It's a travesty how many Americans only speak one language.

Why exactly are YouTube shorts a “plague on my mind”.

I'm going through a dilemma, both about my future as well as a small identity crisis. I'm wondering which country I should live in and I'm split between my two options, how do I go about deciding such things? I'm considering both which culture I like, as well as development of the country, job prospects, etc... I'm also split between where do I fit into the two options (countries) I've selected for myself. Which country am I ‘more of '. Where do I belong? Who and what am I? How do I decide such things?

I'm already a citizen of both Russia and the USA.

Chat GPT gives good advice, but preferably I want to hear from real humans who went through what I'm going through. Even if you didn't leave your country but had to make a difficult choice between two cities, your advice is welcome.

This is the ultimate tragedy of GREEN kindness and acceptance, which is that they expand their acceptance and kindness too far to all of the degenerate hooligan elements of the society (in other words, RED). GREEN needs to implement a smarter version of compassion,which does not accept RED as it acknowledges how dangerous RED is. But GREEN will never do that because that's """discriminatory""". RED promptly exploits this for its own selfish purposes.

I am so ashamed to be a citizen of that country (Russia).

I read it found so many flaws in its interpretation of history.

I really like this video:

This is a really good thing. Being of immigrant parents and growing up in the U.S.A., I was always shocked at just how little my fellow classmates knew about the world around them. I remember mentioning Saudi Arabia when in a class discussion about Islam, because it was my religion at the time, and my fellow classmates literally did not know what that country was or that it exists. I've been traveling to different countries each year since I was a child, but mostly to Russia and Eastern Europe so that we could visit relatives.

I've been going through a depression recently, over reflecting of all the experiences I missed out on. I went to a Community College for three years, it was only supposed to take two years but I messed up, got poor grades, had to drop and retake courses and I finished in three years. After that, my Community College grades just were never good, and the only school that accepted me was the one I dreaded most at having to go. This school that I'm currently in is notorious for not having a party and social scene. I looked on Instagram, before I deleted my account, and I see people who in the past two years while I was in the Community College, really living it up. They are going to parties, studying abroad, dating, and all that stuff. College is supposed to be when you really explore yourself, other people, and have the 'best four years of you life', and the 'college experience'. But because I go to a University which is notorious for not having any parties or social scene, I will probably never be able to do any of that. Also, not all of my Community College credits transferred through, so including this semester, I'll graduate within three years instead of two like I was hoping. I will never know what it is like to be a young, stupid, and free person having the time of his life. I missed out on teen love, and now I'm missing out on the college experience. Within three years, I'll be a miserable wagie dragging himself to the office just like how I miserably drag myself to the classroom. I'll never know what it's like to have a group of my friends walk through a college town or a street in Paris and have fun at clubs. That's it, I missed out. Even if I do get a girlfriend after graduating, firstly, she has been through 30+ chad/fratboy dicks. Secondly, she would no longer be a young and careless free person. After college, people are all formal stiffs who don't live the young person life anymore. They've gone through it and are over it, and are too mature to live like that anymore.

Why is InfoWars not on this list?

bump as reminder to Leo please.

I think this documentary is a really great complementary piece to Leo’s recent blog post on the Hasidic Jews of New York, and how culture and religion become a reality of its own. It’s super fascinating, the content is different. Instead of Hasidic Judaism, it’s veneration of the Great Patriotic War, and nationalism. Ever since the beginning of the Special Military Operation, Russian culture has been becoming increasingly more Fascistic and militaristic. You can go to any Russian city and see Z posters and art on streets and buses. It’s really scary thinking about how far Russia devolved.

I log onto twitter and I see this: https://www.businesstoday.in/latest/in-focus/story/who-is-acharya-vidyasagar-maharaj-the-jain-seer-pm-modi-met-in-chhattisgarh-404633-2023-11-05 I had to look up, who is 'Acharya Shri', so I searched on google. And what do I see? A naked guy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acharya_Vidyasagar *sigh*

@Leo Gura Friendly reminder to please make that blogpost. I don’t mean to be irritating to you. But that documentary really brings me back to a lot of the childhood indoctrination I received when I was younger, and it would mean a lot to me for you to write a blog post expressing your thoughts on it.

Osho made a very good point, that when Bodhidharma said that an awakened person drops their clothes, he did not LITERALLY mean to drop their clothes. Clothes was a metaphor for the egoic false self.

If you bothered to read the OP, I go to a University with a completely dead social scene and no parties.

If that’s the case, then these two videos are also really complementary: Growing up in Russian culture to a Russian family, I received my fair share of brainwashing regarding the Great Patriotic War. I watched the parades every year as a young child, listened to stories from veterans, etc… One of the strangest sights I’ve ever witnessed in my life was witnessing a middle aged woman teacher of this Russian language tutoring school begin to cry, because this one toddler she was teaching thought the Germans won the war. I was confused as to why she was so upset, as it was just a toddler. But Don Beck made a good point about how there is nothing Green about 20th century Communism. Ken Wilber as well made the great point that it didn’t matter at the time whether someone was a fundamentalist Christian or a card carrying Communist Party member, the memetic structures in the mind and society were identical.

Is he correct? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwqxdCGCDE8
