I think this thread is the appropriate place to talk about this, but where did Leo go? He last was on this forum on Saturday.

Conservative Muslims in the Middle East are horrified by anything LGBT, yet they excuse adults having sex with and marrying kids because the Prophet Muhammad or some obscure tribal code permits it.

Behind the scenes of the Trump campaign.

This idea that Trump is going to be better for peace is laughable and anyone who believes this should be ashamed of themselves.

This is an anti-Semitic meme which began on 4chan.

House of Representatives set to go to GOP, though not everything has been called yet. Senate is firmly GOP.

I actually to some extent agree with this. The influx of mass migration has been costly to many cities which don't have the resources to house all of the migrants, and this transgender stuff scares ordinary people.

The innocent days of Newton and Einstein are long gone.

This is normal, because every code has its excesses and unhealthy expressions. We as a society need ORANGE's creative ingenuity, without its Laissez faire attitude towards everything.

Today will be the day when we find out whether our country's center of gravity is blue/ORANGE (with regressions into Nationalist and theocratic BLUE accompanied by RED corruption) , or ORANGE/green (which is where I personally place Harris and her supporters).

I recently began watching this Netflix series, Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. It's really good, and based off of an actual criminal case. Has anyone else watched it? Also, what are your thoughts on the Menendez brothers? Did they deserve to be convicted and given a life sentence? Should they be released?

I asked Chat GPT to write a love letter written by Stalin, complete with Communist puns. My Dearest [Lover’s Name], I write to you with a heart that burns as brightly as the fires of revolution. You have seized the means of my affection and redistributed it wholly unto yourself – a glorious takeover that I welcome with fervor. In your presence, I am but a worker, laboring tirelessly in the service of our shared passion. Your beauty is like a five-year plan for my soul, carefully orchestrated and undeniably effective in achieving its goals: complete and total devotion. From each according to their ability, to each according to their need – and, my darling, I am in great need of you. You are the comrade who has collectivized my heart, taking ownership in a way that no other could ever achieve. When I think of a life without you, it feels as bleak as a Siberian winter. But with you, my dearest, it is as if spring has come early, thawing the coldest depths of my being. You are not just a love, but a movement, a revolution that has transformed my world. I pledge my loyalty to you as steadfastly as I do to the state. And rest assured, this loyalty is unbreakable, unwavering, and eternal. Together, we shall march forward, hand in hand, comrades in love, united in purpose. Let us build a future where our love reigns supreme, where each kiss is an act of solidarity, and every embrace, a testament to our cause. Yours in eternal comradeship, Joseph

Me to Chat GPT: Take this quote, and translate it into a more modern English so I can understand it: “For ourselves, we shall not trouble you with specious pretenses — either of how we have a right to our empire because we overthrew the Persians, or are now attacking you because of wrong that you have done us — and make a long speech which would not be believed; and in return we hope that you, instead of thinking to influence us by saying that you did not join the Lakedaemonians, although their colonists, or that you have done us no wrong, will aim at what is feasible, holding in view the real sentiments of us both; since you know as well as we do that right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.” ChatGPT response: Here’s a modernized version of the quote: “We’re not going to waste your time with fake excuses about how we deserve our empire because we defeated the Persians, or say that we’re attacking you because you wronged us. We won’t make a long speech you wouldn’t believe anyway. In return, we hope you won’t try to sway us by claiming you didn’t side with the Spartans, even though you’re connected to them, or that you’ve done us no harm. Instead, let’s be realistic and face the actual situation. You and we both know that fairness only exists between equals; in reality, the powerful do what they want, and the weak have to accept it.” This retains the core message about power dynamics and the futility of debating moral rights when there’s a clear imbalance of power.

When I try to post a serious thread in this sub section of the forum, it gets zero replies. Meanwhile, threads about women having sex with kids get 44 replies.

At the 7:00 minute mark, Rudy Giuliani suggests that Palestinian toddlers are military combatants.

@Abe27 I felt the same way. I don’t have autism, but I did see personality mirrors with myself and Alek.

This was a fascinating lecture I watched about the link between Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and criminality. The basics of this lecture was how those with ASD might be more susceptible to criminality due to impaired empathy and theory of mind. Theory of mind (ToM) is the ability to understand that other people have mental states, like beliefs, knowledge, and intentions. It's a cognitive ability that allows people to make predictions about others' behaviors and explain why they act in certain ways. ToM is basically the ability to build accurate mental models of other people's minds, specifically to understand their intentions and how they are feeling. A person with ASD has difficulty doing these things, hence has difficulty socializing, which can lead to social isolation. Background videos: Main video:

Hey y'all. I originally wanted to post this in November; maybe we can keep this thread alive until then, but I received an email that my mail in ballot was going to be mailed to me very soon, and I saw on the news that early voting began in some states. Instructions: Click on this link: https://www.isidewith.com/ Then select: Take the quiz! In this thread, post your results below, preferably an image. Also, just in time for the upcoming election, now I think would be an excellent time to brush up on Conscious Politics by rewatching the videos. This is an excellent way to remind us exactly what the conscious politics subforum is about, and what we are doing here.

Deep dive into his psychological analysis.

I would much prefer knowing my friendly neighborhood pedophile was banging a sex-doll than hurting real kids. Pedophilia cannot be stopped, a pedophile cannot just decide to be attracted to MILFs overnight. This is a good way for them to release their urges, which, again, they cannot control n'or suppress forver.

I’m not going to watch this because I already know it’s going to be terrible.

It’s a decent idea, because it would allow pedophiles to release their sexual urges without hurting real children.

In Leo's guerilla business advice video (https://www.actualized.org/insights/guerilla-business-advice), he talked about how if someone watches and reads too much left wing political content, then they will be thoroughly convinced that it is impossible to boot strap themselves. I'm kind of in that rut now. I'm trying to boot strap myself but I have so much limiting beliefs. That I'm not smart enough, that the capitalist economy is sabotaging me, etc... My greatest feeling that I'm not smart enough to know computer programming, and that I'm a loser who hates myself and my own life. I feel as if my IQ is not great enough, given my academic dysfunctions. Sure, left wing content did a number of my self-esteem, but my insecurities about my academics and IQ are my biggest inhibitor Is it possible to bootstrap myself? What about Capitalism? Even Leo himself alluded to this in his theory on escaping wage slavery, as well as his video response to the founder of Whole Foods. That society is a pyramid scheme where those on the top of the structure leach from those at the bottom, and the successful Capitalist countries are only successful because they leach value from the poorer countries, such as in the case of the CFA Franc system. The reasons as to why most people are poor, according to Leo, is because they don't have enough capital to bootstrap themselves. And even if they do have the capital, they're so squeezed for time as a result of the 9-5 system, that at the end of the day after work, all they want to do is sit on the couch and watch television. I want to learn computer programming, and leverage that into a career or even a business centered around my passions, but all of my friends think I'm retarded and that this will never work. Your thoughts? Will capitalism or my low IQ prevent me from achieving this?
