All winning arguments does is have people insult your communication skills and call you illiterate based on imagined mistakes in order to cope with their own complete and utter intellectual inadequacy. What kind of approach would even work around these people? Nothing? There must be some kind of loop-hole in the system.

I had a dream that there was an alien object involving potential dangerous consequences that was being investigated by people, including me, somewhere slightly underground. There was a detective in my dream I was talking to. I forgot most of my interactions with him but he told me not to do anything with the object until he is aware of the new findings. The object was related to a black pen that could alter the air around it but also worked on a piece of paper. In another dream, I walked past some people, did something to anger a public couple, then entered a red tube-like corridor which separates that "outside" world from a sprawling, complex maze, which requires complex actions, extreme perseverance and books to get to the bottom of. My friend was in the red (or somewhat red but that was the memorable color) two-way hallway leading to it and sounded worried. ChatGPT interprets the things about the maze as me thinking I will need knowledge, skills, perseverance and effort in my life.

With this concept one can become a billionaire practically instantly or even succeed in world domination. Contemplate: "Rise above the chimps."

Could be interpreted as roast of the century.

I think the only person who ever wanted anything from you was the...

Just... why?

And other kinds of lunatics that are completely unreasonable also exist. Although I'm still curious, how the hell did OP confuse an alleged golden retriever for a pitbull?

Using someone for money and using someone in an interaction that is just part of how the world works are completely different things. An OnlyFans girls is a complete sociopath, a guy who sleeps with girls without having emotions for them isn't even guilty of anything. You just need to compare the number of options the girls who sleep with the unfeeling guy had VS how lonely the guys who use onlyfans are. Completely different things. But no, this tantrum is getting hate just because you're telling "muh truth" AKA "men are bad" which is what you've been brainwashed into by the mainstream.

How painful was the bad trip?

Things I was wrong on: 1. I thought cold approach was a good idea and that I had to do it. I also thought that anyone would be open to cold approach by default. 2. I thought that females who interact with you without meeting the standard that a chad would expect are open to sex. 3. I thought females had a sex drive generally. 4. I thought Bernie should have been president. 5. I was inaccurate when thinking it's irrational to assume Trump would be less pro-Israel, the truth is more nuanced, it's closer to the middle. 6. I used arguments that don't quite interact with the argument itself directly when arguing against free will. 7. I overestimated the power of material privilege compared to the power of psychological torture. 8. I was blind to the fact that entities have designed your mind to not accomplish things. 9. I thought there was long-term satisfaction from material achievements up until late 2024.

I'm going to be replying to what I highlighted. 1. Your perspective? That assumes the physical external world in order to assume you perceiving things. All you have is the perception itself, and it's no longer perception. 2. Organisms don't exist. 3. Your own projection. 4. Nope, self-defense projects evil unto SOMETHING regardless of what that something is. 5. Calling things selfish is not less of a projection than callings things evil. Nothing is evil, others don't have an ego, they aren't selfish. At least that's what should be the case according to your worldview.

You just can't be indifferent in the sense that you're not doing anything because you're not motivated enough.

As you grow older you realize that being forced to act indifferent and lazy is an incredibly strong force in you, although it can be fought. If your mind is clear and you do shadow-work you can get to the point where you, maybe even easily, persevere through the emotions no matter what they are.

Miss-typed. It means "While sometimes I feel strong emotions, I ultimately slip into indifference over and over again.

Am I the only one who finds it incredibly bizarre how the mind works? Even if you take into account factors like unhealthy modern day diets... Hamza describes hard work as "trudging through the snow" AKA making your way through all the piles upon piles of negative and unproductive thoughts and painful emotions. But why? Why this much filth to go through? Imagine you are trying to hunt a mammoth and your mind just makes you go through so much mud that you may as well be paralyzed. And not just that, that's not the end of it, in fact the complete nauseating despair began when you woke up. With absolute 24/7 indifference to boot. Truly fascinating that evolutionary mechanisms made us this way.

The truth is, the vast majority (to which I belong) can't actually draw strength from anything. I've tried every mindset change imaginable and I just slip into indifference no matter how strong the temporary emotions carry me.

Honestly yes. If you're running through life with 0 trauma and just a borderline psychopathic brain that goes from point A to point B instantly, where does the procrastination come from? Look at the turmoil. It needs to cure itself otherwise working would be like slamming a severely damaged part of your body against metal.

Contemplate: You are so blinded by your ego you confuse universal evil and good for constructs of the ego, this is the natural side effect of not being able to see past the ego. This is actually natural for carbon-based life-forms. "But if you use an example of another organism being cruel to another organism you didn't get to evil, they're just being themselves, you're judging it as evil." You call it meaningless but you're unsure of yourself, you think it's all empty and that evil came from your own ego, not at all, as long as your mind exists and anything is able to fill what you call yourself or your ego or your perception or what happens to be revealed, the evil exists there and you try to deny it but none of the phenomenon goes away. Let's say you are put into a room with someone who is evil and they happen to attack you. You don't see the evil, you don't see anything but actions, but you will only confuse yourself by denying to yourself there is something there to them attacking you. That is evil. Even if it was currently the case that a button existed which let humans infinitely transcend everything to the point where they could avoid suffering, this button is self-evidently so difficult to press that it can't be used to avoid the problem of evil. You didn't choose the ego, you didn't choose your birth or anything, yet you think you CREATED evil, it's the ultimate naivete.

Contemplate: Why are people who think good and bad are constructs of the ego coming from one of the lowest possible pserpectives? So much to unpack.

Bump.

Of course, you're completely single-minded. The sexual revolution means that there is literally nothing a male can do to actually get sex. You can't approach in public, can't approach anywhere. There aren't any opportunities to talk to girls or get girls. Women's asexual nature will eventually lead to a backlash and complete regression into authoritarianism. People thought hell would be sex, drugs and partying, the truth is all that an atheistic world brings is pure hierarchy and pure authoritarian evil. A locked-down system where the evil people have nothing to guide them and instantly fall into the status quo. And if you're taking any approach that contradicts my threads in the dating and sexuality forum you're not living in reality. Brother, we can sort of see that with the appeal to accomplishment fallacy you're using.

Yeah haha so funny dude. I'm not sure if you're trying to run away from your past or want those weapons in order to be more effective when you finally you-know-what. Either way that's quite the outdated weapon these days.

Only you can ultimately know if you are strong enough, but you also actively choose it in the moment.
