  2. I don't know. That's up to you to decide. Be careful not to overuse the leftplaining concept. It can easily become a thought-terminating cliche.
  3. That's why I'm starting a whorehouse
  4. No, unless you're using art for status or as part of the pursuit of luxury. Art as luxury would be buying a famous painting so you can show it off to your rich friends.
  5. I don't understand your point.
  6. There is a lack of reality on this issue on the left. No amount of quibbling, hairsplitting, or left-splaining can undermine that point.
  7. @Nilsi Do you understand why luxury is an obstacle to truth? Don't get lost in nitpicking the things I say, grasp the larger point. There's always a larger point at stake.
  8. He seems like a legit yogi from what I've seen of him. Though I haven't dug too deeply into his community and so forth. I don't have a problem with legit yogis. They are a net good for the world. I get the sense that he is genuine and good-hearted, but appearance can be deceiving.
  9. @Karmadhi I don't have a problem with action against Israel. My problem is with the lack of deep understanding, the skewing of the situation by leftists. Leftists are sacrificing truth and understanding for social justice, which is what I oppose. Truth must come first, social justice second, not the other way around. Israel can be sanctioned without the ideological thinking. The protestor ideology is what I oppose. The hysterical genocide chants and so forth. This precludes serious understanding of a complex situation, which is necessary to solve it.
  10. You can dress well without luxury. I am not against dressing well. Luxury isn't about utility or even aesthetics, it's about status. Must I post this?:
  11. @LoneWonderer My pleasure
  12. Oh stop it. This is such leftist drivel.
  13. Pakistan has a friendly and cooperative relationship with the US and the CIA. Pakistan helps the US hunt down terrorists.
  14. @NewKidOnTheBlock China is one nation and Europe is not. So that division is not going away.
  15. But that economic development matters! Economics is pure survival value. Yes, Israel has much better economics which allows it to be more developed and civilized. It's not just easier to seem moral, it is the foundation for actual morality. Morality requires survival margin. Desperate people do desperate things. If I put a gun to your child's head you would start acting in immoral ways. And yes, upper hand matters too. America too would use nukes if backed absolutely into a corner. But the point is that America has enough margin to never be backed into such a corner. The margin isn't incidental, it is fundamental to development. Hamas are like rats in a frying pan. So they act like lunatics. It's sad, but it just is what it is and you have to deal with the rat at hand, not some hypothetical would-be scenario. If a mentally ill homeless man attacks you on the street, you gotta deal with him immediately, you cannot sit around lamenting about how unfair his childhood was. Yes, I'm sure his childhood was very unfair, but now he is a violent lunatic about to bite your face off. You cannot just let him run loose around your family.
  16. Awakening is such a radical state change that it feels like you've broken reality. It's a state change so radical that the human mind cannot even imagine that such a state change is possible. It is an impossible state. So yeah... nothing you've been doing has been it or even in the ballpark of it. I know it's frustrating. I'm just being very straight with you so you don't waste your time jerking off. Really what you need is a breakthrough dose of 5-MeO-DMT. That would show you what I am talking about. A lot of stuff I say will suddenly make a lot more sense.
  17. I don't know if it's good business. It's a possible business.
  18. @Santiago Ram Congrats!
  19. I spent hours this week reading step by step about how Mossad assassinated top nuclear scientists. Poisoned, mail bombed, car bombed, shot in the face. Anyone who comes close to building a nuke in the Middle East will get a visit from Mossad assassins. That's how serious they take this matter. Netanyahu nearly launched an IDF invasion of Iran to take out their nuclear facilities.
  20. Luxury is often impractical. Case in point. When you are installing glass toilets, that's when you know your life is hollow.
  21. One object is not the issue. The issue is people who make their life about pursuit of luxury. This does not apply to you, so don't worry about it.
