  1. Ethics are a social construction. However, it’s important to pay attention to what your body is telling you. How do you feel about paying for an escort? That varies across different individuals.
  2. Crips and Bloods
  3. Fair point- can’t deny the importance of cognitive development required in making nuance distinctions. Your work is also doing a great service in teaching youngsters how to make such distinctions. Keep doing what you’re doing
  4. Take what is useful and leave the rest. That’s my approach with Owen and all teachers / gurus
  5. Lots of Owen bashing lately on the forum. And really demonization of stage orange in general. youngsters stand to benefit from good ol fashioned self help. Positive thinking, self mastery, goal setting, follow thru, ambition etc. All things we try to bypass with spirituality and new age shit
  6. most conformity is authentic in that most people don't know they are conforming when they are indeed conforming.
  7. Including the idea of a separate self that exists independently outside of NOW. The unfolding of your entire life has been almost exclusively mental, grounded in conceptual knowledge and backstory. God awakens when it sees its work in the unfoldment of reality; it sees itself as a sort of master craftsman through Divine Consciousness and Intelligent. Consider how much you resist this unfolding, and how much suffering is caused by not recognizing that it is all your Minds work. To fall in love with life requires you see the Intelligence of your own Mind- bask in the fact that it’s Eternal.
  8. It can be conformist if you don’t question your own questioning
  9. now that's real strength
  10. Rizz - good example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rizz
  11. Mannequin challenge back in 2016:
  12. Hoop earrings on Caucasian women.
  13. Cash conformity Checking and savings accounts shit coin payday loans lottery tickets MLMs Reading Rich Dad Poor Dad credit card scammers making it rain in the strip club
  14. Common everyday greetings: good morning good evening have a good day have a good night
  15. More conformity: Fast food. Amusement parks/Raves/festivals. Paying tithes at church or other religious gatherings . Holding doors open for people. Taking on debt to earn a college degree. Saying please and thank you
  16. I’d argue that AI can be more intelligent than humans in some respects. This is what everyone is freaking out about, but that’s what government regulation is for. If we keep eroding bureaucratic legislative institutions in favor for corporate monopoly of AI- things can and most likely will get ugly
  17. The attraction to a woman’s ass goes beyond cultural influence. Now the kinds of ass he’s attracted to- that could maybe be conformity
  18. Conservative Media like PragerU & FoxNews.
  19. Insight: All conformity is a mechanism of cultural indoctrination on some level.
  20. Liforme Yoga mats. Good mat but bought it mostly out of conformity !
  21. Where do we draw the line between real threats and AI Doomer-ism? People are losing their minds in more ways than one. Proper epistemological orientation seems like the antidote to most of the madness with AI
  22. OnlyFans
  23. Working a 9 to 5 job
  24. Sound baths are conformity .. I did one yesterday
