Dave Rubin is the living embodiment of why we need epistemic regulations. Dave Rubin, the online influencer equivalent of an unlicensed electrician.

@UnbornTao Thanks

But how do you live life that way?? You'd have to be like Bubble Boy. How do you expect a building to operate? Smells are part of the world. I believe that's how it works for you. But I think your situation is exceptionally unique and not applicable to most schizophrenics. But hey, if you found the cure to schizophrenia, by all means, make it your life purpose to push that up the culture and make a lot of money and fame for yourself along the way.

@Majed But are you able to understand and integral all them without getting hung up on bad parts?

@UnbornTao Let this go please. Let him have his view.

They are mostly used to profit off people with ADHD. You could certainly use them to teach meditation if you combine with the TAGSync protocol and the right software and if you know what you're doing.

Because it probably won't help them much. You don't think mental wards are clean?

The key to identify Tier 2 is that a mind at Tier 2 truly understands that no one worldview is strictly correct, so it seeks to integrate many worldviews, and it understands that there is a hierarchy of worldviews based on development level and that each level serves its purpose and should not and cannot be eliminated or reduced away. Tier 2 understands that the mind needs to progress up stages, not just leap to its right view. The Tier 2 mind doesn't engage in the worldview battles of the Tier 1 worldviews because it's after a higher synthesis and meta-understanding. And then of course this understanding can be embodied to various degrees. You can't really learn this from ChatGPT because a Tier 1 mind will still be so attached to its worldview that it will want to fight with other worldviews. Tier 2 would be the transcendence of the need to fight and demonize the other views. Letting go of this need is not something that can be achieved just conceptually. So because of this Tier 2 is not a set of beliefs one adopts. Tier 2 is the ability to jump between many different paradigms, taking the best from each without getting trapped in any of them. In a sense, all worldviews start to make sense because you see why they exist and what purpose they serve, even if they are very limited or wrong. Tier 2 is to not get distracted by the obvious wrongness, sort of how a good parent does not let a child's wrongness and ignorance to distract from the underlying love and good intentions.

It's like you're confusing a working fireplace with a raging house fire. Or a garden sprinkler with a busted fire hydrant.

@Twentyfirst Ego is not the same thing as multiple weird voices telling you random paranoid things.

Libertarians are of course epistemic scoundrels:

I present you with the living embodiment of epistemic scoundrelness:

I got ya The master knows who's doing the work.

Trump creates an enormous amount of chaos just to feed his attention-seeking ego. Chaos is the one constant with him.

That's because the mind is such a tricky beast! There are so many different kinds of states of Consciousness and complex ways for mind to misbehave. Even a category like "schizophrenia" is far too simplistic to capture all the neuro-diversity involved. Ken Wilber's AQAL 4 Quadrants model is very important I think for researchers and clinicians to understand and apply for sense-making of mental disorders.

Nice! Thanks. Best of luck in your studies. You're doing important and difficult work. What made you passionate about that?

That dude is classic. If we don't construct concentration camps, someone else will.

@UnbornTao You're being kinda harsh on him. I think his experience was clearly profound.

I would get some sleep but I was tripping hard in my sleep.

Some day.

Not eyes. Just one neverending trip. Imagine a mushroom trip that lasts for 150 hours. That's what it was kinda like.

Frankly it was too much. I was to the point of losing my mind. I was tripping so much I couldn't even sleep, which drives you mad. Nope. 5-MeOs
