  1. Lol,a trip report from an orgasm 🤣
  2. This isn't parody, this is already the implied Western mainstream view.
  3. Does the "infinite consciousness" model, that Leo talks about, namely that consciousness is all there is, answer the question "What happens after we die?"? The model implies that after we die an infinite number of possible scenarios could occur. You could be reborn as any sort of being (a snail, an alien). You could awaken as "God" and realize you were dreaming the whole thing. You could wake up in Christian heaven. You could remember past lives or you could wake up not remembering anything of past lives (similar to the current scenario). You could wake up as another human and die and do it all over again. Right?
  4. How many of you still get road rage, speed, tailgate, and consider it completely normal to do so? Self driving cars would COMPLETE ELIMINATE road rage, speeding, tailgating. Is the general population ready to give these habits up? On a side note MIT did a study that showed tailgating slows down traffic up to 50%. https://www.forbes.com/sites/lauriewinkless/2017/12/15/if-we-all-stopped-tailgating-we-could-dramatically-cut-traffic-jams/
  5. @Alexopwhy are you here? Do you want Leo to stop?
  6. Cool video on how to improve your looks as a guy
  7. Interesting video and channel that helps understand conspiracy theories, and how group and power dynamics work.
  8. If we knew how well the middle class lives in China we would riot. China has solved poverty and homeless for its entire population in our lifetimes. They have 90% home ownership rate. Universal Healthcare, low crime rate, affordable high quality education, cheap electric cars, good environmental regulations, high speed rail, etc etc..compare that to the tent cities, mass shooting, toxic social media, culture wars, and fentanyl epidemics of the "free world". One major reason China is doing so well is because they don't have two parties undermining each other every 4 years. They have one party committed to improving the lives of its people, the environment, advancing technology. We are deluding ourselves in the West at this point that we are in any way better than China. We need to stop infighting and pull out shit together to remain competitive. Heres a good video and channel on the topic....
  9. That's a good point anti-natalist by definition are selecting themselves out of the gene pool. But sometimes ideas are contagious, like viruses, and the idea gets reproduced in a population without relying on sex. Declining birth rates are proof that people are having less and less kids on principle.
  10. Trump makes it so obvious why tyrants and dictators take control of the press and kill or cancel any dissenting voices. Trump is a real time showcase of the psychology of such leaders.
  11. Quit my job, Blow it all on stupid things, get depressed
  12. It was around $20k last time I checked.
  13. Being afraid of AI is similar to how people were afraid of the Internet when it first came out. It's also like Aristotle, who didn't trust writing because it made you mentally lazy. Check out this interview by Mark Cuban to ease your worries...
  14. I agree with this video but what happens I think is that parents get tired and save energy where they can. It takes alot of effort to teach people.
  15. Is depression and suicide always a result of bad parenting? Can you have shitting parents and not be depressed and suicidal?
  16. I watched this, gave me anxiety and I believe it's toxic and doesn't give much value. It was interesting to see the crazy things people believe but it's basically unconscious people talking over each other. Also people most of the time they are arguing over definitions on that channel. In most debates the person who can think the quickest and has a more authoritative rhetoric usually seen as "winning" even if they aren't right.
  17. In Leo's last video he stressed the importance of logic. But what's logical about being a ceiling fan for 20 years on a salvia trip (as was the case in a video he shared)? What's logical about God being in two places at once, namely inside each of our heads? I feel like God is more illogical than logical. Or am I wrong?
  18. My parents were low key toxic AF, no positive reinforcement, no kind words, no pats on the shoulder, no usuable advice, no deep talks about important things, plenty of scapegoating the kids, blaming the kids for all family problems never themselves, cheap as fuck. We were financially very stable but parents had their heads up the Catholic priests ass so far they had no mind for the family.
  19. You know why Aristotle didn't write anything down? because he thought the new technology of writing would make people mentally lazy.
