ok, I will contemplate that,

I get your "no bullshit" approach tot things Leo, but sometimes there has to be place for interpetation and discussion. It depens what art means for you, for some it might be art, for some not. Some fancy video game can be perceived as art by some nerds like us, but for my mother it might be just a bunch of pixels on a screen. Amazing feats of engineering wake the same emotions in me as some Picasso paintings do for some avant-garde art consumers. I get it, I am also tired of entertaining post-modern fluff of woke fools, but we can exaggerate the other way also.

Flying to the moon is art. Dutch urbanism is art. Government employs aritsts that do the art.

@Leo Gura Imagine the government making games. Baiscally a competent non-corrupt govenrment can innovate and make stuff many times better than corporations, because they have loads of money and connections. Think about what NASA did. Gov programs gave us most of the amzing tech we have now, privates just took the tech and made profits with it.

Most people are children, Leo's work is not for children.

As Leo said, you'll never know for sure. People might hide their real faces or behave in evil ways. Until you know the person personally and see how they interract with others in pressing situations where their patience and felxibility is pushed to the limits you can't make a accurate conclusion. I have no clue how well Leo is treating his girlfriends for example. I think we should make a distinction between intellectual stage Yellow and behavioral stage Yellow. When shit hits the fan, people regress into monkey behavior.

ask them trap questions that will reveal their biases and partisanship. When they aren't able to see perspectives as they are, just perspectives, and they put thier worldview as asbolutely better, then that's not Yellow.

At the end, Kyle says he did not go far enough. From a big picture perspective I would say that even if he went further with progressive politics, Trump would still have come into power, judging from an Integral SD perspective. You just can't go full Stage Green in the US with no bad consequences. 1. Average folk from the country side are not even Orange, they will not jump a stage, they have to burn though Orange first. So Green full steam ahead will lead to backlash. 2. The Super rich will lobby the shit out of any possible news anchor in order to keep their millions, and the "woke" Green gave them enough propaganda material.

Don't let my smile trick you. I am a badass MF. I eat armchair forum sages for breakfast. I don't ask for your POVs, I ask your GF how happy she is with you.

On the one hand, I kind of get your point, that Yellow people could be wise enough to win the majority of people by understanding all points of view. On the other hand, right now I can't see a moderate, mature vibed politician winning. you win now by pressing emotional buttons, and I doubt Yellow will want to play that game.

@Carl-Richard I think the hardest part is integrating Yellow on day to day life. Those 1-2% are the ones who live through Yellow not just logically understand it. If you follow us for 6 months, you will logically get it it, it is not that hard. But to live from Yellow, that is shit hard. in the same way anyone can understand that by swearing to a guy that cut your way is pointless, but you do it anyway when it happens. Never get tricked by words, I look at actions. Any fool can come with theories.

@Elliott i was expecting him to lie, he has that lier vibe. It seems he is convincing people however, part of this has to hold some water. I have do check his case.

I just finished this. Idk how much of this guys story is true, but if at least 50% is true, then I understand why Trump got in power

If you throw uncomfortable truths to people you meet the first time, you might repell anybody, even mature men. It just sends an autistic, immature vibe. In a relationship, after many years of letting the person know who you are, you might create even more attraction with telling uncomfortable truths. Because she sees that you are not afraid to show your real opinions, you show up as real and honest. Combine that with long episodes of compassion and empathy, and she will melt in your presence.

dudes, in what fantasy world you live in? I see most men being even more immature than most women. I see women face the truths of life while men increasingly escape the world through gaming, porn, shitpill, men apologetic ideologies. Even most men on this forum are very immature. Look at relationships, men destroy relationships because of their immaturity in most cases.

