Leo's Blog Discussion Mega-Thread

@Leo Gura  I think you should slow down a bit with the blog posts, I used to love new posts and would watch the videos to the end because your post were unique each time and dispersed. Now its more, but I almost skipped half what you posted this year.

Your loss if you skipped over the posts they're incredible.

Your laziness is not my problem

I got too much stuff to post and not enough days.

Going thru content now! I'm behind .. thanks for the frequent post (supplements the full episodes well).

The Musk thing is pretty blatant when you think about. Why does repopulating the earth require Musk specifically to breed exactly? Surely it would be more effective to just sponsor a bunch of families to have kids. Mormon polygamy just seems like an elaborate rationalizes for having a harem and sort of mini-cult essentially.

Cake is yummy though.

A narcissist needs it to be him.

I think Elon is into eugenics if I am not mistaken?

Probably believes he is spreading his superior genes. Wiping out other races by breeding away weakness.

He could also have a huge impregnation fetish (ngl I think both could be true).

I think this thinking is endemic among the silicon valley elites 

[Hayato]

Isn't the term "conspiracy theory" just a thought stopping cliché?

Elon doesn’t want to father more children. He has to. For all of us. It’s not pleasure, it’s sacrifice. While the rest of us squander time on hobbies and Netflix, Elon is out there, tirelessly dipping his dick, impregnating the future.

He’s not just building rockets. He’s building humanity, one personal reproductive mission at a time. Call it what you want. He calls it a legacy payload.

So first Leo says that martial arts fans have a low level of consciousness, and then he says if you're a martial arts fan, this movie is for you. Is that some kind of test?

Well to my defense, I don’t watch them all because I don’t want to be lazy and waste too much time watching videos form the blog. 

But I can come back and watch them later I guess.

Keep on rolling Leo. The Late quote about scientific method is super on time and match my morning small debate with a epistemic scondrel who asked me about truth and when I told him the truth " You are just dreaming " he came to me with bullshit Quantum theory of Particle and Wave yadayada. No time to waste with ignoramus.

To comment on Leo’s post about fighting. People can get into fighting because of natural high testosterone. For me fighting is like dancing. It is an art form and a psychological game like chess.

Well, there is a huge difference between conspiracy theories and seriously investigating a possible conspiracy; that's what serious investigative journalism does. What people usually do is just plain fantasy fueled by biases, zero rigor, and commitment to the truth.

Which is dead/dying. There is a serious decline in quality investigative journalists, coupled with most information channels (IE internet) being flooded with turds of misinformation. Budgets for it shrinking... It's a sad state of affairs. 

Makes you question if these conspiracy theories would have half their momentum if information and investigation was quality. Instead the layman is left to do their own probing and make their own conclusions...

Sigh.

If mental health problems werent rising in first world countries, I Might get you were refering to the 'spiritually' Sick.

Peter Ralston also kinda dislikes mental illness.

Of course not Connor McGregor. But why use the word 'sick'?

You are projecting your stuff on what I said.

That post is not about mental illness.

@Leo Gura

I resonate with your blog post about the corruption of the UFC. But there is something higher and deeper to my fascination to mix martial arts and fighting, not just violence but a primal instinctive killer intelligence. A hyper focus on body awareness and over coming a difficult and challenging situation such as a highly trained and skilled fighter trying to take me out. I love studying the art and technical skills of a fighter, how they move, footwork, punch mechanics and elusive defense. I don't personally look at it the way you point out however I can see how mainly most people, fighters and organizations come from this macho, violent, iideological frame. It is very corrupt, but I sus out all the bullshit and focus specifically on studying fights, the best fighters mentalities, historical fights, skills and details of the science and art of boxing and fighting. I strictly love the artistry and mastery of fighting, everything else is distraction and corruption like you rightly point out. Even great fighters fall into these traps. I grew up watching historical fighters from the 20th century and it really inspires me how people including ourselves can rise to the occasion, perform beautifully skillwise and overcome adversity. Like the marathon monks of mount Japan. What are your thoughts Leo 🦁
