The amount of immaturity and self deception I’ve worked through over the years

Peace of mind is my number one goal in life I think. Central to how I go about creating balance and maturity in my life. Chasing fame or purpose or wealth is all nonsense. Though, wealth building is part of peace of mind.

I don’t know what is true. But, I have a deep respect for Israel. I have a deep respect for the innocent of Palestine. I hope for Peace and healing. I Hope i have not offended anyone in this thread. I wish you Peace and health. “Out Beyond Ideas of Wrongdoing and Rightdoing Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, There is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, The world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even the phrase each other Doesn't make any sense.” - Rumi

@Danioover9000 Interesting interpretation. Thanks for sharing. I watched it, I don't know what is true. I generally watch things but don't cling to hard. But, I would question that interpretation as well. What if they were trying to figure out what was true? Not, simply twist things towards their bias? Or, what if they are biased toward one side, for some reason, and wanted to make one side look bad? How do we make that distinction when we watch news? How do we know the news sources we listen to are accurate? How do we know our interpretations of the news we watch is accurate and/or of high quality? How can we notice when our biases and triggers are distorting what is actually being said? How can we see or be aware of the bias of the particular news source we are listening to? How does recontextualization and insight play into understanding complex social situations and conflicts? What role does listening and observing multiple perspectives play into understanding what is true in a situation?

Don't just fear the famous guys. There are so many out there who you'll never hear of. Learn to spots the signs for sure.

Don’t turn solipsism into an identity or ideology. Why did it matter what the Buddha did? What do YOU do?

Have been a few threads on this already

Interesting to see it what is now piles of rubble

@Merkabah Star Yes, but their presentation is biased. Just watch the videos themselves and think you what think. Listen to the soldiers themselves what do they say?

How to know?

A vial of hope and a vial of pain In the light they both looked the same Poured them out on into the world On every boy and every girl It's in the neon Bible, the neon Bible Not much chance for survival If the neon Bible is right Take the poison of your age Don't lick your fingers when you turn the page What I know is what you know is right In the city it's the only light It's the neon Bible, the neon Bible Not much chance for survival If the Neon Bible is right Oh God! well look at you now! Oh, you lost it but you don't know how In the light of a golden calf Oh God, I had to laugh Take the poison of your age Don't lick your fingers when you turn the page It was wrong but you said it was right In the future I will read at night In the neon Bible, the neon Bible Not much chance for survival If the Neon Bible is true

Deux! Trois! Dis: Miroir Noir! Black mirror! Un! Deux! Trois! Dis: Miroir Noir! Black mirror! Black mirror Black mirror Their names are never spoken The curse is never broken Their names are never spoken The curse is never broken Mirror, mirror on the wall Show me where them bombs will fall Mirror, mirror on the wall Show me where them bombs will fall Black mirror Black mirror Black mirror Black mirror Black mirror Black mirror Black mirror

I do not wish to judge others in ways that demonize. I see humanity doing its best with what it has. I see the good in you. Don’t you worry.

Reality is complicated. I seek to understand it. I want to understand humanity. I must understand myself.

He is a biased actor in the situation. So, when you read his responses simply realize his survival interests. Israel needs to believe it is good and right to kill tens or hundreds of thousands. In their mind this is a good thing. It’s bad for everyone else who has biases against killing and starving and wounding that many people. People tend prefer and base their views around what is good for them. Also assume the information he is surrounded by and the background he comes from. Then, do the same thing for yourself. You also have biases that shape your world view.

😄 of course you think that they think the same thing.
