But what about my freedom to make you not breathe??? How can you take that liberty away from me? Clearly you're a tyrant.

You have to clarify in your experience what "a brain" is. What does the phrase "a brain" or "my brain" actually refer to in your direct experience? For example, the phrase "Santa Claus" refers to an image of a fat bearded guy in a red costume in your mind. How about "the brain"? You'll have to be very careful here not to get lost in layer upon layer of concept. If you think "my brain" refers to an actual physical object in your skull, think again! That is NOT true in your direct experience. That is a conceptual fabrication because there is no physical brain present in your direct experience. If you're honest, you've probably never seen a brain in your entire life. Which obviously means your entire notion of brains is imaginary. Now, of course, this is where your mind will get extra tricky. It will say, "Okay, but if we cut open my skull there is guaranteed to be a brain in there!" But now you need to carefully notice that this too is imaginary! You are imagining your skull cut open. This is not real in your direct experience. Now you will say, "But what if it becomes real?!" << But that too is imagination! The entire notion of a future is imaginary! You see, imagination works in multiple interwoven layers in order to create a sense of objective reality which isn't really there other than in your mind. If your mind stopped working, objective reality would disappear. Don't take my word for it. Take a look at it. Is there anything about reality which is objective outside your imagining that it is? How is it possible that you have ever accessed anything objective at all when 100% of your experience of life has been subjective???!!! Notice that objectivity is just subjectivity denied. Fun stuff, eh? -

"The radicals who control Joe Biden..." LOL -
Part of the challenge here is seeing the relativity of "healthy". You are in some sense applying a stage Green idea of "health" to stage Red. But stage Red survival happens in a very different environment than modern developed society. So even a warlord or a mobster is not necessarily unhealthy once you consider the environment they have been forced to survive in. It mostly becomes unhealthy when you put that warlord into a modern developed society. Notice, you don't blame a crocodile for being unhealthy when he snaps at an antelope. Yes, it's primitive and exploitative (by today's standards).

That's how it starts. Zuck is in the process of growing a Green consciousness. Early stages. It's hard to surrender what got him so high.

Hey! Don't call our members critters

Awesome! Walter White's entire character arc in Breaking Bad is Blue regressing to Red.

Facebook is growing up. Learning that there's more to business than profits. Shocking!

There will be videos on Purple and Red. This is the foreplay

Orange meets Red: "Personally I blame MTV." A brilliant film, BTW.

Don't recall if this was posted here already, but it's a classic case of Orange idiocy:

Good luck

AKA, a fool. It's amusing that scientists had to invent a complex academic label for "fool". And they named it after themselves

Don't lose sight of the bigger picture: All backstories are imaginary. Your personal story is not true.

Brilliant guy. A shame how quickly he aged.

Speaking of Blue music, they've been perfecting that shit for centuries: P.S. Epic mindfuck when you realize these crusty old white guys are singing about Moses smoking DMT, LOL.

You can snort anything. It's just a question of how much sting you can handle. -
How silly. There is no freedom without the security of your life and health. The whole point of a lockdown is to increase freedom. People don't get how counter-intuitive freedom is.

You got it backwards. -

I still meditate. It's just like ice skating uphill.
