I actually went down the rabbit hole with this guy yesterday. To be honest I do think part of his gimmick is that he sees how much attention he gets for basically doing this “looksmaxxing” meme stuff. He really leaned into it and just from a marketing / click perspective it sets his videos up so they are kinda funny to watch and go viral due to how ridiculous and outrageous they can get. Apart from that he he’s now grifting a looks course and stuff so he’s able to grift insecure people this way, also it seems a lot of his followers send donations to him to talk to him on his stream. I have no clue why anyone would pay $5 to send this guy a message. The new generation is really so lonely. Apart from all that I don’t think he really cares about red pill or politics. He has 100% leaned into the looks thing and I think wants to run with that gimmick hard. If the trend on that moves on, which it will, he will probably then pivot to being more political or whatever else is popular with young men and incels who spend money on stake us.

Did you have to pay out of pocket for these repairs or was plumbing by insurance? My parents live in Vegas and many of the insurance companies they spoke to refused to cover burst pipes.

Gotta be real careful with Owen. He has some genuinely good videos in some topics but his teachings are unsustainable and aren’t relatable if you aren’t trying to climb the social ladder in Miami or Vegas. His teachings are so corrupt it’s genuinely hard to cherry-pick the good stuff at this point. I think if you are trying to play the maxing game it can kinda work and if you live in a place where money is seen as virtue you may see that’s something that’s necessary for you to see success. Idk it’s just such a different world for me at this point with how much I’ve awakened and integrated that I can’t say I’ve transcended all this but also he has almost nothing to teach me. I need teachings on how to love more and keep a marriage alive and family healthy. these game teachers offer nothing to me at this point except maybe I can learn from their marketing a bit.

European Jews are genetically closer to modern Europeans than to native middle eastern people. The craziest part is that the native Jews from the Middle East that were in Palestine, an established minority of Jews that has been there for ages and surrounding countries’ Jews, the ones who could truthfully say they and their ancestors have lived in the Middle East for centuries, when they went to Israel they experienced racism for being dark (actually form the Middle East). Zionism was actually just as alien to them as it was to the Muslims. European Jews haven’t been in the Middle East since the Roman empire, they are Europeans today.

No, because Taiwan is indisputably part of China. Read up the history. But I do not support any war and any reunification should happen 100% through diplomacy. I may not even support reunification and perhaps a diplomatic relationship where Taiwan is able to remain autonomous Your country stole a bunch of land and then pretends to be the victim and the defender. Imagine someone breaks into your house and then when you attack them to get out they shoot back saying it’s their home and they live there and are acting in self defense, doesn’t make much sense does it? You might say you won some wars so it’s like some realpolitik, legitimizes your country because historically war has shaped many countries… but it’s not the same cause this only happened like 77 years ago and clearly it’s not been resolved and is not an excuse for you guys magically having a land deed on the place especially considering you guys call yourselves a democracy. The only way Israel can logically make sense is if the state and people of Israel acknowledge they are a colonial stolen land country and refuse to move because that would simply be too disruptive, which I would in a sense agree with that. Then there come be a two state solution (which you guys should never have been promised 55% of the land originally, why would a tiny minority of people get to displace all the natives and get 55% of their land? Just cause the British and USA say so? )But you guys have to lie and lie and make up the most ridiculously twisted arguments to justify your violence and existence.

A fair point. It’s why I think above all we need to honor our authenticity and truth. If the truth is we need to work on our current situation and acknowledge our challenges then we are living in alignment. I have a much broader definition for alignment and purpose. It’s acting truthfully and authentically in the moment with what we know, clear of lies and the least amount of resistance. That’s non action , Wu Wei. for example if the truth is you need to get yourself to a safer country and that’s what’s true for you then any action aligned with getting yourself to a better country is truth.

