Low: demonization, disgust, homophobia, double-standards, machiavellianism

Are you holding it quietly, or do you just not understand? That's the heart of the issue.

Where did you get this data?

Low: circular reasoning, low-construct awareness

You could watch it that way. But then you missed the deeper point.

He's trying to be a right-wing Borat. But the problem is that Borat was funny precisely because it pointed out the bigotry of lower stages of development. Walsh is just ignorant.

The US has wanted Greenland for a very long time, even before Trump's first term. It's far more than just rhetoric. It's not even Trump's idea. Greenland is central to current geopolitical power struggle between major powers.

@shree It sounds like you're dealing with serious trauma. In which case you probably want to get some sort of formal credential. There's not just liability with something goes wrong. You could also just get in legal trouble for practicing therapy without a license, depending on your local laws. That's applicable even if everything goes right.

It's definitely possible. The guy was on a withholding order due to threat of violence if he was deported. He could have easily been killed in prison.

Looks like DEI to me. Bezos is a Trump supporter, he should know that's over.

JL with some good commentary on this: I first found this guy because he was doing funny Trump impressions. But then I saw that he actually had some very intelligent political takes, which surprised me. Turns out, he actually graduated from law school and worked as an assistant district attorney before turning to comedy full time. Interesting guy.

Trump outright ignoring SCOTUS: This one is hitting me harder than anything else that has happened so far. More than all the shameless grifting, DOGE BS, tariff madness, criminal pardons, deportation theatre, attacks on DEI, attacks on free press and whatever else. This is the one. They could bring this guy back in a heartbeat. A guy with a family who committed no crime. And they’re just not going to do it. More than that, I have every expectation that they will go after anyone who tries to bring him back. This, like everything in Trump world, is now a loyalty test. That’s authoritarianism.

Potential insider trading: https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2025/04/11/congress/tariffs-insider-trading-allegations-democrats-00286880 Don't forget Trump and his wife both have already done a memecoin pump and dump.

How could we forget this guy? An entire career based on criticizing SD Green from below:

@kavaris we’ve already discussed him, you can search for older threads about it. My perspective is that he is doing BS. I looked at his “proof” just for the sake of being open minded and it was a complete joke. He does not even seem to understand basic algebra, let alone advanced mathematics / physics.

High: Post-modern critique of history, globalism, egalitarianism, consciousness of American devilry

@Emerald no Jung?

Gotcha. Yes that's a good point. They may be more inclined to see higher stages of development as about results, versus an academic psychology professor who is focused on cognitive function. To be fair, I think Yellow as defined by the model is likely to be taking a lot of action to change the world. Yellow is still going to have a lot of that SJW programming from Green. But once you start getting to Turquoise or even beyond, it gets very unclear to me what you can expect from that level of development. We're in getting into uncharted territory at that point. In general, the main thing I want to emphasize is beware of your expectations of these higher stages. You probably have a lot of ambition if you're into personal development, and ALL the personal development teachers you have been consuming are pumping you with expectations of your development. Expectations of money, success, fame, health, relationships, spiritual powers etc. All the stuff you want. Some of that is fine, but be careful. Because your development may not always line up with those expectations. And you will not understand why and keep resisting it.

Ain't no body that good.

@Jordan You might do well getting into bodywork and complementary healing modalities. Things like acupuncture, massage, Qi-gong, dietician, etc. If you're really dedicated, you could even do chiropractic.

Fair enough. I don't so much mind bringing in interpretation though. My hunch is they are overestimating the amount of people at Tier 2. 1% at Yellow seems way too high for the global population in particular. But it would be great if we could get more data.

I didn't understand what point you were trying to make here. Explain it again?

I'm saying beware of your expectations. The devil is in what you expect.
