That is certainly wrong. But doesn't address the issue as a whole.

What's gross is that RSD would stoop this low for what is very little money, a few tens of thousands of dollars. This is like a millionaire robbing a homeless guy. Owen should not need to behave this way when he has a very successful business.

You are doing the strawman. 10+ million illegals. Yet leftists act like it's not a problem and needs no solution, just more of the same. Right-wingers are correct on illegal immigration. It needs to stop. Leftists are in denial on this issue. Which is why Trump now gets to use so much force. The left has made this an issue when it shouldn't be. No one should be for illegal immigration. That position fuels fascism and nationalism. This is how leftism fails. No one has a right to illegally cross the southern border and live in the US scot-free. This is a liberal fantasy.

Your hypothesis that Infinity is an illusion is false. Wise men have proclaimed the existence of Infinity for 5,000 years. Nothing particularly new here. I just make it easy to understand.

Great speech!

Identity is deeply intertwined with that's good for one's survival. So makeup is good for survival and then a girl also turns it into a passion, a hobby, an art, a career, and an identity. It all blends together so it feels organic and natural. So that then she can honestly claim: This is just the true ME! If it felt like a front to her, the illusion would not be real. Likewise, Jordan Peterson genuinely believes the shit he is selling. He lives in his own self-constructed reality bubble. So does Hitler. So does Bin Laden. So does a Zionist. So does an Incel. Etc. Identity enmeshes itself with whatever helps its survival, like tofu soaks up any flavor it's cooked with.

I never claimed otherwise.

Dude, they are looking for Americans to hold hostage. They will plant some weed in your luggage and then lock you up for 20 years as Putin's hostage. No fucking thanks!

Calling makeup a hobby is an insult to women. Dance, yoga, fitness -- plenty of healthy feminine hobbies.

It's an interesting commentary on toxic masculinity but also the need for toughening up soft men.

Every cult leader uses some genuine spiritual techniques to lure in sheep. It deepens the trap. Owen has many valid techniques and insights, but it's corrupted by his personal stuff. A cult is built to serve the cult leader's wounds and ego needs: money, sex, fame, power, love. Consider to what degree RSD exists to serve Owen's survival needs. I'm not calling him a cult leader, just using that for reference.

@Husseinisdoingfine You never know when a new war would start and they kidnap you and send you to the front lines. I speak about corruption. That's a big no-no in Russia.

Fitness can be done for health, not appearance. I exercise to keep my health up. Being fat is not healthy. Lifting weight is good for bones, muscle, heart, mood, longevity, etc. Jogging 30 min per day reduces ass cancer risk by like 35%. Makeup, on the other hand, poisons skin with nasty chemicals and heavy metals.

You can locate a therapist, coach, or spiritual counselor who doesn't have such a power.

Duplicate thread.

Anyone watched The Surfer? Curious on folks' opinions.

Fitness can be pursued for yourself. Makeup, less so. Makeup is definitionally for others. If I exercise or jog, it's purely for myself.

As I have said many times, for meditation to be effective for God-Realization requires doing hardcore week-long non-stop retreats. If you did that, you would understand how meditation is more powerful than a helicopter. 1 hour of meditation is like pissing into the ocean and expecting it to turn yellow.

No chance. I would be killed there. I was born in Kazakhstan. But my genetics is Russian/Ukrainian.

I am saving that for the book. I have already shared too much. These are all topics from my book.

It's the right planet, but after you walk on the moon you still have to return to Earth and get around using your car, so knowing how to drive well is still an important skill to master. Meditators can be like rocketeers who never learned how to drive. But you can't live on the moon forever. You still gotta survive Earth. Look, these analogies are not perfect. You're expecting too much perfection here.

I was mocking girly rationalizations.

Thinking is still important. It just won't get you to the final levels of God. It's more like this: You use a helicopter to fly as high up as it will go. Then, you launch your rocket from the helicopter. Yes. That's all true. This doesn't contradict my analogy. Helicopter is still a powerful and necessary tool. Most terrestrial work is better done with helicopter than rocket. Yes, correct. I am obviously not against thinking. Nor am I against doing science. Helicopters are good. Just know their limits and don't crash into a mountaintop.

Luckily no one listens to me, so we're safe

Glad you like it I got hundreds of pages of this shit.
