Both fine openers. Don't be so uptight. I've opened with worse.

You must be a special lady.

No you don't. Not even close. -
Blame is irrelevant. You perceive it as blame, but all we want is for you to acknowledge and surrender the cheats. When you refuse to do so, when you defend the cheats, then you are blamed for supporting the unfair system. No serious person blames you for slavery. You are blamed for not acknowledging systemic racism and being complicit in defending an unjust system. Slavery was just an extreme example I used. There are many more subtle ways in which the system is rigged for whites and against colored folk. Understand that we're not really interested in blaming you. We just want a fair system. The blame is merely a tool to shame you into realizing that you are defending an unfair system. If the system is made fair, no one will blame you any more. Do you want to work with us to help make the system fair? No? Then expect to be blamed. Because you are part of the problem.

Your framing of the situation is backwards. The back pain example is dis-analogous because when we are talking about social inequality, this inequality is not merely genetic, it is actively caused by groups of people. One group is privileged not because they are genetically superior but because they enslaved the other group. And the only way to correct this imbalance is to take away the privilege of the dominant group. It's like this: I enslave your family. You rebel and call me privileged (which I am). I deny it and adopt your logic to defend myself: "Let's not blame anyone for this. Let's not bring any groups down. Let's just talk about how you can improve yourself within my slavery system. Non-zero sum game!" The mistake in your logic is that you assume the privilege is merely accidental. But in fact it is deliberately designed. And when justice and truth dismantles this design, those who were privileged will feel outraged and violated precisely because privilege means you feel entitled to it. When you take away a slaverowner's slaves, he is outraged that you stole this property from him. He is too biased to see that this is actually a fair and proper re-balancing of what was an imbalanced situation. This is what you're doing while fooling yourself with innocent examples of back pain. Back pain isn't caused by people trying to fuck you over. No one is saying the white man has life easy. Life is hard for everyone, even billionaires and slaverowners. What's being said is that the system was rigged by white men to favor white men -- and this is historically undeniable in America. And fixing it requires taking something away from the white man by undoing his rigs. This is in fact a zero-sum game. White man must lose something for the system to become fair. If you play a video game with cheats from the very beginning, when we take away your cheats you will feel robbed and injured and outraged. You will exclaim: "Oh! What great injustice and evil!" The solution here is so simple: Just surrender your cheats and play the game without them. But instead you cling to your cheats, doing all sorts of mental gymnastics to justify why you deserve the cheats. Activists are not trying to shame you for being white. They simply want you to surrender your cheats, but you insist on not surrendering them. Hence the conflict. If you refuse to surrender your cheats, they will be taken from you by force. Because truth and love always prevails over falsehood and selfishness in the long-term. And cheats are false.

Absolute Truth has a way of seeming dogmatic, don't it? Not a bug but a feature. -

Funny enough he practices Transcendental Meditation and funds it.

I would support a Wall Street protest/boycott. But it has to be done consciously, peacefully, legally. The spirit of this thing is correct: Wall Street is a toxic place that needs to be cleaned up. No doubt about that. It's just a matter of tactics and strategy for how to actualize that.

I don't think it's comparable. I don't think Antifa is interested in electing a Green dictator. Fascism is more than just violence. Yes, toxic Green can be violent. Fascism is a whole worldview and ideology and state of mind.

There exist laws against stock market collusion. For good reason. Seems some of you don't know this. You can't just get a bunch of your friends together and start openly talking about how to manipulate stock prices to fuck people over or wage some political war. There is a very deep history of stock market collusion and manipulation. This kind of stuff has been happening for centuries, and modern stock markets are guarded against the most extreme versions of it. You can say, "But hedge funds do it!" If they do it, they do it much more subtly so they don't get caught.

People don't quite understand what a dream is. A dream is a thing which seems totally real when you are in it. Saying, "But it feels so real!" is no disproof of dreaming. That's how all good dreams are. It's simple. Life is a dream. The end. -
Green is not fascist. It has problems with mob rule, but not fascism.

If Beck is stage Blue, then SD tells you exactly why he would support Trump. There is even a Yellow reason. If Beck is Yellow, he might feel that Trump is needed to shore up the Blue/Orange part of the Spiral. But the problem is that Trump is Red, not Orange. Beck seems to have mistaken Trump for Orange. This a very dangerous miscalculation.

Dumb example, since 1500 years ago people died young and married young. By your logic most people were pedophiles 2000 years ago. This is what happens when you ignore historical context.

Boom! Headshot!

Tell yourself that as facists hordes storm the Capitol and rape the congress-people. Since this is a forum about consciousness I will not support unconscious behavior. I don't care if the whole world is stage Red animals. I will still try to uphold and teach Tier 2. My teachings are for a tiny slice of the population.

This is where Spiral Dynamics comes in very handy to sort things out.

All criticism is delusion. Ta-da! Ego is not bad. That itself is a judgment made by a selfish ego. -

@r0ckyreed No, you are wrong. This is not a matter of debate, opinion, or guesswork. You can become directly conscious that consciousness is Infinite, which means there is nothing outside it. Do the work. Don't theorize or speculate. You are getting lost in philosophical concepts. Covid is a dream, just like everything else.
