Academics is the business of confusing people because it pays money. No interest in clarifying shit.

How should be the future of academia? We still need researchers and PhDs making breakthroughs on different kinds of fields.

We should strive to build initiatives like arxiv.org, sci-hub, open science methodology, citizen science (www.zooniverse.org/projects)

Less judgmental, more open to critics, more loving and less idiotic, caring for understanding and creativity over anything else, less rigid, epistemic driven, more accesible, less a dick measuring contest. But right now as it is is just a circus. All those things I mentioned requires authority to work and not just hippie leftists.

The people that make the breakthroughs go beyond academic rules. Even if they're part of academy, they're just exceptions and this is not encouraged from the inside. Anything that gets you closer to imagination should be encouraged, do they teach this in academy? No, it is just a pressure cooker and mindless imitation. They advocate for curiosity but in practice they produce the opposite effect.

No. Marketing is bullshit.

Leo do you recommend for business owners, after learning marketing skills, we transfer it to another employee and stop doing it?

Use your intelligence to figure out what the right course of action is.

The modern psychiatry business is one of the worst crimes done against humanity

I LOVE you all ❤️

In regards to quote #330 how do you begin to learn to love people you really despise and cannot remove from your social circle? I have two bosses who are some of the most low consciousness, manupulative, exploitive cu**s out there. I don't feel any affection whatsoever towards them and actually the very opposite, I wish I never had to deal with them. Their modus operandi and vibrational frequency is that fear and domination of their workers.

I have tried for the past few years to "love" them, put myself in their shoes, work with them, but after all this time all I have recieved is complete disregard, bullying and being taken advantage of. I don't find it it my heart to love them and given the chance will do everything in my power to rid myself of them. 

I know many people all around the world struggle with similar situations. What is the course of action here? I don't want to waste my time and energy trying to love such people that have done nothing but exploit and hurt others. 

I know that it's their journey, their trauma, put yourself in their shoes, see life from their perspective bla, bla bla. I can maybe relate to their stories, but I cannot find it it me to love them.

Can you make a video touching on the topic of mental disorders such as cluster b personalities and narcissism? Do you something on your booklist that clarify this stuff? It can be maddening. I've dove into therapist on YouTube specifically about gaslighting, manipulation, narscissm and BPD in people and relationships and this is something that can destroy your life especially when not mapped out. I would be interested in hearing your mind on this issue from a unique perspective.

1) Take responsibility for allowing this situation into your life.

2) Change your situation so that you aren't subject to low consciousness people.

In order to be God's conduit you must make yourself independent of corrupt devils.

Can you imagine God working for his boss Satan? NO! God would not put himself in that situation.

The issue here is, Why are you working for Satan when you could be working for God? Love does not mean to keep working for Satan, it means to muster the courage to quit Satan and work for God.

You are not being asked to love them. You are being asked to work for God.

Thank you for your message Leo. For a little background I actually work for an awesome company with incredible people doing great work for environmental protection. Unfortunately I'm working most of the time on a second site the company owns run by these two individuals about 4h away from the main company. It's just me and them up there + contractors which allows this type of abusive behavior to run rampant and unoticed.

Actions I've been taking the past two years I've been working there:

1. I document all incidents and write up incident reports.

2. I let the higher ups at the main company know of all instances of bad behavior so they are aware of the situation. They have asked I keep clear incident reports.

3. I have now raised issues several times with HR.

I am fighting back via the diplomatic means. However these two individuals in question are very entrenched where they are. They have their house on site and have lived there for the past 20 years. Their kids have grown up there. Most of all they are VERY useful and provide lots of value which makes it hard to get rid of them.

If things don't change (which they might as I do have full support from higher ups in the main company) I have plans to end my contract and leave before the end of 2026.

@LoneWonderer Good. Do what you can to mend the issue, and if that fails, look for greener pastures.

This can be an opportunity for you to find an even better niche for yourself in life.

On leo's blog post about the corruption of psychiatry: For someone who has OCD, and before treatment my life was hell, and was at my utmost dysfunction. No amount of philosophy could have ever helped me without taking the medications, which helped my brain refunction properly. I found his post about psychiatry, deeply concerning and untruthful. An illness is an illness, no amount of philosophy is going to help you, you need medications. 

@Leo Gura What do you think ?

Re-read the note in that post.

[Majed]

@Leo Gura I imagine other mental illnesses to feel the same. Like bipolar, depression, bpd, antisocial personality disorder, multiple personality disorder, schizophrenia... From what i've lived and suffered through, no amount of will or philosophy or proper living is going to affect your mental illness. Only medications will. Mental illness is just something outside the will of a human being. It's similar to your health issues leo, no amount of philosophy is gonna cure them, only proper medications, if you find them. 

[Vali2003]

@Majed What kind of OCD do you have and how did the medication change it? 

My girlfriend also had OCD but hers has sort of gone away/transitioned into an anxiety disorder.

I agree with you on Leo‘s blogpost.
