Even logic requires observation to make sense of it. Logic is an experience.

@ricachica Yes, he fakes his demos. But that doesn't mean he doesn't deliver. The reason he fakes his demos is because when you have a large vision for something new, you don't have anything to show people. But you need their money to build it. This is not so perplexing or shocking. Innovative business requires making bold promises using mockups and flimsy demos. The more important question is whether he delivers on the promises in the end. He often does. Musk is a bullshit artist but also good at delivering the goods. Trump is purely a bullshit artist.

In the end, without observation you don't exist. So, all knowing requires observation.

It's a terrible argument. Until you Awaken. Then it is absolutely true.

@AtmanIsBrahman You cannot know that God exists just from the fact that it is possible that God exists. That is pure question-begging. No one ever denies that it is possible God exists. What they deny is that the possibility was ever actualized.

@DocWatts Very cool!

@AtmanIsBrahman The problem is that it's question-begging. You don't know if anything is strictly necessary until Awakening happens. Then you know everything is necessary. But you should not assume that. What things are necessary? is an empirical question that requires investigation and grounding. Are cats necessary? That's not obvious.

Well, eventually you realize that literally everything is necessary. Which is Infinity. The only way to have any thing is to have everything.

God works in mysterious ways.

No, I have a few of their songs. They have some good ones. But I don't listen to pop music so much anymore.

GOAT!

A necessary space kangaroo.

If you make a vape pen, you can slowly sip on 5-MeO without blasting yourself.

@Nemra I know Imagine Dragons. Very mainstream.

The delusion is the ego power trip. And the idea that mankind needs him to survive and thrive. No individual human is needed. Mankind does not need to go to Mars. These are power fantasies. When you think you are that important it ends in delusion and evil. Is Musk powerful. Yes. Is Trump powerful. Yes. Yes, egoic delusions DO work for gaining power. That's the whole point of why ego exists. And also ego is evil.

He def got radicalized. He is at war now with wokeness. Before he was not. The reason Musk went to war with wokeness is because he realized wokeness was threatening his desire for absolute power. Wokeness requires sharing of power. Musk wants to operate like a king. Musk has genuine compassion, but it is completely intertwined with his ego and need for power. So he will rationalize to himself that whatever he's doing is the highest good and therefore the most compassionate path. Musk cares about doing good, but only in ways that allow him to be king and get his way.

Just keep tripping more and contemplating, and you will figure it out. Plugging is better because it is less jarring and gives more time to contemplate what is happening Blasting yourself with 5-MeO is not ideal for sensemaking.

Musk is a grandiose egomaniac. What drives him is not money, it is his sense of self-importance. He needs to feel like he is ultra important and in charge of mankind's future. Like without him mankind will perish. That's his fundamental delusion. He's living out a power fantasy. Same as Trump.

Could become a trap. Far from useless. Yes, if you totally stop thinking you can be at peace. But peace is not the only game in town.

Follow the way of Bin Laden. 6 wives.

God damn! That's good. I was more right than I knew.

Don't forget his ketamine use and his social media addiction. Twitter alone could have broken his brain. Online self-radicalization is a real thing. The problem is Musk had no epistemic foundation. So he was easily radicalized by online echochambers.

@AION Maybe you should actually honor genuine conservatism and contemplate why marriage has existed for 10,000+ years in every nation and culture on the planet.

Those who want it will find it. Those who don't find it don't really want it.
