  1. Prejudice against handicapped people existed back then too. Remember this was the time that the Nazis were euthanizing people with physical disabilities. The normal route for someone who was death and blind was to die in a sanitarium. The only thing wrong with Helen Keller was that her external senses didn’t work but she still had a fully functioning brain. She was fully human and the brain is remarkably adaptable and can compensate for lack of senses. Anne Sullivan was a brilliant teacher who had the compassion to connect Keller with the world. She wasn't less human because she didn't have sight and hearing. This was an advance of civilization which is why it was recognized by the great men of that day – presidents, scientists, authors, and inventors. It takes compassion to have real intelligence. Psychedelics doesn’t give you that.
  2. His research was looking at tic tok videos.
  3. Hellen Keller met with Albert Einstein twice and he recognized her as an intellectual peer. The video of this post is classical conspiracy theory. It's like the videos saying man didn't land on the moon because of a shadow in an image couldn't have been caste that way on the moon. But if you would ask a NASA engineer he would give you the explanation. These conspiracy theories give easy money to unscrupulous scammers. That guy is just repeating what has already spread on the Internet. But few people will actually dig into the archives to find the truth. Social media is trash and is degrading our civilization.
  4. She utlilized tactile analogies, sensory translations, and an extensive mastery of descriptive language taught to her by her instructor Anne Sullivan. By the way, this has been extensively documented and the information is out there. That is why she was famous.

  5. You don't have proof for what you said. It is based on a prejudice that a severly handicapped person (compared to a monkey) can't produce anything of value. We are entering the post truth era. There are millions of people who now believe that AI slop is reality and that made up images are real. This should be the real concern.
  6. He mentioned one plagarism scandel that has been extensively reviewed by historians. Even Mark Twain defended them both. Helen Keller continued her prolific writings for 30 years after the death of Anne Sullivan.
  7. I watched the video and he presented no evidence of fraud. He is just using speculation to say it couldn't happen. It's a conspiracy theory like flat earth. As for credibility, comparing a carefully documented story in the 1940s, when honesty standards were still high, versus social media slop - it's not even close.
  8. People were actually more honest and careful in those days during the days when you didn't command your youtube subscribers to hit like and subscribe. is there any evidence that helen keller was a fraud? "No, there is no credible historical or medical evidence that Helen Keller was a fraud. Extensive primary sources, including medical records, university files from Radcliffe College, peer-reviewed historical research, and eyewitness accounts, verify her deafblindness and her achievements. [1, 2] Modern allegations of fraud largely originate from viral social media misinformation. Historians and disability advocates classify these modern doubts as forms of ableism, driven by the false premise that a deafblind individual is incapable of high-level communication and literacy. [1, 2, 3]" Viral Misinformation: Platforms like TikTok generated viral trends under hashtags like #HelenKellerWasntReal. These videos claim her existence or her books were entirely fabricated."
  9. Philosophical discussions of anger remind me of Buddha’s parable of the poison arrow. A man was shot by a poison arrow but won’t let anyone remove the arrow until they can explain who shot him. Anger is both energetic and conceptual. There is always a story with it. The feelings provide the juice that makes the anger alive. When I feel anger arise, I also fully feel the suffering that it brings. My body then makes the connection and automatically drops the story. It’s like if you hold an object that suddenly becomes hot, your hand will reflexively open and let it go. You actually don’t need anger to do anything that you need to do.
  10. Unicult is the only one I have seriously thought of joining. They openly call themselves a cult, as noted by the name, to filter out people who don’t want to belong to a cult.
  11. Theories Regarding Federal Ties Speculation that Bilzerian is a federal agent or "fed" usually stems from his legal history and military background. Navy SEAL Training: He underwent SEAL training but was dropped shortly before graduation for a safety violation. Some online theorists suggest this was a "cover" for deeper involvement in intelligence services. Legal "Invincibility": Skeptics often point to his ability to avoid serious prison time despite high-profile legal issues, such as a 2014 explosives arrest or federal indictments involving his company, Ignite. Controlled Narrative: Within certain "America First" or anti-establishment circles, there is ongoing debate about whether his recent shift toward radical populism is a genuine change or a federally-directed effort to lead young men into more extreme, and thus easily monitorable, political spaces

  13. My experience is that if anger arises there is suffering.
  14. Is it possible to be in a state of anger and not suffer?
  15. If you have a real teacher, you are developing authenticity which you can only do with another person. A real teacher isn't transmitting dogma.
