It's not just a matter of individual choice. Because your choices will inevitably affect everyone else. That's just being part of a collective / community. That is not the ultimate goal. Inevitably, you will need some kind of central organizational entity. We call that government. Government is going no where.

Don’t like them either. They are convenient, but that’s the problem. The whole thing feels overly optimized and transactional to me. At the same time, I also find dating apps harder than in real life. I can get dates IRL I would never get from an app.

Not a fan. I don't like heavily structured dating experiences. I need things to be more organic.

That conservative women trust their individual husband to represent them is not insane. They could have a good husband. But that's a different question than what legal rights women should have. Feminists are also not wrong for distrusting male leadership and wanting to build agency / autonomy. There have been many abuses of male power.

Nice! Sounds like some real insights.

There can be a variety of surface-level motivations that bring someone to truth-seeking. What matters ultimately is just that you get there.

I think this is too far. Physical beauty is still a relative notion. If every woman looked equally beautiful, you would not find it as meaningful.

You really want some of both. Game is great for initial attraction. But if you want to genuinely build a life together long-term, you need that financial infrastructure. Game cannot do that. Game is sparkles and fairy dust.

You are still going to experience normal human emotions. Doesn't matter how much spiritual work you think you've done.

This is not even close to what spirituality is about.

Of course. Leftists are interesting in puncturing much of the self-deception around these things. While MAGA wants to preserve it. That's the tension. This is why leftists can be both right and naive. It's always why they lose. Leftists have their own self-deception.

Good stuff. You can worry about body count if you're never getting laid. Once you've gotten laid a bit, forget about it. Massive diminishing returns for something that will cause you to miss higher aspects of life if you put too much emphasis on it.

That’s good. You should be afraid to some degree. It’s a big responsibility. Don’t mess it up

There's tailoring your answer to your audience, and then there's just confusion. I feel this is just confusion.
