The whole function of Donald Trump is to entertain the world with his crazy antics. This is partly why he was elected at all. I just can't take him seriously. Who takes him seriously? I'm confused. Who has the divine ability to take Donald Trump seriously? If you have that ability, you deserve a gold star from me. ⭐ -

I did say it's monetizable! What I also said is that you'll have trouble doing it because you're not contributing something that's useful to society. You'll have trouble turning it into a life purpose. Even if there is opportunity there today, that market will die long term. Would you rather be a shadowy capitalist who works in the shadows, exploiting people's fears for profits? Or would you be someone who has a life purpose contributing something meaningful to mankind, solving real problems of society? My claim is that the latter will competitively beat the former long term. -

Not impressed by the business model. I'd prefer someone running ads and doing business properly than relying on donations. If you're a philosopher, you can develop yourself to have a credible perspective. In the business of being an intellectual, credibility is power. This is monetizable. Now if you have a morality that says you shouldn't, well...... I'm sorry, that's your problem. Now if you're a conservative, the issue you'll run into is that you're not solving anyone's problems, i.e. you're not wanting change, rather you're wanting to defend the status-quo. That isn't very profitable as you're not doing anything! In fact, you're actively trying to hurt the cause of people who are doing something to solve society's problems. Conservatism makes it very hard to have a life purpose for this reason. -

I think you can't debunk any absolutist ideology. The reason is as follows: Truth includes everything. Which means, if you say something is fundamentally true, it is true for you. Therefore, it isn't logically inconsistent to say 'The world was created by a bearded man in the clouds. This is absolutely true.' This includes morality, religion, atheism, idealism. The whole notion of 'proof' or 'provability' becomes tenable only within the context of the materialist paradigm. The scientific materialist paradigm relies on experiments and 'physical evidence'. Therefore, science can be used to disprove superstitions within the context of the materialist paradigm. For example, if there's a materialistic superstition that says 'If you've broken a glass today, you'll lose your job in 2 days.', that can be disproved using science within the context of the materialist paradigm. The moment you exit the materialist paradigm, you will lose all ability to prove anything. There are materialistic aspects to libertarianism which you do explain in your video. Things like how government came into being, why it's important, etc. However, you can't disprove the moralistic, idalistic, utopian aspects of it. Relative to the other stuff, you can only hope they see what you're showing them. -

@Robi Steel You have courage, I'm gonna give you that. It takes courage to express your disagreements with the Left today. If you're able to critically think past their narrative, you're already on the cutting edge of thought today. I'd suggest you understand this and treat it accordingly. Understand that they will demonize Blue and Orange. -

You'll be fine. You need an intuition and creativity to do your job. That's not systematizable. -

I think he's just a Stage Red emotionally reactive guy who just goes with the flow. If he doesn't like BLM riots, he'll go against them and promote whatever's against BLM. That just happens to be white nationalists. He also likes power, so he will say stuff like 'When the looting begins, the shooting begins'. I find this funny because I can see that he doesn't really mean it. He's just being a stupid clown for attention. And people are absolutely getting the entertainment they want from him! The reason Trump is able to garner so much attention is that he isn't PC and is willing to express himself freely. This is polarizing and it will attract a lot of attention. People will be like 'I hate Trump! He's an evil bastard who is destroying America'. Some other people will be like 'Yaaaayyy Truuump!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!! We're all for you!' Like him or hate him, you can't really ignore the guy. -

This video accurately captures how painful the materialist paradigm really is. It then mixes it in with right-wing populism/libertarianism. -
Parththakkar12 replied to Extreme Z7's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
On a serious note, the part about harm-reduction is true. If I were an ideological leader/philosopher, I'd advocate for a progressive ideology any day over a conservative ideology. The progressive ideology is the one that advocates for social evolution. Having said that, my Stage Yellow part would want to integrate the fringe-philosophies and understand the perspectives involved. The point is to recognize it as part of Myself as opposed to letting the separation remain. This I'd do in my own personal life, I wouldn't publicly teach about it as it's too nuanced for the masses. -

I await the day the White House gets renamed to the 'Technicolor House' or something to not be offensive to any color. -

