No, but it wouldn't take much to flip it around.

The moment I realized I was in a cult was when people started to unite around fear, paranoia and suspicion.

Sure, but there are other reasons. It makes the conversations more casual and more likely to devolve into a cult. While anonymity has its bad sides, it also has good sides, like removing a lot of potentially harmful social dynamics.

Phuack this is my 9000th post.

Maybe if you hire some transcriptionists.

It's harder to moderate and no.

Speaking of mental clarity, I knocked my lamp over by backing into it with my ass, and it hit my keyboard and broke a key. Then I had to surgically transplant one of those plastic brackets underneath from another key that I don't use ;_;

It is

That doesn't change anything.

You're sometimes very intent on teaching people who are 5-10 years ahead of you in terms of spiritual practice.

If you don't believe Nahm is awake in some form or another, you have a long way to go.

IQ is like driving a Toyota. Psychedelics is like driving Noah's Ark. Two very different things.

I don't think I need to say much more.

Use the report function and you'll have it sorted.

Doxxing?

AH! You should've seen me the first year I discovered spirituality ?

"Trust me, I'm famous"

You don't. You don't.

I'm gonna unfollow my own thread :>

Look outside of your own perspective for a moment and see that neither the "high consciousness" people nor the trans people on this forum necessarily agree with you. You have taken your interpretation of a very contentious issue and made people's existence depend on it. I don't think that is how warning points should be used just in principle, let alone that it would eventually decimate the amount of people on here. Instead of using warning points to do that, you can concede some ground to the opposing side so that discussion is possible, and maybe you'll persuade some people in the process — you know — what Leo was actually talking about in that blog post. Threatening someone's account with the hope that they might agree with you is power abuse.

The "point" that is going too far is for example giving somebody warning points for merely stating what they think a woman or a man is. If it's not said with the intention to troll or offend, I think that is a no-go zone for warning points, and I saw you go into that zone. We should strive to keep the discussions informed by sensitivity, but that particular level of enforcement makes discussions impossible. At that level, discussion is only possible if everybody is already in agreement.

Allan Holdsworth was considered one of the best jazz fusion guitarists in the world. He was dirt poor virtually his whole life. All fame is not equal.

@Leo Gura As if it's possible to communicate God/non-duality.

Yup I'm certainly getting some energy from that video.
