You are not a materialist you are stage 7 spiral dynamics

trust me she masturbates to pictures of some nerdy guy with two furs for a beard and non mascular probably with braces too

Very simple I exist as perception others exist as thoughts The other way around from others perspective

keep in mind that attachment is a survival mechanism for the ego this one thought can flip your entire perspective on its head . it works both ways on the one hand your attaching your self to her because you see some things in her that help you preserve your identity and reinforce ego patterns . on the other hand she does not care about you and is chasing other guys because shes trying to survive her identity and doesnt see you fit for that task . its really simple when you look at it this way all of us are guilty of surviving the ego one way or another and no matter how innocent and pure our actions might seem we are actually selfish devils on the most fundamental level just my 2 cents

I think he means its not allowed to have a debunking attitude towards those topics as his philosophy is based on nearly a decade of contemplation so to leo those are like unshakeable truths that we should respect at least his efforts that he put to derive them

i have been meditating on this topic for a while now and all i can say is that you cant hide the sun with your hands . you can stop thinking but that doesnt answer anything the questions are still there unanswered . to say that there are no answers is answer so which one is it ??

How = assumption Do = assumption You = assumption Contemplate = assumption With or without = assumption Assumptions = assumption

the problem is that any usage of the word god is correct because the part is the whole so theres really no problem

@LastThursday you dont have to mention them their assumptions made by the conceptual framework your using but perhaps you dont see them as assumptions but as truth

all that your doing is that your taking direct experience to the extreme and dismiss thought entairly and assume that time doesnt exsit where in fact all evidence suggests otherwise but you will say evidence is imaginary too right ?? seems to me like a tight cage you made for the mind

Idk it seems like you leo dismiss the value of thoughts by saying everything is imaginary but everything is imaginary is also a thought right ?? seems like you really subscribe to idealism as opposed to materialism but cant they both be true or at least just two different views that none of them actually explain reality ??

it could simply appear out of no where than disappear its called a miracle and its not big deal for god

another form of perseption

your level of thought is higher than your level of awarenes . the human mind works on duality of thought and perseption the more you give to one side the more imbalance you experience and imbalance manifests in many different ways but when it shifts to the side of thoughts mainly as emotions or mind-body complexes to keep the patterns that proved to work well for survival . To let go of the patterns you have to throw your self in the abyss of not knowing and complete unshakeable faith that you will survive regardless of the patterns as long as you believe that the patterns are necessary for survival you will not be able to let them go and you are locked in the materialist paradigm . without that faith you will live in limitation and fear until the day you die (me too) .

If science is just a bunch of assumptions why is reality 100% materially consistent ?? In other words why is idealism more true than materialism ??

the name is martin though

take your time to work on your problems and then come back . follow the path of greater jihad . you seem too vulnerable at the moment to face the real world and you cant expect people to give you flowers . its not the world that need healing its you

lets take this childish comment for example . what kind of restriction would you like to apply for such violation ??

@Martin123 not comparing anything just following through your inconsistencys . when something is about you everyone needs to listen and be soft and feminine but you are allowed to be harsh . Im sorry but seems to me like your too unaware of your biases and in denial that you could ever be wrong . you only question others but not your self . idk just blatant refusal of turning inwards . thats lesser jihad trying to correct every one except your self

and then now you say this to me it looks like a double standard but you allow your self to be biased no problem

people did that over and over again but you refuse to see . you disagree as if nothing has value except your perspective . that known as closed mind please dont get triggered now Im saying this to help without patriarchal pressure like you demonstrated on others like @DrewNows

alright so lets say I told you your using anti abuse narrative to justify fear of turning inwards . you will agree???

just tell me how this is not abuse accusing another person of being inauthantic without evidence but just groundless assumption which equal projection i am almost sure if that phrase was directed at you you will say its abuse

yeah but then there is a missing story of the color red

Imo this is such a broad and complex issue it should be discussed on various levels . I understand that it's just a forum and that we should not take it too seriously but still I will raise some of what I believe are valid points that can help create more awareness whether here or in real life First the level of structure . Modern (green) governments have their structures build on the basis of democracy which means decentralisation of power . The more developed a government is the more decentralised its power is . In Spiral Dynamics the forum moderation is basically stage blue structure where the authority has all the power and the user has almost zero power . Aside from that being a very crude level of moderation on a progressive level in such advanced times, this issue is ignored completely and never even talked about or brought to light like it doesn't even exist and like it's a reality we have to deal with or else we're not welcome. The internet as a structure is basically stage green and it allows for communitys almost of any kind to exist . Forums like this live in the grace of stage green internet environment while they establish whatever environments they want . This is where socialism is being misused by capitalism . A capitalist is allowed to have his own dictatorship within the larger system of socialism . This is normalised like it's just the way life is and supposed to be but in fact its a form of misusing power . To be fair though this is not exclusive to this forum in particular it is more importantly a real life issue . The only two things that helps in the decentralisation here is the report and ignore options, the latter which is limited to normal users, and the former which is dependent on the moderators judgement and biases Which brings us to the second important point which is the subjectivity of the judgement of the mods and their human biases and possible complexities (aka personal egos). for instance (attachments below) very recently the mod @Max_V has bumped up a dead thread from 7 freaking days ago and locked it with the statement stupid discussion. Here: seriously what excuse could this lock possibly have??? Honestly to me it sounds like misusing the moderation privileges with very little awareness and possibly with troubled psychology . While I agree that the thread wasn't insightful at all, to me that still does not justify such power abuse. And to be completely honest it rather looks like someone who got bored and decided to go horsing around discovering their powers possibly as an ego boost. Instead the user could be shown instructions on how to post high quality threads (idea: Leo and mods should make a in depth guide for high quality posting) . Other examples I have for power abuse is when some mod gets emotional and can't control themselves. I would say that happens on a moderate rate as mods are after all just human beings. I've witnessed this myself in many occasions when a mod is arguing with someone the mod is always right and the user is always closed minded and ignorant. Gaslighting is a common technique I see mods demonstrating as well. Projection as a defence mechanism is usually present too. And for God's sake some mods are like 20 years old or younger I mean wtf man are you serious? And finally the serious mental issues that some mods have and ignore. I don't want to name names but some mods clearly have mental illnesses such as ocd and intrusive thoughts, some of them have superiority or inferiority complexes, some of them have sadistic tendencies. And these are not things I'm speculating about. These are things said explicitly here by certain mods (they know themselves). But the worst part is that even then, not everything is always said. A lot of things go under the radar and the mods give themselves a pass for ignoring their issues because power is appealing to the ego so they compromise honesty for power and they rather cling to it unjustifiably without being transparent enough to air out their inefficiency in an honest responsible mature manner. Lack of responsibility is a huge indicator of corruption and it should be really discussed instead of getting ignored . thank you for reading and thank you @Martin123 for bringing up the topic I appreciate your courage it inspired me to stand up against what I believe is abuse and corruption
