@egoless Absolute is Absolute. You will not understand that until you encounter the Absolute yourself.
By all means, don't take my word for it. You must discover all this for yourself. I am just giving you a push in the right direction. None of this is to be taken as a belief system.
Reality IS a delusion within a delusion within a delusion -- to infinity! That's what enlightenment means! It covers absolutely everything possible. You literally become conscious of everything that could possibly be. You become God. Your consciousness becomes so total, nothing else remains.

Lol
Enlightenment explains evil perfectly. It's the simplest thing possible: evil doesn't exist!
The problem is, the ego doesn't want to accept that. Because the ego feels threatened by things like murder, rape, and theft. The ego's job is to be biased, to favor itself at all costs. So this notion that rape isn't evil offends you. Because you don't like the idea of absolute freedom. It's literally too much freedom for you to handle. It's so free, it will kill you. So you want to constrict infinity to a manageable, finite size which your mind and psyche can easily handle.
The cost of that, however, is that you are very easily disturbed and you suffer. As soon as reality goes against you, you cry and shout and get angry. That's because you refused to surrender to the fact that your very life is worthless and meaningless in the big picture. The whole point of your life might be to be a cum receptacle for a rapist, or fuel for Hitler's ovens. But of course you don't like that idea. It's too REAL.
Yet nonetheless, no matter how much you resist all this, the fact remains that reality has all these freedoms. There is a real possibility that one day you will get raped or thrown into an oven. And even if you don't, no matter what, you will die. So you will lose this ego-game you're playing no matter what! The only question is, will you resist the freedom of reality or accept it?
Of course there is nothing wrong, bad, or evil about ego. You can be selfish if you want. Reality doesn't care if you remain lost in untruth, or rape a horse. To reality, there is no preference for one thing over another. From the enlightened perspective, ego isn't bad or evil. Ego is confusion of the mind. And there is also nothing bad or evil about confusion.
Of course! You are one with all the rapists who ever lived, and ever will live. They are literally you, and you are literally them!
Which is why judgment of people is pointless and delusional.
Jesus told you to love people, and not to judge them, for this very reason. He wasn't telling you to be cute or lovey-dovey, or "a nice person" so that Saint Peter could let you into the gates of Heaven. He was telling you to surrender all of your attachments to self, until the point where someone could nail you to cross, and you would be happy about it, because whatever happens to your body doesn't matter. It's not you, and it will die anyways.
Enlightenment literally means: self-less-ness. No self, no evil, no resistance, no problem.
vs.
Self, evil, resistance, suffering << the way you live now.
Heaven is not a place you get to for being "a good person". Heaven is just the state of being without a self.
This is True Religion. Mainstream religion corrupts this truth because it's too unpalatable. The whole point of culture is to serve the ego's self-biases. So a truth like this cannot be transmitted uncorrupted through mainstream culture.

Of course it feels damn wrong to the ego.
You're not grasping that we are talking about a radically different mode of living here. After enlightenment, life as you know it is gone. Reality has literally ceased to exist, you are dead inside. Like REALLY! Imagine that! You are a zombie inside and you will NEVER return to the old you! Someone could rape you, and you wouldn't care, because you've already died! Try to imagine that radical of a transformation. Imagine yourself not being human any more, but still appearing human to others from the outside. They will think you're a human, but you will know you're not.
I have done it before, and I will do it again. There is nothing better than death.
We are dealing with highly counter-intuitive stuff here. It utterly boggles the mind. It is totally unbelievable until you arrive there. It's such a deep mindfuck, the realization of it alone is enough to kill you.
P.S. They are two separate things, but once you've become it, you have no more need to judge it. The judging is what you do to distract from becoming it. The sooner your stop judging, the sooner you will become it.

Crypto is dumb, but stocks are legit. You just gotta pick solid companies and hold for years. Stocks generate real value, not as trades but from the work and innovation of the people in the companies.

That's not good enough of an epistemic evaluation . 
pseudoscience is not synonym for bullshit. Pseudoscience means there isn't enough science yet which leaves a lot of room for uneducated interpretation, this has been happening all the time throughout the history of humanity.  It can also mean that there is actually so much science that the public is left overwhelmed and people just sort of make up their own pseudoscientific conclusions based on hearsay, feeling, marketing and guessing. Pseudoscience can also be a source of future science for example an accumulation of personal anecdotes can be a stage of of clinical trial design eventually.
Personal anecodes become collected as Case Studies -> those are being collected by doctors as case series -> sufficient amount of case series may trigger first experimental case control studies or cross sectional studies -> with enough data and time and money, these may progress into retrospective cohort studies and later on with more funding and data into prospective studies -> eventually RCTs and if we get enough of everything, the data will be systematically reviewed and meta-analysed.
At that stage because so much has been collected, we can have faith that what the science shows is probably more reliable than hunches and guesses although it does not mean it has 100% correct answers, just makes it more likely that the true effect has probably been captured relatively precisely....with more time it will either be narrowed down further or actually the direction may start changing. 
Who says all health benefits are coming down to theobromin, I think its just one of many compounds that are responsible for the effects. Kinda like green tea. There are probably hundreds of polyphenols in cocoa that we have no knowldge on. 
To me , DC falls into a category of processed foods that are beneficial and their benefits outweight the cost until they start tipping you over your caloric limit, causing weight gain and at that point they become more harmful than beneficial. Some other examples of such category would be: seed oils, nut butters, plant butters, plant-based meat replacements, wholegrain bakery, starchy foods etc/. 