It’s a colonial state largely founded by WWII refugees and wealthy Jews, justified by grievances and abuse suffered from the holocaust and it’s really driven home by a biblical fairy tale about how it was promised to them by god. It’s layered in its justifications but the narrative isn’t so complex. It was founded on land that does hold historical importance to Jews but this land also has had natives living there prior to the modern Israeli which is a mix of Jews form other middle eastern countries but mostly European Jews. The natives there. Palestinas lived there for hundreds of years and genealogically have more in common with the original Jews there than the European Jews who were native to Europe for over 800 years that came in and took the land by force while it was in a stateless strange period of being a British colony. If the place had not been colonized and all the Jewish refugees either stayed in Europe post ww2 or went to the USA it probably would have modernized into a modern state called Palestine similar to Syria or Iraq.

Of course they did. They didn’t even exist before 1948, a British Zionsit brainchild that got out of hand.

“Justifiable wars” ??? What a load of shit. Some of you guys are so far from god and truth. You can justify defending yourself sure, but of course people who want to wage war will just lie and say they were defending themselves (IE: Trump with Iran “drones were coming to California”, Putin with Ukraine “we are defending from nazis”

You guys need to be careful not to brain rot yourselves. Chronically online discussions. Leo, even you are prone to this.

I have done a lot of contemplation work on this. Especially as someone who studies Taoism and Wu Wei. I’ve explored my definitions and beliefs on some key concepts, I’ll share them. Again, don’t take everything so literally. Success - financial and social recognition which allows for new opportunities. Abundance - recognizing this moment now is all there is and you are enough / valuable in it, you have all you need to make the next truthful choice with the least amount of resistance. Uniqueness - you are valuable and unique and there is no one else like you, unique qualities about you and you being you. Passion - Your true self’s highest and most joyful expressions of itself through your uniqueness. We need to balance innocence / wonder with wisdom. What does this mean? Well you have bills and need money to live. This is true. You also have authentic passion you love and want to do, the language of your soul. This is also true. As you live you find the passion doesn’t necessarily pay the bills at this time or the way you are going about life neglects one of these truths. The challenge to life is giving proper recognition to both. We weren’t born with an instruction manual to life. We have to make choices, make mistakes, that’s ok. I would say the thing that really robs me of my joy on this path towards finding sustainable expressions of my passions is expectations. You got to drop all self judgement and expectations that things have to go how you think they should go. All we can do is make the right choices in the moment and take a bit of time to think with clarity about what choices we may want to make. I think this is mostly spot on and I agree with it but I think it needs just a bit of adjustment in my opinion. “Right sequence” I don’t believe life flows on such terms. It just flows. You may see certain choices at one point in time in your past as a mistake but culminated years later in something good for you. The thing is we live in the unknown. I think such language still has an expectation that things go how you think they should go, according to your idea of perfection. I would be a bit careful with that. We can live in Wu Wei, live from spirit and live authentically and in a way we believe is honest and right for ourselves.

This just seems too outlandish. I don’t want to rule anything out in the Epstein files though.

You def gotta be careful with what information you take in. Reading about all the cruelty and disgusting behavior can skew your mind in unhelpful ways and disconnect you inside in ways you aren’t conscious of when you hear or see realities about the world your ego probably doesn’t want to accept at first. Kind of like those women who listen to nothing but true crime and walk through the world scared of everything. The truth is there are people on this earth making a lot of choices based in some of the most absurd and disgusting lies imaginable. Obviously the news and media blows it up some, you don’t need to throw out all trust with your neighbor and people around you, but the reality is there are some cruel people on this earth. I can’t say I entirely accept this always. Sometimes wanting to disturb myself about it seems like the familiar path for coping with these truths but keep in mind not much good comes about from a disturbed mind. I think everyone is navigating the news about our politicians as it unfolds. Some of us are shocked, some are laughing at memes about it, some of us are disgusted and disturbed. I think the one thing I at least say I want to take away form this and live more wisely is that we gotta be there for ourselves through it and realize it’s possible to be happy and at peace in a world of chaos.

