Thank you

Thanks guys

True, unless you consider COVID might have been a biological attack by China (as revenge for the tariffs).

Lol

It turns the frogs gay lol.

The book and the video goes into all that much better than I could.

It started with the wiping out the natives, then enslaving the blacks, then imprisoning the blacks in the 1990s (using fascist style propaganda to justify it), Japanese interments the Iraq war, and now Trump's possible deportations.

Leo has called it that. Something about how we are conditioned to have a bias toward sanity for the purposes of survival but truth is so radical it's insane or something like that.

Interesting

SD runs the risk of inappropriately placing people into boxes and feeling superior to others I think. A stage blue 60 year old can be much wiser, smarter, more mature, more emotionally developed, have better relationships than a 25 year old stage green person. Yet the stage blue person is still "less developed". It's a little confusing.

I had this immature notion for a long time that enlightened people are in a permanent and natural "5-meo like" high all the time. This can't be correct or is it?

Great video @Javfly33

Great points here on both sides. What about a hypothetical test tube baby that's grown completely outside of a woman's body @Spiritual Warfare and @BlackPhil ? What day in it's development would you two think it wrong to "abort" it?

Yes @Sea I agree we have to look for silver linings now. Policies that have allowed for almost everything to be made in China has been a disaster for the environment. If Trump slows down the mindless consumption of cheap plastic junk from China that could be a really good thing for the environment.

The polarization is the problem. Polarization brings about the exact opposite of whatever you advocate for.

It's easy to see how Trump is a thief. If politics is built on theft then how is Harris a thief?

So where is the theft in the Harris/Waltz campaign?

Is there a question? The world has a bunch of messed up things in it and female pedophilia is just another. What's there to be suicidal over?

What advice would you have wanted to hear when you were young and/or single but nobody told you?

I think that what Trump's supporters like is his political INCORRECTNESS because they also want to express themselves without being called a racist bigot and getting cancelled.

Wonderful

When choosing a political theory to defend and believe in, how do we choose which is the best? The one that has the least amount of poverty maybe?

He doesn't sound so bad in these interviews. Even in the Bloomberg interview he seems somewhat normal. I don't get why there's all these crazy clips of him and his supporters.
