True moral development is to stop moralism and judging because you see it is limiting your intelligence. I do not equate development with material only. I am saying Israelis are more morally developed. So it is worse than you hoped.

That's politics. It's not a fair game. I see you leftists suffering from your own moralism. But no matter how much I say it, you don't wanna listen.

When I say something negative about a topic you like, you guys love to assume I got some personal bias against it, but I am just speaking objectively.

You are way out of line. Watch yourself.

I have nothing against China.

If you got beef with Natasha, look in the mirror because she is great. We are lucky to have her.

Maybe I will some day. But I got bigger fish to fry than travel.

Of course it bothers me is there's bad behavior on the forum.

There is no escape from The Game

Nope. But I been in the USA for 30 years and never seen a child molested in front of me.

Natasha is an angel from down under.

The only way to learn the game is by playing the game. Not by reading books.

He forced my hand with his behavior. If I didn't act I had people threatening to quit.

Going to China is not going to show you all the IP they steal or children they molest. These issues are beyond a personanl vacation.

The problem is see with him is that all of his reports are second hand, not direct experience. So it's at the level of belief for him. Maybe I am wrong. But belief on this topic can never be good enough. You gotta see it to know it.

I am always improving my behavior. That's the point of spiritual work. You are not the only one here. I am being vague about Dave out of respect for his privacy. He is having some personal issues which he is trying to resolve. I have no beef with him.

That had nothing to do with disagreeing with me. He was having personal behavior problems that were causing alarm for others. Mods needs to reflect certain values.

Stop provoking it.

Sure, but don't you see that the way you phrased it will cause him to double-down on thinking his premise is true? Don't make people feel bad for disagreeing with me.

Don't attack him. Disagreement with me is fine.

What's that?

Because that's the vibe that guy gave off. Yes, it does sound awful.

Because weird things are afoot:

I am too alpha to keep receipts.

@Joseph Maynor You are a case in point. I let you back in the forum despite our past disagreements. I am not asking anyone to agree with everything I say.
