@AION Of course, Jurassic: Slop, what did you expect? Don't watch blatant cash-grabs. I basically don't watch any sequels to anything. Sequels are shit. You need to look for smaller creative films. Sequels are a trap! Franchises are a trap! Original one-off films only. The entire function of a sequel is for the producers to be lazy and feed you creative bankrupcy. And you gobble it up like a sucker along with everyone else. This is scamming 101.

@TheEnigma Yes, that is good insight. Corruption is sneaky and difficult to measure. However, it is still obvious that Russia and India have way worse corruption than America and Canada. Although now with Trump that is being reversed. There are also different types and scales of corruption. It's a very tricky subject.

Yes. I need to migrate servers. This is not a quick or easy thing. I will fix it in the coming weeks. Until then hang in there.

Of course. There's no reason to be poor. Become a massive value provider. Buddhists are lazy bastards.

Of course. They will purge the whole government of anyone who isn't a MAGA loyalist.

I was happily hate-watching the first seven episodes. But by Ep7 it got so bad I had to stop watch entirely. This show can burn in Hell. Advancing the frontiers of Disney slop.

The truest thing to ever leave Trump's filthy mouth.

@Nemra Yes, he's a serious objective scholar. He displays high intellectual integrity and epistemic rigor, as a good academic must. Academia is not all bad. Koktin is academia at its best. No bullshit, just straight facts and solid rational analysis.

At this point it is quite likely Epstein supplied girls to Trump. How young they were is unclear. Of course other major conservative donors and power-brokers are also involved. Of course there will be a few liberals in there as well, like Clinton. It's much worse than most people expect.

Nothing ironic about it. Trump has been a well-known sex pest from day one. Sex pest is his life-calling and he surrounds himself with other sex pests. Sex pests of a feather flock together.

Musk, Thiel, Bannon caught in Epstein files. Literal MAGA perverts oozing out of the shadows.

Yes, Steve Bannon's mission is to spread MAGA across Europe and the globe. They are creating a propaganda network to disseminate MAGA ideology like the virus that it is. Musk is in on it.

Yes, of course. I already said that. It's a game of SURVIVAL! You are missing the centrality of SURVIVAL. EVERYTHING humans do is unconscious survival. including post-modernism and all academic philosophy. If you don't care about survival then there is no hierarchy of values or perspectives. You can jump off a cliff and there is no problem and no concerns. And if a fascist rapes your children then you can just shrug your shoulders and continue about your day without a care in the world. But don't kid yourself. You're not beyond survival. So our discussion always assumes your care about survival, since if you didn't there would nothing left to discuss.

Gay right-wing sex pest:

Melatonin is chemically similar to DMT, so not too surprising. But this is unique to your genetics and brain chemistry. Don't expect it to be the same for most humans. You have some unique brain chemistry that makes this possible which most people won't have. So consider yourself very lucky.

No way, no how. Not in a million years. Not in the same ballpark. Not on the same planet. Not even in the same universe. However, there is a crucial caveat: most people's trips are so weak that meditation could easily match that level of weakness. But if we're talking about trips like mine. No way. No meditator will reach those states of consciousness. The issue is that people have weak trips and then assume that's what I'm talking about and then act shocked that I deny their meditation. The issue is that you don't know the states I'm talking about and you probably never will. They are completely beyond human imagination or experience. They cannot even be stored in human memory. The consciousness is so advanced that a human mind cannot even remember it.

Stop it. I expect epistemic responsibility from you guys.

We all know it's perfect, but just in case This should be a doozy. Let's hear it all. No guarantees of implementation. Be gentle with me. I might cry.

Sure. But we don't know what it is.

It has to play itself out. The ugliness of it needs to materialize to the point of pain. Like 50 years. You can't use Infinity to say whether some course of future action is necessary or not. The future is unknown and depends on our actions. Infinity does not require that we act like regressive jackasses. But we might anyway.

Kotkin is an ace!

Yeah, but nowadays it's all about profit maximization. The corruption of late Stage Orange has set in. Remember, each stage only goes so far, after which point it becomes dysfunctional and sclerotic. Orange is turning into a rotting putrid corpse. Orange was healthy 200 years ago.

Right-wingers are incapable of genuine moral behavior because that requires consciousness and higher stages of development. Stage Blue morality has always been a sham. And Stage Orange only values money, so you can't have morality there either.
