People imagine oppression when there is none in my point of view. -
How is she going to handle divorce if she cannot even handle a break-up? I hope your next girl friend was someone who's mentally stable and doesn't have emotional roller coaster rides.

Cut them out of your life.

I read a wikipedia article about Alex Jones. He has advocated unfounded conspiracy theories. He certainly has a lot of fears. I think it's better to let him talk than to try to silence him. Open dialogues are better than hidden agendas. People learn from mistakes of others.

I have that disorder, too.

Tell me how to do it. Doing a 20 minute meditation is challenging to me.

Leo himself wrote on this forum that his life purpose changes everyday and he might even decide to commit suicide. He also says death is a good thing and even uploaded this video. He seems fond of death. His eyes glitter with enthusiasm when he talks about death. It's more difficult for a man with strong community bonds to commit suicide.

I've heard from TJ Reeves. If I think about Leo Gura on his videos and his forum, he doesn't seem like a man who nurtures his tribe. He prefers being a lone wolf. My purple is poor, too.

If your lack of interest in her life purpose ruins her self-esteem, your girl friend needs more personal development.

If you think you are Green and feel little or no compassion toward Orange, your Green is poorly developed. Well-developed compassion extends to stages below and above itself. It even extends to psychopaths. The average is poorly developed and pretty miserable at any stage of Spiral Dynamics. Leo Gura is well developed from Beige to Yellow, except at Purple. He is different from the average Green people you see. Yet, his Green is well developed.
-
That's unbalanced development. If you are developed well from Beige to Yellow, you do not repress Green.

Here are sub-components of Green that I got from TJ Reeves. Compassion How well you demonstrate empathy, care, and understanding for another despite the situation they have found or even placed themselves in. Humanitarianism The ability to see yourself as part of the one human colony, instead of as an individual. How well you act in accordance to that understanding. Idealism The vision you hold for how well the world could be or should be, even if it sin't or even if it might sound ridiculous. Included in this is that each and every human on the planet has the resources, time, attention, and love they need to unlock their potential. Post-Modern Awareness A healthy awareness of the fact that many of the rules we take for granted are simply made up. And although biology certainly influences society, the point of being a human is customizing ourselves and choosing the life we want to live despite the biological cards we've been dealt. Moral Intuition How connected you are to a gut sense of what is right and wrong at a level that goes beyond what was told to you or written down in a book, but instead comes from your heart. Self-Acceptance Knowing that you are perfect as you are right here, right now, and that no one else has the right to validate that fact nor do you need them to.

I think I had a peek into awakening recently without LSD or any psychedelics. Deep work is itself a form of meditation although it is not efficient.

I was watching this video. He said I am a donkey. I think I'm not a donkey. I think I at least conceptually understand what truth is and what existence is. I understood that "1+1=3" is true in the sense that it exists. Anything that exists is truth. I just don't know for sure whether I really get it. Maybe, I already get it. Maybe, I don't.
-
The trick is that it often motivates me toward distractions I would rather not think about. It often makes you think about solutions to problems that you don't have or are not going to have in the near future. Solutions looking for problems.

We take good government for granted. However, it seems that some governments are regressing and good governance is an illusion. I will take responsibility by accounting for bad governance in my plans. While good governance is possible, I cannot depend on something unreliable. Don't take good governance for granted. While it's good to participate in politics, account for bad governance in your plans. You want contingency plans and damage minimization.

It's expected. SJWs are loud and conspicuous. Capitalism hides in plain sight. When you paint yourself as a target and attack others loudly, you will get attacked. When you become a mosquito and suck blood out of human cows, human cows will just remain lazy. Mosquitos want you to remain as lazy consumers who consume facebook feeds mindlessly and neglect responsibilities like lifting weights and making your body fit. SJW = Loud targets that want attention Capitalists = mosquitos that don't want attention In my point of view, SJWs and lazy consumers both need personal development in order for them to stop complaining and start taking responsibilities for their own lives. They are doing poor job of becoming independent.

Another instance of relativism. The toxicity of capitalism is relative to era and level of technological development. It is a lot more humane than it used to be around industrial revolution when capitalism was literally toxic industrial materials and weapons for colonizers. Vulture capitalism is still more humane than colonial-era capitalism. It seems socialism is also more humane than it used to be between 1900 and 1970. Pick your poison.
-
Relativism, Leo. 8 minutes are not short for me.
-
I took a break from work and walked around my neighbornood. While I was walking, I realized that I had been orchestrated. God controls every aspect of me. My consciousness is God's consciousness. My emotions are God's emotions. In a sense, I'm God since God is orchestrating everything. However, I don't feel that I'm God. I still feel that I'm something that's not necessarily human. I feel more like being God's creation than like being God.

Is an aspect of love a behavioral commitment to help a person self-actualize? Helping a person take responsibility Helping a person overcome addictions Helping a person stop complaining Helping a person love others and other things more. Helping myself cut people who keep violating my boundaries out of my life in order to produce more labor of love for others. .... -
"I wanna be the guy" is a very difficult game. It teaches you what it takes to love and achieve something difficult. It makes you have direct experience of hard difficulty. I think self-deception and laziness are similar to this. It's so full of land mines that you have to learn it through repeated direct experience. To have repeated direct experience, you have to be willing to push beyond your comfort zone as often as possible. Eventually, you become a master at the game.

Like ants? At my conscious level, it could be possible with assistance of very advanced technologies.
-
In the far future, it's possible that governments as we know them may not exist. Societies, politics, hierarchies, and governance may still exist, but they may not require governments in the far future. Governments are only viable and seemingly necessary relatively to this current era. With very advanced technologies, hierarchies could potentially become too fluid, too flexible, and too shallow for governments to exist.
-
I wanted to balance absolutism with some relativism. Too many people think governments are absolutely necessary. Relativism is good for developing out-of-box thinking which helps with innovations. Even if my post is irrelevant, it still helps with developing flexible mind.
