China is totally different than the Western world.

Start criticizing the government there and see what happens.

@Synnergy My point wasn't to argue that either system is better or worse, or that China has a preferable system. My point was that Western values are subjective based on culture and ego. They are not truth.

I take them to be objective truth since they have been proven to work in reality.

And I also stand with the West.

We're by far superior to other cultures and I'm not saying that because I have an ego.

We must acknowledge the moral superiority of the West.

Here is the deal: slavery was universal. The West is the first and only civilization on planet Earth that abolished slavery. That is what makes us morally different.

I would encourage you to stand with the West and enjoy your freedoms.

This right here is the unconsciousness and delusion of conservative worldview we speak of.

You see the "western culture" as objectively superior because you are looking at things from the perspective of "western culture". Of course. How could it be otherwise? Don't you see how obviously biased your worldview is?

Actualized.org is actively dismantling exactly these kinds of delusions. So it's obvious why you don't like the way things are done here.

Well said.

@Synnergy All cultures believe they are superior to all others, whether morally or on any other criteria. It takes relatively conscious people to realise this is not the case.

   This is very true. If Actualized.org was based in China, China would have censored this place WAY before Leo got to talk about psychedelics and reality. Here in the west, there's enough wiggle room to talk about advanced topics like this. No where esle than the western world would this be slightly more open to discourse, anywhere else is mostly private and in small groups. Anywhere else that spokesperson might even get killed. There's nothing like the western world.

   I also agree about capitalism working, it's working too well that some people can't keep up with the machine. This is why we need a little dash of some values of stage green and little bit of socialism to keep capitalism functioning at a pace where most can benefit from it still.
