  1. But libertarians are not such humans because they don't believe in the collective responsibility necessary to create such a society. You cannot have a healthy peaceful society of 7 billion people who all act like individualists. That kind of attitude will result in a bloodbath. It is like you are trying to form a worldclass soccer team with people who are ideologically opposed to team cooperation. Effective teams require individual sacrifice for the collective. A libertarian doesn't even want to pay taxes, for fuck's sake.
  2. Lol No! Libertarianism is more zero-sum survival than democracy. If you want to see how libertarianism works, look at the animal kingdom. It's every man for himself, raping and killing to survive. It's not peaceful at all. Peace requires monopoly of force and strong regulations.
  3. Breaking News: Fox who guards hen house issues strong warning against leaving hen house unguarded
  4. @RendHeaven You are obviously a beta demon
  5. It is too hard to know. I can't get into their heads. Why not just appreciate every teacher as he is and focus on your own attainments?
  6. Dude, you don't understand relativity. Please stop acting like a know-it-all.
  7. The data pretty clearly shows that Scandinavian countries have the highest levels of happiness, health, and overall well-being of all the nations. So clearly their Social Dem systems are the best mankind has invented so far. They seem to strike a good balance between capitalism and socialism.
  8. I was sorta forced into it because of my health problems. So I'm not a good measure of such things. I was forced to explore many supplements I otherwise never would. If your health is good, then it probably won't be worth it for you. And it also depends very much on your salary. I have money to burn.
  9. Said the ego-mind Lol How about filling the mind with macho human bullshit? Maybe that's more dangerous?
  10. Those sound like shitty friends. Fuck 'em. Find better ones. A true friend is supposed to be able to feel happy for you when you are succeeding.
  11. No risk, no reward. I've probably spent $5k-10k on supplements over the last 7 years.
  12. I think this is just a difference of perspective. I don't see any substantive disagreement here.
  13. All colors, sounds, sensations, feelings, tastes, smells = raw data It's the most fundamental stuff of which reality is made of. These are the true "atoms". You can't boil down the color red any further than itself. You can't boil down the taste of salt any further than itself.
  14. Some people I've spoken with say it is possible, but I'm doubtful it will truly be eternal. From what I understand, all dreams and all forms have a beginning and an end. The only truly eternal and changeless thing is the Godhead itself, which is Pure Infinite Love. I don't believe that God can lock itself out of its own house permanently. That would be rather embarrassing and unGod-like, wouldn't it?
  15. I was making a Star Wars joke. Han has some Red, but I'd say his center of gravity is more Orange. In the first Star Wars movie Han's entire character arc was about him going from Orange to Green. He was this selfish, independent jackass who was too self-centered to join the rebels, and at the last second he changes his mind and flys in to save Luke from Vader's tie-fighter, enabling Luke to make his shot and destroy the Death Star. So, basically, Han Solo's story is that of a selfish jackass who had a change of heart and became an SJW. Star Wars: Rise of The SJW It's amazing how conservatives can love Star Wars and yet not get that the entire movie is about being a SJW.
  16. @LarryW Of course reality is a strange loop.
  17. Of course it's all a matter of perspective. There's not some objective solution to such issues. It's all perspectival, relative, and contingent on one's survival agenda.
  18. This "space" isn't space. It's nowhere and nothing. YES! But it's not a space. It is nowhere. Nowhere is the perciever/subject. But notice, this now creates a new duality: nowhere (space) vs the stuff in it. So this is not yet full nonduality. For full nonduality you must realize that all the form is itself identical to the "space" in which it occurs. If you are distinguishing space from its contents, that is still duality. In the final awakening you must realizing that absolute indifference between form and formlessness. If you distinguish the "space" from the ego, that is a duality. No-self = True Self When everything collapses into ONE, there are no more parts. Your mind is trying to grasp at parts but Unity cannot have any. That's why this is so confusing for you. You are trying to grasp Infinity using the mind but that cannot ever work because the mind itself is entangled with the question. There cannot even be 1) a mind, and 2) a thing which the mind grasps. Since that is still duality. Things ARE mind! The chair is not happening in the mind. The chair IS mind. The end.
  19. Of course. ONENESS! When you see a chair across the room, you ARE that chair.
  20. There are parliamentary democracies. Nope, that won't work. If only it were so easy. People are not going to wake up in large numbers in a libertarian society. Waking up large numbers of people will require serious infrastructure and communal effort. In a libertarian society, devils and egos will run amok and prevent most people from waking up because they will have to be constantly working to protect themselves from the machinations of the devils. Exactly what we have in America today. Waking up lots of people requires infrastructure for consciousness.
  21. Except there is. Most women are still highly attracted to masculine guys. So, for example, if a guy wants to get laid by hot girls, then working on his masculinity is important. Otherwise he might end up an angsty, suicidal Incel who shoots up a school. And there are many other such cases. Like I said, these are very complex survival functions so your mind is not likely to just invent a better alternative. Yes, gender roles are outdated. And, no, gender roles are not outdated, they are still valuable for most guys and girls. Both things are true at once.
  22. To make it really simple, there is no perceiver. There is only the RED perceiving itself. Everything is self-perceiving. The chair perceives itself. Ego takes credit for it.
