Lots of stuff is a social construct but that doesn't mean it is readily changed. Good luck getting guys to wear high heels. Language is one of the most socially constructed things there is. And yet, it's hard to get people to change their vocabulary.

@Fran11 Some small degree of that is happening, but mostly people still fall into pretty strong gender binary roles, and I don't see that changing. Maybe 5-10% will skew in quirky directions, but most will be happy being more masculine and more feminine. At least in our lifetimes.

Ah... but it's not so simple. So long as you are in that physical body, you will have a strong identification with your sex. Sex is a deep physiological aspect of what you are as a human on the relative plane. And this cannot be changed willy-nilly. The hormones running your brain and body play a HUGE role in shaping your raw experience of life, not to mention your thoughts and emotions. So it's not as easy as having robots do all our physical labor for us. If you want to completely decouple gender and sex, you'll have to become like a brain in a vat hooked up to some VR game. Or via genetic engineering. But assuming your genes stay that same, you'll have attachments to masculine and feminine qualities.

Become infinitely conscious and see for yourself what's up. You are God, after all.

There actually is no such thing as POVs. There is only your direct experience. All POVs are inside your POV. The concept of Points of View is inherently dualistic. It too much collapse.

Gender is just an aspect of self-identity/ego. And all identity is relative & imaginary. You could identify with being a unicorn and no one could stop you as long as you believed in it hard enough. After all, that's exactly what you're doing right now when you identify as a human. "Human" is a totally imaginary identity.

Is there really such a thing though? Which country has a purely capitalist society?

Only in your mind Reality is relative and imaginary. Which means that if you imagine other people are real, they will be real for you. But if you ever stop imagining they are real, they will stop being real. Which is precisely why people are so insistent that others are real. That insistence is the very thing which makes them real. If you stop insisting, they will stop being real. But you will insist this isn't so. So there you go again

Exactly! What you have yet to realize is that Absolute Truth is a tautology.

Since Love is absolute, everything that happens is already in the service of Love. So you have no choice in the matter. Whatever you do will increase Love in the world. The more evil you become the more Love your evilness with spawn in response. Have you noticed yet? The evolution of society cannot be stopped. Politics is a force of nature no different than the moon orbiting the Earth.

That's because reactionary right-wingers have made a cottage industry out of cherrypicking and demonizing feminism. As they do with BLM, socialism, homosexuality, gender identity, and many other reasonable things.

No, it's something you are imagining I'm imagining The infinite regress to nothingness is not a bug, it's the prime feature. All roads lead to nothing and nowhere. Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind

Don't throw your entire music career under the bus. Just upgrade your ambitions to make more elevated music. There is no problem with making great music and being deeply conscious. This is a fantastic opportunity! There is some amazing music out there that is like sex to the ears of a conscious being. You just gotta start creating outside the box of mainstream culture. Music can be a powerful driver of spirituality. A gateway drug for the soul

Cool it guys. Don't make this personal.

God is an Infinite Dreamer dreaming an Infinite Dream. One dream, two dreams, three... What's the difference, don't you see? What's the difference 'tween you and me?

The metaphysics of loneliness is that you are ONE. One is the loneliest number... something, something... If what you seek is Ultimate Truth, then naturally you will end up alone. You will be so alone you will become together and whole, completing one revolution in the mind of God.

That's the kicker! Other people only exist in your awareness. You are imagining imaginary people in an imaginary forest, and then imagining that you aren't imagining it but that it's real! Hehehe... You sneaky devil

It's counter-intuitive: the chasing of bliss is the very thing which prevents it. Bliss is a consequence of fully facing one's fear and not needing to manipulate your experience. It's problematic to be doing psychedelics with the expectation of bliss. I would drop that expectation and instead aim for Truth and understanding. Bliss is the fruit off the tree of understanding. Focus on watering the roots of your tree rather than jumping like a thirsty monkey at the unripened green fruits.

You are looking at this in terms of sex. The proper way to look at it is in terms of growth. He's not doing those 1000 approaches to get 1 hot girl. He's doing it to overcome his fears and to develop strength as a man. That development will pay dividends for a lifetime. So it's worth doing even if you only get 1 or 2 lays out of it. And like I said, result grow exponentally. So the next 1000 appraoches after that could produce 2-4 lays. And the next 1000, 4-8 lays, and the next 1000, 8-16 lays. And by that point you are getting more pussy than most guys can dream of. Business works the same way. The first few years of starting a biz, you work non-stop but earn nothing.

There are some radical feminists who take feminism too far by turning it into an extreme Green ideology. But this is much rarer than toxic masculinity.

Rick Doblin must have given him a bag of psychedelics after his recent interview

The riots are stopped by police already. Trump could certainly stop the protests by listening to them and putting forth a solution on police reform and increasing black rights.

You're looking at this all wrong. This is not an experience you want to come in trying to avoid, but fully experience and savor. The problem with getting shot in the face is that you have no idea how scary and traumatic it can be. You think you are macho enough to handle it, but you probably aren't and will just end up freaking yourself out and never trying again. Slow and steady wins the race here. You are never going to out-macho or bull your way through psychedelics. They can always dish out more than you can handle.

The shocker is, not only is there no sound, there is not even a forest unless you are aware of it.

@Johnny5 While the universe is appearing, it is still Absolute Truth, however it appears.
