What I wrote down from my contemplation is mainly that it is very profitable for the audiance and the person who promotes it as well as the platform and advertisers because it panders to the biases of shallow , underdeveloped low conscious people who are often too lazy to put in the effort emotional and cognitiv to understand the real relationships of the subject and seeing that you're probable so wrong that you'd habe to create a basis of knowledge from scratch. It sells unattainable pipe dreams while leaving out the real causes for the results which might include genetics, upbringing, socioeconomical matrix, manipulation and lying. Other factors that play into it are that many people are low iq and/or uneducated so that they cannot differentiate between a scientist talking mumbo jumbo and a crack pot spitballing scientific sounding words. Moreover people don't think about the things they hear or question it especially if it confirms their biases and because they love their phantasies and hate deconstruction of them. It also caters to the feeling of knowing stuff and the fear if one doesn't know. It helps avoiding facing core issues like insecurity and traumas and deying their existance. Also the growing distrust of mainstream media and trust of alternativ media plays into it. For the streamer it is profitable because he can milk his audiance, reinforces his own phantasies of greatness and feeding his ego and ego needs. Especially our hype culture and the structure of social media plays into that where new exiting and shallow things are promoted while hindering access to more accurate and dry solutions, addicting the mind in the process. It is profitible for the advertisors because they get eyeballs and find a pool of shallow, low developed target audiance whe is eager to buy stuff. The media platform profits from it because its all designed to keep the viewer as long as possible behind the display and make money with the adds while polluting his mind. What I noticed on a deeper level is how every mind must fit in its niche to work for all of it. After reading the prior comments I add that it's also not profitable in the sense that it pollutes the knowledge ecosystem which makes our society more stupid and often hateful and it becomes harder to discern truth from falsehood. The polltion of our minds and the deeds originating from it are also destructive and promote selfishness Truth is nessesary for real solutions like facing your real motives for wanting to be pumped up or for the mechanics of getting a mate, skills or how reality really works in general. Have I missed other aspects?

There's been no evidence that Iran was actually building a atomic bomb, even from the reports of US intelligence the months before the attack and we all know that Netanyahu has been waiting for an good oportinity to go to war woth Iran for decades and has even made all kind of efforts to drag the US into it. I think he just lied like before because the opportunity with Trump in office is the perfect blanco cheque for all kind of evil things for all the shady leaders in the world. -

US fighter jets are being deployed in the near east from the US. It's highly likely the us will support Israel in bombing Iran into a regime change or even deploy troops. -
@Leo GuraI noticed what you wrote in your blog post about severing the umbilical cord of society a lot recently. First a little introductionabout the situation where you can see a general problematic trend in the progressiv world view. I'm volunteering in a group that has the goal to give affordable access to art and culture and workshops in my city and we are driven out from our present location in a tiny forrest to make room for a tourist visitor center from an attraction around the corner and I know that my progressive friends don't see clearly during the negotiations with the local goverment how pragmatic survival is. They are optimistic to the point of naivity that we don't have to take proactive actions and look for donors for the relocation even though the city doesn't have 80k for this and won't give free hand outs easily in our current austerity and also the government is clearly stalling the negotiations. The members of our collective are thinking that the benevolent department head who gives us good proposals but has no power will safe us even though two proposals he made were denied by the mayor before. In my oppinion they are too honest and blind to see how good we are gamed by a conservative politician who deals with such problems every day. I also noticed that they fight the founder of our project who had the vision and talent in organising the whole thing including building structures and cooperations and set up the structure and negotitating with the government. She doesn't have that much time for the group any longer but she clearly cares and tries to keep her vision alive but from the groups perspective she isn't special and regarded as arrogant and dangerous for trying to influence us and accused of building a hirachy through leadership. Now about the blog post. The thing I noticed is that when I think for myself at home I can clearly comprehend what's happening to us by the local government and can think critically but when I'm there I become stupid and feel the urge to comform. Actually it's more than an urge, it's like a force that adjusts my thinking and behaviour. Additionally it's hard to explain how survival happens, what ego developement and selfishness is, especially because it goes against our group's core values of equality and fairness. It's also an effort to frame the problem and solutions in a certain way so that my explainations don't trigger someone, especially because I'm more direct. Also our meetings are also not meant to go that deep in philosophy and they think they already know how stuff works. In general I also noticed that in conversations with other people I care that I frame things in a likeble way even if it bends the truth to fit the situation. I was shocked when I saw how I bend the truth to max survival but then I've seen that everybody does that to different degrees and I cannot truth bomb people because nobody likes it to hear even though in some cases it would be a real and more sustainable solution to the problems. It differs in degree from group to group and person to person but it's a general trend in left groups that you have to use their wordings and if you critisize the subject or idiology you get easily smeared and outcast as I have seen with other people. All this is the summary from my observations.

