  1. Not sure if green or just weird. Eric Andre is a madman.
  2. Go to a nude beach. Spend time with nude people . Being nude in a public place goes against social norms, and that will obviously upset a lot of people, both emotionally and morally (which is the point). It's an effective way to provoke people and show that you're not willing to conform with the system. It also doesn't harm anybody
  3. From an absolute perspective, everything is an illusion, but from a relative perspective, politics is still important for survival.
  4. I see you were inspired by Michael Brooks' extensive knowledge of policy. The dude was a walking library. He really opened my eyes on how little I know about the world of politics, especially internationally. This thread is a good contribution to his mission.
  5. It looked like somebody had copypasted your video about libertarianism
  6. Fair enough. I see now that I tend to do a bit too rough analysis of countries I'm not familiar with . Is this way of organizing society found in other countries than the KSA in the middle east?
  7. Can you explain why it's very purple? What qualities excludes it from blue?
  8. Apparently The Amazing Atheist's ass has experienced an alien invasion
  9. That was really well-made. 10/10 Man that really hit me . Yeah I agree, Abby Martin is a snack.
  10. @Nak Khid Don't derail the thread lol. Wait for the video, you obviously need it
  11. Why do people misunderstand Absolute Love?
  12. I would look at the adherence to Islam as a consequence of the level of development, not the other way around. Of course having a well-established religion creates a "temporal lag" in their development, but that is inevitable.
  13. If we're talking on a national level, Saudi Arabia is more red-blue. Purple-red would be something like ISIS. If there are no state laws present, no modern infrastructure or no allied states, then we're talking about purple-red tribal conquest. Saudia Arabia has modern infrastructure, state laws and allies. If we're talking on a demographical level, then sure - maybe some purple aswell.
  14. Musical innovator and virtuoso who has broken out of the classical stylistic boundaries of that genre. He also goes against the typical macho rockstar persona by embracing feminity and emotionality:
  15. It's OK if you don't see the overlap between parts of the Actualized.org community and the gaming community, but you don't have to be a dick about it. His death brought a surge of mental health awareness in that community, and you can appreciate that as an outsider if you care about global issues. Online communities are infact global communities, and initiatives like Dr. K's stream is much more impactful than say Leo's youtube channel in terms of outreach. Have some perspective.
  16. He was the first big streamer on Twitch, legendary World Of Warcraft player and loved by the community. It's like asking: "People die every second. Why do we have to care about the death of Michael Brooks?". He was also one of the first guests on Dr. K's stream, which introduced his mission of spreading mental health awareness to the community.
  17. That just means you haven't integrated those aspects of yourself properly,
  18. I want to get a better picture of what is really going on: How would you define the IDW (and the left) in terms of values? What beefs or main points of disagreement do you feel are most important? What does either side have to learn from each other? What are they both missing? The IDW would be people like Sam Harris, Eric Weinstein, Bret Weinstein, Jordan Peterson, Dave Rubin etc.. The left is vast, but to mention some people: Sam Seder, Michael Brooks (RIP), David Pakman, Kyle Kulinski, Vaush etc.. I'm also interested in especially Sam Harris' beef with Noam Chomsky (disagreements about foreign policy). What is really going on there? Is it a good example of this phenomena? Please sprinkle some SD into the analysis aswell
