remember

if they are ideologies, but well yes in a lot of cases and most cases ideologies turn out to be blinding and self righteous, but i also realized sometimes in some practiced aspects they can contain truths. in a historical setting the grand religions also brought laws and regulation where there was no constitution, in that sense all religions are setting the world into an order and every order can be abused if the wrong people get to power. therefore every ideology is prone to abuse the more hirarchic/authocratic the weaker the ideology/religion/system/constitution is towards suppression. if genesis is already misogynous in it´s essence of course it will be abused. so yes in this sense you could say they are already weak to these tendencies in their roots.

it`s the most difficult thing to do something if it`s not in direct experience, how to do anything if no one speaks truth? there are so many people who claim truth, but to what cost does it go? how to do something if you are powerless but power is the last thing you would want to hold?

@Gnostic Christian i blessed only the ones forsaken, it`s not satanic, we usually forsake ourselves. that`s what christ teaches us.

the male and female painbody are one in the end it doesn`t matter from which side it came from, it doesn`t really matter who started it, it matters for you because of the personal relation where the agression came from. what really matters is where it ends, if love can`t end it what else can?

awareness comes first, doesn`t it? the network of our psyche reaches deep, sometimes into history sometimes into space sometimes into our own bodies of fears and create new connections of karma within us and within others. you know you have the right one if you can talk about it with her and you both are able to untangle the karmik reappearence of incidents, make peace with the past and figure out a way to protect what is there to protect for each other. that`s the law of peacemaking protect what there is to protect. there is just one and there are many.

@tsuki it´s ok tsuki i sometimes hate males, too.

this night before the rooster crows twice you will have denied me eight times. god bless

coffee mugs lol

@milii a career can be reestablished and if the relationship was toxic there are probably high chances that the next one is better. it`s like a wound that`s fresh and of course it is bleeding and hurtfull in the beginning. so you need to stitch yourself together and let it heal. take some time off if you can, spend some time somewhere else if you can, go into nature if you can, watch some sunsets and then some sunrises. cry the tears you need to cry and then pull yourself out again, no one will laugh about you anymore, if they really even do.

even the military is now dissappointed, i guess it will be hard for him. if the votes where today he would probably loose.

well, the next days we can observe how nicely all of them worked together, at the moment it`s erdogan who moves. it actually lost a little bit of the comic character. a phonecall here a phoncall there buhaahhhahhhaa. i just count the phonecalls.

@EternalForest in some aspects you are contradicting yourself, as a lot of american culture you describe exists only because of mingling of culture. also the cultural missionary of exactly hollywood made everything more monotonous than it was before. so in some sense what you are so proudly pointing out as special is what generated mainstream culture. in sense of art there can be a global culture while still preserving authenticity as long as authenticity is allowed to take place in sense of something called critical regionalism in architecture, i don‘t know if there is a term like critical culturalism for what you describe - but in a lot of cases it turns out to be as critical individualism. so in that sense there are two forces that influence each other and feed each other one that strives for individual/group expression and one that strives to adapt and integrate - the process is not reversible.

it sounded like you where afraid of flying your own plane instead of falling. if it was a misinterpretation then don’t trust in the tree, who ever saw trees flying a plane?

are you talking about a plane or about a fear or about a fear of planes? if you want to hold a plane up just trust a little bit into the tree that keeps the plane flying - in reality it’s not really more dangerous than entering a bus or a car or walking under coconut trees. if you want to you can fly everything! you could even become a pilot. just have a little trust in yourself!

@Nahm what if both appletree stories are just some really fitting self fulfilling prophesies that fit the ego mind quite well? science loves it mostly just as much as most religions.

rather than thinking about gravity, realize how you pick them up over and over again. now realize what is bringing things up and what is pulling them down. newton is not about the distinction, he is about relativity. even the apple story is relatively genius.

weed will not really help you that much in the long run, it is more sedating than pushing and it’s addictive with symptoms of withdrawal when you stop. it can also make you more self biased and has a tendency in making people psychotic who already have issues. you even can have a bad hangover the morning after that tears you down, and i would be very attentive if you then have a more aggressive behavior than the day before. if you have any social anxiety it will make it probably worse. of course you can try out every drug you want to, but don’t wonder if you find out about all the controversials of the drug - a lot of people are in denial about the sideeffects promoting weed being less harmful than they want it to be. even the mentioning of it helping to chill out is a denial about needing it to chill out, instead of finding a solution to chill out without the substance, it’s like saying i watch movies because i can relax with it. weed is not bad in that sense, but it’s one of the drugs that are more underestimated than cigarettes and sometimes even sugar. weed is not a skill, it’s a substance.

