That’s just, like...your opinion, man. I’ve had this internal struggle myself where I am demonstrably more self-aware, less destructive, and live a simpler life than many people around me. If I point this out to them and give myself an appearance of superiority, would that be helpful in any way? I doubt it. But it’s hard to resist sometimes. It’s just ego trying to hijack the concept of consciousness for its own gain.

Ground News has news stories from sources across the spectrum, so you can read about it from different points of view.

All you’ve done is speak from your direct experience. No shame in that, and no need to apologize.

Beautiful, thank you for sharing!

“When I was manipulating stock value my way and the market behaved the way I want, everything was fine! Then this guy and his social media buddies manipulated the value in a different way that cost me a fortune! I demand they pay me my fortune back!” cheesy and whiny

Bliss is just a feeling. A fantastic example of impermanence. Truth doesn’t care about your feelings.

An envelope with powder, what could go wrong?! Just be sure to use Trump’s Florida residence for the return address.

Yeah, I’m interested to see what the judges consider to be a good answer.

Congratulations on seeing your own way out of such a negative worldview! I bet it wasn’t easy.

@Nahm Nice one!

Chances are looking pretty good for a President Kamala Harris next election cycle!

Let go of the cause of the suffering.

I’m skeptical that the universe expands by over 500,000 km in the same amount of time it takes light to travel 75,000 km. It’s an awesome video, though!

I’m not worried about Trump winning again, I’m worried about his ability to run at all. It validates the coup attempt and conspiracies of voter fraud against him. It’s just where we are as a country. It worries me.

Thus spoke Bazooka Jesus. Praise be!

Sounds like a belief with a lot of rationalizations. A Creation Story with a standing-on-the-shoulders-of-intellectual-giants flavor to it. It’s interesting!

Isn’t this the basic premise behind MGTOW?

Being is a choice? Could God choose to not be? somethingsomethingHamlet

Drop ego.

Agreed. It’s not for lack of knowing, only lack of open-mindedness.

That lets you know the scope of reality. Our Hubble Telescope (soon to be James Webb telescope) is our ability to be self-aware. It’s only looking into things as they were, not as they are. Who knows how things are?

Aren’t hedge fund managers professional day traders anyway?

Exactly. If you’re ignorant, you can learn new things. If you think you know already, you resist learning.
