I’ve spent years studying Trump, and it still amazes me how he has managed to maintain such a dedicated base of supporters. He’s been convicted of 34 felony charges, was impeached twice (without conviction), incited a riot at the Capitol, has numerous sexual assault allegations, was involved in the Trump University scam, had connections with Jeffrey Epstein, declared bankruptcy multiple times despite inheriting significant wealth, has a record of dishonesty, clearly uneducated, and exhibits classic traits of narcissism. The evidence is overwhelming—there are countless articles, books, documentaries, and documents that detail his actions and behavior in depth. Yet, his supporters remain loyal. It’s hard for me to comprehend why. The only explanation that makes sense to me is that his supporters are operating at a lower level of consciousness. As the election date approaches, I’m feeling a growing sense of stress and frustration. What do you think keeps Trump's supporters so loyal, despite all the evidence against him? 

I think he expresses exactly the worldview that is also being held by people like Epstein: There is no value except pure power. Either youre an predator or youre prey. Caring about morality is like caring about a fairy-tale and youre depraved acts of sexual-abuse also work as affirmation of that. And in a sense it is the most fucked-up mutation of postmodernism.

PHP is where real web dev is at.

The language I use does not require people to read obtuse academic philosophy. That's part of the value I offer. Usually to get the kind of intellectual depth my videos offer would require reading very heavy, elitist academic tomes. I make very deep things accessible to normies.

You have to be blind and soulless to have all of today's tools available to you and not see anything beautiful worth creating.
Mankind are asleep zombies starving for leadership, Truth, Love, God. And you see no way of leading them? Really??
There is a severe deficit of vision and passion here.

The principles of attraction work regardless of where or when.
Any girl I talk to, anywhere on Earth, will like me more thanks to the skills pickup has taught me. Your mom will like me more.
Pickup is not just going to clubs or approaching lots of girls. It is an internalized model of how women work and the skills to handle them. It's also a lot of inner game stuff.

I know all those positions and they are garbage. Not worth discussing.
All of analytical philosophy is nonsense.

Salmom roe is great but expensive.

Except personality type does not capture other crucial aspects of this work like the tendency for effortless mystical experience or baseline state of consciousness. These factors are far more important than personality.
Someone like a Jesus didn't get there through personality but mystical experience.
Personality may be a red herring.

If you are playing chess at 2000+, you are basically within the realm of mastery already.
Don't confuse mastery with being the best in the world. That's a whole nother level which requires insane training and even right genetics.
I did not promise you that you will be best in the world.

Hikaru is not merely a master, he is worldclass. And he does a lot of cheap, quick, dirty, online games. These are hardly proper chess games. These are not serious classical games with careful attention to detail. And he acheived mastery before he even started playing online.
How many classical offline games has Hikaru played to achieve GM? That's a better measure.

Yeah, cause it's a forum about development and spirituality.
Running around having sex is not serious behavior. It is the same problem as gluttony.
Lust is a sin for good reason.

Plenty of people enter the porn industry because it suits them and pays well. That is their choice. They want the easy money and they get it.

Dude, most of the stuff you buy is made with slave labor. Porn is no different than the shoes you buy.

Yes, this is basically the solution.
This doesn't mean you don't have sex with real people. You still can and should. But it's not essential. It's a bonus when it is available, but you're not going to chase after it desperately.
Masturbation can be more satisfying than real sex. It often is, as long as you have the proper mindset. But if you buy into the mindset that masturbation is always inferior to sex, that's the key mistake.

@enzyme It happens.
Willingness to approach is highly dependent on state and unconscious social calculus. Don’t make it too personal.

He can say those words but those are not the values running Grok.

Ralston is autistic. Lol

It's like math. You have a certain baseline level of raw genetic math ability, but you can also do a lot of work to master math. Without lots of practice you will not understand math. But if you are mentally retarded no amount of work will be enough to be good at math. Some people are just better at math than others. But everyone requires work to become great at math.

No. Look at David Duchovney. He was a famous sex addict who had a miserable life.

Yes.
All finite things are infinite. They are sub-infinities.
Every part of Infinity is infinite. Every finite thing is a sub-infinity of Infinity.
Infinity is made of infinite sub-infinities. Analogous to how there are infinite numbers, but if you take the numbers between 1 and 2, there are infinite of them too.
Infinity is infinitely sub-divisible.
Yes, relationships are like money. When you don't have it, it seems like the solution to all your problems, but after you have a bunch of it, you realize most of your problems still remain. In that sense it is very illusory.

She's not going to be available at your beck and call because she has her own life to lead. She's not your personal sex object. So she will only give you sex when she is logistically available and in the mood. Which is not going to be on your schedule and needs. And the quality of the sex can vary a lot, depends on her and depends on what you're into and what you need to be satisfied.
Generally speaking, the longer your relationship goes on, the more pragmatic realities of life will override passion. You will start to do things for convenience and pragmatics more than for the passion, and so will she. That's why marriages often become sexless. The passion wanes and pragmatics takes over.
There will be plenty of times where you want sex but she doesn't or she's busy, which is going to frustrate you.

He abuses women.
Yes, if you turn women into sex slaves for yourself, then you don't need to worry about sexual frustration. That's why sexual slavery and abuse exists.
And yes, if you are a world-famous celebrity, women will swarm around you and you are free to abuse them.
Also, you should consider how sexually frustrated Andrew Tate was in prison. Abusing women isn't free. It has a cost.

I've done it a lot.
It only works if you are seriously disconnected from society and social life. Not ideal.

Yes, that's the key: selfishness is so radical.
It's important that you realize that.
Not everything, but 99% of what you do is.
It would Being.
A rock is perfectly selfless.
A living organism cannot be selfless without dying.
But there is an even higher truth: selfishess IS selflessless and Love!
But realize what that means: rape and torture is Love. Hard for a self to accept that, especially when it is happening to you.
That's the rub, all lines you draw are arbitrary and selfish.
YES!
YES!
Now you got it.
All language and thought collapses into silent nonduality.
When everything is ONE, everything is understood and nothing more can be said or asked about it.
The mind is creating all these divisions and perplexities, getting in its own way. The mind cannot ever grasp ONEness. By grasping it, it makes one into two.
