Probably I think it started to hit me after my childhood friend got a kid and when this girl from school started appearing as a news anchor on TV

I think strong lights are very useful, but yes, it's dangerous to play with fire. In my experience, I don't know if it's because I just turned 25 and the pressure is finally catching up to me, but I feel that Tate really showed me that there is this fire inside me which I've neglected, and it's quite visceral; like I can feel it in my solar plexus, literally a fire, and it hurts. I can't just sit. I have to get up and act right now. That energy is immensely valueable, and it can be used or abused. Regardless, the worst thing is to not use it.

He is useful for shining a spotlight on neglected aspects of yourself. Sometimes you need a strong light to uncover the shadow For this forum, which is a Green-heavy place, I think these are some spotlights that some of us are playing with: Red: Andrew Tate Blue: Jordan Peterson Orange: Destiny Yellow: John Vervaeke, Bernardo Kastrup. If one values Tier 2, the challenge is to be vigilant and self-aware enough to consciously parse out the different values so that they don't fully dictate your life. That is what uncovering the shadow is about in the first place. But yes, there is always a risk, because sometimes the shadow is so neglected that it's a black hole which forces you to adopt an unhealthy view for a while, but that is just life.

That's why I said "might". Identifying with values that reflect the intellect or the heart might sometimes overshadow an impulsive side.
-
When you look at the most extreme people, you can be sure that they're employing some aspect that exists within yourself. You don't have to copy that person to recognize that impulse, but it's easy to deny that the impulse even exists.

Not many Tier 2 people are that rich.

or you might be suppressing aspects of yourself.

No, obviously not

You eat the same thing for breakfast, lunch and dinner? That sounds like a fine dinner (if you do 30-50% vegetables by weight), but for breakfast, I suggest upping fat intake, maybe cut the amount of fruits in half. I eat 3 eggs, a tiny amount of bread and half a kiwi (or other fruit equivalent) every morning, and if I eat more fruit, I can get anxious. Too much sugar and carbs can make you anxious by spiking blood sugar (same mechanism as adrenaline), and anxiety and paranoia are linked. Fats also stabilize blood sugar and are necessary for brain health (proteins as well). Because of my breakfast, I only need to eat every 6 hours or 3 meals a day (breakfast, dinner, leftovers). There is a potential health trade-off when you consider the cholesterol in eggs, but being anxious and chronically stressed is also bad for your health.

Nope. We're killing the species with this slippery slope of mental and physical fragility. When you stop putting stress on a muscle, it dies. An organism that doesn't move, dies. A heart that doesn't pump blood, dies. Since society has become so frictionless, we have to provide alternative sources for building resilience. Go to the gym regularly, don't eat cake, be social, take on responsibilities, set ambitious goals, build a skillset, apply yourself.

What's truly ironic is that iDubbbz stole that video idea from Jreg himself. -

Meditate consistently every day, no excuses. That is the most important thing. -

No you don't. Don't say that. -
True. The YMH house podcast with him wouldn't be so extremely funny if he wasn't somewhat likeable.

Andrew Tate's energy is me straight after doing my heaviest lifts in the gym. Complete, unbridled male energy. I actually generally like that kind of energy. It's just the unbalanced emphasis that comes from basing your entire worldview and being around it that I don't like.

I'm saying the hypothesis for why social contagion is a young female thing indicates that being affected by social acceptance could also be a young female thing. -
Carl-Richard replied to Scholar's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
In the video, social contagion in young females was explained by being strongly impacted by social validation from peers. Social acceptance would be social validation from the larger society. I think those would be correlated in some way. -

If social contagion supposedly only affects young teenage girls, then why can it not also be the same for acceptance for coming out? Child history of dysphoria assumes that they're willing to come out in the first place. The level of acceptance is still a factor, unless they're so young that they're unable to understand social roles or feel social pressures. -
Carl-Richard replied to Scholar's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I didn't feel that the numbers mentioned in the video indicated how much is social contagion vs. simply more acceptance around coming out (or some other factors). I think it's both, but we probably need better stats to parse out that distinction. -
Hahaha careful with that Law of Attraction, clearly that is going to happen too now
