The problem with the argument most people make for the US not being the planet’s s police is that it fails to take into account how such a situation arose in the first place, why it still is and the ramifications of a suddenly the US had its military cut into half and no longer played the role over the course of say one presidential term. It’s not as simple as just cutting budgets and taking troops home. Sure, an audit could be performed and cutting the budget of the military is needed but it isn’t as simple as brining troops home. The balance of power I think is something people take for granted.

throwing one of their own under the bus

there is a good video of a lawyer explaining this possible scenario. I can't find it but it was good and basically he would be escorted out by the military.

I'll check out the manga. I saw the anime and it was really good.

I wonder if he will participate in the inauguration of Biden or if this will be the first time in recent memory that a president skips it entirely

I eat a pound of salmon a week at least... need to do this detox soon ._.

yeah I posted this in the election thread. reminded me of this guy.

I knew you would post something good in here

I would say that first off it's realizing that there is no "best way." It is far more complex and the best arguments and most functional notions will be dynamic and incorporative. Shapiro's can sometimes be hard to debunk because there is an element of truth to them that is woven into the fabric of the argument. Each argument or notion is different and a truly skilled and deep thinker will be open to all possibilities and complexities. My reply is kinda abstract but it's sort of how it is. There is no best way just better habits and ways of approaching issues and looking for integrative solutions.

hmm this is an interesting way of defining foregiveness. I haven't thought of it like this before. this is helpful, thanks

yeah you are right. for instance I don't think some person who plots out some terrible rape or murder even though they may appear articulate is doing so from a place of no suffering or selfless love but out of some deep seeded fear or pain.

my last few trips were terrible so I'm taking a break from psychedelics till I have a firm footing

this is just spiritual mumbo jumbo at this point. it has yet to be integrated into the relative for me. it's easy preaching stuff like this until someone wrongs you on a deep level and you have to practice what you preach. hmm this is helpful. it's easy to judge them but if I was to experiencing their point of view with whatever means they have I would likely be making similar choices they are.

This already happens with the unfortunate circumstances of ignorance. If anything it being legal will allow for a system to be built so some kid knows not to take 7grams of mushrooms or some person doesn’t die at some unsanctioned retreat.

You seem to be the ones making (I think) claims without even saying what they are. I’m not wasting my time reading some random book because some people on this site seem to be worried about something they aren’t even bothering to articulate what they are talking about.

from the bio of the book: ""COVID-19: The Great Reset" is a guide for anyone who wants to understand how COVID-19 disrupted our social and economic systems, and what changes will be needed to create a more inclusive, resilient and sustainable world going forward." ok? what exactly am I supposed to be alarmed about? you're setting up a scarecrow but at the same time not even explaining what it's about. what exactly are you trying to say?

what points are you all trying to make? what are your claims? you guys sound quite presumptuous and suspicious but never articulate what exactly the problem is.

are you going to release a video on this soon?

"if we only count votes for republicans and don't count votes for democrats we won!"

There won't be another lockdown in the US. A country of this scale just isn't developed enough to coordinate such an effort not to mention there being a huge lack of institutional support in all areas of government. Smaller, less polarized countries with better welfare systems can pull it off but not the US.

I just wonder if I'll see a stage green revolution in my life time or if it's going to be one long battle out of blue/orange :\

I feel myself getting more dumb every time I see a JP video

doesn't sound like he had a breakthrough. even my worst trip on aya was incredibly profound and grew me a bunch even though it left me messed up for a long time after.
