  1. @Vrubel can u elaborate a bit on how you came to the virtue signaling conclusion?
  2. My ex told me he was just a friend lol My lesson was to avoid self deception in relationships and acknowledge the real facts
  3. @Bob Seeker Yeah this is the common trap with college degrees Going to college with like a communications major and then coming out struggling to find a job is the trap
  4. @Matt23 for business degrees like finance, marketing, accounting -> startups, small companies, or corporations pay like 50k entry level (in cities, in usa). you can like get $20-25k+ pay increases per year if you swap companies + if you are good if you land large corporations you are making $100k+ minimum by like age 24 . very doable if you have a good resume in college. internships + good gpa + decent school + projects you can do this without a degree too probably if you play smart. bootcamps, personal projects, freelancing portfolios, getting recommendations with networks that being said this is just one option, not really related to OP's questions per say

  8. Probably but I've personally used his principles to achieve success in my first business. They can be wildly useful. (particularly the burn the boats concept)
  9. I love constructive criticism. I give and listen to constructive criticism towards leo regularly Yours is just way too abrasive for me personally.

  11. https://medium.com/be-open/why-you-dont-have-to-win-the-argument-3e0a88c92afc 'arguing is a futile activity that has no winners. Arguments can never create a sense of understanding or acceptance of one’s point of view. They just leave both sides feeling angry and frustrated (and sometimes guilty too). They also typically make it less likely that people will listen to each other " https://medium.com/swlh/dont-argue-to-win-argue-to-learn-874a523fd39 "Because you’re verbally more skilled at constructing an argument on the fly, it doesn’t make you more right." arguments can also contain: manipulation tactics logical fallacies dogma that being said i argue a fuckton so im not one to speak
  12. There are two types of criticisms (I just made up but to me feel very true) Criticisms that are from below are argumentative, judgemental, critical, demonizing/bashing Criticisms that are from above are calm, peaceful, empathetic, unreactive, conscious and wise The former is like in an argument/debate kind of mindset. Where the truth actually can't be seen because it is based in arguments and some egoic agenda. Also because I can see clearly a lot of his judgements are wrong/untrue I know that his argument isn't based in looking for the truth!!

  15. @Vzdoh would i be wrong in assuming this discussion feeds your ego as to how hot and high value you are and how the men on the forum need to up their value to get women like you
  16. If we want to be epistemically sound, im curious to know how attached are you to the ideology? And how much do u desire to have truthful perspectives? Because if we want episetemic integrity then we must be willing to question any perspective (ofc me included :)) @eaaaeaeae
  17. Yeah makes sense honestly, you do talk a lot It was from your infinite intelligence video
  18. It's your own quote LOL