there is a difference in accepting the body and still embracing being a transgender and not accepting the transgender part in the soul. even the hormone stuff seems ok for women if it’s about preventing unwanted pregnancy. so what the fuck are you guys talking about, except if it isn’t about own fears. there have been people over centuries who enjoyed changing their gender roles. of course hormones should be talked through with a doctor and i hope doctors ask some questions regarding why and if people are sure about their decision before they give out hormones. an additional therapy is probably supporting - but we have gone through a long history of denial about homosexuality and transsexuality and if a person is able to live a happy life with it today it’s because there are already enough examples of people who do, their community is more truthful to each other in a lot of cases than the people in denial. gender disphoria in a lot of cases comes probably because people still are afraid to stand to their preferences in sexuality and about belonging to a group. so i guess gender disphoria is still something that needs to be questioned in both directions why can’t a person be both? the true self in many cases can only be found by accepting the existence of the own preferences and denials about fears that exist in all people.

regarding your own theory self hatred is a form of love. if self hatred was not existent only a devil would be beyond learning. the greatest devilry is to project denial of source and effect.

and the pope was the antichrist. he was reforming the church not the old greeks. there is a huge difference. he was not known for his good manners as well but for the impertinence to call out devilries of the church. someone who spoke up against what was going wrong. doesn`t mean he was enlightened. luther quotes are usually very rude - he was a rude man and an ego and male biased fanatic.

@Key Elements some people say, everything is politics. but you could also say everything is philosophy, everything is psychology everything is theory everything is practice, everything is spirituality, everything is process everything is maya, everything is a problem everything is a solution everything is as it is. everything is everything. this thread was about a parade wasn`t it? i just pointed out that the direction it was going was low consciousness politics

@Key Elements well it gets somewhere, it gets to how preoccupied people are while searching for their personal happyness. china is in a problematic situation, because they are to decide between two roots. actually in sense of gender equality they are pretty much on the same level as a lot of western democratic countries or maybe comparable to other asian countries in many cases even more progressive. but in sense of politics they are very blue and authoritarian, what partially is because the culture moved from an empire to communism, although they are not really as they are capitalistic, what makes exactly the problem they have to face now with what happens in hong kong. the tension between both parties is pointing to the conflict between theory and practice and even brings them in conflict with their bible. in that sense maybe chinas leaders really would do good and sit down on a table with the protesters, what will be difficult beacuse they have no leaders, maybe exactly because of the fear in mainland with which they hold up the stability in the country. the fear is on both sides. but i think china could profit enormously of a peacefull solution. practice will show. it`s enormously heated up and i really hope there will be a solution without using forces.

wow, this thread is such a good example for chauvinism be it on a political level or about male chauvinism. it`s not only sexistic but also racistic and doesn`t have much to do with people getting shot while protesting for democratic rights anymore. it is ending orange/read in such a disgusting way, that mentioning low level sexism is not even enough to call it out. once you go anti fascistic you never go chauvinistic again. even if people claim to not being both. or in sense of china, why do they forget their roots? both historical and political? china mainland could be proud of revolutionary forces, but it seems only to be a show. all just for sexual equality? because that`s all what really got better. if china would want to keep the peace they would give the structures in hong kong a chance to show how democracy could work for them, to go into a better future. it`s such a chance to scientifically observe without "observation" democracy within china, why don`t they take the hand that is reaching out to them?

@lmfao think about the timing, if you move out and then get off medication soon after, it could be more dangerous than maybe change the medication while you are still at home, where you feel more stable. but if you move out soon, first try to get comfy in the new situation before you change the meds. better too slow than too fast. then you can also see if it`s the meds or maybe that you need more a shared housing what stabilizes you more. of course if it`s shared housing you need to feel into it, what kind of shared housing you would need, some are probably counterproductive to stability aswell.

vador, vadari, vadatus be careful you are not falling back into blue.
