    Hitler didn't kill liberals- he killed anyone who wasn't blonde haired and blued eyed - and a Nazi - namely the Jews.

    That's what extreme nationalists do.

    Why do conservatives in America wanna deport the browns?

    Hitler considered Jews to be liberals, Marxists, Communists, and globalists. Jews were the source of the liberalism he opposed, both in ideology but also in physical form. The Jews were the embodiment of everything that was corrupting the purity of German tradition, blood, and soil.

    American conservatives believe that hispanics and gays are corrupting the purity of white America.

    We are well aware of Musk's posts and political leanings by now.

    I don't see any point in grilling him on it.

    Don Lemon came off like an SJW demanding Musk to account for this thought-crimes. It feels so tired.

    Yes, Musk has some bad political takes.

    If you look at how Lex Fridman interviews guests, he doesn't try to grill them with SJW political questions. And it results in more meaningful answers. Don Lemon was just repeating his CNN show on Twitter.

    What I am saying is that if you ARE God-Realized, cannot there be a human or beyond-human way to communicate that to me without doubt?

    You are essentially saying that there is no way you can communicate it to me without doubt.

    THAT's a weak answer, I would say.

    God can't be communicated to you.

    If it could, it wouldn't be God.

    You take the limits of communucation for granted.

    How can I know YOU are not bullshiting?

    It's a weak question because you believe all sorts of stuff that humans tell you all the time.

    How do you know anything humans tell you is real? You go out and test it for yourself.

    I could be bullshitting you. Go find out. This work is not about believing me, it's about doing practices to have new experiences of reality.

    To be fair to Owen, he's developed many aspects of himself across the Spiral, so we should not try to pigeonhole him too much.

    I said Orange because he's so ambitous and business and success oriented. It's like he cannot just chill, he feels like a rat constantly running after more cheese to satisfy his ego's endless appetite for adventure, excitement, status, influence, sex, etc.

    Of course he has spiritual qualities too.

    The problem with the interview was that Don was asking kinda shallow, useless  CNN style questions. Which is why I think Musk got annoyed.

    You have to understand that a serious creative like Musk want to talk about more substantive issue than to respond to his own Tweets. Lemon doesn't get that and nitpicks Musk on political correctness. Musk is not a politically correct guy. We all know that. There is no point asking him about that.

    If would like if Don Lemon did a long interview with me but only asked me questions about stupid shit I posted on this forum over the years. Why would I be interested in such a pointless interview?

    Yes, people inevitably post stupid shit if they are social media long enough. That's not an interesting discussion. Musk posts stupid shit. I post stupid shit. It happens.

    Overall, Musk's answers were pretty straightforward and genuine. You don't have to agree with his politics to see where he's coming from. But people keep looking for outrage.
