And this is what knowledge hoarding does to you, makes you a bit judgemental to others There's not just two ends of the spectrum, but a middle section and degrees going towards either ends. There's not just binary thinking of good vs bad, right vs wrong, humanity should this, humanity shouldn't that, but there's a lot of complexity and nuance to consider. That's why NLP, Spiral dynamics series, Ego development modal, developmental psychology and Carl Jung's archetypes exist, to name a few.

@Preety_India Another way I'd put it, is that Richard Dawkins has integrity, and may have intellectual integrity too. He is atheistic and a rational thinker to the bone, and has a bias for scientific knowledge. Despite having a value system he believes in, a cognitive, moral, state and personality type that suits his worldview, with the life experiences he has so far, he is what is is and doesn't deviate too far.

@Opo Because he couldn't survive handling Mr. Girl, his Libertarian socialist views are too limiting, and he one time, debating some other streamer, argued a point for CP commercial availability as an example against Capitalism which was a bad example. Don't get me started on Hasan.

Destiny doing a nice job exposing Hasan's weaknesses, not just in handling arguments, but actually how his empathy contracted when debating on transphobia. Given how the framing of the debate is, and who he's talking to, it's not surprising the discussion is low quality, but it's surprising how triggered he got. Both Hasan and Vaush are definitely now suspect, they are no longer good examples of stage green:

@Carl-Richard In that case, he can shows us his take on those criticisms then.

Update: I've done some deep level mediation, and managed to enter into a space where both of us are used to going, and we made some interesting objects out of greenery. The difference here is that I've listened to some binaural beats with gamma frequency, which put my state much deeper. I'm also made some improvements on our ability to switch places, where I would inhabit either her wonder land, or mine, and she would inhabit, and I don't know how to put this or word this in any other way that won't confuse this with another paranormal phenomena, so I'll just plainly say it, that she can to some degree inhabit my body and sort of experience the world through me. There are some nice discoveries I've made with this technique, and one of them, was that I'm understanding much more about her view, and what she finds passionate about, and more importantly, what she's really good at. The times when we would swap, she would go to the garden and start doing various humming noises, and singing sounds. She sometimes, with some help from me, go access the internet and look at various exercises for singing and voice work. What even more crazy, was she showed me how to do female voices, and pointed out exactly where I'm making mistakes in my throat and mouth, that added unnecessary strain. It's very interesting to have found this, although to a smaller extent I can control my throat and mouth, so it may be a latent ability that I didn't really bother exercising much. However, it's nice to know a bit more about her, meanwhile I also know a bit about me, and training in my new skills and hobby.

Just DM Leo with your idea. Or, create a thread and openly discuss with others how you would improve, or run a website like Leo's. Also, no offense but it's funny you ask how to write a personal message to Leo, under a sub-forum where video suggestions are posted to Leo on what idea should Leo do a vid on.

@Scholar It's probably his bias that he's able to tolerate and be attracted to their views.

@Frosty97 Big mistake trying to persuade him. If he doesn't want to, he doesn't want to. You have to willingly want to take psychedelics for personal development, getting manipulated into the decision, forced into it, can result in a very high chance of a bad trip, and your brother will forever blame you for putting him in such a psychotic state of being. It's not worth trying to get people and force them to do it.

@Opo He was a student of yoga, so why the need to protect his image? Out of fear? I don't care about if the debate between them happens, I'm more interested in their discussion, but if Dr. K keeps avoiding Mr. Girl's open invitation to a discussion, repeatedly, it would look bad but in a different way. I think he could handle his projections, and no doubt if this turned into a debate, Dr. K could handle himself that way, which might turn into like the Vaush and Mr. Girl debate. I think such a discussion between them would turn out quite deep.

Boredom is like laziness, depression, humiliation and lose of hope, this are emotions from within apathy. Arrogance, on the other hand, has much more in common with rage, annoyance, disgust and boasting, which is found in anger. Emotions related to apathy have this feeling of numbness and slowness to the emotions, while emotions of anger differ in lack of numbness, and being fast and feeling hot and tension. Thoughts that stem from boredom, and thoughts from arrogance are also different, as boredom puts one in a state of sluggishness, with thoughts that are not too empowering to the self and part of it's world, meanwhile arrogant thoughts empowers the one thinking like that, creating a sense of grandiose and self entitlement that can pull such a person out of a state of boredom.

@Hardkill Asymmetrical warfare, that's how you can contribute to the world and be a creator. Don't play fair with well established success giants. It doesn't have to be in anything in the political field, it can be outside of it in some other field. The key here, is being a creator and contributing to the world IN YOUR OWN WAY. Don't copy exactly what Elon Musk or Obama or whatever successful person did exactly, because that market is likely too saturated and competitive to be taken advantage of, and it won't work exactly as it did for it's time. Instead, you contribute through your life purpose, through understanding broadly and holistically, then niching down to a specific field that matches with your general purpose, specialized purpose, your field of mastery/skill development, your values, your strengths, your uniqueness. From that you provide immense value that is extremely difficult to copy. Of course, study what worked for them, but take those, and ask yourself, what would it look like if I combined this with that, while letting yourself be creative? Synthesizing ideas can create more value.

