Conspiracy theories can be largely dismissed because they have proven to be bullshit time and time again, and garner little meaningful public attention as a result. Let's consider for a moment that they WERE true just for the fun of it, what would people do then? Absolutely nothing, they'll just keep sitting around bitching. They are driven by hate, fear, and paranoia. Negative things that you should avoid wasting your time around, there is nothing to be gained. That's why Leo is so dismissive of them, and you should be too. You need to shed that stuff or it will weigh you down in the pursuit of the larger picture of consciousness/happiness. There is not enough time in life for both. LOL "when your rights have been taken away and you're in a totalitarian regime." Is it not perfectly obvious that nobody is in control of anything? People are more free now on average than they have ever been in human history, of course there are bad spots and exceptions, but to be focused on those is to be lost in semantics.

You're probably not as developed as you think you are. Relax cowboy and enjoy human connection in all forms!

How absolute are we talking here? This seems like it could be a trust thing that they're worried you're insecure or think you're malicious or something. Like my girlfriend tells me pretty much everything she's going to be doing, or lets me know. But I don't expect her to tell me every single time she's going out or doing whatever. She's an adult and can take care of herself, I trust her that she'll be fine and shoot me a text later or what not.

@tatsumaru You're asking that question with an internal assumption and you don't even know it! You're subconsciously implying to yourself that the point of doing things is to reach perfection, and the alternative points are less desirable. The problem is the perfection your mind is projecting out in the world and the perfection of the way things are couldn't be more two opposite things. One is utterly selfish and the other is completely selfless and indifferent. Reflect on this truth, seriously. -
The same amount she expects from you. Huge red flag. It's basically neon lighting on her forehead that's saying, "I'm using you as a crutch, but you're not aloud to lean on me." Everything the women expects. They want equality, well that means exactly what the word means. If you truly love each other, then being there for each other through the hard times and good times. Anything less than that is probably a good indicator someone is just bullshitting and is trying to selfishly extract something. That's why my girlfriend and I are so damn successful relationship wise. We get it and built that foundation loud and clear early. If we don't show up for each other when it matters then what's the fucking point of being in a relationship?

Nuclear is irrelevant to talk about, because it's the end of the world. In a conventional war China would lose hilariously, they can't match the US fleet let alone rest of NATO, nor can they project power outside their borders that far or for that long, plus they are behind in technology. They are Paper Tiger, Hidden Communist. And because this is the real world and we can't fight in a vacuum it would be China vs all of NATO. These 1v1 mental masturbation talks are just immature and pointless. Also it's irrelevant anyways as well because the Chinese people don't hate the US/Westerners nearly as much as is portrayed. They are mostly just regular people like you and me, and just want to live normal, safe lives. They don't care for international politics bullshit or war. You just get fed a different message because things are twisted by the corrupt CCP and biased and untrustworthy Western news sources.

RIP. Was a pleasure mate!

Ahh I see it now, it's all come together.

If one is enlightened and has reached such a state of maturity why would they bother or be temped to go after shallow/vain pretty girls? I know there are "no rules" and everyone can do what they want, but it's still kind of in-congruent and dishonest.

Murder is great if you're the murderer and you benefit from killing someone! Murder sucks quite a bit if you're the one getting killed. It's relative! Right and wrong are simply from whatever perspective you currently occupy.

In an attempt to imitate most modern online political memers that take themselves way too seriously, I will viciously defend and espouse all my positions as perfectly absolute and morally righteous. Also when confronted in any meaningful or direct way I will be extremely vague and avoidant with my answers, providing no more evidence or facts than rapidly searched google results from the first page. I will do my best attempt of maliciously and secretly trying to score points with my audience while shaming the other one, sacrificing all nuance and logic necessary in this process. I promise I will also grind up anything I have left with semblance of a spine into a fine powder which I will then snort off the ass of my patreon supporters. Thank you and let the master(DEBATE) begin!

