Rokazulu replied to Danioover9000's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
It works by appealing and reversing bans that mods of the service may make that are not consistent with the network policy. People simply report actions that go against network policy to remove actual hate speech. Every topic and every thread does not need to be voted upon to be posted. AI only serves as one other way to find and remove bots, spammers, or other obvious breaches in network policy. Since the code is open source, the way the community moderates itself, and any algorithm is known to the public, and requests to change the code to more efficient setups can be made. I don't see how it could be worse to create a more community driven setup to moderation. Same type of thinking would be a quantum leap in how we govern ourselves as well. -

The hive mind of any sub-reddit lies in their mods willingness to censor any thread deemed unworthy, not in their voting system; which at least still shows what the community believes is valuable and what is not. -

https://cdn-assets.minds.com/The_Censorship_Effect.pdf Starting at page 49. Something like a community ran moderation system, where everyone decides what is actually unacceptable speech vs what is only believed to be unacceptable speech. I don't know. To me, it is rather contradictory to resist violence with violence. Some would say "they aren't enacting violence, they are enacting resistance or force against tyranny" and yet, violence remains unjustified no matter what we label it as. If we say it is justified, then whatever negatives we believe about the word "anarchy" now becomes half-true. Still another way remains. Peaceful direct democracy. More community responsibility. -

Anarchy is not chaos or freedom to be immoral. Quite the opposite. It calls for direct representation of our government so that corruption is less likely to take place. Meaning we all participate within the government on equal terms. Nothing about just letting people get away with immorality. . We involve ourselves with a lot of unnecessary control of individual action in most cases, because of a handful of individual's fear of losing their perceived power. However, our standard for what morality is, as a collective, is rather distorted right now anyways. It would be ideal if this was discussed in the same way to prevent central authorities from overtaking the entire conversation with their limited point of view. Moderation can be handled in many creative ways that doesn't in any way, shape, or form, have to include a central authority making all the decisions. -

You don't need a conspiracy theory to explain why GMOs, flouride, aluminum, antibiotics, pollution, vaccines and 5G are unhealthy for us. All one has to do is either look at the science, or try them out. -

Would be nice to have a ruling like that here. Especially, since vaccine companies are not liable for any damages. A pandemic of the unvaccinated is not a correct statement to make. Vaccines either work for the individual, or they do not. It can't be both. Bodily autonomy please. This whole affair was really absurd to see happen. -
Forgive me for talking in this way, but one can sense anyone's aura to gauge their sense of freedom. Most people I engage with have some kind of static within them. It is known as "fundamental dissatisfaction". Like a low vibratory state. They often say they are happy or at least content with life, but there are so many things that provoke their static. Like a puppet on strings. If unprovoked, they can maintain a relative happiness within trivial thoughts. I am not completely immune of this.

It is easier to communicate when we can easily blame one thing for all the world's problems. Ego plays the same role as "Satan" or "Evil" in most spiritual dialogue, just to make sense out of negativity. Some form of negative has to be communicated. Seems like saying it is all "ego" is accurate enough in a lot of cases. -
It is very useful to learn about any new idea. But, to hold it as a part of one's identity, is a human hand grenade. Even those who are misinformed use it as munition.

Rokazulu replied to Leo Gura's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
All my parents could do for me is provide for me materially. I was a quiet inquisitive kid, that did not fit in. When they allowed me to purchase a video game, a toy or some fast food, it felt as close to love as they could provide because, I knew I would be enjoying myself as a result. It never seemed like they had the wisdom to provide me with anything deeper than that. In all honesty, @Leo Gura was a better father figure than my own father. It wasn't until listening to your audio (and that of the more popular sage types) that allowed me a type of mind autonomy and insight that I never found from any of my family, friends, nor teachers. A very real sense of mutual understanding. A type of understanding that was telling me "You are not crazy, and here's why". That is when I really could get down with the concept of love, as something more than just my lower self. -
Many don't vote because they don't believe it will make a difference, as both sides are corrupt. Others vote in terms of the slight degrees in difference, believing that the other side must constantly be playing defense lest we slip into chaos. The seemingly more astute will vote third party, in their vain effort to change, yet unknowingly they are just voting for a fourth party. Still this remains the best choice within the confines of the system we are speaking about. It isn't the best choice overall.

