You don't know what you are talking about. You are self-deceived, and you have yet to become conscious of what I have become conscious of (but only with my permission --- there is no fucking way that you can surpass me or get to my level. Immediately forget that arrogant BS).

Its not about trips; its about my permission. I will inform you when you manage to get there (if you behave correctly, and by that I just mean you acknowledge that Im more awake here than everyone in the universe).

I wonder what makes people not ask such basic questions as 'where's the video?' How come they take another's word for it and somehow miss simple stuff? It's a bit strange, and insidious. And this is just a very blatant case. I'm sure there are much more subtle cases where this occurs.

I also suspect that, as we speak, there are many people on the sidelines who think that this dynamic doesn't apply to them - that they have somehow transcended it.

Do you think people believe that Leo can turn into an alien or alien mouse?

 

......they don't

We all like to think that.

I mean, I like to pay attention to the teachings. I am curious to see in what ways I am "the devil". I do think at the end of the day is personal preference.

Wheter I can understand absolutely everything is beyond my control.

Yeah, and given how some people reacted to your question in that thread, that was also interesting.

Leo backed himself into a corner by creating a standard by which he can be held accountable (specifically related to that point), and it's clear that he doesn't give the slightest fuck about it and will imply that you're wrong for even attempting to hold him to his own words.

Hours and hours of ramblings about epistemology, integrity, maturity, self-deception, epistemic responsibility, and how scientists fall into the trap of infinitely delaying paradigm change—and then, when shit hits the fan, he can't embody or live by anything that he preaches about. 

" I'm Leo. I made some claims in the past, and I created a standard for myself. Now, should I acknowledge that I was wrong, or at the very least lower my credence in the belief that I can undergo such a transformation after years of failure? Naaah, let me choose the other option,where I label UnbornTao closed-minded for holding me to my own words, and then call it a day (like a mature, epistemically responsible, non-manipulative, 'truth is my highest virtue and value' guy). "

Some people here did not pick up on the significance of Leo's reaction to your question. His reaction shows that he doesn't have the spine or the integrity to acknowledge failure and be responsible for his own standards and his own word (especially when it comes to things he cares about -  like maintaining a special identity).

His reaction to your question simultaneously targets and undermines his epistemology, integrity, and his alleged deep care about what's true.

@zurew But he says again and again that he's also subject to selfishness. That's how serious it is.

You can't be God-like as long as you're surviving.

The thing about "feeling special" and all of that is just more trying to survive.

It is just a matter of perspective at the end. Saying "you're close-minded" is not an insult per se.

*Donald Trump voice* "Nobody knows more about epistemology than I do, yes it's true, it's really true. And if I'm wrong, one time I said I can be wrong, so that means I'm right".

Unironically what we're dealing with.
