Imagine for a moment everything that could ever possibly exist, even in theory. Imagine even everything that can't be imagined. Is there anything beyond that?

SD is not a religious belief system. It is a scientific model. By his logic every scientific model is silly and unnecessary. He might as well be arguing, "Why believe what Einstein said? If you are openminded you don't need General Relativity." Precisely because it allows you to predict why they think how they think, how they will resist changing their thinking, and what the next level of thinking looks like. It also allows you to avoid very common traps ans sticking points. Without SD your Dad doesn't even know what he's missing. This is known as the pre/trans fallacy, conflating advanced mysticism with fundamentalist religion. True spirituality is not a belief at all. It is direct consciousness of the Absolute. If you just blindly believed Leo, then yes, you would be falling into a stage Blue trap. But that is as silly as saying, "By believing your math teacher you are just being stage Blue and math is just true in your math teacher's experience and it's different for everyone so I don't need it." God and Consciousness are beliefs in the same way the sun is a belief. "Again, you are limited in your beliefs like Blue because you claim the sun exists. I don't need a manmade concept like 'the sun' to help me." And if we can decide which labels to give to elements on the periodic table, I would call one of them Dumbassium Your dad is simply closedminded and uneducated about developmental psychology. Maybe, like, read a book on developmental psychology before opining on it with such hubris.

Because their perspective is biased by their survival agenda. A woman does not understand what is required for a guy to attract a woman. Understanding this requires lots of experience attracting women. Which women do not have. It is also not in their self-interest to understand it. It would be like a rabbit understanding how to hunt rabbits. This does not compute in the rabbit's mind. The rabbit cannot imagine the hunting of rabbits. The rabbit will just give you advice to preclude hunting altogether because the rabbit must be anti-hunting to survive. So there is an unconscious conflict of interest problem. That is dating advice. Women do not spend time analyzing guys who approach them. Generally yes, but a woman is not the right person to ask about how not to be creepy. She hasn't spent much time thinking about this from the guy's POV.

I wasn't talking about the effects of climate change. Those are more long-term. I was talking more about the next 10-20 years. The effects of immigration crises due to climate change and the right-wing backlash that could cause is potentially be a big deal, but I don't see that happening yet for at least 20+ years and it's too hard to predict anything that far into the future.

Not too much further, as it becomes self-defeating. I think most decent conservatives are starting to see that Trump is a disaster and he is incapable of really helping them. There will always be an extremist fringe, but I don't see them taking over the government. Trump was their best chance and he failed.

Camping is much harder since you will need to plan logistics well and worry about the elements. Make sure you pack everything you need for survival. -

125ug is a full God-consciousness for me. Things would be profound even at half that dose. -

1) Don't trip when you are in a bad mood. 2) Don't trip for the purpose of experiencing bliss or pleasure. Those are your two mistakes. -
@Milos Uzelac Still, today's right wing is less extreme and more evolved than the fascists of the 1920's and 30's. So it's not identical, but there are important similarities.

Every ego's take is partial and self-biased. Every ego has a POV as to what's going on in the world, and all of these POV are biased and shaped by one's survival needs and level of consciousness. There is going to be a kernel of truth even in things which Bannon or Hitler say. The real test is how they act when they get power.
-
I feel ya. But this is not a life purpose. This is a satisfaction of your personal needs. And if this is the thing you most want, how come you are too weak to approach? You should be doing 20 approach/day rather than making excuses.
-
Hehehe... Yeah, right-wing populism has a long and rich tradition. Hitler's whole appeal was that he was supposedly restoring power to the ordinary working German which was stolen from him by elitist communist globalist Jews. Meanwhile Bannon worked for Goldman Sachs and was arrested on a $25 million yacht. Meanwhile Trump's tax cuts gave neo-libs and globalists billions in tax breaks while screwing the working class. Bannon is a neo-lib globalist in his personal business life. He just happens to have a veneer of nationalist ideology over top of that. Nothing new here. Such people have no intellectual integrity and they are nothing like Bernie or AOC.

@Carl-Richard Great share! Healthy Blue to balance out all the FoxNews-like trashy Blue.

There is no absolute dosage. It will be different for everyone. -
1) It requires A LOT of practice, which requires SERIOUS motivation and vision 2) Finding a few local wing-men is a game-changer. It's very hard to start solo. You need at least 1 experienced wing-man who's into approaching girls and is serious about it. It takes 1000+ approaches to start to get comfortable with it. And it takes 5000+ approaches to get good. Tired?? You haven't even begun yet

It's called alcohol. Which is why bars and clubs exist. That's probably how you were born. Haha! Yeah... that's how it is for every guy. Welcome to the world of cold approach. Fear is there to be faced. Facing that fear is what separates a boy from a man. There is no short-cut but to do it.

Stop asking women for dating advice if you are a guy.

Everyone around Trump is basically a fraudster. That is their MO. -
To be the most selfless you must forget about morality. God is more like amorality. Morality is that which prevents you from realizing that everything is Good.

Usually it will take the form of learning science and realizing that most of religion is bullshit and so switching to atheism. -
Talk a lot about yourself. Your life, your goals, your feelings, your opinions. Be narcissistic. That's what extroverts naturally do. Don't filter the details of your life. And don't feel an obligation to make sense or be logical.

@r0ckyreed It's very simple: you are imagining morality. It is whatever you imagine it to be and it will not hold for anyone other than yourself. But it's even worse than that. It won't even hold for true for you. You yourself will violate your own morality for the sake of survival. Because your commitment is not to anything but the preservation of your ego-mind and your identity.
