  1. I’ve been following your political takes for a long time. You have talked about systemic racism, I will just mention this qutoe from Lyndon B. Johnson, “Negro poverty is not white poverty.” Honestly, I think the Democratic Party should be working to fix issues around systemic racism and economic inequality. Black people in the U.S. face unique challenges, and let’s be real, a lot of the so-called “anti-woke” stuff about Black issues is just plain racism.
  2. I agree with you on the trans stuff and other things can go to far, but DEI is a good, that racist people hate.
  3. lol, Lenin actually talk about this. Because the proletariat is still so divided, so degraded, so corrupted in parts [...] that an organization taking in the whole proletariat cannot directly exercise proletarian dictatorship. It can be exercised only by a vanguard that has absorbed the revolutionary energy of the class. — Lenin He bascally saying people on the higher end of the spiral have to take control.
  4. I see. So, psychedelics only change the person's perception, not the thing itself. But I guess there would have to be someone else present to perceive it differently/ as before the psychedelics/normal.
  5. @Leo Gura In the Psychedelic Visualizations video you posted on your blog, I have a question — maybe two. Are you saying that when someone takes a psychedelic, they see the world as it truly is — that reality is non-material? If that's the case, does it mean that when someone on a hard drug like meth hallucinates, their hallucinations are also "more real" than normal perception? For example, if I were standing next to someone taking a psychedelic and filmed everything around us, the camera would just capture the normal world, right? Basically, my question is: if these experiences only happen inside the person's mind, how can you know you're not just hallucinating — similar to how a person on the street might see ghosts while high?
  6. Well I don’t like wine. But I like rpgs😁 have you played baldur’s gate 3 or dragon age, what’s your opinion them? I have baldurs gate 3 on Xbox but have not started for full yet, finding the turn based systems unusual, so a friend recommended me, just doing the story mode.
  7. yeah, I tried to play when you said it was one the best games ever made but I could not get over the graphics. So I gave up after an hour, I have never tried mods on anything, but I will give it a shot!
  8. I really wish you would talk more about society and politics in your blog posts, like vids you did before, really miss them.
  9. serious? maybe I have lost some context.
  10. any readings or videos to watch apart from yours?
  11. You write beautifully, Leo. Like a rational minded Rumi 😂😁
  12. @Leo Gurawhy though? Is it really any worse than give it to immoral, fascist supporting a american tech companies. Who sell your data till the highest bidder.
  13. Hey, guys! Just so that Leo put out an video on his blog about africa's geography, and how the geography negatively impacts africa. It reminded my about a video I watched a month ago, it talks about the geography ofcourse, but also about diseases; wondered why so many diseases came out of africa, languages and a huge amount of ethnic groups, and how all of this have made development in africa extremely hard. I recommend everyone watch it, it is so instructive. Have you seen it as well @Leo Gura
