This is a cool insight: For human animals to maintain their illusion and exploitation of non human animals, they have to justify it using the fact that non human animals don't speak their language, when in fact most human animals in the world do not speak the same language.

@Alex4 That's actually an interesting insight. Thanks for sharing.

@Leo Gura With or without degree ? Plus i don't think i'll hate coding or anything. It won't be my deepest passion but i will be okay with it i think.

@Leo Gura Because i don't know how to make money in another way.

@Leo Gura My passion can't make me money. And without passion i can't succeed. Make it make sense.

@Leo Gura No i didn't, but i can learn.

@Leo Gura The problem is that i don't know how to turn passion and skill into money. with computer science it is clear, study hard and you'll get a degree and then you can get a well paying job. With rapping it is much more unstable loosey goosey and unclear. I wanted to go in an institute that teaches music production, important skills for rapping like beatmaking, mixing and mastering, but i don't know if i will get a job after finishing the institute.

@Leo Gura what kind of music theory ? Plus i need a degree that allows me to travel and stuff, because i don't want to live forever in lebanon. and also that pays well.

Hello, i am creating this thread to develop an understanding of nutrition. I know little about this field so sharing resources would be great. I am going to start:

@Tristan12 Did you try to see a psychiatrist ?

Excellent !

Example of an environment at the opportunist stage of ego development. The reason it is at the opportunist is because they display behavior that is what we may consider uncivilized, killing and torturing people for example.

hola, would be great to give example illustrating each stage of ego development, i find these stages fascinating and it would be great to study real life examples of them. share a video and the stage that it represent in this thread.

@Cireeric Thank you! It was valuable!

@Princess Arabia Thanks for sharing !

what's so striking to see in these islamic fighters and groups like hamas, hezbollah, taliban... is how their minds are completely brainwashed with islamic religion and culture. it's like a seprate reality these people live in without any sense of relativity or construct awareness. their mind is literally hallucinating islam yet to bring the idea that islam is false to one of these fighters would be the last thing he would dare to take seriously. the human's mind capacity for brainwashing is incredible : nazism, christianity, communism, science, buddhism, hinduism, islam, judaism, nationalism and patriotism, capitalism... here's a key insight: reality is whatever you imagine it to be. it's really mind opening to study different thinkers with different ideologies, to see how flexible overall the mind is in that he can take infinite shapes leading to infinite realities.

@Leo Gura You mean for my survival ? Yeah of course. But why would i care about the suffering of animals when i know it is part of God's infinity and will forever exist. More even if the multiverse theory is true, then animals and factory farming might be happening in other universes without me being able to control or affect it.

@Leo Gura Leo what do you think about my take on this: Here's my understanding of why factory farming and evil in consequence exist: God is reality, God is infinite, hence everthing has to exist including the stuff humans deem as evil: murder, torture, genocide, war... And so when you understand that, ethics and being vegan doesn't make sense, because everything will forever exist because of God's infinity, including violence, murder, torture...

Example of people at the conformist stage of ego development.
