Eliminate plastic dishes, utensiles, cups. Replace aluminum baking pans with steel. Don't use aluminum foil for cooking. Don't microwave food in plastic. Be careful with chemical cleaners, sprays, weed-killer, bug spray, etc. Be careful with makeup, lots of heavy metals there. Be careful with certain spices, lots of heavy metals. Be careful with any powdered foods. Be careful with baby food. Be careful with pet food. Be careful with talc powder. Be careful with fast food wrappers and containers. Be careful handling receipts, they are covered in toxins. Be careful with sunscreen, full of toxins. Be careful with non-MRNA vaccines, may contain mercury. Be careful with seafood, especially anything you fish out of a lake yourself. Be careful with gasoline fumes, smog, exhaust, pollution. Never live within a mile of a major highway. Never buy flourescent light bulbs, they are extremely toxic. Never get any metal into your mouth at the dentist. Do not get any metal crowns, all-ceramic only. No metal filings. Never accept routine flouride treatments at the dentist. Be careful with birth control pills and devices. Upgrade all your soaps, cleaners, and detergents to all-natural ones. Upgrade your shampoo and bodywash. Avoid food coloring. Avoid artificial sweetners like Splenda and aspartame.

And that is a real problem. Conservatives are not wrong to be freaking out over that.

When all else fails, just go to your local zoo and chat up the baboons.

Yeah, but still...

1) I never called it bad per se. 2) "Bad" here is not a moral judgment, it just means maladaptive. Trans people are not bad but they are maladaptive in that they suffer from their own confusion and have problems getting laid and starting families. Also, not being able to reproduce is maladapative by definition of evolution. Healthy human civilization requires successful reproduction in sufficient quantity. So if 50% of the population turned gay, yes, that would be very "bad". Imagine the military develops a "nuclear bomb" you can drop on a country that turns half the population gay. Would you be okay with that? Or would you consider it an existential threat?

That's an Olympic style leap.

Good luck with that.

No one enjoys a criminal rape other than the rapist. It certainly does, as long as I am alive and know about it. Solipsism does not deny that I dream meaning. Yes, I dream everything and therefore stuff has meaning for me within my dream. Just because something is my dream does not mean you get to tell me how I should feel about it or that I must stop dreaming. I can dream as deep as I want and enjoy it. I am under no obligation to ignore my own dream. If I want to cry at my daughter's death, that's up to me.

Yes, but also beyond that. The traditional idea of solipsism is not complete because it doesn't not at all communicate the radical nature of how Mind constructs reality and what God-consciousness is.

This guy is talking about "other brains", so already clearly full of shit. All his logic and facts are figments of imagination. There is no escaping imagination, ever. And the fact that he cannot see that shows he doesn't understand solipsism. You can mind-meld with whoever you want. That's your imagination at work.

I am repulsive enough to normies as it is. No need to gatekeep me, I have already done that work for you free of charge. It's baked into the cake. You're welcome

Yes, you will not be able to sleep on it. It is a drug designed to prevent narcoleptics from falling asleep. You must take it early in the day.

That's the point. You will never find such a line. It's a complex multifactorial matter. Chemistry also drives beliefs, and beliefs drive chemistry. Most people don't even believe that Teflon is toxic.

We don't have it in the US.

Not true! Think about it: If Tate promotes rape and then I have daughter in the future who gets raped by one of his idiot followers, I will have to deal with that shit. And I don't want to deal with it. Now, you might say, but if solipsism is true your daughter didn't suffer from the rape. But that doesn't change the fact that the rape traumatized her and now she will act damaged for life and I gotta deal with it. In the end you cannot escape dealing with shit that comes from evil behavior. It always comes back to hurt you. No one sane person wants to live in a world where rape is normalized and common. Solipsism has no bearing on this. Because people will misunderstand it. Your ideas of solipsism are not the same as God. But God is a very solipsistic thing.

How dumb can this AI be? Has it never seen one of my Halloween hats?

Of course

You are not appreciating how seriously pesticides, heavy metals, and other modern chemicals like Teflon affect the healthy function of animal bodies. If you roast some almonds for your pet parrot on a Teflon pan, feeding him those nuts will kill him. That's how poisonous Teflon is. Yet mothers just cook their food on Teflon for years without a care in the world. Then they act surprised that their children have mental disorders. At least half of human sickness and disorders are caused by modern chemistry. We live in the Age of Poison. Nobody even knows yet how bad it is because it's all hidden under corporate lobbying. If people really knew, all these food and chemical companies would be sued to death.

Nothing preposterous about it. Read this: https://news.berkeley.edu/2010/03/01/frogs/ But it's not so much baby food as it is adult food which the mother eats. The most important period for determining gender and sexual orientation is in the womb. When mothers smoke, drink, and eat garbage, their babies develop twisted brains. This is well documented by science. The mother's health is paramount to baby health, and many mothers are toxic and sick. Toxins disrupt the proper function of hormones, which then affects sexual orientation. The baby food just adds gasoline to the fire.

And how would one ACT if it were true? The problem is you got a silly, strawman notion of what solipsism means. It's like you're saying, the Earth cannot be round because everyone ACTS as though it were flat. And even if it is round, it does matter in everyday life.

Modern chemicals are 100 years old at most. They have never been in our food and water.

The most amazing thing about solipsism is how immediately it is rejected by virtually everyone, including every intellectual. And yet, obviously it is not rejected on any evidence-based grounds. It's rejected purely out of repugnance. This fact alone should make you extremely curious. Why is everyone in the world rejecting a worldview so cockily, entirely without evidence? Only an ego would behave that way. What is the ego hiding? Science has not 1 piece of evidence against solipsism. Think about that. That alone is an awesome fact. How can a worldview not have a single contradiction or piece of counter-evidence after 5000 years? That would have to be the most amazingly crafted worldview of all time, to withstand such an onslaught of scientific discovery. And yet, no one takes this worldview seriously. How is that possible?

Ginger is a nausea-reducing drug. Everyone knows this. People take it for sea-sickness. Ginger does not reduce the effect of psychedelics, it just suppresses the nausea response of the body. You can drink a poison, then take some ginger and feel better. But that doesn't mean the poison is any less poisonous and it will still kill you in the end.

There is no high rate of suicide on the forum. The rate is as it is across society at large. And no, I will not be bending over backwards to save mentally ill people. That's not my work. I teach advanced philosophy. I am not interested in suicide. If you need help with that, find a therapist. I am not your therapist. My only advice to you on this matter is: don't harm your physical body. If you don't want to follow my advice, then do it your way, but then I am not responsible for your results.
