@Recursoinominado The rebel wisdom video posted by @Jude_ is the best take on it. The doc is probably honest I don't know, but he has let this money making Dan Pena inspired side of him take over. He's exploited his followers and conspiracy theorists into donating money behind a claim of free speech against YouTube. Also during him being looked at more closely because of what he's been doing, it's come to light his courses have been a borderline scam, with many complaints and people have attempted to take him up on the money back offer only to be denied and have to go to their card companies. It's actually an incredible saga that's played out, with great debates on free speech and big tech. I think Rose really took on this unhealthy orange mindset at some point which is a shame as he had a lot of positives in terms of growth. Hopefully for him he learns from it when this all inevitably blows up in his face

This guy has regressed majorly, he basically scammed his followers out of a £1. 5million for a 'digital freedom platform' after his David Icke interview got 'banned'. I kinda want to watch the doc but I can't take him seriously after seeing what I've seen of him recently

Yeah there would need to be a rethink in that direction, ultimately police should be working for the people, in reality they act as a gang protecting each other and taking whatever orders are passed down from politicians. The problem is more that humans are not at a level where they can handle this type of power and not be corrupted, maybe most can but enough cant that its not working properly unfortunately. I think we will get there though -

Wrote this on another post, but probably more relevant here - The problem is really a systemic one, relying on 2 factors One is that the police have a lot of power in terms of being able to kill, according to statistics, officers have only been charged 4 times in the last 10 years for murder despite them killing a thousend people every year. I understand anyone can be carrying guns so it's a shoot first ask questions later mentally, esp given that there's no repurcussions. It can lead to a power trip from the officers and is a good argument against guns being legal. Second is that there is a lot of racism overt and implicit in America. The stars are that if youre a black man you're around 3.5x more likely to get shot by a police officer than a white man. This has been an ongoing thing in America, which has improved but still lingers in the psyche of many Americans, both in victim and perpetrater modes. So when you team up the fact that a group of people are given a license to kill and that some of these people maybe extremely racist you have what is playing out now and what will play out until some real reforms and rethinking is carried out. Riots and looting are from people have had to watch many people who look like them be continually killed and treated mis fairly. Remember Kaepernick took a peaceful knee about a very similar issue and lost his career and was ostracised by many as being unpatriotic, so how should you protest, what will actually bring change? If nothing changes and you're crticised for peaceful protests when a person is murdered, then there aren't many options left Some research if you're interested - https://www.pnas.org/content/116/34/16793 -

Im not necessarily talking about a troll, im talking about this tactic of misinformation and calls to action used across the board. So i agree with you to an extent but the idea of 'power' being the main ones using it is missing out on the complexity of the situation. There are so many agendas going on, ive seen disinformation right wing documentaries go viral and normal people who are not right wing be taken in by them. People think theyre are escaping mainstream media but social media is an even bigger minefield -

@DrewNows all this stuff is entertainment man, fighting some society wide battle, its just stuff for your ego. Mainstream do it as well like there's always something terrible about to happen, if it happens I'll deal with it then. If your life was really in danger and you lived in a war zone or something you wouldn't care about this shit. Fear is one sure fire way to get attention, 24 hour news know and so do alt-news, same thing different content -
All levels below yellow are entrenched in their ideology, your lifestyle, career, friends, identity are all based around these beliefs that you have. So to move away from them would mean sacrificing the identity that youve been building since you were conscious. Its the same reason people dont change their political leaning or favourite football team often if ever. For example using one of the people you mentioned, JP, think about the consequences if he was to move up to green and not hold so tightly to his beliefs, all of his fans hes amassed who buy his books and see his lectures will no longer support him. From a survival, reptile brain perspective, there is no benefit for him moving up and taking on new ideas or beliefs. I know some muslim people who are literally just muslims because everyone in their culture is, they dont really follow or believe in it, its just a cultural thing that they think would be impossible to live without. Basically survival instinct

Maybe, or maybe more people are typing angrily into their computers because theyre scared and others are exploiting that -
Genuinely great to hear, part of me was saying leave her to it she'll find her way, but i think if this forum has a purpose it is to help wake people up, so im glad you got the push back you required to re evaluate things, good luck going forward x