A load of shit and it takes only a couple of searches and clear minded reasoning to see how false this assertion is. Stop watching YouTube videos from clickbait war influencers. Use your head and actually look for credible sources. It has def hit a million now KIA/wounded for Russia and probably Ukraine to a slightly lesser degree.

The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks. Really great book and the author is spiritually informed and awake.

We don’t have to split hairs. Obviously there’s manners that any person should have that are basically unspoken rules of any relationship.

If the man is working full time and supporting the entire family financially he shouldn’t have to lift a single finger for anything else. That is if has the entire financial burden.

I remember there’s a cliche often discussed here where we would basically say dressing up as a hippy and doing the whole kumbaya schtick doesn’t make you more spiritual. Having kids doesn’t make you less spiritual. And it definitely doesn’t make you more of an adult or valid member of society either. It’s just another choice in life you are responsible for which some people are more prepared or willing to make vs others. It comes with its own ups and downs and I’m sure beautiful and challenging moments as well. I’d say as I fall into my flow I see having a child is almost an inevitability while living a balanced life, but that’s just my situation.

Well I don’t know why you are doing spiritual work then if it isn’t about living from a place of absolute reverence and trust in the absolute perspective. Of course if you judge everything relatively you will see in what ways they are relative and different and you can run yourself in circles doing that. I’m not even saying that’s a problem because I can encompass where that is needed to live in the middle. I would say you have a bias towards only seeing “masters” who confirm your worldview of what you think spirituality should look like. There are plenty of spiritual people who had kids. It lead to almost 8 billion of them on the earth right now.

No and to be honest this is not the issue. There are a ton of podcasters and helpful content out there. In fact there are so many people that have thrown a line out to help men escape. At this point it’s immaturity and men needing to learn from their mistakes and if that means most of them live out their lives as incels, that’s on them. I once had this idea and then I gave up on it the moment I stepped in those communities. They are there by choice and have chosen exactly where they want to be. They’re free to leave at any time.

Hmm I agree kids are a responsibility. Slow you down, I am not sure I agree with that. I am not sure I fully understand what you mean by slow you down. Being responsible for spiritual work, what does that mean? I don’t separate anything in life from spiritual work, which I believe I’m responsible for my life. What’s interesting to me is you start your post off along the same line of thinking on how I’d categorized kids, it’s not separate. The “so what” of it cuts both ways and it’s just deciding which way you want to go. Spiritual work = life = kids = money = relationships = careers = life purpose = responsibility = everything.

A lot of people don’t realize that having a kid is one of the most spiritual experiences you can have. There’s something unexplainable that comes over a room when you’re in a room when a person passes away, the same thing takes over when a person is born.

This is a good insight and also perhaps one of the things I noticed on the forum. Just my observation that many people equate a lot of stuff like kids, marriage and earning money that is this lowly thing between them and truth and if only these things didn’t exist then everything would be perfect. Idk it’s something I notice from people here really building their life around seeking or at least appear to be going by their posts. As if they should be above it. Notice I use the word seeking, not truth. Incidentally they will also be asking questions how to get laid and dropping red pill advice in the dating section. I think what I’m trying to say is I don’t always think in the same terms as a lot of people do here and I don’t see a lot of what people here see as obstacles in the way of spirituality.

They canceled a scheduled military drill at Fort Bragg for a unit that specializes in military operations that get dropped in and out.

Wouldn’t it be untruthful to expect yourself to sustain any degree of consciousness if you simply can’t? What I mean is say you are focusing on spirituality. And before we even start discussing this you believe there is some ideal or perfection when it comes to this topic “I must be this conscious.” Where there is you now on this side who isn’t as conscious as you think you should be vs the other side where you are as conscious as you think you should be. To me that seems like a trap in and of itself. A move towards expanded consciousness comes about from truth itself not from seeking perfection, achievement or accomplishment.
