  1. I don't have much experience with working but I have an idea. But I am just theorising. Perhaps you could have a skill based day job, i.e. cybersecurity, which allows you to get better and better at it. Yes, it will lack because it is not your passion. However, it will be a job that lets you develop in skill and I believe some fulfilment comes from developing mastery in anything over time. This would beat out something like just working at a corner shop in many ways. Because at a corner shop you aren't really developing skills over time in the same way. Hope that can help out mate.
  2. I've heard that one of the key reasons for Israel's radical current politics is the nature of the coalition government. That Netanyahu's power relies on keeping a far right sector of the coalition satisfied, and that this moves his position much more to the right. I can't remember where I learnt this perspective but was curious if you agree with this.
  3. I haven't tried it myself. But Groundnews seems like a pretty cool idea to me
  4. There will be some understandable reason you feel this way. For example, maybe you are a highly sensitive person. Maybe you didn't get needs met as a kid, and you have emotional wounding that is getting triggered. Maybe you have a thyroid thing. Maybe you have trauma history which puts your body in chronic regulation. I would say though that there is a lot of cultural messaging around how family relationships should work. What we should or shouldn't feel. What is okay and not okay in family dynamics. And imo some of that messaging is toxic, and can make us feel like something wrong with us, when we are just having an understandable response to an unhealthy dynamic.
  5. @Zenterus How you deal with the stress of cold approach? That was one of my big sticking points. I could see myself progressing but my nervous system was totally haywrire from the stress.
  6. Where did I make the claim that they kill people? Edit: Oh i guess you mean the implication from the video title
  7. You make some insightful points but I think you downplay the severity of the threat he makes.
  8. Nice! I grew up in London, Uk. And I enjoyed going to restaurants run by people from different cultures too.
  9. Bro come on 😂 The bruddah said he was gonna chop his head off 😂 --- Fair point about the molesting dude though. Stage reds be everywhere. Instead, i'd argue there are numerous societies where the dominant culture is less developed than in western democracies, i.e. much more stage red, blue, purple etc. So, i'd argue that disproves your argument that other cultures are just as civilised.
  10. Its not only about racism, its also about reasonable fears about what type of characters share your community. I'm sure you will agree that it is very important how citizens are socialised from birth, i.e. what they are taught is right or wrong, whether to respect those different to oneself. The issue with immigration is you are letting people into your country who you haven't had a chance to mold into the type of citizen you want. And that opens up the risk of letting in poorly socialised people into your country and that causing problems.
  11. Most people too poor to care about this sort of thing. Raise standards of living and i think this issue will be helped more.
  12. I liked some aspects of her works particularly her view that mental health issues are really just adaptions. (Maybe she puts an exception too, not sure though)
  13. I lost my actualized.org premium plus subscription so i lost laughing privileges