The one who has the power decides what counts as 'hate speech'. That's literally how this works. If you want this to change, you have one option. That is to start your own platform and moderate it as you want to. -
Parththakkar12 replied to Leo Gura's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Lol I'm not mad. I find it interesting that someone would want to identify as so many things. My personal practice my whole life has been dis-identification. -

Not enough labels. Statistically speaking, we need at least 137.62 labels more! Thank you for coming to my TED talk. -

@Leo Gura, you had said in your 'Collective Ego' video that if people create their own little splinter groups on this forum, you have a problem with it. You'd want to moderate it and stop people from creating their little factions on the forum. Why is that?

I understand what he's saying though. He's talking about freedom in the context of democracy, like you're 'asking for freedom' from some authority power-structure. This, I'd say, is freedom with a small f. It's freedom you go crying to your authority figures for. True Freedom is not given to you, it has to be woken up to. No system can give it to you. It is prior to systems. To be fully clear, I'm not promoting naive libertarianism which says 'We should be given full freedom'. All throughout history, society has unconsciously evolved because of the actions of unconscious, ruthless actions of dictators. We've never gotten to choose our society. For the first time in history, we're getting to choose the kind of society we want to live in. If we choose Freedom, we will be able to create radical systemic reforms that we could only dream of previously. Heck, we could even consciously create new systems. -
Parththakkar12 replied to Nak Khid's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
This is where I disagree. Freedom is a facet of the Absolute. It is a high-consciousness value. It is not about selfishness. I understand your fear of devils, criminals, etc. misusing it to cause suffering. However, I will assure you of this - High-consciousness survival strategies will out-perform low-consciousness strategies in the long run. The power will be held by the most enlightened mystics and they will create a society based on Consciousness and Love. This is because Free-will is the ultimate power. The more you are in your power, the more you'll be respected and the harder it will be for someone to intimidate you. -
Parththakkar12 replied to Nak Khid's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Ohh damn. Now I see what you're saying. You're saying that collectively safety comes first. Moreover, you're saying that safety should come first. You teach about individual enlightenment and living a conscious life individually. When you're living that life, quality of life/going for what you want/being in touch with your Infinite nature is more important than safety/security. What if the same were true collectively? What if, collectively we're going through an ego death and redefining ourselves as a world? What if, collectively, prioritizing safety and security is no longer tenable? Do you think that is a possibilty? -
Parththakkar12 replied to Lyubov's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Isn't censorship a Blue thing to do? There's a very broad definition of what is considered 'hateful content' and that will get banned. I think it's based on a political agenda. Because Google, Facebook and Youtube are doing this, there is an asking for free-speech platforms. There are a few cropping up like Bitchute. -

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!! It's like Trump said, 'tell them it's no big deal' and they said 'Oh, it's just the flu, no big deal.' Then Trump said 'Tell them they're gonna die from it' and they said 'COVID!! COVID!! 1 trillion deaths in US!!!!' You ask them 'The world population is 8 billion. How is it 1 trillion?' They'll say 'Including the virus, it's 1 trillion!!! Everyone get scared!!! AAAAAAAA!!!' *PANIC PANIC PANIC* Then Trump said 'Oh no, you scared them too much. Lets tell them it's no big deal.' They said 'It's no big deal. What? We don't keep records of what we report the previous day. We never said it was a big deal. Prove us wrong.' Has it ever been this blatant in history? #survivalism -

We are all one. The 'collective' is a concept in the minds of individuals. There is no difference between individual freedom and collective good. This dichotomy is created at Stage Blue because all stages below Orange are materialistic, so they don't see the Oneness of it. -
Parththakkar12 replied to Nak Khid's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Stage Blue takes religion and superstitious thinking more seriously than science. -
Parththakkar12 replied to Leo Gura's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Point. What I meant was an elite, who occupies a position of power, starts to believe stuff along the lines of 'I'm here because of my hard work. I deserve it while those losers out there, they don't!' That's what I meant by identifying as an elite, or a 'winner in the free market'. You are a huge exception to this, because you're living your Life purpose. Your life's work is integrating perspectives. Makes sense.
