  1. Just seeking enlightenment, higher consciousness or seeking more love, unconditional love, is in itself very conditional love. But you won't say that about masturbation and youtube subscribers.
  2. Looking at the lives of successful people can contradict advice like this, you can point to hard work but that would be ignoring many other factors that made someone succeed, so it would be wrong assuming that the reason others don't succeed is because of not working hard enough. Do successful people fail? Not really, successful people can fail at a task but aren't failing and haven't failed in the sense that they're losers or struggled as failures for a longer amount of time, have bad genetics etc.
  3. Low IQ is an advantage
  4. That's a bad comparison because in ancient rome the people above the slaves still had to work.
  5. You keep relying on saying "I'm repeating myself" but the solution you proposed would still have you struggling for survival, just in a different way. If you really believed that doing it the modern way is stupid then you'd say life in the wilderness is preferable, but it's not, we're not just doing things in a "more complicated way" were doing it in a way where you don't have to risk your life to survive. The 2 reasons I gave weren't an exhaustive list of what makes life now less hierarchical (if your boss can't kill you, that means less hierarchy, this is obvious) than 4 thousand years ago. If you re-read my solution you'll see I wasn't saying it will break the whole cycle of hierarchy.
  6. He also told Trump to not do vaccine quality testing because that would be a "bad thing".
  7. You have more options today and aren't someone's property, even tho there is obvious inequality. It's not unreasonable at all to say that we could get more people to question hierarchies which are unjust and so the delusion hasn't gone too far, like you've claimed. If you don't believe there are solutions then what about the solution I proposed above? You said rebelling against an unjust hierarchy won't lead to a more just one with less suffering, but that's just not true if we're evolving and questioning it.
  8. People do want to question it, because there's enough of a motivation to do that due to the points above and you can cling to hierarchy but if you look at evolution you'll see it's been heading towards more equality. I was not saying to get rid of hierarchy, but to get rid of some and keep but change some, which would get around the drawback of having to detox on a collective level and go with the more extreme solution you're proposing. Also you must have miss-typed because you said questioning structures to death, won't get us to question structures to death. You didn't elaborate on what you mean by a more individualized and sophisticated system (that leads to less fulfillment of desires like money, caused by rebelling against hierarchy) but unjust hierarchies are actually not advantaged, a more flexible and open minded system (in a company for example) can out compete one that is too greedy or hierarchical and so lead to more money than otherwise. There are natural hierarchies but what I'm talking about is man-made ones, which are irrationally putting lower IQ people at the top.
  9. The problem is that people defending hierarchy are more specifically: - simply defending abusive bosses or abusive people who are higher up in a hierarchy in general - denying how much hierarchies have put the most sadistic, unwise, tyrannical people at the top - denying that the motivation within hierarchy is wanting control over another person's life or power (there are other motivations obviously) - denying that what leads to climbing a hierarchy isn't a quality that they find desireable, like being conformist That would contradict being that enlightened Also people being forced to submit to hierarchy is a big reason as well The solution you're proposing isn't realistic nor would be progress, it would bring us back to an earlier time But here is a solution: encourage more people to rebel against unjust hierarchies and question them instead of conforming to them, because those conforming are also crucial to keeping it going. Elect good leaders that will change things and make progress when it comes to reducing abuse of power.
  10. What type of meditation is this? Also what are the results?
  11. https://www.reddit.com/user/angry_liberal
  12. Well that job is already being done by Trump supporting NPCs, of which you'll find many on youtube and twitter, strawmanning and hating progressives... why do you feel the need to defend Trump but not immigrants?
  13. 1. You need looks, your hair needs to make your face look better by emphasizing good features, find a haircut that makes the rest of your face be perceived differently, in a better light. Your eye area is important, deep set eyes are a disadvantage unless the rest of your face is above average and you can't look too aggressive nor like you're a beta. Clear skin. Not bloated. You also obviously need good bone structure. Normal nose. 2. You need status, you can't be known as the guy who is shy, hated, has a bad personality etc. (status is gained through looks and being a normie) 3. Good grades in math, physics etc. because you'll be unattractive to a girl if you have worse grades than her, also nothing that would make you less attractive like norm breaking Here are some disadvantages: wide hips, balding, overbite or underbite, bad teeth, too high bodyfat, a bad voice, hair sticking up, too short or too tall
  14. That is more awake and honest than leaving it ambiguous if someone is awake or not when that person's teachings show they aren't, true skepticism doesn't mean you're giving too much leniency to someone when their teachings don't show that they're awake
  15. Practice more, and that's not that much of a social skills problem
  16. Are you socially awkward? Is your face just average without the dot scars?
  17. The things listed were also difficult questions in their time, so it's better to see who the best and most benevolent candidate is instead of being against them because of the details.
  18. Don't expect much from this forum A mod is allowed to screenshot anything and say it, then I am banned for doing it by someone who is triggered by a 3 day old debate Leo and mods here will keep clinging to this tho
  19. Pickup looks dishonest and see-through from a third party perspective
  20. You're talking about a long term relationship, guys who are attractive enough for a short term relationship aren't being tested and are attracting girls through looks etc.
  21. Standing out in a way that reduces your status is unattractive, like for example a trait that isn't bad but is considered bad by a community will reduce your status . Yes, so money can attract them to a relationship with you, while status and looks are more inherent
  22. I'd say simply no, maybe in some places but girls don't want their boyfriend standing out, in a good way yes but not if you're not conforming which would reduce your status Yes, you're more attractive if you're naturally succeeding, not struggling, this is what chads do Your money isn't attractive, the status that comes with it is, but otherwise that would just mean they want your resources and not you, which doesn't make you more attractive
  23. What are you going to start with, a manga? A stage yellow and above fictional universe will definitely work and would appeal to the lower stages too, it's what manga needs.