Definition and synonyms of boredom: boredom noun bore·dom | \ ˈbȯr-dəm \ Definition of boredom : the state of being weary and restless through lack of interestthe boredom of a long car trip Synonyms for boredom Synonyms blahs, doldrums, ennui, listlessness, restlessness, tedium, weariness If you have other definitions of boredom, feel free to share.

@Wijuu It would depend on that person's view of sex and sexuality, and at what stage values, cognition, moral frame work, personality type, state of consciousness and life experiences in specific (sexuality, intimate relationships, dating ect.) to other lines of development in one's life, which is also filtered through one's upbringing, culture, and repressed aspects of parts of one's psyche. Also, it depends on the body, and more importantly, what mind a person has. You can have a mind that's attention deficit disorder like, where focus is more scattered and wonders to a lot of topics and places, and have an episodic type of self image, with no consistent self image. Or you can have a mind which identifies strongly as one consistent entity.

These sound about right to me. I don't know how long the world would last if governments don't consider modifying lock down policies to lesser forms. The economy is gonna take a huge hit if we keep the same, hard lock down policies.

I predict Dr. k will avoid having a conversation with Mr. girl for a while, but eventually he will talk to him. I think while in the conversation, Dr. K will have a more defensive tone, not just because the guest in question is already has developed a reputation for being a bit suspect due to his misunderstood views on pedophilia, racism, and violence, but Mr. girl is gonna remind him of Reckful, which is likely to get Dr. K a bit defensive because it is likely a sensitive event for him. Now, to me, if Dr. K is a person of high integrity, he should accept the discussion, and manage himself with Mr. girl and show he can handle himself, because the less integrous thing to do, is to not do it because of fear and insecurity.

@Opo It's not like he should, but if he keeps avoiding talking to Mr. girl, it would also look suspicious on his side, despite interacting with Mr. girl, already a suspicious person as well from his way of speaking and being too honest and non partisan.

Just like the Vaush and Mr. girl discussion, the discussion between Mr. girl and dr. K might expose to us more of what Dr. K is really about, and wether or not he is trustworthy. Like Mr. girl, is the ultimate litmus test to a person's integrity whoever he talks to.

Is anyone here a straight A student before? I don't relate, so if someone here was a straight A student, could you please explain to me what that's like in your day to day, when grades were really important?

@Opo I think it might be interesting. Mr. girl said he's willing to not only talk, but press Dr. k on some of his takes. To me, both are similar in how they talk and think, but to me Mr. girl's upfront honesty an non-partisan way of communication would bring up a very interesting discussion.

Man, sometimes I feel like we must be as closely ruthless as the billionaires to tax them properly, and to not get too attached to paper money when trillionaires, billionaires, maybe millionaires wave you paper money to try to coerce and persuade to not get heavily taxed, in their view.

R.I.P. At least he's in a better place.

@MageTheOne Ah, another classic duality. Which came first: the creator, or the consumer? The value giver, or the value receiver? What fiction books are you reading at the moment? Which genre pulls you in strongly? How does your mind represent the immersion? How does the book effect your thinking, and emotional state? What stories do you write? Do you prefer pencil to paper, pen to paper, or typing using the computer? Have you also started stories (manuscripts, fanfiction ect.), but you tend to not complete them often? I don't find fiction books a waste of time, in fact I used to read them, and immerse myself deeply into the world and characters that sometimes I can roleplay as one, and feel what they're going through, and see from other perspectives. Usually from this state I sometimes have no choice but to write a story onto paper, otherwise my mind keeps spinning new ideas of how to mix this story with that story. It was a past hobby, and I sometimes took it serious that I would do research, look though many writer blogs, and learn hundreds of writing techniques, hundreds of ways to outline a story, plot and characters, that I ended up creating a very complex and detailed scripting/outline sheet that accounts for 95 % of the story, all key situations and character developments.

@Forza21 No, he literally mean YOU ARE GOD, but you magically forgot and bound yourself here as a human being, in a human story, in a finite world. On top of that, there's also infinity, or infinite intelligence/the GOD HEAD, operating behind the scenes if you will, which creates this author and co-author relationship between it and you, keeping reality as limited yet as fair as possible, while keeping the infinite imagination powers at check such that you don't screw billons of people in a blink of an eye, but too limiting either. That's how I intuit those two aspects to me. Anyways, another thread bites the dust.

Sounds about right. The quran is roughly one step forward to idealistic, but one step back to realism of it's time, because of it coming from a predominant stage purple/red culture and world, the spirituality it preaches has to be corrupted and coopted by the culture of it's time. It cannot go full on spirituality, without risking a huge backlash.
