Of course you can and should. It's mostly just a matter of timing. Definitely not in the dating phase of things. If you got a serious exclusive relationship locked in, then go for it. Most girls will be very supportive and empathetic. That's what girls are good at. Just maintain your masculine core.

Yes, Buddhism is precise in that respect. But I have not read any Buddhist description of God-Realization. And no Buddhist I talk to can properly tell me what God is. -
I don't have a very high opinion of Yang. Yang's policies are pretty mediocre when you dig into them. But he is not radical, which is nice. The problem with Yang is that he is too easily lured into just neoliberal centrism, similar to Obama.

What you do is question everything, especially all the spiritual group-think you've ingested along your spiritual journey. You think radically for yourself until you deconstruct all of it. I am working on a course which will guide you in this process. Until then you're on your own. Although I also have many videos which explain it. Yes, you have: https://www.actualized.org/articles/an-advanced-explanation-of-god-realization And I am working on a course that will explain it in much more detail. It's difficult to articulate precisely because it is not all those other things you learn about from nondual teachers and Buddhists, who have made a mess of this whole field. It is not trivial to distinguish God-Realization from all the other spiritual state and attainments. Which is why almost nobody reaches it. Even the idea that it can be distinguished is denied by most serious spiritual seekers and gurus. The most serious spiritual practitioners on this forum still have no idea what God is. Despite their claims otherwise. -

No you can't. There is no science that tells you blacks are genetically less intelligent. Science cannot even tell you that there is such a thing as "black people" or "white people". -
Leo Gura replied to Heart of Space's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Dude, I clearly told you above that genetics strongly influences intelligence. THAT DOES NOT MAKE YOUR RACIST NARRATIVE TRUE. Genetics also makes people midgets. That does not mean blacks are midgets. -
I don't turn to games for deep themes. Again, that's like looking for deep themes in my porn. Neither. Diablo 2 style games can be great, but the formula is getting worn out and nothing really beats Diablo 2.

Anyone play Scorn yet? https://store.steampowered.com/app/698670/Scorn/ I don't like puzzle games but the art in this game is just too good to ignore.

I find it funny when people come here to complain that this is such a cult when like 50% of people here disagree with me constantly on things. This place is like a herd of cats. If it was a cult my life would be a lot easier. People have so many different opinions on here that it's a pain just to keep things tidy. In a democracy, people are constantly fighting with each other over worldviews. Which you see lots of here. So much so that I am forced to ban extremists just to keep some order.

Duplicate. We already have a Ye v Lex thread. -
That's exactly my problem with him. I don't care what he does in his private life but when he start influencing politics by being an attention whore with his nonsense, is when we have a problem. The media people need to stop interviewing him. These interviewers are also click-bait whores who throw gasoline on the fire.

It's like we are living in ancient Rome and we both agree that slavery is bad, and then I tell you it will take another 1800 years to abolish it, but you whine to me that I am immoral because we should have abolished it yesterday. Yes, that would be Tier 2, you jackass. Your moralism makes you blind to systems thinking.

Oh God. This guy is just seeking for attention like a child.

Technically there probably are differences in intelligence between races, but they seem to be insignificant and almost entirely overwhemled by cultural and environmental factors. The fact that you ignore those major factors to focus on something so insignificant shows that you are grasping at straws to justify some preexisting bias and narrative you have. Once all the envirnomental factors are equalized it may turn out that blacks have a higher IQ than whites. But you don't take this possibility seriously because it doesn't fit your racist narrative. Firstly, when I talk to a stupid person I mostly attribute it to lack of education, not lack of IQ. It is very hard to tell the difference between these two. But of course there are mentally slow people. However, this has nothing to with race. How come when you see a crazy white person on the street you don't say: white people are genetically more crazy? See, that would be a racist narrative. You are generalizing in improper ways. Yeah, it's taboo because racists have sold this narrative for 100s of years, doing much damage. And this narrative has little scientific support. At best it's a tiny difference after we adjust for environment, which we have not yet done. The problem with such narratives is they become self-fulfulling. Which is why the taboo exists. Once you start calling blacks low-IQ, you will create that reality because IQ is so overwhemlingly shaped by culture. It's okay to call an individual person stupid or crazy or greedy or a rapist. What's not okay is to generalize that to all people of his tribe. That's the key mistake. Genes play a huge role in intelligence, but that does not mean your racist narratives are scientifically valid. The bottom line is that science cannot know the IQ of the races without first equalizing all the environmental factors, which will not happen in our lifetimes. -

Think of it like this: Consciousness is obviously capable of being a human. You experience that. Consciousness is also capable of being a kangaroo. Well, likewise, consciousness is capable of being an alien. So the only question that remains is: What is the experience of being an alien intelligence like? You don't know. But you could. -
Nothing I said contradicts that. The world would also be better if we all drove hydrogen cars. But it ain't gonna happen in our lifetimes and it would be smart to understand why rather than whine about it and throw cans of soup like children.

If Ye is a Jew, then I get to be black and use the n-word and not be racist for it. Aren't Russians a lost tribe of blacks?
-
Oops! Yeah, maybe, although aren't you guilty of this kind of logic too? You are sneaky.

Very dood, but your work ain't done. -
Wordpress is good. Or use an even higher level platform. It does not make much sense coding anything if you can avoid it. There exist platforms and 3rd party solutions for pretty much any element of a site you'd need.

Of course animals use more land. But we are not sarce on land in most places. Regardless this is irrelavent to my videos. Vegans will try to debate this stuff all day and miss the big picture. Even if vegansim is best, healthiest, cheapest, greenest, most ethical, it doesn't matter.