No. They just never cared about truth in the first place.
It took me decades just to realize that truth is a value very few humans actually have.
Once you understand that, it all makes sense.

Get your blood work done. Check your thyroid and hormones. Many people have thyroid or hormone imbalances. Low energy is often associated with under-active thyroid.
Of course cleaning up your diet is very important. If you eat shit you will feel like shit. Stop eating all wheat products and all junk food. Carb heavy foods make you extra sleepy.
You should also do a urine test for heavy metal toxicity. Heavy metals like mercury and lead cause all sorts of energy problems. There are detox protocols for detoxing heavy metals if you have them.

No one cares about reality. They are just using reality to survive, like monkeys.
Your mistake is assuming that people care. Even scientists and philosophers don't really care.

Science has already shown that some people are genetically nightowls.

Trump doesn't really have a life purpose. His only purpose is to puff up his ego and create illusions of success.

A typical Vegas summer day.
There is a pine forest on a mountaintop 45 mins drive from Vegas where the weather is perfect room temperate in the summer. I go there to hike and hang out. It's perfect.

There are many factors.
Mental illness is a big factor.
Misuse of the mind is a big factor.
Bad childhood and parenting is a big factor.
Bad life choices is a big factor.
Health is a big factor.
Lack of socialization is a big factor.

Nonsense

When I lived in Dallas I would go out from 11pm-1:30am.
My doctor friend in Vegas goes out 11pm-12:30am and only collects phone numbers because he has to work in the mornings.

We have suicidal people on this forum. Plenty of them in the mental health sub-forum. It's sad and I hope they seek out face-to-face help because a forum is not enough to fix that.
I have spoken to some of them and they are very stuck. Unfortunately I don't have the time nor skill to coach every one of them.
I've gone through very difficult health problems so I understand how hopeless and miserable life can get.

Google Kino Escalation Ladder. Read it, then practice it every night you go out. It's easy. You just need balls and practice.

The day you realize EVERYTHING is literally awesome.
You got it

Day13: 
veggie mix, mango, beans, red lentils, tomatoes, coconut milk, brown rice, sardines  

Bernie's radicalness is what makes him authentic, which makes him appealing over everyone else who is just a group-thinking corporate stooge.
Focusing on practical working class issues is exactly what makes you radical. Because the radical is the one who is a real threat to power. And power is business as usual and exploitation as usual.

The trick is to suffer and not care.

Bias. Americans are brainwashed with consumer American culture and live in an American bubble. They don't travel. They aren't educated. They have the same level of development as Trump or Bush so they see him as one of their own.
To be fair, other countries and cultures are also stupid in this way. They all fall for nationalist vibes and strongmen. China, India, Hungary, Russia, France, UK, Italy, Brazil, etc.
Remember those C and D students from high school who were ignorant and lazy and sloppy and didn't even try for excellence? Well, there are 100+ million of them and guess who they will be voting for? They couldn't find China on a map if you gave them a million dollars. These people live like animals. They do not think or develop themsleves, they run on group-think. They haven't sat down to contemplate a damn thing in their lives. They do what church or boss or friends tell them. Friends drink, they drink. Like monkeys. This is your average voter. So what can you expect? They have zero understanding of how government works. All they understand is vibes. Own those gay pedo Libs! That is the level of thinking that we're dealing with.
The #1 predictor of whether you will vote for Trump is simply your education level. The more ignorant you are the more appealing Trump appears.
And if you were highly intelligent you would see that Trump is a dangerous degenerate within 5 minutes of hearing him. But of course, no one wants to admit that they are that ignorant. It's too painful, so instead excuses are made for why Trump seems appealing or reasonable.
But the simple truth is that Trump's entire political movement is pure idiocy and depravity. No better than Hitler's relative to his time.

I won't go so far as to call him a con-artist. I think he genuinely believes in what he's doing. It's just that he lives in one of those tech-bro bubbles with too much money and no deeper values or purpose.

All that means is that he has good genetics.
He didn't create it for himself. In fact, all of his success is built atop that foundation of solid health, which he assumes everyone who follows him also has, but they don't.
You cannot bluster and bullshit your way into good health. You use good health to bluster and bullshit. This is what the entire health industry is built upon: people with great genetics singing about how healthy they are and how you can be like them when in fact you can't unless you got good genetics too.
Taking mushroom supplements and New Age herbs is not going to give you Owen's level of health. He's just fooled himself on that point because he takes his own health for granted.
Just to be able to do pickup consistently requires good health. Because it demands so much energy. All this is taken for granted within the community.
This doesn't mean Owen lying, his worldview just takes certain things for granted because he is not focus on truth, he is focused on selling you a dream of success.

Gym rats gonna gym rat.
Going to the gym to get girls is stupid.

Most adults are just children.
