    He's screening his audience so only the most gullible will remain.

    Same as a Nigerian emails that have broken English, any sufficiently smart person will see the errors and ignore them, but the ones that respond have certain other predispositions that make them much easier to extort money from.

    But this is different we have proof right? His predictions came always true, right?

    @Yimpa Nice story. Did not expect that it is going to be wholesome. I was on the violent trip. Maybe slowly I will come to the more wholesome level. I might start with Priogo having superhero spiral dynamics powers and fighting agains the bald monk OEL. 

     

    Edit: I think I have to bring Dr. Strange in it. As the forum expects higher consciousness level. Nick Fuentes and Destiny are at it again it. So we might use Nick Fuentes as a nicer Joker figure who might turn to the weird joker.

    @HMD

    Let's say I want to look good and strong to be sexier for others. I go to the gym and create the habit. Later I might be able to concentrate into my inner world. Then I might stop going to the gym and just do healthy exercises at home. So I used the survival mechanism to adjust my priorities. 

    Me going to the gmy might have been very important to create the habit and learn the specifics in order to be able to use it at home.

    So it can be a good thing to look for outside validation as a first step.

    ^ right on! do your science but also notice the limits of academia and how your field has an effect (pos/neg) on different aspects of your life. then develop some original perspective on the matter (how the social system can be improved, what your field overlooks, new syntheses, etc.). that's basically what I've done. 

    @Epikur ya that's somewhat the idea for the next few years. my field is cool because companies fly you to their mines all over the world, so I intend to work in Australia by late 2024 and visit southeast Asian countries to do more seduction, exploring, etc. 

    Sounds good. I imagined that I would have liked to be a scientist but I am only a fanboy now. If had more brain and money I would have done Astronomy. 

    Btw:

    I feel like when I talk to a guy I tend to get significantly better responses than when I talk to women, even when they're both platonic 

    With men, I feel like there's usually a comrodarie I feel. Conversations are nice, fluid, sometimes they'll even carry the conversation 

    But with women - they dont try simalarily. If i dont put decent effort, I don't get that same response. 

    Is it because I'm a man and they're intimidated? I don't get it. I feel like I have to almost prove myself first. It's weird 

    Does anyone else experience this? 

    Seems like you are new to the party

    Orion Taraban is a psychologist who talks about men’s mental health and relationships. Orion has a YouTube channel called PsycHacks, where he posts short and interesting videos on topics like dating, success, self-improvement, and more. He gives some practical and honest advice on how to deal with common challenges that men face in today’s world.

     

    Rejecting women is a skill: Orion explains why it’s important for men to learn how to say no to women who are not compatible with them, and how to do it respectfully and confidently.


    Weed is more dangerous than you think: Orion warns about the hidden dangers of smoking weed, and how it can trap you in a cycle of wasted time and potential.


    The emotional gym: Orion shares how he changed his perspective on emotions, and how he learned to exercise his emotional muscles like he would his physical ones.


    The most common male sexual strategy: Orion reveals the secret behind the taxi cab analogy, and how most men approach sex and relationships in a way that is not satisfying or fulfilling.


    It’s better for women to be adorers: Orion discusses the balance of attraction between men and women, and why it’s more beneficial for women to admire their partners than to be admired by them.

    This interview is nuts, I don't know why Piers had him on, he disagrees with most of what he says. 

    Seems he's hoping Chomsky will agree with him at some point. 

    I can't imagine Piers' audience enjoyed that either..

    I feel like it is a bit what PBD did. He had guests he did not like but for the brand he collected names so it made him more popular. I didn't even watch it.

    Part 1 was them talking online, this part 2 is face to face:

       Great interviewing and framing control skills, leading and loaded questions and statements, and manipulation dynamics. Also lots of lessons based on SD stages of development, cognitive and moral development, personality types/traits, states of being, other lines of development in life and society, ideological indoctrination in one's upbringing and culture, and self biases and preferences. Also some degree of misinformation and manipulating narratives.

       Comment below, what are your thoughts and feelings and takeaways of this video?

    Alot to talk about. I asked GPT if he knows Destiny and if he read the debate with him and Vaush. It said yes and this is wht it wrote:
     

    Quote

    Yes, I have read the debate between Vaush and Destiny. It was a very heated and escalating discussion about political labels and media literacy . Vaush is a left-wing YouTuber who often debates online, sometimes with aggressive or condescending tone. Destiny is a liberal YouTuber who also likes to debate online, but more based on logic and facts. They have different views on many topics and have often clashed.

    I was fighting with bingchat for 30 minutes now. In creative mode he can analyze the talk but he makes big mistakes. In balanced mode he does not even find the video.

    Anyway at minute 35 it seems Destiny says about his flirting method that he does not fake it. The Charisma guy asks how because it is so difficult for most guys. Destiny says for one he has strong personality and then we expect point two but it never comes. Then he talks about how he figured out nagging. Well nagging is kind of fake.

    Edit:

    Of course the Charisma guy does not push back because he never does it.

    Most of what the video says is not true.  Singapore is a country worth visiting and talking to the local people.  The gap between rich and poor is a problem in every single country but compared to a country like America, China, India, the gap isn't as wide in comparison.  The mortgage of a government-subsidized house is only $1200-1600 per month and the home sells for 350K and up.  I don't think many places in the world have such a living situation.  If someone cant afford $1600/month to own a place, they are considered lazy fucks.  

    The monthly rental of a place like in California is at least $2500++ and that's paying someone else's mortgage 

    Also there are homeless people in Singapore and all over the world... I haven't been to one country that doesn't with the exception of a place like Dubai or Qatar 

    Yes the video is pretty weak but I wanted to get to the topic from the left as the forum has a left bias.

    This video is much better

    A lot of frustration must be in these people of migration-backround. Otherwise they would not be so extremely violent. This violence happens in Germany, Sweden, Netherlands to and clearly originates from african and middle eastern migrants/migration-backround people.

    I remember a very similar kind of violence in England in 2011. 
    Or the BLM riots in the USA.

    In all of the cases someone of a ethnic minority is killed by police and then violence erupts.  

    It is a bit like this forum. Most people can not handle this forum so they get kicked out. The expected standards are quite high in Western countries. Hard to deal with it. Add Islam into the mix things get nasty.

    "There's people out there that will complain about something and find an excuse why it's not beneficial. And the reason for that excuse is not that there is no data, the reason for that excuse is coming up with some sort of excuse for themselves, that's what that is."

    Specially when most spiritual enthusiasts are doing spiritual and intellectual bypassing. They don't seem to be very healthy too. You got to prove it. Bullshido is everywhere. When I was younger I used to believe in iron but now I am fine with bodyweight training. I think the cold is a cult I think I can believe in. It changed the lives of millions of people it seems. 

    The cold is the best teacher some say and it is not too expensive. Hot exposure should be done also btw.

    Who does not want to be able to be so fit to climb highest mountains naked and do marathons in a desert without water?

    Edit 1

    I like how Joe gave Huby shit because Huby had his water at 50F. Joe virtually slapped him.
