@IAmReallyImportant Not completely true.

@zurew I'm one of those conservatives that is open minded. You are right a few do exist. However I think I'm done with interacting with you, so take care.

@bejapuskas What? I was giving a user who asked me to provide a negative example of many more examples of what is being asked. I'm not out right denying that LGBTQ people don't exist in such places, but that they must hide who they are in such places that still are authoritarian regimes that rule those places, and more less developed regions with less developed government that'll punish people with such sex orientations to preserve whatever stage blue/red values and morals of that society. If you want to debate me or have a heated discussion about this issue, I'm not interested, take it up with the user who asked me instead.

Why is this a high conscious resource? Has the standards of what is considered a high conscious resource gone down?

@vizual True in the forum, but 100% wrong in the real world.

Wait, I thought other minds don't exist?

@zurew A few places like the Middle east, with very strict traditional hierarchies and a few more.

@IAmReallyImportant This is partly true, given that the source video of the OP is a video about clips of public figures saying stuff about the no gay teaching bill. However, it's absolutely wrong to say that psychological developmental modals like Spiral dynamics, Integral Theory, Ego Development and Carl Jung's Collective shadows modal is bullshit. They do have a wide variety of ways of application, you just need to think bigger and more creatively to make those modals work!

And it's not like I don't have skin in the game, or rubber meets the word or whatever the hell the analogy is for having relevant and personal experiences. I'm partly gay or bisexual, and in my mother's side I have a gay uncle whose married to another man, so it's not like I'm purely abstract and philosophical in my talking. In the various schools I've gone to, primary to elementary in the UK, middle to high school in the USA at the Washington DC area, and high school to college in Quebec, Montreal, I've seen bullying that is sometimes related to gayness, fatness, shyness, and meekness and those who behaved in a weird way, and a few times am unlucky in this department. I'm not in favor of the bill, but I won't force a culture or society that's not ready to teach different sexualities to teach them, especially dealing with children to adolescents who are, typically in ego development, are impulsive and sometimes manipulative. How do you teach such a material to those who are rash and exhibit a bit of stage red values to stave blue values? How do you teach without being perceived as creepy in your behaviour? That's tricky.

@Knowledge Hoarder I agree and feel similar in regards to your view. I also feel like I don't know and uncertain with such a policy and applying it unilaterally, across states and countries and cultures because it absolutely depends on the stage, cognitiv, moral, collective being and shared livelihoods of the population, it's demographic, psychographic, history, narratives and political ideology of each culture. Places like in stage purple/red/blue societies lkke in the middle east and Russia, will be in favor of this bill, but places like Scandinavia and the UK will be in opposition to sucb a bill, due to other developments in each place.

@zurew Do you think we should teach attraction to schools as early as primary schools?

@Knowledge Hoarder Ok, should social programming be and allowed to pass a bill restricting certain sexuality ideas to be taught in schools as early as primary schools?

So back to topic: should Florida rightly ban homosexual ideas and theories in being taught in schools, as early as elementary school?

@zurew Attraction mainly comes from genetics, biology, brain wiring and body composition, but there are other ways as well.

@John Iverson Are you referring to visualizations and positive affirmations? If so, yes doing those practices can buildup skills over time. For example, shadow boxing helps build offensive and defensive skills, if your imagination and memory of seeing, hearing and feeling those movements are as close to actual reality as possible, meaning that you can get a more better punch or better at adjusting guards or slips or footwork, all in combination. I would refer this type of visualization and affirmations related to it as specific, simulation visualization, because you are mentally rehearsing an action. At fiest I was bad with shadow boxing because I'm less kinesthetic and more visual and auditory,but after some time of consistent practice, I can nap and spar with imaginary partners. Also, imagination of an ideal outcome or a big achievement can generate motivation, like seeing your ideal body after a workout. Or after visualizing writing a book, now see bigger and see yourself signing autographs at a library, with a line of people happy to see you. If I'm struggling with a specific technique in writing or drawing, I visualise doing the technique fully with my senses repeatedly, then practice a few times in the real world.

@Husseinisdoingfine It's a sick feeling to deal with, like knowing that somebody plagiarized your work. Keep working on that vision and find another angle if you're still into this field, or prepare for another career change.

This is amazing, I see potential in this helping nerve functionality and issues related to nerves.

I see it didn't take long for this thread to derail.

@Michael Jackson What do you mean? I see very few problems related to admin or the mods in general in this forum. Me and several others here were treated more fairly than any other forums out there.

@How to be wise From start to 56 seconds in is Joe Rogan saying his views and three edited cuts, I think this was a part of a long episode or multiple episodes. The rest were right wing media takes, one CNN take, and some random right leaning politician I think. In general, it's Joe's open-mindedness that gives him that stage yellow aspect. But certainly this edited and clips of videos, by TheDC Shorts makes him seem more right leaning than normal especially since this clips of Joe is followed by other right wing stuff. However, if you had children, I think the reaction is understandable.

@Preety_India If this was a bill that passed in some rural area, or a state were religious like education is had, and the country is more right leaning, technically that bill fits well with that kind of society, but in a more progressive dominant state it doesn't fit well, like in Scandinavian countries.

@Bobby_2021 Going off topic a bit, what's interesting is that it's possible to develop alter egos or other roles in your psyche that you can switch to other you basically. The main problem is that this was negatively developed and internalized enough that it's harder to unwire, and if those egos are sexual identities then it becomes tricky.

@Preety_India I'm more leaning in favor of the bill, if this bill fits in with that society. I'm also in favor of modifications to policies if needed, based on many other factors.

@Something Funny Because naturally the more confused you are, the greater the chances of putting yourself and others around you in danger, generally speaking. In this context of sexual confusion, I think it's less likely, but there's gonna be a lot of psychological stress I think. The only bad thing about sleeping with multiple sex partners, is that you don't exercise safe sex with them, which sex education prepares you a bit for, and other things as well. A different topic aside, on some days, I sometimes like to think that if society gave me either the tools to find my own life purpose, or knew my to an accurate degree my latent potential and or prepared me much more in getting life purpose, and I happen to have the skills and development for that purpose, it would've been so much easier. Sometimes while it's exciting to go and discover purpose, it can be stressful and give you more grey hair than a mediocre job can. It can be difficult.

@Preety_India There are a lot of reasons why. One I think is that children don't get shocked when they find out that other gender roles and sex orientations do exist, I think this is the main one, and there are other much deeper reasons as well. But it all depends on which society this bill is introduced in, their stage of development, cognitive and moral development, demographics and psychographics, common personality types, states of being at the collective level, and many other life experiences and infrastructures of that society. I guess ideology, narratives, history of that country/culture, economics, mainstream marketing, technology and many more societal factors. like I've stated this bill fits well with most Scandinavian countries, other European countries, and maybe with Canada and the USA. However, there's no such thing as a bill that'll make everybody happy.