Did the other one as well;

lol scared of results from an online test? I guess it could matter depending on the country you're in, someone may be watching

For example I'm taking the 8Values quiz right now and there is question that can go both ways because it is worded too ambiguously; "The sacrifice of some civil liberties is necessary to protect us from acts of terrorism." So when it says "is necessary" you would imagine you might have to answer one way, because it's a technical truth that yes individual liberties like privacy are infringed to protect us from terrorism right now, with the current technology we have. But you could take it as a values statement as well and say, "No it's not necessary, because they need to do better and find out ways to protect us without infringing our liberties." However even THAT response could be taken as a position of a liberal OR conservative. It's these kind of questions that need to be shored up on these tests. Maybe I expect too much. Anyways ended up where I thought I would (except I feel I'm more Market economic than it says);
-
LMAO come at me Stalin wanna-bes. I'm not sure but there were a few questions that the answer seemed intuitive on for most people to answer a certain way, but the way they were worded seemed to corner you a bit. I'm not even sure what the word means because it's thrown around so liberally these days. My basic understanding is isn't Fascism just an idea that supports a powerful government that is strict and tyrannical (in various degrees) in accomplishing it's goals? Regardless of if the goals are liberal or conservative leaning? Anyways here we go;

What did Winston Churchill say about Democracy again? Oh yeah; "Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government, except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.…" Nothing more need be said on the topic............ except this other great quote I just found hah; "At the bottom of all the tributes paid to democracy is the little man, walking into the little booth, with a little pencil, making a little cross, on a little bit of paper—no amount of rhetoric or voluminous discussion can possibly diminish the overwhelming importance of that point."

This is a nice meme, but there is a comfortable amount of money to be made in stoking fear and hate. Always has been. The funny thing is the channels like those of Stephen Molyneux and Sargon of Akkad use to be at the forefront of left-liberal community sphere like 6-8 years ago LOL. How quickly things change.
-
Are you sure about that? What you think looks good and what girls think looks good are two totally different things. Consider getting some help from female friends or family, or spending some money hiring a dating coach or professional stylist/photographer.

This is a very interesting observation. Nice post @electroBeam

My penis is small and every sexual encounter I have is monumentally disappointing. Good luck.

Don't you live in China? This would be a real good way to get executed, if you're into that kinda thing... -

I managed to brute force my through it mostly and out-think it, and not have to go on any sort of medication. Still comes and goes in waves but it's definitely not as debilitating as it was when I was younger. It'll probably stay with me for the rest of my life so it's just a matter of managing it. Now I rather just feel annoyed by it, I don't really dwell on negative emotions or resent about it. -

I did Salvia once when I was 18 which was a rather interesting but largely neutral experience, because I was atheist then and just did it out of curiosity and for fun with a friend. Other than that only marijuana and alcohol drug wise. It's funny because back then I planned on doing a lot of psychedelics when I was this age I am at right now (27), but now that I am here I still feel I am not ready or the person I imagined I'd be back then. I still have some struggles with depression and other things that are making me quite fearful about getting serious about psychedelics. I feel like I need to accomplish some more practical things for myself before I delve into that. Life is a long time though so I'm just going to go at my pace and when I'm ready I'll know it. I definitely do want to have an ayahuasca ceremony at some point in my life, as well as a classic shrooms and LSD trip. -
Re-frame so you think of rejection as a simple mismatch, rather than a result of "deficiencies". So if something doesn't work out you don't automatically have a negative connotation and emotion about it. Instead you just accept it and think, "Ok, it just wasn't meant to happen."

Was initially to solve my depression and other neurosis, but has also partly been because of an internal intuitive force (my soul?) telling me that there was definitely something more to the world and to existence than what my previous atheistic/materialist mindset was giving me. I basically realized one day, "Ok. All this science is nice but it can't possibly be it. This is not satisfying enough." Saw those limits and starting looking for other things. It's funny because some years ago way before I knew about Actualized.Org, or listened to Leo, or practiced any spiritually, I was pondering to myself what would make the most sense to explain reality, and I came to the conclusion that the universe simply is itself, and that it was it's own God. With no beginning or end, just constant change. It felt kind of gratifying to be told basically the same conclusion from Leo but still I'll have to verify it for myself experientially. It has only been an intellectual understanding thus far.
