Most people there struggle to survive. Lately the prices have gone up. Also, you will have a difficult time buying sugar. Lol. I lived in Egypt for a long time, and I would say it's not worth living there unless you have a very good reason. However, you would witness the starkness of survival. Imagine seeing 100s of poor people living in dirt all around you. You have to be very careful when walking outside, especially as a foreigner.

That is not the case for me. No matter how much responsibilities I have, it does not get disgusting. But responsibilities make it more difficult to be the opposite. When I get sick, both of them get disgusting. Boredom or purposelessness does not make me like that. I feel excited about the idea of being a part of someone's plan, so to speak, who is more stable and decisive. It's like the feeling you get when you see something fit nicely into another thing. I don't know how else to describe it. But I also understand its price. I generally want to be empathetic and sensitive to others even if they would abuse or gaslight me. I cannot help myself from having those feelings. However, over the years I have learned to be somewhat stoic and defend myself, regardless of what I feel. It's been hard, to be honest.

@Leo Gura, so, what to do about it?

@Emerald, some of them.

Then I am not full of myself. 😁 It didn't come to me naturally and I had to learn it, which doesn't go well with lots of things as I find out. The opposite comes to me more naturally. I'm not stressed. It just feels genuine and authentic. Boredom isn't the reason, in this case, of preferring to be in a certain way. It's the arousal of being in a certain way. If by phallic you mean responsible, then I would say I have been pushed to be more responsible. Too much actually for my age. But I'm glad, to be honest. I just don't want to get into it here.

@Emerald, so, you are saying that the need to surrender would mostly vanish in the future when I meet that need? To me, it seems like the need to surrender would be there until I die because often I feel authentic when I am in surrender mode, especially in a sexual context. In that mode, I want to be in or act certain ways that are feminine, as it feels more appropriate to me. However, life does not care how I like to be. So, I have to be careful.

Ironically, the more masculine activities I did, the more I got captivated by masculine behavior. 😅 Sorry for diverting from the topic.

Haven't I clarified that I'm not talking about most Jews? Also, I was talking about the early leaders of the project.

Few of them may have, but that doesn't excuse the intention of Zionists. So Netanyahu is willing to solve the situation. Give me a break.

Early Zionists wanted to create the state by knowingly going against Palestinians. They have led Jews to the current situation.

People can be gaslighted by their own leaders.

You don't even think it's worth doing. So why bring that example? Why don't you do that yourself instead of believing in stuff?

It's like people have been living in an anti-psychedelic and belief-oriented conspiracy for decades.

Now this is intriguing! When I saw his philosophy lecture video that was shared in the blog post, it didn't make sense to me how he could have easily come up with answers just by thinking in his normal state.

They are bold. Also, it makes sense that some Greek philosophers have also taken psychedelics, which really contextualizes everything. It's a tragedy how people have portrayed those philosophers as if they came up with answers in a few days. And they strengthen their beliefs using those philosophers.

Sorry, I don't know about it.

@Twentyfirst, you have a skin in the game too. The extremists from both sides feed each other, even if Zionists were the first ones who started the whole thing. If the rights of Palestinians weren't diminished from the start, you wouldn't have any problem living with them unless you hated Jews. But I also think that thinking that eventually the extremists in Israel will lose power is just wishful thinking that ignores the fact that Palestinians are being targeted and they could be wiped out before those extremists lose power.

But also, if they included Arabs and Palestinians in their ideology, Zionism wouldn't be appealing to Jews. So, by default, non-Jews would be considered obstacles to Zionism. I think it was doomed from the beginning.

I didn't say that they shouldn't have gone to live with Palestinians. The ideology was the problem.

Fundamentally speaking, anyone who believes in having a homeland for the betterment of the lives of Jews. I think that resonates more with the original idea of Zionism. What's not problematic about that when you implement that in an area that other people live in? To be honest, I don't care what reformed Zionists call themselves. Why would they even keep calling themselves Zionists at this point?

Most people could be neutral or against extremists, but it's about who is more powerful and what they do with that power.

@Nivsch, why are you triggered? I'm not anti-Jew, nor do I think Israelis shouldn't have a land.
