  1. @Lucasxp64 Enough of this online time-wasting. Go out and talk to real girls. That's what you are procratinating on with these online games. You cannot learn to be good with girls over a computer. It is too safe and too easy. It's a gimmick. Solving this issue requires real work. Embrace the work, the challenge, the fear.
  2. Caring about people isn't the issue. The issue is when you care about a small tribe of "your" people at the expense of everyone else. And also the issue is that by socializing with them you fall into group-think, not thinking about reality on your own. You not only get corrupted by survival and ego, you then get corrupted a second time by social survival and collective ego. So you are doubling up on survival bias.
  3. 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.
  4. I'm making this thread to collect every important video or source of information I find about understanding Israel's deceptive behavior. I've found dozens upon dozens of important videos, too many to fit on the blog. So I'm going to keep adding them here. Feel free to add your own. This is not a thread about debating the Israel-Gaza war. I want to build up a playlist of quality videos for people who want a deep understanding of Israel's deceptive behavior -- the underbelly, if you will. This playlist does not focus on understanding Hamas or Arab terrorism or the latest news about the Gaza conflict (since we already have a thread for that). Warning, this list will be pretty negative as it focuses on uncovering deception, propaganda, bias, ethnic cleansing, war crimes, and deconstructing illusions. I see a lot of deception and bias about Israel in mainstream western media which I want to dispel. That's what this playlist is about. This is part of my study of self-deception and self-bias. Sorry if this doesn't seem fair, but this is what I needed to study to unravel the deceptions. This is part of my own sense-making journey. Feel free to discuss any of the videos or share your own. Be mindful not to share low quality, hateful, or misleading/untruthful material. The point here is not be deliberately negative but to gain a deeper understanding of the Israel situation. I will delete any low quality material posted here.
  5. This is a catch-all thread for any comments or discussions you guys wanna have about any entries from Leo's Blog.
  6. There is no substitute for lack of health. You either find a cure or you live half a life.
  7. Lots of toxins and bad chemicals everywhere. The human organism is not made for such.
  8. He went out of his way to share a resource with you. Don't be ungrateful. Why would he share anything with you again if you adopt that attitude?
  9. It comes from a consciousness of the miracle that is existence. Don't know. Certainly genetics is a factor because a chimpanzee has no appreciation of existence. But I don't know about whether a typical human is lacking the genetics or is just so brainwashed and mindless. Very few.
  10. Because understanding existence is the only thing that has any importance.
  11. Those aren't notes, that is an outline for a talk. I rarely make notes at all these days. I only write down my own insights. And those look similar to what I post in black on the blog. I have it but I rarely use it anymore because I just work intuitively in my mind most of the time, unless it's some special situation like making a course or writing a book. My whole approach becomes more and more intuitive and loose rather than formal and technical.
  12. There is no problem reading spiritual stuff. Some of that is necessary. This misses the whole beauty of Awakening. The difference is I went beyond all that. I know things this guy could not imagine. I did just read him to see the gist of it. Nothing wrong with reading him.
  13. Well, that's a big mistake. Truth requires understanding. That's not the issue. The issue is lack of consciousness and understanding. Everything that comes and goes is Truth, but there is way more to Awakening and God than that. Don't assume that your guy comprehends God. He's parroting a lot of boilerplate nonduality, which he learned from following some other guy like himself without question, which you will now repeat. And on the chain of human spiritual ignorance goes. God is way more profound and advanced than all that. But I appreciate you sharing this document. It has its place.
  14. Not until now. I skimmed the PDF and it's pretty standard enlightenment teachings, like dozens I've read before. I have grown sick of this sort of teaching since it gives no real understanding of Consciousness. But if it works for you, great.
  15. Yeah, that works. It's a lot of material to comb through before commenting on it meaningfully.
  16. People cannot even being to comprehend what horrors reality has in store for you. Whatever happiness you have, cherish it, because it can be gone in a flash. I do not teach unconditional happiness any more because it is a fantasy.
  17. I don't need to believe it. He did it.
  18. You can take your grievances to the Almighty when you're dead. My badge is #666999.
  19. The insight is that awakening and spirituality will not give you good politics because politics requires domain-specific contemplative work and research, which spiritual people are not interested in because they are still all operating on group-think. Awakening and mystical experience does not solve the group-think problem nor the epistemology problem. You can have all the enlightenment and still be a cognitive and political bum. Which is why we devote a chunk of this work to upgrading our political understanding. This is why Actualized is a radically holistic project and not just merely self-inquiry.
  20. It's not the same. Verizon does not have a social media platform. I have a certain responsiblity when running this forum to prevent abuse. Imagine if I did no moderation of this forum and anyone was allowed to join and do anything.
  21. He's another one of these anti-woke milkers.
  22. Nice fantasy you got there. Would be a shame if something came along and spoiled it.
