  1. Technically speaking pure formless consciousness/awareness is nothing, so you will never "find it" as a thing so to speak. Nothing is aware of everything. Even more directly: Nothing = Everything So of course you cannot seperate them out. When you are Awake and you look at a chair, you see the chair as Absolute Truth, self-illuminating. Eventually you will see that chair itself as Nothing.
  2. Stop complicating things. There can only exist ONE thing ever. It is everything you see. Call it whatever you want. But it has to be ONE, with no other. When you say there is awareness and also consciousness, that's two things. So you know it must be wrong.
  3. Well, if voters don't like it, they can unelect her in 2 years. In the end a Senator must work based on her values, not popular outcries. Representative democracy does not mean that Reps are slaves of the voters. This is a common misconception. This is actually wrong. Reps should exercise independent judgment because voters are shallow and have narrow interests.
  4. Awareness is not a "thing". These nonduality teachers are teaching bullshit. You are Consciousness. Consciousness is Absolute Truth. The end. It is a mistake to try to do some reductionist deconstruction of your conscious field, trying seperate out perceptions from "awareness". That will not result in God-Realization. These people do not know what God is. They are parroting nondual dogma that they have brainwashed themselves with. Nonduality is just brainwashing at this point.
  5. What is a chair? In fact you do not know what anything is. This problem isn't limited to life. The only way to fully answer a what-is question is via Awakening.
  6. 5-MeO-DMT has been used in vilca snuffs for hundreds of years. Smoking is a modern invention.
  7. People knew she was a moderate. And Arizona is a purple state so she actually fits that.
  8. Hi-five!
  9. Careful calling moderate politicians traitors. She's simply a moderate/centrist. Progressives love to demonize centrists even more than Republicans.
  10. @OBEler I understand why police shoot in the chest. This is irrelevant to the taser issue. I have seen plenty of videos where a guy with a knife could have been easily and safely disarmed with a taser, but the cop either didn't have a taser or didn't use one. I don't think it's excusable for a cop not to have a taser.
  11. @Strannik It's real simple: You are Absolute Truth.
  12. You are assuming there is a Tom. But maybe you imagined him.
  13. Every social media platform combats and takes down thousands of child porn every month. If not, they would be overrun with it. Of course they don't catch all of it. These debates about moderation are so silly because people find one example out of 10 million pieces of content and then use it to argue the whole system is broken. You can cherrypick data like that all day long when your platform deals with 100s of millions of pieces of new content each month. It's the same problem as demonizing all of police for one bad arrest video out of 1000s. These kinds of critiques are not done in good faith by people who genuinely care about understanding the challenges of policing and moderation. This stuff is extremely difficult and no one is acknowledging that. If you ran these platforms I guarantee that you would not have a better solution because mankind has not invented it yet. There is not a single human alive on this planet who has a solution to the moderation problem. It's a problem as big as human cloning. So to sit there and criticize is extremely foolish and disingenuous. It's like criticizing astronauts on the moon from your couch.
  14. Here's a 2-shot taser solution every cop should have: https://www.axon.com/products/taser-x2 Also, reloading a taser is not that slow. It reloads as fast as a pistol. I have one.
  15. Awareness is just Absolute Truth. Absolute Truth is self-aware. What are you guys arguing about?
  16. I have no qualms merging with demons. Demons are as legit part of consciousness as anything else, and you are ALL of it. But Infinity of Gods is not demons. Demons would be literal demons. This girls doesn't understand that I would have no problem kissing a demon. Demons, devils, Hitler, aliens, pedophiles -- it's all God -- and you will merge with all of it when you Awaken.
  17. @Karmadhi If you do pickup seriously you will experience growth like no one naturally does. And it's not just limited to getting sex. You are looking at this way too narrowly. Most of the growth will be outside the domain of sex.
  18. 1) JP was not outright banned. He was simply told to delete his trolling tweet and he would have full account access. He refused. He said, "I would rather DIE than delete that tweet." He choose the ban for himself. 2) His deliberate deadnaming of Page was a violation of objective Twitter terms of use. This wasn't even a grey area. He was given a clear reason for his strike. 3) If JP wasn't being an asshole, no one would censor him for his views. You have to look at whether people are actually violating terms of use of the platform. That's usually what people get banned for. People do not get banned just for being unlikable. Someone can be unlikable and simply not get banned because they don't tweet anything that violates terms of use. Hitler would be allowed on Twitter as long as he didn't post anything violating terms of use. And this is not a mistake. Just like with policing, the police should not arrest you unless you break a clear law. They should not arrest people just for being unlikable in some vague general sense. Nor should Twitter. You cannot judge these things in the abstract. You must look at the actual things these people are posting and see what violates terms of use. If someone is posting Hunter Biden's dick pics or denying that vaccines work, that violates terms of use regardless of who they are. That's a very complex issue.
  19. Conservatives don't actually love Absolute Truth, what they love is their ideology. They have confused ideology and human concepts with Absolute Truth.
  20. That's why you have a taser in one hand and a gun in the other. It's not hard to pull a pistol after you fire your taser. This should be done in cases were the criminal is far away and clearly has no firearm.
  21. Pure nonsense. Use your own brain rather than quoting some profressor. Plenty of vidoes on this channel show how effective tasers are in a knife situation
  22. 1) It is not at all clear that disinformation from left was less removed than from the right. This is just an assumption you have. It has not been validated. 2) You must keep in mind that disinformation from right and left is not symmetrical. The right spread a lot more disinformation so under a just system they would get more removal. Covid denial was largely right wing. Most conspiracy theories are also right wing. The left does not have people like Alex Jones or Tucker Carlson or Sean Hannity or Nick Fuentes or Kanye West. 3) It is impossible for a platform to delete all misinformation perfectly. You are living in a dream. 4) Moderation mistakes will always exist, just like police mistakes will exist. 5) Any group of moderators will have bias. You think Elon Musk and his team will not be biased? You are kidding yourself. 6) The notion that Twitter will go unmoderated is complete nonsense. It will always be heavily moderated, the question is merely in which ways and by who? 7) You must evaluate each moderation decision on a case by case basis. You cannot just assume the moderation was unwarranted. Many of these peoplr who got downranked probably posted plenty of bad stuff, disinform, racism, hate, trolling, etc. They are not innocent politcal actors, they are professional propagandists.
