a serious major in a field.

I never promised content for Patreon. Not sure where you got this idea. Patreon was a donation thing. That money goes into supporting my general YT channel. All the content that I might post to Patreon I just release for free on my blog. So I don't feel any empty promises were made there. There will be at least 500 clips in this vault. Plus other longer videos. So at least 25 hours of content. At least 50% of it will be exclusive. Everything in the vault is 100% new recorded content. There are zero clips taken from my YouTube videos. Everything in the Vault was recorded in the last month. After I fill this Vault up to 500 clips / 25 hours, I might create a paid Vault Part 2 with another 500 clips / 25 hours. These vaults are sold for a one-time fee. This is not an annual subscription. I will record at least 1000 clips/shorts in the next year. How exactly it will be organized and monetized is still to be determined. My basic idea is to package 500 clips per Vault part plus some longer videos too.

To clarify my position: 1) I am not saying 100% that he was killed. But it is reasonable to suspect foul play. 2) If he was killed, he was not killed for arms dealing but for knowing too much dirt on powerful people. The kind of dirt and blackmail material he definitely had was severe enough that killing him feels reasonable and warranted.

Hasan is problematic in that he radicalizes leftists to be even more dogmatic in their far left views. This makes leftists feel like they are superior to everyone else in an unhealthy way. Youngsters who go down the Hasan rabbit hole will fall into leftists dogma, arrogance, and closedmindedness. Hasan's community is a far left Marxist echo-chamber.

There wouldn't be a life left if you were fully conscious of Infinity. Life requires finite consciousness. That's what life is.

I spoke to Connor because he emailed me saying he was going to kill himself. I tried to help him but he just used it to get clicks. I have done more to educate people about how actual cults work than anyone calling me a cult leader. Such is the absurdity and ignorance of mankind. Cults are antithetical to everything I teach and stand for. Actualized is not even remotely a cult. And it never will be as long as I am alive. We are less of a cult than the comment sections of the YouTuber trolls who try to call us a cult. Have you seen the comment sections of YouTubers like Professor Dave? They exhibit more conformity and cult behavior than anything found on this forum. They act like mindless zombies.

@Natasha Tori Maru What did they get banned for?

We have to be a bit careful because leftists can have an axe to grind against JP. So I am leery of fake students who join his Academy just to trash it.

Classic example of self-bias.

If you surrendered to it entirely you'd be dead.

Sam's denial of the obvious ethnic cleansing of Gaza by focusing on Hasan is the real issue. Right wing Israelis are certainly genocidal. And they run Israeli policy. Sam refuses to take responsiblity for how the West causes terrorism.

Hasan is problematic, but no one on the left is as bad as on the right.

I want someone to make an AI-generated song about slop. Call it The Slop song. It needs to be a deep, soulful song -- similar to Mad World -- about how slop is taking over the world.

This guy is a worldclass bullshit artist. Found Jesus as soon as the allegations came in the mail.

I don't want to generalize so broadly.

The problem is structural because he likes to speculate, prognosticate, and spin narratives. This cannot be epistemically sound. The more he does it, the deeper into self-deception he and his students will sink. He is not being epistemically responsible. He like to make imaginative leaps because it gets him more views than just not-knowing.

Opening this up cause we'll be seeing a lot of these corrupt MAGA perverts crawling out of the shadows over the next 4 years and it's good to have a catalog of all them and their crimes in one place. https://apnews.com/article/matt-gaetz-congress-ethics-report-538cb5387bf95925245bf87fa6b1adcb Post all examples of MAGA corruption here.

Moral of the story: Jesus was a mean asshole, not some Christian saint.

You should not start any higher than 10mg on a new chemical. Start by testing 10mg and see how it feels. You never know how sensitive you are.

It is not so simple. There is not a single receptor for pure consciousness. KOR is pure consciousness for me. But so are cannabinoids which are not even listed on that chart. There are many pathways to pure higher consciousness. And it varies person to person.