Youre right in that it will play out as it plays out, most likely that will be a few protests and internet comments. I think the fear and anger comes from misunderstanding, most conspiracy theories and misguided movements proved wrong in the past have always come about through fear and misunderstanding, from Salem witch trials to Nazi eugenics to present day. It could be argued the governments could be more transparent with information which i think is fair, having said that there is information out there so people do have freedom to search this info out. But my point is that its proven to be a very successful tactic to take advantage of people in a fear state and the reason youre getting a ramping up of these theories is because those that want to get into power or cement their power are using it as a guerilla tactic by spreading misinformation online. This is a proven thing that happens with Russia and various other political interests for the specific intent to create disharmony, this happens on both sides of the political fence and those that are in fear and a lower consciousness state tag onto this misinformation as truth, because in a nuanced world it creates a black and white, good guy, bad guy dynamic, that gives the believer a certainty about reality. If you give into this fear you create a hell for yourself. But either way people can live in this realm but it wont have much affect on the population as a whole, these theories arent too different from fundamentalist religious beliefs and society can accept and make a space for them so i dont see what will be that different in this case -
Consept replied to TrynaBeTurquoise's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Completely agree, conspiracy theories are not an evolution of human beings, theyre just aiming to shift from a current status quo to another. Its a regression because what theyre aiming to shift to is even more dogmatic than the original status quo. The evolution would be to see the pros and cons of the current system and work to build upon it, not tear it down. If we followed populist ideas it wouldnt surprise me if people started to get hanged without in town squares. The amount of hate i see spewed by people that believe these theories online as well as actual destruction and harassment in real life, how can something like this that is motivated be fear, ever be considered evolution? -
Sweden have 10x the amount of deaths per million pop (418) compared to their neighbours Norway with 43, Finland have 53 and Denmark 98. Despite the their no lockdown policy only 7.3% of the population have developed anti bodies - https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/sweden-isn-t-anywhere-close-to-reaching-herd-immunity-after-anti-lockdown-strategy-1.4950144 I was interested to see if their strategy would work but it really appears that it hasnt, this may change but i dont really see how. So basically 3000 or so people have died in Sweden that could have been avoided. If you extrapolate this strategy out to say America youre looking at a number toward a million, especially considering Sweden medically were prepared for this, had enough equipment etc. Thats not to say that fear did affect a lot of decisions but i cant see, looking at the evidence how the argument could be made that we shouldnt have locked down.

Its just called 'Tyson', its was shot in 2009 so maybe pre-dmt Tyson, but still shows his growth. His life is fascinating, i dont think many people would have come through the other side if they had his upbringing. This is the doc on Amazon prime if you got it - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tyson-Movie-Mike/dp/B00ESQCP78 Couple other bits -

I don't think you guys are giving him enough credit, he's quite a deep guy I think, he had a hard upbringing and subsequent career and some how came out the other side of it a relatively actualised person. He's spoken about how he was an animal during his boxing days and he has a detachment from who he was. I don't think it's about reclaiming glory and trying to be relevant, he seems content with his family and his podcast. I would recommend watching his documentary, very interesting. Check out this vid of him talking about dmt

Yeah microdosing her is a better idea, you dont want the full trip!

@Lyubov that's cool and I get where you're coming from, but he has raised valid points which youve dismissed because of the stage you think hes at. Also Teal has said things like her iq is 170 and I know more than any psychiatrist, these are bold claims, maybe she does maybe she doesn't but these are not spiritual claims, she's directly saying in the material world I'm smarter than everyone. So I think if you're going to make these claims you should get push back on them. It wouldn't necessarily put me off her if I thought she was helpful and I do to some extent, but I think there is something slightly off about her, don't know if it's narcissism or what, she does seem to have things she needs to work through herself

Youd probably get a similar correlation if you asked those same people 'are you feeling high levels of fear about the future'. I think this is what it comes down to, people are just fearful and stories like this give some kind of frame for that fear

Thought this was interesting to throw in -

Pema Chodren is really good. I take your point though, it's probably for a number of reasons, maybe people are used to a male leader so gravitate to them more. Many of the more spiritually inclined societies can be more unequal with men and women. It would be good to see a balance but I think it will naturally happen as more societies progress, there's a lot of female teachers in the West who, if not enlightened are following that path, like Brene Brown for example. Women tend to be more spiritually gifted but are probably held back somewhat from exploring it fully -
It's good to know the basics, but I always preferred outsourcing. If you have an interest in Web design then yeah but if you're just doing it for business reasons I don't think that's the best idea. All the most successful entrepreneurs weren't really technical guys, your role is more to learn your market and put a plan together

Where would you draw the line though? Lets say you have your own video platform and someone, maybe a Doctor, posts a video that you can catch AIDS if you have a dog in the house, this has been disproven repeatedly by 99% of doctors but the theory picks up steam and there are reports of people killing dogs, burning them alive. But the doctor who posted this is adamant that its true and is saying that he should have freedom to say what he wants, do you keep the video up?

If you get fame i guarantee it will be shallow and wont fulfil you in the way you thought it would. There is something going on internally, where maybe you dont feel loved and accepted or/and you dont feel validated as a person and you dont think you are enough as you are. This is an internal issue, youre striving for something to sort this out and you gravitate toward fame because you think you wont have the same problems if everyone knew who you were and you had money and respect and if you have that love will come, you will be accepted by everyone. But that acceptance will be meaningless and will not cover up that you dont accept yourself. I would work seriously on accepting yourself, that could mean study, could mean talking to a professional but i think the only way out is through, the pursuit fame will only be a distraction until you build up the courage to just go through the fear and accept yourself fully

On one hand I like a lot of her content, although I dont watch much anymore, I liked her stuff about defragmentation, and she has a lot of good content. On the other she has a vibe like an alien that learnt how to be a human. I'm not sure if it's her delivery or what, she also seems to have a cultish type feel to her, I wouldn't put her in the class of top tier gurus but I can see how she could help people. Infinite waters on the other hand is basically an actor, doesn't seem authentic at all -