This does highlight the importance of holding opposing viewpoints simultaneously. Killing an ant is murder according to my view. But, I rather we reward people for good behavior rather than create laws that punish bad behavior. When you ask someone pro-life why they continue to eat meat, they have no answer. Nor, do they have a good response for those who are homeless. These labels obviously do us no good when either side uses them when politically convenient. The mandates were implemented out of a great fear for the health of all individuals, but if those measures actually worked for the individual, you wouldn't need anyone else to follow them. I trust it doesn't happen again. And if it does. Perhaps, we need to add a lettuce mandate on top of it, so at least we can show that we understand the root cause. But, whether the hypocrisy is known or not, we still have to allow those with higher capacity to create change (adult humans), their free will intact. Honestly! These clothing mandates are restrictive enough! -
It has its degrees of obscenity, but again— so does all of our entertainment. I don't see how a drawing of a naked person, as an example, can create harm to anyone. In the very distant future, it is definitely possible that the popularity of anything that has even a hint of violence will start dropping as our consciousness slowly begins to raise. I will say though! Pornography is definitely my greatest weakness. But, I suppose if I didn't have one vice, I would start floating away.
-
That's honestly good enough. Most go their whole life without even glimpsing it, and thus their growth into more love becomes stalled and limited. The goal is a perpetual state, but that requires a very strong desire. A desire that must evolve naturally from experience.
-
Everything experienced is the spiritual goal. Any desire you have is there for a reason, and when you have no expectation of their fulfillment— there will be no backlash. You innately have the sense of when you need to start doing more of something and less of something else.

Basically, whatever. Like wondering what dream you will have when you go to sleep at night. -
"Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." It seems as though, there is something to be said about this. Our society is built in such an unusual way. A way that allows those with very little compassion and insight, to be the facilitators of change. That change, often leading and driven by a very limited type of selfishness. And for those that have some type of passion to create a society that would allow more equality of abundance, seem to often acquiesce to the pressures that these facilitators demand of them. In this manner, the devil is quite persuasive. Not to bring up Jesus again, but he too had that very choice of being corrupted like this and chose not to. As did the Buddha! That is the choice, I trust you all make as well if you ever arrive in such a position. Conscious folks make wealth only to meet their need, not their greed. But, when it comes to selling our soul, we have to make the utmost effort not to concede to a lower consciousness, if ever given the choice. For some mystics, it seems rather admirable that they did not even touch money at all. While, this is of course, is not necessary for anyone to obtain a higher consciousness, they did so— as an example of the value and bliss of God over anything material.

There has to be solid evidence of criminal activity first. Perhaps, instead of pointing the blame outside themselves and spinning conspiracy theories (a job usually reserved for Republicans). Democrat leaders should reflect on their many betrayals of the working class and core voting base.

Abortions are only enacted upon because of our economic disparity and stress. Fixing that should be the real emphasis of anyone who says they care about life. Masks may help people feel safe, but I do not feel safe with a mask on. Quite the opposite. The increased C02 levels experienced with a mask on, places more stress on my immune system than if I were to breathe naturally. Mandates of this kind were highly reactionary and don't even solve the fundamental issue of disease. -
That would require the necessary integration. The word you are looking for is known as bypassing. A sandcastle may feel justified when it stands against the waves. But, the tide comes in all the same.

If we still think along lines of Left vs Right. Good vs Evil. Nothing will change.

I like how: In the meditation forum— God is intelligent love! In the politics forum— God is a blind idiot! OP, your insight is keen. But, what is done is done. The answer can only unfold as your life.
