Yes, I noticed it too in some Ultra-Orthodox people. While there are those who are fanatical and very red-blue, the reality is that they are not all similar and are often a combination of a few spiral dynamic states. I have Ultra-Orthodox neighbors who smoke weed, listen to psychedelic trance music, and are sort of hippies, but are also Ultra-Orthodox. This is interesting.

This is true, and it stems from the repression of life, creativity, and chaos, and, on an energetic level, the repression of the feminine. People and institutions can't repress creativity, life, and chaos while expecting to get to the truth or have radical breakthroughs and evolution. Society is starving for true creativity, out-of-the-box thinking, and the unpredictability involved with messy progress rather than the fixed focus on the results. We forgot that great results usually come with messy and imperfect process. This reminds me of this good channel with some radical but true insights about art and creativity:

I am writing this while one of my dogs is sitting on my lap, after she did a little cute fart ❤️

May 15, 2026. I opened a new journal. I write about all that wants to be written through me.

Yes, it gives such a good understanding of ourselves, reality, and people. It's a great tool.

Yes, this is not all men, but enough harmful men to cause damage. It's like Russian roulette: you have a basket of 10 apples, and one of them is poisoned. Would you be eager to take an apple out of the basket, or would you be cautious and suspicious? We women are told many contradictory messages. When we are picky and suspicious about men, we are criticized for not being more open, "feminine", and easygoing, but when we are too easygoing and open and end up with harmful men, we are criticized for not choosing better. Are feminists angry about the systematic oppression and the harm caused by patriarchy to women (and men)? Of course. The same way a person who has experienced racism and has been oppressed based on class their entire life would respond. This is a natural human reaction. Is it rooted in revenge? Not at all. Should it have been rooted in revenge, women would have killed and raped any man in their sight and done to men exactly what they did to women. Sixty million women would visit a website where they learn how to rape their unconscious and drugged husbands! People look at being a feminist as some moral failure, but they don't look at rapists and pedophiles the same way. People, men and women, literally preferred a pedophile and a rapist to be the president of the US only so it would not be a woman! This is part of the problem. The main reason people are so negative about feminism is the exact reason feminists are furious: systemic hatred of women and femininity. If you think that feminism is about blindly hating men, then you are just strawmanning it. There are women who uphold the patriarchy too, which is acknowledged by the movement, and there is active discussion about it. Patriarchy is more than a gender problem, it is also a class problem and a race problem and environment problem and it affects all aspects of our lives: money, sex, culture, art, spirituality, and science. This is deeper than that. Look at patriarchy as an unconscious matrix that most people are not aware of and unconsciously participate in. They are literally socialized to do so and have no reference for another reality, and they unconsciously defend it, regardless of its dysfunctionality, just because it is familiar and feels like home. But this is an illusion. Starving patriarchy means letting this low-consciousness and dysfunctional framework die. This really needs to die because it hurts all of us. This is serious and not funny. And we should not be silent or afraid, but bring the shadows and the dysfunctionalities to the surface, look them in the eyes, and strive for a better reality for all. Feminists actually put a huge mirror in front of society, which society rejects, even liberals reject it, because this a threat, because truth can be too intimidating and unfamiliar, and people cling to the familiarity and comfort of their culture, which is strongly tied to their identity and survival. Talking about these issues is not an attack on someone, but rather an invitation to look deeper and to think and reflect. Those who feel triggered when the truth comes to the surface and is put in front of their face need to contemplate why. Why do they feel so defensive? Is it because they participate in it and uphold it? This is very difficult to engage with people who have never read any feminist literature, who have never seriously contemplated this issue, or who have never been directly affected by it. It is heartbreaking that in what we call a spiritual forum, in which you would usually expect more open-minded and truth-seeking people, you encounter the same closed-minded mindset you would encounter from a "normie." Instead of people engaging with openness and curiosity, they are acting defensive and toxic, distorting and strawmanning what we say. And we have nothing to do with it. Like, really. I can talk about it here, but this all falls on deaf ears. This is actually a good example of conformity and how difficult it is to engage with a herd of like-minded people and how difficult it is to challenge the status quo.

Ah, it is just Leo and his casual hallucinatory arguments with imaginary people on the forum. Very non-schizophrenic of him.

Cats are really beautiful. It's not surprising that they were worshipped in ancient Egypt. I actually see the magic in animals. I am hypnotized by them. I love to stare even at bugs, like roaches. One part of me is disgusted, and the other is fascinated by their anatomy, beauty, and the energy and presence of their consciousness. When I read the book The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka, it expanded my perspective on bugs.

So we are all schizophrenic then. Are all hallucinations equal? I don't think so.

I think that this guy has a nice integration of stage Yellow. He has money and is spending it on helping people, children, and animals, especially in poor parts of Russia. I can see a good integration of blue, orange, and green in the way he thinks and talks about the systems in Russia.

Euphoria, especially season 3. There are so many stage red behaviours (drug addiction and dealing, prostitution, crime, etc.) and examples there. There is also some stage orange and slightly green and blue, but it is mainly red. This is a good show, love it.

Dude, this is disgusting. Why to put yourself and others in such risk? Work on your self-esteem and the reason you want to sleep with 100 women to begin with. What are you trying to prove, and to whom?

Yes, they are full of shit to be honest.

