  1. I think the video is self explanatory.
  2. You're too naughty, you forgot to put holes in it.
  3. Liberal or conservative doesn't define inherent character. Both are equally susceptible to biases. There's cancel culture that can be taken to the extreme and there's conservative bias that might look like religious dogma. Both have their strengths and weaknesses and it's ideal to not gloss over any of their toxic tendencies.
  4. Well... How can you grow spiritually if you show love to one and disdain for another? You guys are wallowing in your own bullshit if you cannot have compassion for all.
  5. I hope you didn't receive warning points.
  6. Humility and empathy.
  7. He bashes everyone except himself.
  8. @Sidra khan dealing with peeps who don't know how to mind their own business
  9. Hehe count me.
  10. Not necessarily. If two people love each other, nothing should hold them back. Only if they really love.
  11. Shouldn't love come from the heart?
  12. I never understood how self respect had anything to do with it.
  13. I've known a few girls who have dated broke men. They aren't very stage orange. But of course they have self respect. I don't know why respect is associated with being broke.
  14. Thank you Bunny. You're a cool person in real life.
  15. @DrugsBunny why do you insult others though?
  16. You're confusing what Leo is saying. What Leo is saying is that if she is not attracted to you then you on the bad side of the red line. You're friendzoned. Let's say this zone is a triangle. So you're in the triangle now. If she filters a guy as attractive, he will be on the good side of the red line, let's say that zone is a circle. But this circle will have two layers - one player and the other boyfriend. If she sees you attractive enough but not boyfriend material then she would want a one time and then never look back. If she sees there's a chance for intimacy, she might want you as her boyfriend and more. She will use her guy friend for regular talk, he will never get intimacy from her, that area is reserved for the boyfriend, if she is not fully opening to her boyfriend, it's an emotionally abusive relationship most likely and toxic and she is probably looking for confirmation through her guy friends, but you can't call this intimate talk, it's like her confession to make sense of her ongoing relationship. If it's a healthy relationship she will not find the need to talk to her guy friends about it and she will be more open to her boyfriend. I did not see where the transactional thing came. The only thing to know is that no matter what you can't enjoy intimacy with her if you are friendzoned, and relationship talk is waste of your time ideally and you should not do it too much, of course you can always do it as a friend but if you have a girlfriend then probably avoid being her vent partner because there isn't much for you in it unless you are deriving equal value in being friends with her. Hope this clears up your confusion.
  17. That's what we call culture. Culture differs from place to place depending on people. You might as well ask why Russia has dictatorship.
  18. Feminism in the US is anti-family anti-man. Feminism in other first world countries focus on equal rights.
  19. I don't think most mass shooters had a drinking problem. I think an inverse correlation exists between guns and alcohol. People who get drunk do get violent but only short term resulting into club brawl fights. In fact drinking causes much less violence long term since it inhibits executive functions and most people who drink are scarcely able to handle themselves let alone carry out a shooting that needs measurable levels of alertness. With drinking, there can be a massive increase in drunk driving fatalities and domestic violence but not mass shootings. Drinking inhibits aggression. Most regular drinkers aren't known to commit serious crimes because they lack coordination and agility. Regarding the glorification of guns, this is a historical thing and every country has a history that has uniquely shaped itself into existence. There is one crucial difference. Slave trade was much more common and widespread in the US than in Australia or Europe. There's a distinct slave history in the US. This says that the general culture was more hostile than other places. The toxic family culture in part due to feminism, erosion of church values, these values are still intact in other countries. If you replace a church with a club, things are going to be a bit shady.
  20. Europe and US are very different. Europe is a conglomerate of different countries and cultures. Europe is more homogeneous racially. Most people in Europe don't have guns. There's a fallout of the wild west culture in the US that has always lingered around. We don't see glorification of guns in Europe. If you take a single country from Europe, it's nowhere close to US in size. Canada, Europe and Australia don't have toxic social family culture, they are way more conservative, with a relatively smaller distribution of guns. Historically America has always been glorifying guns. Mental health issues generally have a root in family, social structure, drug usage and food. All these have been perversely exploited by different industries for profit. For example, American food is known for junk, toxic chemical buildup, drugs are distributed irrationally. The rate of drug consumption itself is extremely high, you can look into opiate and cocaine and the recent fentanyl crisis. Homelessness is a big issue. Most Mass shooters come from low income groups. Crime is normalized to some extent. When you grow up in environments of crime, violence, drugs, and toxic food, it's easy to see how it all creates a volatile mix.
  21. @Brandon Nankivell Aya is the divine goddess.
