  1. In capitalism you are literally competing with others for control over other people, and can be tyrannical by firing people based on political views, allowing tons of people to starve while you're hoarding money that you won't use and wouldn't be able to spend. People aren't arguing for Stalin era communism, it's democratic socialism mixed with capitalism. Then you could say that by taking money back from a burglar, you're taking and spending the money that he created. If a CEO is giving himself free money while people are struggling, you aren't right to call the "communists" who want to redistribute wealth the parasites.
  2. Here are the facts: like I've said in another thread, meeting with a dictator to reduce the chances of nuclear war which wouldn't have happened anyway while condoning a dictatorship will clearly only keep the dictatorship going, instead of improving or liberating the country and taking down the dictatorship. You are only saying this right now because you don't live in a dictatorship.
  3. Not an argument for "I can assure you he has nothing to do with Russia" even if those were heavily bad for Russia, why would Russia not want to mess with the US election if it can benefit it and it has very good hackers? Notice how I am not denying Hillary Clinton was a shit candidate for president.
  4. He is president of the united states, so he obviously does, especially because he tries to pander to dictators. All three of those are obviously relative and you need to question them, hell only breaks loose according to Jordan Peterson and whatever SD stage blue measurements he is using.
  5. You won't do yourself a favor looking at women through rose colored glasses while ignoring their sociopathy. You just happen to have one or two positive experiences of women, and now you idolize a gender.
  6. Because that's literally what Trump wants to do, just to meet with them and decrease tensions while the dictatorships keeps going.
  7. Yes, it can minimize tensions but there wouldn't be a war anyway, meeting with Kim Jon Un is bad because it condones what North Korea is doing to it's people, it condones the dictatorship instead of doing anything about it, if you were in North Korea you wouldn't the tensions to be reduced because that would just mean there's a lesser chance that the dictatorship will be ended
  8. Oh yes I meant a stage yellow/green person still holding on to a value or two that is from stage blue or stage red, but not being blue or red. On their website they do believe Turquoise is about "Spiritual intelligence, energetic fields, presence, “resting in being” and living from a universal awareness and existence." so I don't know how the video was too far away from that, maybe because of mentioning things like ESP and Mahasamādhi - but those things being included under Turquoise is healthy regardless of if the creators of the original model disagree, instead of compromising to stay in line with the original model.
  9. Bernie is very ahead of his time, while Yang tries to appeal to centrists and not question the system
  10. People who you'd think would embody green, yellow or turquoise values just end up being extremely delusional narcissists with some values much closer to stage blue or red Prepare for as much disappointment as you can
  11. Useful for going from green to yellow
  12. Comic book example of stage red/orange
  13. I highly doubt OP is saying people are most free in their high school years, but is asking what you would have done after finishing high school and advice about that
  14. Nobody is going to be converted by your appeal to emotion You're vegan, yet you didn't achieve the goal of stopping this by going vegan Ofc, torture of animals is needless, but that's a specific problem, not something fundamental to eating meat at all
  15. The toddler analogy from some video (probably titled "everything explained" but I can't remember) is gibberish, acting like a toddler playing with legos is not something that will get you closer to truth Anger part 1 is also not going to help with anger issues
  16. Let's say you're not okay with killing a dog, but okay with pigs being killed, this could be because: -The pig is not a pet, it was "raised" with the purpose to be stock -The pig does not have an emotional attachment -It doesn't break laws -It doesn't die painfully
  17. No, because even if the stage turquoise person censored themselves they'd still be dealing with a crowd this idiotic:
  18. So this directly ties back to collective consciousness? (the video you posted on the blog)
  19. Correlation isn't causation, this doesn't have to mean the reason you're not succeeding is that you're being overly needy even tho it could be a part of it