Physical reality does have asymmetries and inequalities. The question is, are they natural or artificial? Example of a natural one: women give birth, men can't, but they have more muscle. Example of a non-natural one: women are systematically deprived of the same rights men have, such as voting, divorcing, owning property, freedom, and power. Can you differentiate between the natural and the artificial ones? Why are there divorce laws to begin with? Because of feminists advocacy. Not because the patriarchal system one day decided to be kind. Men work in more physical jobs because of their muscle power; this is an example of natural asymmetry. Take into account that men are also paid better for their risky jobs. Even if not, this is not because of women, but because of other men who exploit the muscle power of their fellow men for profit. Women take risks to their bodies, lives, and safety by marrying men, living with men, and having children. Women are more likely to get hurt by men who are close to them and living with them in the same house. This is a real issue that feminists address. No, I don't frame every act by a man as misogyny. Just because I address the systemic oppression of women does not mean that it is an attack on individual men. The truth is that rape and femicide exist, due to systematic misogeny, no matter how you frame it. Many of you want to justify this as some natural reality that we have nothing to do with, like "boys will be boys," but this is not the case. A big part of it, and perhaps even most of it, is due to a systemic issue, and if you are not sincere and do not address it, you are part of the problem. You are protecting a dysfunctional and toxic society. In a less hierarchical and patriarchal society, one that is more egalitarian and in which women hold equal power, there is significantly less to non, rape, femicide, and other forms of misogyny-based harm against women. No, I was talking about the relationship between men and women, not about everything that men do simply because they exist. Do you know what benevolent misogyny is? It is the belief that women are inherently weak and irrational and need men's guidance and protection, expressed through doing tasks for them because they are supposedly too weak or incapable themselves, which justifies dominance and control. It can also involve putting women on a pedestal, idealizing and praising them if they conform to patriarchal expectations, but demonizing them as soon as they do not, the love-hate cycle, the Madonna-whore complex. Those behaviors may look positive on the surface, but they derive from the same misogynistic root. Not every single man exhibit those behaviours of misogeny or benelovent misogeny. But they are very common ways in which men treat and relate to women. BTW, I know that it is very nice to talk to me, but I already covered this in my other convo with you. Please spare me the repetitive arguments.

Same here. Your takes are very refreshing too.

I already covered it here:

Women are expected to prevent male violence, survive male violence, report male violence, prove male violence, and recover from male violence silently. So much invisible struggle.

Open doors and paying on dates is a nice gesture, but this is not enough for a gender that does most of the labor in the world and is paid half of what it deserves. In patriarchy, there are often two options: either benevolent misogyny or standard misogyny. Of course, women would prefer the benevolent one because it appears softer, as it masks itself as kindness. But this is still misogyny not real love, kindness, appreciation, or respect. Women are socialized to expect so little from men, and the bar is set very low. Men working more helps usually themselves, gives them more opportunities to focus on their careers, self actualize, have more power in society, more dating opportunities and have more money, while women being at home raising the children of both of them are not paid for it, do not accumulate wealth in this time, do not progress in their careers, and are exposed to being financially vulnerable and dependent on men. The stakes are too high for a woman. Being a woman in a patriarchal system is the biggest risk, but without all the glory and money men receive. Please go through the resources shared in this thread, if you really want to learn and open minded. I am tired from going in circles an replying to the same arguments over and over again.

This is too dramatic. You are the first one who started with those childish tantrums because I didn't validate your bias as you expected.

Nah, you don't support feminism. You’re just an incel and a misogynist. If you supported feminism, you wouldn't talk to a woman like that.

How does chivalry help women? This is benevolent misogyny. If you want to help women, stop expecting invisible labor, stop raping and making women feel unsafe, stop watching porn, stop supporting this industry, stop protecting predatory men, stop bullying feminists. Exploitation of women is part of patriarchy. Because this is obvious, if you live on earth for a while.

Yes dude, as if my real-life experience as a woman of sexual assaults, rape, direct misogyny, and systemic oppression are some irrational woo-woo things that I imagined. Don't gaslight me. You are an hypocrite, because you previously stated that you support feminism. Probably virtue signaling from your side to appear more conscious than you are. Typical "nice guy". Do some real work on your misogeny rather than covering it up. .

Most billionaires and people in power are men because of patriarchy. They are the ones responsible for the crisis. Why are you protecting them? Are you afraid of them? Are you loyal to them because of some bro code while blaming women for exposing shitty and abusive behavior of men towards both men and women? If so, congrats, you are brainwashed by patriarchy. Patriarchy persists in your brain. You are such a good and submissive boy. Good job. I’m sure Jeff Bezos appreciates you.

How do male desires for fairness because of testosterone go in line with a patriarchal structure which is inherently hierarchical and unfair? If that were the case, then men would simply act fairly and wouldn’t be oppressive towards women or exploit nature over the last few thousand years. There would also be no poverty or hunger. Saying that this study debunking patriarchal structures as being socially conditioned is simply not accurate.

Western/white feminism is just an extension of patriarchy. The 50/50 feminism, the girl-boss feminism, the choice feminism, the feminism that does not question patriarchal expectations of women and beauty standards, that is not real feminism. It is a puppet Patriarchal, capitalistic and distorted version of feminism that is convenient for the system.
