  1. @spiritual memes I agree with you on 'I'm more awakened than you' rhetoric. I don't really like it either, and find it frustrating and irritating/ cringe. Regarding the tone, I actually quite like the tone. I think when done well its raw, gritty, provocative and cuts through to listeners. Also, this type of tone reminds me of a lot of RSD instructors, and I think its very effective at resonating with people who feel disenfranchised. I think lighter, more friendly communications style don't really get through as well to those sorts of folks imo.
  2. @spiritual memes How would you like to see Leo change his image?
  3. @Leo Gura Ye dude I've noticed you put out warnings quite frequently. This youtube dude is the equivalent of a tabloid newspaper imo. I agree with the comments he makes about being kind of heartless in some of the comments towards the suicidal people but not the rest of the vid.
  4. @spiritual memes I get what you're saying dude but I think that the way Leo teaches is very valuable as it is. His present style will inevitably push away a lot of folks but I think also changing the style would also push away a lot of folks.
  5. @onacloudynight Hey Sounds to me like it might be OCD.
  6. @Leo Gura Ye i agree with starstruck. I'd demote some of these mods. This is all just gonna go in circles until you get effective modding going imo. I'd be prepared to mod, I think I'd bring in some value in doing so.
  7. @UpperMaster I'd get them to do shadow work first. If you look into the work of psychotherapists like Otto Kernberg and Frank Yeomans it is possible. I just imagine it must be a massive ball ache to try and do. If he has NPD, which I think is certainly a possibility, the issue is that the NPD psyche maintains a grandiose narrative as a defence mechanism against underlying feelings of pervasive shame. Kerneberg argues that this underlying psychic structure resembles BPD. Therapy requires unwiring this narrative and exposing the conscious mind to this underlying structure, which the psyche will greatly resist. The NPD mind functions very differently from the healthy mind, as it is very developmentally stunted.
  8. @mr_engineer Dude remember this is just one person's/ group's view of things. Various 'sjw' groups will disagree with each other. And some will likely come across as much more reasonable to you than others. Here's a discussion you may find more reasonable:
  9. @asifarahim Could Leo's conception not be compatible with a sufi conception of god?
  10. @asifarahim What's your belief with regards to Allah?
  11. @asifarahim @Raptorsin7 What do you guys see as being of particular value in Islam?
  12. @onacloudynight I empathise with your desire dude. I think the conscious thing to do is to be above board with this, and talk to her authentically about this and make suggestions. It might just be that she is not emotionally mature enough to leave a seemingly unhealthy dynamic with her father at present. And if that dynamic is a deal breaker for you, then you guys aren't compatible atm imo.
  13. @Carl-Richard lmao! I asked it the exact same thing yesterday. But it told me it couldn't do it. Maybe its about how the question is worded.
  14. These Tate stans would win gold in a mental gymnastics tournament.
  15. @EmJay For Leo, I'd start with this: https://www.actualized.org/start
  16. @trenton Imo, there are unreasonable people on all sides of the political spectrum. There are some very reasonable woke style people out there too. Its its healthier variety, 'woke' is just about treating all groups with a baseline level of human decency, which requires making sure that society and culture is arranged to not just cater for dominant groups but also traditionally marginalised groups, i.e. blacks, transgenders.
  17. @Rafael Thundercat Same dude! I find it kind of surreal
  18. @Spooney Spoonerson Brother appreciate that you have only said positive things about this public figure. Are there no negatives you can see with him? Imo, we are all a mixture of positive and negative traits, just to varying degrees.
  19. @Thought Art Aww poor site. I don't understand what you mean by 'what is actuality'
