Sorry @Carl-Richard, as im sure you know i have not read the entire thread, i would have been more sensitive. I think I understand why you would take this subject so seriously, and I'm not taking it very seriously, I'll stop commenting.

He was in a cult?

Great answer

I completely disagree with your characterization of mine and Wilhems questions. I believe you don't actually understand the relevance of our questions and are dismissing them because you just believe that you do.

Cool cool

That'd be something a cult would do. To me you guys @zurew @Joshe @Carl-Richard appear to be at the peak range of intelligence on this forum, have you considered that most of the other people on here might just have different behavior patterns than yourselves in general that look more 'cult following' monkey see monkey do than yourselves? Perhaps you're expecting less intelligent people to react in a similar manner that you three do to certain things, or are disturbed by behaviors that can just be attributed to lower intelligence.

How about you?

What do you believe China and Singapore are doing that's uniquely different than generally just following the United States lead in almost everything?

Oh my God you're even doing the bOtH sIdEs now.

You guys are valuing yourselves based off of Leo whom you have an identity attachment with, it's like teenagers acting out against their parents. You two gotta do therapy for your Leo issues. Im being serious, I'm not downplaying Leo's issues.

Fuck

Certainly

@Joshe but I no longer believe you're being sincere in your dialogue on this issue, i don't believe you're being open-minded. Thank you for the effort you put in to explain your view to me though. Ciao

@Carl-Richard so your complaint with me and Father Wilhelm is that we question a part of an argument? This is counterproductive to you? I don't understand the complaint, by questioning a single part I do not dismiss the other parts. Do you see a difference between the scientific method and debate?

Wow, any critical questioning of either of your theories and you both go off the rails emotionally.

I didn't say that, I said I saw it as incoherent, I was and still am open minded to the possibility that you're correct.

I was being sincere when i said i think you're very intelligent. Even intelligent people fall into dunning-kruger, it's called Expertise Transfer Fallacy. I'm not sure what you're an expert in professionaly, I previously thought it was something in psychology, to be transparent. I never tried to explain narcissism, i was asking questions to elicit critical thinking in yourself around your ideas that i saw as incoherent. I apologize if this wasn't evident, I was trying to understand your view, not narcissism.

My working theory is something like you've come to the realization that Leo is not what you thought he was. Maybe you trusted him and followed him down a bit of a path and now realized he misled you, he was deceitful. You feel betrayed, scared, confused so you're lashing out with hyperbolic accusations to receive somewhat of an apology from Leo. I just threw that together AD-HOC cowboy style, very intuitive flow sort of drivel, but it's just to illustrate the thought behind my question.

Yes yes, sure sure

Glazed right over my other question Mr.Psych......

I have never posted an AI response, you've said this before, I never posted an ai response in my life.

We see trump in much more than one online wild forum, we have decades of crime and real life behavior documented. I know you're very intelligent, by the following I don't mean that you're exhibiting the dunning-kreuger effect, but what you're posting is.

Grandiosity is not narcissism, especially on the internet......

@Carl-Richard Are you sure this isn't about resentment on your part toward Leo? A 'never meet your heroes' sort of situation?

More strawmanning, I mean in the normal sense of knowing, like a psychologist would know. You're being strangely flippant on this topic. Sadghuru is still categorically not a charlatan right?
