@Mongu9719 Maybe try it a few times before you go criticizing. What sense does it make to criticize a thing you have not tried?

But that's not how people vote. People do not vote on policy, they vote using their gut which follows their level of development. People vote based on the candidates personality and vibe more than policy. On paper, yes, people like many progressive policies, but they are also scared of change and they vote like sheep in a herd. They do not carefully evaluate things and they are not willing to make the sacrifices necessary to make Green happen. It's easy to say you want Med4All in a poll. It's a lot harder when you realize your taxes might go up, and you might have to sacrifice your current doctor to make it happen, and you might have to vote against your own family, friends, and church group. It's like if you polled people in Iraq whether they want to live in a rich democractic country. They would all say yes. But when you tell them they have to surrender fundamentalist Islam and clan warfare and petty corruption, they will not be able to do it because they haven't developed that high yet. Good stuff comes at a cost. It isn't free. If you want to live in a democracy there are certain sacrifices that must be made, like tolerating your neighbhor who has a different religion than you. Or not killing gays for being gay. You'd think such sacrifices are not a big deal, but they are a big deal to many traditional people. People are scared of change. People are scared of selflessness. Most people treats politics and life as an arms race, looking to gain the most advantage for themselves rather than doing what is best for the collective. People's fear , hate, and selfishness overpowers their love, hope, and selflessness. It's easy to say you want love, but will you actually follow through when your survival is threatened? Will you lay down your fear and judgment? Most won't. People want love but aren't willing to pay the cost to get it. Good luck convincing a mother of 3 who works in accounting for the health insurance industry to support Med4All when it means that she will likely lose her job and her kids will not get the toys they want for Xmas. It's not just evil corporations at work here. The "evil corporations" are supported by many middle class folks because it pays their bills. "The establishment" is made out of ordinary citizens, not some special race of evil reptile people. How do you convince ordinary citizens to sacrifice for the greater good? << That is the root problem here. And also, how do you get them to stop thinking and acting like herd animals? In a herd, even if one sheep develops a mind of its own, very soon it will be peer pressured by the herd to fall back in line. The herd feels comfy with Biden. Policies be damned.

It's not rigged against Bernie, the majority of the country is simply not educated or developed enough to vote for Green. In a democracy, not the best candidates wins, but the one who best matches the development level of the people. That what we're seeing. That's also why Trump won. The simple fact is, Americans are pretty damn ignorant, so you shouldn't expect them to all of the sudden elect amazing people. That has never been the case. What Bernie supporters and progrrssives need to understand is that they are in a bubble. The majority of the Americans are not progressive, they are moderate. "The establishment" is not just the corporations, media, and Washington, it is most of the citizens as well. The media is establishment precisely because that's what most people pay to watch, not because the media is somehow overriding the will of the people. The will of the people is just not very bright and the media reflects that. The establishment IS the people. That's what progessives are in denial about. I see a lot of progressives in denial about thier own biases, projecting their progressive bias on the media and estblaishment. When a progressive calls the media biased, the truth is, the progressive is biased but cannot see it, so the only option is to blame the media. Joe Biden didn't win because of a rigged media. He won because that's where most people are at. And that's a very difficult thing for progressives to admit. Progressives need to admit that most people are not progrssives. This is a more realistic starting point rather than assuming that a majority of people are progressives but some evil "establishment" is holding them back. That gets into fantastical conspiracy theory territory which fails to properly identify the problem and take responsibility for it.

I don't really see Bernie winning it now. Most of the country is still not developed enough to see Bernie's appeal, hence Biden is what a majority can agree on. Don't forget that most of the US is not a solid stage Green. So it's really hard for solid Green to get elected. Before someone like Bernie can win, voters have to grow up (or die). Most would rather die than grow up. So here we are.

Biden still has a good chance of beating Trump.

@Exystem Your descriptions of Infinity are right on.

You are not going to be able to extract 5-MeO-DMT from grass. N,N-DMT maybe, if you're a good chemist with equipment. Not worth it. Much easier to get synthetic.

I don't think Bernie will win a majority. It will be a contested convention and the establishment will try to do whatever they can to get Biden to win.

I suspect Pete may have struck a backroom deal with Biden to be his VP. The centrists are gonna quickly consolidate now. It's gonna be Bernie vs Biden.

See The Dark Side Of Meditation video. Spiritual purificiation is not a pleasant process.

I get that, but the people she lures in with that marketing ploy will start to create that identity.

Lol Next time tell her that you're God

Yup How can you be bored on shrooms???

No because none of you here are at those levels and the examples would mostly be wrong. It's hard enough to get clear Turquoise examples.

An Orange materialist misunderstanding Green & Turquoise:

Talk about spiritual ego. "Jedi" is just another identity/attachment.

@Javfly33 Yes, you are THIS. But what is THIS? Rather than endlessly verbally question THIS, just sit in silence and focus attention on THIS. And just sit like that for hours. Very gently, very gently wonder, "What is THIS?" Do not expect an verbal answer. The answer is THIS itself. The goal here is remove the boundary between THIS and your mind.

You can use a volcano like device or even create your own vape pen carts. Just avoid toxic oils that will ruin your lungs. Use pure turpenes inside of oil. Both methods work excellently and can be used with basically any powedered psychedelics, including 5-MeO-DMT. You can made a 5-MeO-DMT vape pen. But watch out, even one puff is very intense. Plugging is still superior for 5-MeO-DMT. If N,N-DMT plugged, I would plug it.

Solipsism is not awakening. The mistake is thinking that what I'm talking about is solipism when I never made such a claim. The mind desperately wants some way to understand awakening so it grabs at every philosophical system is can: solipsism, nihilism, panpsychism, Buddhism, etc. And all of that is not awakening.

The notion that you have a brain is itself the maze of your mind. To escape the maze is to realize it never existed other than in your imagination. When you think, "This is caused by the brain", that's you trapping yourself in the maze. The maze of materialism.

That's exactly what's happening. But evolution takes time. We are smack dab in the middle of it. People take evolution for granted, thinking it's something that happened a million years ago. No. It's happening right now, via you.

You are speaking nonsense. You haven't realized what it means to be God. You are playing games. When you finally realize you are God, you will shout it from the top of your lungs. And all of your logic will fly out the window. You need to say "I am God" precisely because you're not conscious that you are. False humility is not a virtue here.

Vaped some moderate doses of N,N-DMT. To me it feels very similar to a low dose of 5-MeO-DMT. Very similar headspace, but 5-MeO-DMT is a lot more potent. 5x to 10x more potent.

Ignorant people love to congregate together so they can reinforce each others ignorance.

This ain't going anywhere good.