@zurew I'd take leo serious. Right now after 5-6 years of work I'm starting to understand things about reality and when I watch his 5-7 years old episodes I realise that he understood it and was talking about it years ago. He's been doing understanding and getting conscious of things for years day after day.

On a healing festival once a friend went into a workshop where they were taking mdma and chanting in high frequency and after that all had a gang bang to balance their energies.

@Leo Gurasame problem with the access to the video. I'm not sure if I've found the right one. If this is the right one it's note worthy that a big part of rural eastern europe lived in similiar fashion until the late eighties. So that people know that it's closer home than many think. In some rural villiages even arranged marriages happened until the sixties and seventies. But it's nothing like a dark shed in the snowey mountains of Tibet.

I've found this tribal warfare video from West Papua from the sixties. It's interesting to see how people fought in sthe stone age basically and how serious it is. It is so serious that only few get wounded.

For those people outside the us who cannot watch the video of the salt traders of borana on the blog. This is also an interesting one. This reminds me of when I was a child in the 90ies my mother married a man from the slums in Ghana and we went there for a visit and wedding celebration. We also had an audiance with the king from his clan and we got his approval after giving him some gifts. We were living one week in a hotel in a richer neighborhood with walled houses around and security and another in the slums with his family corrugated iron huts without a toilet and electricity.

I would recommend this one: https://waage-shop.com/50g-0001g-FC50-Calibration-weights I has two weights to calibrate it and you can adjust it to be completely even levelled. But before you use it please first read the psychonaut wikipedia article on dosage measurement to not risk your live.

@xeontorIf I may ask, do you have a schientific background in one of the hard sciences? -
99.9% of people wouldn't think that through and so far ahead, especially in such a young age. That's one of the reasons he reacted that way. Back to the Freaks of Nature thread with you 😋

If it's the big city in the Main area than there is a lot of good opportunity to do pick up and also in the major cities with universities around it. Berlin is has also great opportunities.

@Leo Gura I think one of the differences between Portugual and Portland is that Portugual is a very small country with a its own language and therefore it is not as easy for the homeless across europe to come there as it is in the US. Those people could also get deported back to their countries of origine if they break the law. There is also a cultural problem. The people in the US are often more like "everybody is on his own" and as scholar has said there are no structures in place to deal with the sickness and trauma of the drug addicts as in most European countries. For people from Europe that is obvious. In Portugual if addicts get caught they lose their drugs and have to visit a rehab strict program and get supported by a wide net. This net is also very well interwoven across society. Take for example health insurance, which covers basic services. The people can go to a doctor or rehab clinic or call an ambulance and it is paid by their insurance which prevents in many cases that people fall that low. Also in most European countries the people expact that the goverment protects and help those people, even though over the last years we got so much libertarian shit (a lot from the US) via social media. On the other hand I have to say that the bigger the country the harder it is to scale it up and accumulate the resources. We should also consider that those rehab programs do not always work, and most often not, if one is already really really deep down the heroin hole. Like Portland in countries are also cities which serve as hubs where it is easier to access certain drug leading to people to flock to. The city where I live in has huge air port and is known for as one of the biggest transshipment points for cocain (crack) in europe making it relative cheaper so that addicts across a big chunk of the country come to and live on the streets, overwhelming the system. But here are also other factors at play like the city has one of the biggest legal red light districts in europe which attracts scatchy and broken people and unlawful behaviour. What's remarkable is that we have two sites here where consuming is tolerated and drug addicts can get clean syringes and needles and have the possibility to consume their drugs there safely and spent some time leading to a reduction of the risk of overdoses and death reducing the number of drug deaths from 150 to 35. In my opinion we shouldn't legalize hard drugs and lsd because people are too foolish to handle them properly. I think we here and some of my friends live in a bubble of relative responsibility and maturity (sometimes not even that) but most people aren't like that and subtracting from their health by using them improperly. I also know plenty people using weed avoiding adressing their problems so that they slowly fester.

@Leo Gura I've come so far to think that it depends on how you want to construct it. For example you could decide that you make it dependent on features like having breasts, a soft face, female curves or lots of facial hair, broad shoulders and big of muscles. One also could asign a totally new category or just decide that you're either male or female. It'd be hard to refer to your dna for a decision because our normal categories are not nuanced enough. I've noticed that by thinking about it these constructs easily break apart and the boundaries in between start to blurr. However we could say that there are certain traits that make you musculine or feminine which help to create the concept of male and female. You could also make up your own label, although the relativity of it makes it harder to have people agreeing on it, especially because of each world view and survival agenda. If this wasn't the point, could you give a hint at what lies deeper?
