Just? Logic IS reality. Oh why not? is exactly what causes God to exist. Why not Infinity? And so it is. You are treating all this far too flippantly. This is the logic of existence! Things don't get any more serious than this. This is not just words. Words point to realities.

Harris and Destiny are the opposite of epistemic scoundrels. They take epistemology seriously. Just because they are wrong on the Palestine issue does not make them scoundrels. No one will be right on every political issue. Agreement with your political positions is not the measure of scoundrelness. Be care. Do not use this concept to smear everyone who has other points of view than your own. We must allow healthy room for diversity of perspective. Harris and Destiny are good allies for liberal progressive democracy. Don't throw them away.

Trans is most likely an issue of genetic neuro-divergence. Seems to be the best explanation of it. Similar to how some people are gay. For a genetically normal person deciding if you're male of female is so easy it's a non-issue. Like breathing air. There's no confusion or struggle. Just like there's no struggle about who to have sex with.

The difference is that China is not a failed state, it is massively successful, even in ways the US is not. China has a sustainable hybrid system.

It's Blue-Orange. Not much to say about that.

Yes, that's a major factor. But also, China is more collectivist, which means they actually believe government is good and they are willing to self-sacrifice for the betterment of society. This is a deeply correct principle, unlike America's absurdly self-defeating libertarianism. Libertarianism and fundamentalism has ruined America. You cannot have a great society where everyone only acts out of private selfishness. That Americans do not understand this in principle is shameful and stupid. And it's why China will overtake America as the world's superpower.

This scoundrel:

Oh, yeah. I know that. I recommend his book.

I will post a steelman of China on my blog soon. China is doing some very impressive things that we should be openminded to. Especially given how badly America has been mismanaging itself over the last 25 years. It is no longer tenable that the American system is the best way of doing things.

Dude, I am not spending my time remembering names from Borat movies. Come on.

Borat was funny because Sasha is a comedy genius.

@DocWatts Your passion for activism is admirable. Thank you.

That's question-begging tho. The issue is that you don't know what role God has given you until you struggle to sort yourself out. Finding yourself and your role in the world is no easy task, especially if you grew up in a repressive or corrupt system.

You mean meth??

Very nice. Good luck.

There will be several when I update my book list.

@Ramanujan But what are you mastering?

@Eskilon Watch my series: Understanding Survival - Part 1 & 2.

@Ramanujan What have you worked to master? And how is that going?

Salvia is not a deliriant.

Teal Swan gets too much hate. She offers deep insights.

It's not about positive or negative. It's about Truth. In all cases what you seek is Truth, whatever it is. Your job is simply to know and love Truth. That is the highest Good.
