If a normal person did that, they would be considered crazy. Nothing special about some man in a diaper in the snow rolling around with wolves. Go put on some clothes so you don't freeze to death.

You don't realize this but this right here is slavery. Mental slavery. Needing to be one way over another. It's not freedom to want anything and to want to be a particular way. It's even worse seeing others being and criticizing and feeling you're better off than them. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you should feel or be any other way, I'm just pointing out that there's nothing more special about you wanting these things because they are only of the mind and what it thinks will make for a special life over any one else's. There's no such thing but only in the delusional mind of the individual that thinks it's a separate being. I might even be the same way in some things differently than what you're describing but at least i won't pat myself on the back thinking I'm any better than a drug addict if I'm addicted to meditation or mindfulness or self actualizing. It's just different ways of coping with the feeling of separation. That's all both are. Don't kid yourself.

All you did was transferred the addiction to another. One needs something to cope, to attach to and to use so foes the other. The mind is what's making the distinction to which one is better than the other. The fact that you look down upon and feel sorry for people who drink beer and are enjoying life VS you being attached to your rituals and being hooked on them while not being free to do what the hell you want without fear of anything doesn't make you any better than them. This is why I turn away from spirituality and just see life for what it is because spiritual people think they're any better than those who aren't.

Why was I given a warning point by @NoSelfSelffor expressing my opinion on a certain thread that I deemed to be racist and sexist. All I said was this thread seemed racists and sexist. The warning was also about homophobia and I'm not even sure how that word played into this as no one mentioned anything about gays. If I thought a post sounded racist and sexist and expressed that, why am I getting a warning . This particular moderator has been trying to give me points and silence me before and has been disrespectful to me on occasion just for speaking my mind or commenting in a respectable matter but just because he personally doesn't like the way I communicate. At this point I'M FEELING BULLIED by this moderator and I am asking for some type of action to be made because it's not the first time. I've had to endure his abusive style of communicating to me on a few occasions which i ignored but I feel like this warning isn't justified and feel it's getting a bit personal with him. Other mods could you please look into the matter and I saw no other way of dealing with this than to start a thread. I also wanted to publicly come forward because I'm getting sick and tired of this particular moderator's actions and how I believe he is overstepping his moderator's privileges and over abusing it. The thread was by @Hardkill about angry men and women and the way the colors and sexes are viewed when they express anger. Maybe he is right as I am getting a warning point for my expression as a black woman and the attempt to silence me and my opinions.

The facts speaks for themselves. This is not about black VS white crime its about whose more of a threat to the whole population. Black crime is USUALLY in house and amongst each other. When you look at the stats for serial killers and mass shooters what do you see mostly. They are more of a threat to the whole world.

A white gangster convict was just elected President so I don't really care what anyone says about black women and their anger. It goes to show how white men are looked at differently in this stupid racist and misogynist society. My point was to show how the real criminals to the whole population are getting away with their crimes and the ones we deem as criminals are usually only a threat to their own people. At this point, i don't know what's OK to say, so if this is a racist statement so be it.

You need to give yourself a warning point. Warn yourself that God will come down and strike you for giving him a warning point.

Silly

I was being sarcastic. Neither one is. Nowadays it seems just the mentioning of race is racism.

I dgaf what something sounds like. If a white person says they fear a black man in an elevator with a hoodie and a bulge in his pocket I personally would not consider that a racist statement. If it was said that they fear all black men in an elevator then yes. You guys aren't seeing the difference.

THAT IS NOT RACIST. Ok, I'm afraid to communicate on a forum because I'm afraid a white mod might give me points. Is that a racist statement.

Now you're throwing personal insults. Calling my standing up for myself emotional and petty. If you'all don't see this as personal and insulting and also sexist I don't know what is. It's so fucking obvious where your mindset is and I'm just the scapegoat for you to set your examples through. Your comments alone in the dating section says it all.

No, but if you say you're scared of an Asian woman in an elevator because she might karate you is.

You could have also messaged me about my statements also. What were you going to do, but what you're doing here. Justifying. I'm not going to privately message you about some stupid warning point I don't think is justified. If I'm wrong about that then I'm wrong. I'm not looking to be even just to not be a scapegoat for someone else's wrath.

No, it's OK. OP's point in the thread mentioned is being played out.

I didn't say whites are more dangerous either.

Why is the thread in question not racists and sexists but my comment is. I've seen comments here crude and obnoxious, about how men feel about women, do you give out sexist warning points all over the place for that and if not why not. What's the difference here. I've seen comments made about different races and ethnicities that are personal and how the narrator feels about that particular group, is that racist. Give me a break. My comment wasn't attacking any specific race it was personalized and was trying to make a point. I didn't just say white men are this or that,....my comment was a personal one and it's not a racist comment. A racist comment would be me implying that all people of that race were what I was implying. If someone said black women born in Georgia are angrier than most VS saying all black women are angry there's a difference thers. How are you going to tell me what I fear is racist. If I say I fear a white man with a suitcase and a trench coat in an elevator, that's not a racist statement. It's a personal fear and you need to know the difference.

Just because one mentions race in their statements doesn't make the statement racist. If that's the case why is the thread in question allowed to stay up because it wreaks of race.

No that's not racism.

So what, it's in response to OP's statements on how white men's anger is respected. You need to look at the statements in the proper context and how they were being used. They weren't just random statements, they were to address what i deemed to be a racist post itself.

I said put me in an elevator with 10 black men I would feel safe and put me there with a white man with a trench coat and a briefcase case I'd be nervous and trembling, which was merely an analogy for what I consider to be more threatening. It's my personal opinion and I don't see any thing racist about that.

@NoSelfSelfCould you please quote my racist statement back to me please as I am unaware of where I made such statements.

This is the thread.

Did you give a warning to the OP about his comments about black men and women.. All I said about white men was that they were horny. I also said they were shooting up the place. So what, those aren't racist comments. I wasn't calling the OP racist, I was saying the comments, remarks and statements were. If they aren't then so be it, it's simply an opinion.

oh ok. Hey there. As far as your previous remark, I'm not attached to any of those terms. I speak like that when I feel it's appropriate. My views on this non-duality stuff is not the same as most and I don't think it really matters what one says about it or how they view it. One can only communicate using words on a forum so its the only means of expression here. I don't really, and neither does anyone else need any lessons on the matter because in the big scheme of things it's all the Absolute speaking to itself.