Do you deny that clothing does not affect the situation? Lol

What you described there is not maturity man, it is the opposite

If you aim for sex, then 100% take de dude's advice. But if you aim for the deepest relationship ever, then find a woman who deeply understands herself and reality, not a child. I think this guy dealt with childish women. Of course you should not be very direct and super honest with such instagram-orange-make-up girls. They are not ready for it. But I refuse to believe that women are incapable of dealing with the truth of the world and at the same time be attractive. Maybe not attractive to some guys, whatever. The most attactive girls I met were hilghy intellectual but playful at the same time, not children. In the same way that you cannot be direct and honest with a nice guy. No mattter if men or women, if they are children, treat them like children. Maybe the universe will wake them up sometime, no you, let them sleep.

@Emerald Good points. I think a very developed woman can switch from her masculine to her feminine side easily. She will go on her masculine side and truth wrestle with you, then when the argument is over, she will chill out and become flexible and emotional again.

WORD man. I was so disappointed of so many men in my life that my opinion is exactly the opposite. Now I decided to not assume that the men I meet are mature, because I was so wrong about it too many times. I met many more mature women than men. Just because they are logical and talk about philosophy shit, does not make them mature. Maturity is in emotional intelligence and behavior, not in philosophy bullshit. Men have to be forged like swords, but our snowflake societies pamper them thier whole lives. No doubt we have so many incels and many women who decide to stay single. Better single than together with a man-child.

This is so important. To combine what you get from spirituality and apply it on day to day life. If you separate spirituality from you mortal human form, it will be as worthless as a seal in the desert. Your human form works so hard to relaize God so it can enlighten its daily life and lives of others. You only realize God for the sake of realizing it then you die, and what? You become God either way when you die.

I notice two big types: 1. The mature, more moderate left. Who is usually composed of 30 years old+ people who understand that our biggest concern right now is fixing the economy, taxing the super rich and lowering taxation on the middle class. 2. The new woke left. More radical and idealist, who is composed mainly of under 30 years old girls and androgynous nice guys, who focus mainly on the environment and identity politics, canceling and moralizing people. They are like a subculture. If the rockers wore leather pants with chains hanging on them, these kids have septum rings and put their pronouns on social media. People like us do things like this. Us vs. them mentality. Mainly Stage Blue masquerading as Stage Green. Personally I consider myself a moderate leftist, because I see how the super rich fuck me in the ass and fixing this should be our main concern. I understand that if I moralize and cancel people, they will hate me and demonize me. I understand that we have to negotiate and compromise with the capitalists because, otherwise we risk an ego backlash. These problems we have in society won't be fixed overnight. I understand the Maslow's pyramid of needs and Spiral Dynamics. People who have no food to put o the table, who can't pay their rent and bills, have no openness to expand their consciousness. They don't give a damn about Palestine, about other races, about LGBTQBLABLABLA, BECAUSE they are in SURVIVAL mode. But yea, studying psychology and economy is not as cool as identity politics. They can't even get their gender studies nonsense right. What is a man? What is a woman? And you are amazed when people laugh at you. These kids make the moderates hate the left, and it sends the country back in time. Like they did in Sweden. Because of their push to take more and more refugees, the moderate people had enough and started voting right. Now we have the right wing in power deregulating the economy, privatizing healthcare, lowering taxes on the rich etc. Thank you very much dear kids!

@Leo Gura You are a genius. This is why most women get politics wrong or have an incomplete perspective, because you have to be an autistic weirdo in order to understand all this nerdy shit, which most women are not. They have empathy though, which sometimes is enough. Imagine saying this in a wokie corporation meeting. You would be kicked out of the continent.

@Elliott it is true that with this post I meant progressive people not the left, but people perceive the left as progressive, so it works. But it is a flaw in our culture. ChatGPT: "Not all left-wing politics are progressive. Many left-wing groups prioritize economic issues over cultural progressivism, and some even resist modern progressive values. The "new left" (progressive left) and "old left" (traditional socialist left) sometimes clash over priorities."

Airports offer services, roads are products and service. It is also about distribution of power. More state power, more socialism. More private power, more capitalism. Those who own/decide how capital flows own the power. Money=power.
