  1. Now Leo have posted a new index (this time with freedom of press) confirming his bias of development and saying that the maps superpose and show the same result. Press freedom? how about creating a map in which you can see when and where the US have destroyed free speech and expresion in the global south whenever their people, political expressions and opinions are not aligned with its interests. It's not that hard to see that they have destabilized entire countries that don't line up with them by corrupting their governments with money or economical blackmail and killing everyone who oposses to that. That would be an amazing map to contemplate ... You can also add maps showing the locations of US military bases around the world and another showing the wars that they have promoted since the ending of WWII and see how they overlap, you might find some interesting patterns related to your press freedom. And what about adding to our comparison all the places where European countries and the USA have extracted resources relentlessly (since the 1600s) to create their technology (for instance all the rubber that they plunder like barbarians from the amazon to build their cars and roads, just for starters) It will be interesting to compare all your maps and graphics and ask why all those countries are "underdeveloped" and how the USA and Europeans have played their part in all this. Nothing new under the sun, western people are so deluded that they love to play blind despite the overwhelming evidence of their barbaric ways. The funny thing is that even in their own country they are repressed every time they want to protest. What happened to all the students peacefully protesting againts the war on gaza? do you call that freedom? Not to mention that all their opinions and culture is not organic but shaped and engineered by social media owners and sponsors and you call that advanced and developed press, ridiculous! In summary I think you have to start studying maps outside the your box of delusion so you can have a better assesment of your "civilization" and development.
  2. I´ve been watching some of this guy speeches and oh lord how accurate he describes the main point of these topic.
  3. many chimpanzees around believing they are developed as fuck, we should start a mega thread with examples of monkeys running amok
  4. "1st world" technology is not yours it is built upon the suffering and slavement of other people which at least make that technology also their own by some extent and that's what I want you to consider. Being on top of the domination system doesn't make you more developed you are just better at violence and that's just animal behavior devoid of any higher values proper of developed human beings. It seems to me that development is not something that is proper to one group or the other but an emcompassing concept that should be measured as a whole. Hierarchical distinctions are just ego driven and don't let us see the interconectedness of the development of human beings because we are all in this together.
  5. Believing there is a 1st 2nd and 3rd world is already worrying... it shows that type of hierarchical thinking very common in colonialists and opressors. Guess who is behind zionists? Great Britain in the beginning and then USA after WWII. Yes the west is very bad at handling terrorism but they are champions creating the conditions for it to flourish and using it to advance their war agenda that kept them on top for some decades but as everything unfair and irrational is unsustainable and we are now seeing how the boomerang is coming back.
  6. Yeah I am also done it is useless to make westerners with poor history awareness to realize how vile their foundations are, keep enjoying your well deserved wealth and development and dismissing any alternative perspective in which genocide, slavery and asymetric war is not the most advanced way of being.
  7. You are right the "blah blah blah" and the hot dog analogy are unbeatable.
  8. And what about the buyer, is he/she psychologycally healthy? Is the opressor healthier (more developed) than the opressed? I disagree, to my mind more developed means more loving and that's why I don't see a man using his material power to sexually enslave a vulnerable human being as "superior". Moreover, when you watch interviews of prostitutes and alike in channels like soft white underbelly is quite surprising how much these people had suffered in life and keep being victimized by opressors like their pimps and mainly their customers, they don't have the power to fight back, they are enslaved psychologycally and materially and you can't talk about development when a human being doesn't have a choice or the capacity to chose (a healthy context to thrive?, curiously more often that not you will find lofty motives behind their prostitution and I doubt you can find loving motives behind a prostitute customer buying bodies to poorly satisfy their sexual cravings and unhealthy psyche. I still dont understand how the opressor is the more developed one. Is the white man more developed just because he is powerful enough to do things like this or is he the real barbarian in this civilization/barbaric dichotomy fueled by the modern narrative and economic system?
  9. A man abusing prostitutes is not developed is just a savage that doesn't understand how a weak human being is not there for being abused but to be helped and healed.
  10. Recently Leo asserted that the west is more developed than the rest of the world because they have lower rates of slavery but when you look around the website of the research you will find that the countries that contribute the most with the slavery (their lifestyle and the things they buy) are the richest ones, they only displace slavery to someplace where they can't see it directly. That's not so developed in my opinion and make me think that westerners always think they are superior because they are in the upper end of the slavery system that has been developing since the advent of the modern world. What do you think?
  11. Today I was doing my philosophy homework and surprisingly it was about God. Enjoy!
  12. Hi Leo I've been working for an assignment in my school about homo sapiens evolution. Mainstream books put genetic randomness as the cause for the development of abstract concepts in the sapiens language, but something tells me –besides mckenna's theory of the stone ape and your teachings– that this huge leap in the consciousness of the sapiens is related mainly to the access of some of them to the power of psychedelics, allowing these psychonauts pioneers to construct abstract concepts and creating the need to communicate their findings in these new realms to their fellow sapiens in form of art and language. One huge difference between the homo sapiens and the other hominids is the ability to comunicate things that "don't exist". That characteristic is linked with our capacity to gather around concepts and ideologies that seemingly were a decisive factor in the erradication of the other species of humans back then since it permit us to form strong alliances and bigger social structures. I see some connections with your teachings but I haven´t heard you talk about this possible explanation for the homo sapiens leap in consciousness and would be very grateful if you can explore this important piece of the human history that will increase substantially our understanding of the human development. Also, I'd like to discuss why they continued to be so unloving and selfish, to the point of erradicating their own hominid brothers even after tasting the wisdom of God. Thank you Leo, love your work.
