Don't remember what I said in that video. Seems like a lifetime ago. Insights can be minor or major realizations. They can be ordinary or mystical. You can have them without or with awakening. Awakening is beyond a mere insight. It's a radical change in your state of consciousness. Like super-human degrees of consciousness. It will often come with many insights on top of it since this expanded state gives you more access to insight. So just distinguish states vs insights.

Might as well be, because that's exactly how they will act.

I would distinguish insights from awakenings. Insights are smaller things, awakenings are more radical.

4th path my ass. There are infinite paths, infinite states.

There cannot be an awakening without an asleepening. God falls asleep and awakens an infinite number of times. How many times have you been inside a dream and woken up in your life? Does this make the notion of waking up meaningless? You do it every day. By your logic jerking off is meaningless if you can do it more than once.

There will be a big shift. From: "Respect the President and America. America is doing great." To: No respect for the President and America. America is ruined and dying and Biden killed it.

You can have an infinite number of awakenings.

This. Is. It. Life itself. Not a number or a value or a symbol. Absolute Infinity isn't a symbol or a concept. It is YOU! Your body and mind, sitting there reading this sentence.

Some people here are just batshit crazy. Banned

Easy. Stage Green shadow.

That's the trap. By being too epistemically strict and paranoid you also end up in falsehood.

Most of this stuff is implicit and subtle, which is why it's difficult to work with. The majority of anyone's understanding of anything is implicit, not explicit. In practice people navigate life through holistic gut instincts and vague intuitions.

@Gesundheit If you insist on being dense, I won't interfere.

It is possible to be non-ideological. Stop thinking about it and do it. ACTUALLY do it. Ask yourself, "What would it take for me to actually be non-ideological?" Not in theory, but in practice. And then do that. See how it feels.

Horniness is good if you're going beast-mode in a high energy club with lots of sets to burn.

That's like saying lotto tickets are a way to escape wage slavery. Just start researching lotto. You will not get rewarded unless you design your own reward. Also, although Van Gogh was a great artist I would not exactly call him a massive value provider. At least not in his day. Paintings don't provide that much value to people which is why they are very hard to sell unless you are a rockstar celebrity artist. Actually help someone's survival and you will get paid fairly well for it.

Welp, looks like I was wrong on this one.

If you were actually non-ideological, that would not be an ideology. But you'd have to actually do it, not just think or talk about it.

The reality is that extremely few people understand post-modernism. Most Green are not fully post-modern because that's a very academic stance.

Creating art is providing value. Just because your art goes unappreciated is another matter. That you compare scummy crypto investors with Van Gogh is absurd. No, that's according to your logic. You are conflating Van Gogh's art with investing in gold. If all Van Gogh did was invest in gold you would have no idea who Van Gogh was. It's your responsibility to find a way to provide value which other people appreciate. There are many starving artists in the world. It is not enough to create art, you must create art which other people are willing to pay for. This makes your job twice as hard. And that's correct. Here are the levels of making a living: Level 1: Being a pure value leech Level 2: Providing value but in a toxic way that harms others Level 3: Providing value which doesn't harm others but also isn't art Level 4: Doing art but no one is willing to pay well for it Level 5: Doing art, providing massive value, and getting paid well for it Reaching Level 5 requires some serious strategy and effort. It will not land in your lap.

It's your responsibility to do research until you find current lucrative niches. The niches I used 10 years ago will no longer apply today. Markets are always evolving. You have to be on the cutting edge of things. You can't just blindly follow what everyone else is doing. There are always new niches opening up, so don't lose hope.

Academic performance and social credentials are not equal to true intelligence or consciousness. Many smart people are ideological and stupid. Like Richard Dawkins. A very smart idiot.

Nope Doesn't matter how many degrees one has, if one says dumb things, one is dumb.

I am the one who suggested their video to you.

Dude, those are fake reviews that he probably paid for. He's advertizing his stupid film all over YouTube.
