In first place, we have, the one and only, ho(no)rable Emperor Donald Trump, King of the Universe! In second place, we have Alexander the Great. -

I hope we don't stop having children! The world needs consciously parented children who can go on to create a world that's really worth living in. Imagine the kind of life you'd have had if your parents taught you consciousness work. They taught you how to face your fears, what Truth is, how money actually works, how to have good relationships, about life purpose, etc. Conscious people have the opportunity of having children and providing this kind of an amazing childhood to them. -

@Jennjenn Collective survival is brutally vicious. When we try to understand why there's conflict out there, the only way to really do that is to own the conflict inside ourselves. The only real way to resolve what's happening out there is to resolve it within ourselves. Right now, the world is in a state of battle. It's gonna intensify. We haven't really started the blame game of who is responsible for the covid outbreak. The world will start pointing fingers at China. This could potentially lead to a dangerous war. No kidding. The fact that Trump can fire a nuclear weapon whenever he wants doesn't help. I'm not saying it will happen, but the possibility is absolutely in the air. -

Lol!! Nice attempt to put it in a nice little nutshell. As far as his 'crooked endeavors' go, Leo is a political cult! Cult! CULT!!! 'LEO DEBUNKED!!!' If you're being serious, my take is that you're over-over-over-simplifying it. -

Your intuition is the most unbiased arbiter of truth. Not your beliefs or worldview, your intuition. -

If you can be insensitive, I can too. Welcome to the insensitivity Olympics. My point is that you can't get away so easily with being an insensitive prick to male rape victims. -

Ikr!!! I'm waiting to see how down and dirty he's willing to get to rationalize what he said. -
Parththakkar12 replied to iceprincess's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
How about we say the same to female rape victims? Equality bruh. -
Parththakkar12 replied to iceprincess's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Why can't we say the same for women who get raped? Equality bruh. -

When their predictions go wrong, you gotta doubt their expertise now, don't you? That's when you say 'Okay, clearly something is up. I gotta stop blindly believing them, use my own brain and figure out wtf is going on.' -

Show me the full interview. I'll believe you. -

For sure it isn't. The morality can get archaic and barbaric though. For example, today's conservatives believe very strongly in building the American military, like it's a good thing. This wasn't the case when America was gaining independence. Then, building an army of the United States was the progressive thing to do. The conservative thing was to reserve the autonomy of states and keep them separate. I can imagine all states being scared of losing their autonomy to the whole. It was a progressive step to build a US army then and it is a progressive step to cut funding from the US army today. But the morality changed. -

Makes sense. You do want to have a policing system that punishes behavior that's unacceptable. I don't particularly have an issue if you want to do this. I personally don't want to do the shaming and ridiculing thing. That's my personal preference. The reason is as follows: today's progressive is tomorrow's conservative. So, if I get attached to the morality of today's progressivism, it will become archaic and barbaric tomorrow. Then, I'll be the conservative one defending the old morality and I'll be the one facing the music! As depressing as it sounds, we will see this effect happen. There definitely is a place in the movement for people who believe in the progressive morality. Nothing against them. As long as they aren't being the useful idiots of people whose intentions they don't know, should be fine! -

Are you sure this won't come back to bite you in the ass? It doesn't feel like a conscious strategy that maximises consciousness and love. I have a feeling that the election of Trump is a result of the failure of a shaming and marginalisation strategy on the part of progressives. This will cause them to contract into their perspective and get defensive. There will be surface-level political correctness, but there won't be a deep sense of belief in your vision for the future. Will this be good for your cause long-term? I'm aware that most progressives will disagree with me on this issue. Only time will show the results of the different strategies! -

If they have power, it's because people are listening to them. That's because they look like whiners to Green, but really they have the power of the homeostasis of the status-quo with them. That's where their power lies in fact, in guarding the status-quo. Their power also lies in the fact that they understand their audience better than you, that's why they're getting the attention you aren't. As progressives who care about creating the change we want, we have one option, that is to compete with these powerful conservatives and beat them at their own game. That means competing for their audience and selling them a progressive ideology that really gives them hope for the future. For this we'll have to understand the psychology and ego-needs of their audience and figure out a better way to cater to them than the current ones. If they have a positive motivation to get on board, this will beat the negative, fear-based motivations that conservatives are playing off of. This is where stopping the demonization comes in. We need to understand that the audience of these poweful conservatives is giving them the power, which means the audience has its own power. We need to have respect for this power, cease to demonize them and actually care about them. Then you come up with progressive ideas to help them. When the public happily gets on board with what you're selling them, powerful shifts can happen! -

Oh yeah for sure. I'm not advocating for 100% voluntary compliance. There's gonna be conservatives who will conform to whatever is there. Yeah they'll whine and complain, but no big deal. If you ask them whether it's voluntary compliance, they'll say no. But, because they're unaware of how they're programmed to comply with authority, they won't see how it is in fact voluntary. Whiners and complainers on either side don't count. Those perspectives are passive and powerless anyways and will not really give you insight on what to do, or they won't really be able to resist. The real resistance you'll face is from people who know what they're talking about and have good reasons to resist you. That's when you'll fail to create the change you want. That's when you'll need to either increase your level of empowerment, or you'll have to get them on board and sell them the change. If you're successful in creating the change you want, that's indication enough that it's right for society. -

Good one. I'll be back with the quote. -

No conspiracy theories. Let's respect Leo's forum. Observing who benefits from saying what isn't a conspiracy theory, it's seeing things for what they are. Let's not make conspiratorial claims, instead let's do an honest enquiry. -

Selling vaccines and immunisation certificates that prohibit you from doing anything if yo aren't vaccinated. That's his plan, by his own admission. Don't deny that. -

Will he profit from this or not? Yes or no? -
Parththakkar12 replied to annonnimm32's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
If you were in his shoes, yes you'd be ecstatic. How do you know what he wants and doesn't want? As far as me being a conspiracy theorist goes, show me where I made a conspiratorial claim. Quote the post. -

So the most conscious positions are the ones in which you're mentally enslaved to what they say you should do? Mental enslavement isn't very conscious in my book. Again, no whining, you can choose to stop doing that whenever you want. He stands to benefit from this. No conspiratorial claims, just an observation that he stands to benefit. -

@Extreme Z7 LOL. Do you really think they wouldn't do the work to dissect that stuff if their livelihood depended on it?
