Calling Vaush evil is the same as him calling right-wingers Nazis. Aside from Vaush calling every right-winger a Nazi, fascist, and white supremacist, his political takes are surprising intelligent for a 20-something-year-old Youtuber gamer bro. I am talking about his political positions. Not his personal life.

What nobody tells you is, if you lose your health, all your happiness will fly out the window and no amount of success, development, or spiritual work of any kind will save you.

I regret sharing that video with you conspiracy theorists at all because you're so dumb you will use those profound insights to fool yourself into thinking that your conspiracy theories are actually intelligent. What I communicated in that video was an excerpt from the book I'm writing, and it is way over your head. Of course the government is corrupt with corporate influence and lobbying. But that does not make your conspiracies true. Nor does it make corporations evil. For every 1 person that Big Pharma kills it saves 100. Your Ivershmectin horse pills are made by Big Pharma.

Those are not mutually exclusive. Trump built a coalition of toxic Red, Blue, and Orange. Don't underestimate just how underdeveloped the bottom 10-20% of the US population is. It's not merely toxic Orange, it's downright shades of Red. Most of them don't, but 10-20% of them do! Which is exactly what we see with these domestic terrorists, white nationalists, Capitol rioters, Proud Boys, militia group members, etc. These guys would certainly commit a felony or punch are minority in face if they got riled up. It's not like most of these people are criminals, but they are prone to being riled up into a bigoted fury. Trump is a paper tiger in many ways. He's not a Red warlord, he's a Redish con-artist. Con-artistry is his forte. Red has plenty of range. It's not all warlords. Trump has another lifetime or two to go before he reaches the development level of a Bill Clinton. At least Clinton is willing to read a book.

Yeah... fun and artistry aren't the same thing. I'm always biased towards new ideas. Although some things never seem to get old, like Dark Souls. No, I made more from Actualized.org. But also that other biz I had to split profits with my brother. Overall the revenue may have been higher but my portion less. No, I exited that biz entirely.

Honestly I've never cared about HL3. There are far better games to be made. HL is a well-made game, but is it really that fun? I would say no.

Yeah, what you see there is lots of Red. Which is exactly what you should expect if you understand SD. Trump voters are in the low end of the development spectrum. Which is why anyone would find Trump appealing.

Love

One small change and you would be in Iraq chopping peoples heads off. Yeah, but none of that produces happiness. No, not that much. Not Actualized.org, another biz. I didn't quit. I quit working for a boss. The reason I quit was to make my own indie games that could never be made otherwise. I don't deserve any credit for the Bioshock games. My contribution was minimal. Although I did advocate for the female companion on Bioshock Infinite. That was like my one contribition. It was a rip-off from Half-Life 2 which I had just played.

Actually it's my parents who moved out to a different state while I was still living at home and going to uni. It didn't make sense to switch universities so I got an apartment. It would have been a lot worse since I would have gotten stuck in wage slavery and unable to develop my game design skills. And that nearly happened since my parents were nearly out of money. I squeezed by just in time. Things could have gone horribly wrong.

Absolutely not. You cannot get Absolute Truth from a human. You have no idea yet how deep this goes. You are playing child's games with your faux skepticism.

If up is down, and down is up, then yes.

If you take academic philosophy and add Actualized.org to it, then you will get all the personal dev benefits of Actualized.org. Surprise!

Sadhguru will say; "Isn't it? Yes or no."

Not another of these threads.

Suck it up for now but make plans to move out and become independent. Changing family is as futile as digging a hole in the ocean.

Of course it's a very mixed bag. But I don't think what China is doing is sustainable. People will demand their rights and freedoms at some point. Fighting capitalism is very tricky. I worry that China will go about it in a corrupt way, fighting only those forms of capitalism that serve to consolidate power for the greedy party elite. This has always been the problem with communism/socialism. The party members are full of shit and are as greedy as the worst capitalists but cloak themselves in socialist ideology, which is less honest than capitalism. Their actions are not based on truthfulness, which always boomerangs. You cannot fake your level of development. It will backfire.

Yes, of course. If I was only doing it for myself I would be 100x less developed than I am. Selfishness is not motivating. There needs to be a higher reason for all this work. In many ways I care about your development more than I care about my own.

Yes, I did a ton of that. Too long to go into here. At home and commute. And had an apartment and commute.

No

Sounds like a Stage Blue crackdown against Orange devilry.

Drones don't have dicks. Ironically, pretty soon all wars will be fought by non-gendered combatants.

That is not what enlightenment is. Be careful with your saintly fantasies.

There are many subtleties to it. Sounds like you're still missing some important facets, so keep probing deeper and from different angles.

Parents paid for me till the end of college. Then I got a job as a game designer. Did that for 1 year, got paid $45k/yr there. Then started my own online biz and started earning 6 figures within 2 years of that. Have earned 6 figures ever since.
