Perfect example! My family has always hated Roma people. I was with my relatives over the summer and there was an older woman who knew my grandmother before she died. She was telling a story about how gypsies would sneak into our family garden with baskets and steal strawberries, and our family would have to chase them away with guns.

This is absolutely the most retarded political take I have ever heard in my life, and I have been following politics since middle school because that was when Donald Trump first entered the Republican primaries. The reason why Rwanda is able to be in the top 10 in gender equality is not because men died disproportionally in the Rwandan genocide. This is the perfect example of correlation does not equal causation. The reason why Rwanda is able to be so equal is because its' institutions. It's one of the most safe and least corrupt African countries. In economics, it's set to be the worlds next Switzerland or Singapore. The other African countries don't have the luxury to worry about gender equality, because they suffer from so much corruption, war, poverty, and disease.

I also like this video, where it’s Kyle Kulinski listing off concrete policy reasons to vote for Biden.

There was a recent blog post from Leo that I really liked because it reminded me of Islam. Which reminds me of this quote from the Qur'an https://wikiislam.net/wiki/Allah,_the_Best_Deceiver_(Qur'an_3:54)

Not only is God the greatest deceiver, he is the only deceiver. Its rumored that when enlightened people read Abrahamic texts, they can understand what the texts actually mean beyond the metaphors.

Because the Soviet Union fell and China liberalised.

The Soviet Union and Maoist China already beat you to it.

First and foremost I would establish Esperanto as the official 'Earth language'.

In your blog post Poor Leonard Suskind, Leonard asks: 9) “Why do so many human beings believe in GOD?” And you responded with You will find this very difficult to believe but here’s the honest answer: for the exact same reason that most human beings believe in the existence of the Sun. Could you please elaborate on this? Like, simple people who intuitively believe in God, is there a wisdom to it? These people are often mocked by atheist comedians and anti-religious crusaders such as Richard Dawkins as being stupid and backwards hicks. But from what I intuit from your blog post as that these people are seeing something that the scientists don't see due to the brainwashing the scientist had to go through to get his PhD. So could you please elaborate on this comment? Why is average people believing in God as obvious as believing in the Sun. Do these people intuit God from nature's beauty, or something like that?

Of course, SDi taught us this.

So the believers are one up on the scientist in this regard because they're being more open minded whereas the scientist screeches for proof?

Because there's different interpretations of absolute truth with get passed through different cultural filters. Even without organized religion, very highly conscious, spiritualty ''woke'' people are always disagreeing with each other. Which is precisely why the Buddha placed such an emphasis at verifying and arriving at truths on your own.

I wanted to get links that would embed, could not figure out how to do that. If any of the mods would like to edit this post and embed all the images from the links below and re-upload them on this thread, please do so. Also, @Leo Gura, please fix the Drag files here to attach section of this forum. Every time I try to upload an image, I get this error message: Now to the topic. At the Smithsonian museum in Washington D.C., there is an exhibition for Asian art, a lot of which reminded me of Actualized.org. Some of the teachings I read reminded me of Leo's videos. Recently, they opened up a room specifically dedicated to Buddhist shrines.
