Saw on Leo's blog that he said Ken is "mistaken" for thinking Stage Green is the problem when it comes to our present-day political situation. I am simply making this post to invite more nuance into the discussion, since I think there is a lot of gold in discussing this topic. I've read Ken's book "Trump and a Post-Truth World" and he does berate Green heavily and focuses on how Green can improve to ensure a smoother political climate, and just an overall more harmonious path in the development of mankind. Yet Ken doesn't put the blame entirely on Stage Green, he maintains religious fundamentalism is one of the greatest sources of evil in the world currently, along with capitalist greed. Yet I believe there is something to be said in particular about Stage Green, which represents the leading edge of consciousness in society today, needing to do a better job of "leading" in the hyper polarized climate today. Much of the rhetoric around anti-this, anti-that, deconstructing/critiquing everything without letting anything new really grow in its place, etc is extremely threatening to the Blue/Orange worldview which is contributing to the political sphere being so heavily polarized. Basically what I'm saying is that Green's ineffective approaches of communicating with Blue and Orange have massively contributed to the political state today and the election of Trump...this is what Ken is getting at, which is why he eats into Green so much in his books and podcasts...he believes because Green is the most developed group, that they have a responsibility as the "leading edge" to facilitate progress, and they've done a terrible job at this, causing Blue and low Orange to rally behind the devil Trump. There is a lot of merit to saying Stage Green is the problem (of course not the ONLY problem)...but let's discuss this. What role does Green play in the present day political sphere? And what can be done to improve the situation?

@Elliott these are so cherry-picked. AOC is one of the only dems who actually do anything, rebuking her would be one of the worst mistakes the dems could possibly make.

@Leo Gura what is your solution then for evolving mankind past this hypercapitalist reality?

@Elliott I don't think you actually know what she says and stands for dawg, you're way off the mark.

@Elliott what's your problem with AOC?

@Leo Gura fair enough. When I was writing the post I was trying to think of what Green could do/communicate differently and I couldn't even think of anything that would have major impact, so I just asked a question instead lol. It all doesn't really compute with Blue or Orange anyway

Most batshit thing I've read on this forum.

Leo should get out of Las Vegas if he wants to get over that paradigm lock, so many materialistic stage orange women there that only reinforce his view of dating and women.

Spiritual teacher Aaron Abke appears to support Trump. At least he isn't openly a zealous MAGA supporter, but I always knew there was something up with the guy. He says in these comments "It is our opinion that God is using Trump to expose the deep state, the division in our country, and spark a movement of awakening towards unity."..."I think Trump was far and away the best president of my lifetime." Yuck. What a joke. Now I can't take him seriously anymore.

Absolutely not.

@Something Funny He and the guy he runs his podcast with I assume

There is no one who voted for Trump that has their center of gravity in Green or Yellow.

such a simple yet effective metric to see who is full of shit lol

It's always some evil "overlords", "elites", "higher ups" that no one knows about or has ever seen that are somehow controlling everyone and everything and actively plotting against them...they run wild with this narrative.

@Emerald Do you think there is a way for someone to realize that masculine and feminine are more than purely social constructs without using psychedelics? I have many friends who think masc and fem are only social constructs and I've been at a loss of words trying to explain to them that such a thing is not the case.

Yes in messages where Claude has to analyze a lot of data at once the message limit can be reached rather quickly. I import my journals for Claude to analyze which contains more than 100,000 words, this is pretty heavy so I can only do so much before the message limit is reached.

Vivek is Trump's minion.

@Leo Gura no financial gain? Really? Feel like you could sell a lot of copies depending how you brand Leo

@Leo Gura approximately when will the course be released?

what everyone else is saying about exercise is extremely accurate. It is the #1 most important habit for keeping the depression away. I am not diagnosed but bipolar is common within my family and I usually go through at least one depressive spell and one hypomanic episode per year. I have gotten very good at fighting the depression, ever since I found my life purpose and began the process of actualizing it along with working out 3-5x a week I pretty much never get depressed anymore, whereas before I would become suicidally depressed in my episodes when I felt no purpose in life, was not working out, and had bad routines and habits. I would be curious to know what your hypomanias are like? These are the episodes that have the potential to be harmful if you aren't aware what can trigger it and when it is coming on.

@VictorB02 Your points sound like they are coming STRAIGHT from some conservative media outlet. There's hardly any depth to anything you are saying. All of this is highly nation-centric which is a very limited perspective. I'm hearing the narrative that what you're saying is about me, my country, my nation, my people...but at the end of the day, it's not about the US, it's about the whole entire world. As the leading military power, the US has a duty to maintain peace on this Earth...it would be an abomination to not help Ukraine in this situation, who Russia wants to usurp literally just because they don't like the fact that Ukraine has become more westernized (more like the US) and has swayed from Russia's collective values. It would be extremely concerning if we simply just allowed Russia to annex Ukraine. The illegal migrant issue as well as the homeless and homeless veteran issue is a very complex and nuanced topic. Yes, all these illegal migrants and the perks they get do get mess with the balance and make life more difficult for a lot of people in the US but they come here in the first place to escape actual "nightmares of poverty"...I find it absolutely atrocious that you called the PNW a nightmare and war zone...dude I have lived there my whole life and if you call that a nightmare then you better call Mexico the absolute darkest depths of fucking hell. What we should be doing is funding and setting up more projects in Central America to help develop them so these countries are no longer shitholes that people need to flee from. I would gladly pay 2% of my income to these projects if they were set up correctly...but of course conservatives would lose their fucking minds if this happened and call it an infringement on their freedom and liberty and continue to get angry as hell when illegal migrants enter their country without ever fucking acknowledging why they came here in the first place.

@The Mystical Man If thousands of people lives are changed for the better because of Leo's teachings and 2 people commit suicide, should he take all his videos down?

This thread made me brain dead

You are right about this. I have thought about this a lot and ultimately listened to my heart when it came to the decision. The two girls that I have met are definitely not completely turquoise, but I would say they are solidly Tier 2. I go to a university with 23,000 students. 0.01% of 23,000 is 23. That would leave 11 or 12 of them being female. And there are probably less than that because college aged kids are usually younger than a fully developed human. But I don't see why it would be so shocking to meet a couple girls out of the maybe 4 or 5 or more that are solidly Tier 2 at the school. I met one of them at an outdoor yoga class, which is a place they have a good chance to be.

Why is it so hard to believe?
