That's great

Find common interests/topics/movies to talk about and then jokingly say "let's go do that this weekend!"

You are an admirable person for doing all that and you obviously aren't physically lazy. A psychedelic would shatter your way of thinking, for better or for worse. It would alter your way of thinking so radically that you would start asking different questions and start having different goals, motives, and values. You could end up leaving your family to wander the earth (like some super religious mystics do) because survival of yourself and your family is not necessarily aligned with truth. Another example that's a possibility is you could be driven to go into politics and change your 3rd world country. I don't recommend psychedelics because they are dangerous but even without trying them they are good examples of how easy it is to shatter your current way of thinking. (Not that it needs shattering) If you are happy just keep doing what you are doing it's not worth messing with a good thing.

@Emerald 'Hungarians were the original people who were behind all the advanced civilizations in the world. In fact, it was Hungarians who taught the Ancient Egyptians how to build the pyramids. And Hungarians used to be the dominant people in the world, until (fill in x group) came and oppressed them and stole credit for all of the things Hungarians created.' I've heard this exact same thing from Hungarians at the church I grew up in. Alot of Hungarians at the Catholic Church are also Nazi sympathizers and long for the days when Hungary gets it's land back it lost after the war.

Just Wow

Thanks Leo, yes this seems to be the case but Ken is also saying that Trump is a backlash to green so Im slightly confused about his perspective.

I'm reading "A Post-Truth World" by Ken Wilber and he seems to be under the impression that Trump, (and Brexit), uses postmodern relativism, where "no truth" exists only egalitarian perspectives. Wilber claims that this shows Trump is at Stage Green that came online in the 1960's (when Trump grew up) and now has come to an unsustainable degenerated madness we see today.

Example of a true conservative here:

Is caring what others think an inadvertent admission that they are superior to you? If you have an argument with a child you quickly forget about it because in your mind it's obvious you're superior to a child and what a child thinks doesn't matter. But when you have an argument that is upsetting for even days after, are you not admitting that that person is superior to you and that it matters what they think?

https://actualized.org/insights/snyder-on-freedom In Leo's blog post about freedom, Leo says Snyder isn't telling about freedom on the existential level. What is existential freedom?

It's an insult used against stage green people.

Is Pete Holmes correct but saying life doesn't make sense?
