Practicing more love in life in general.

   What are your thoughts on the latest video Leo released?

   I'm tending to agree more with that video than less. However if I was being motivational and talking about the good life, and somebody tells me their satisfied with their life currently, despite having their job as a 9-5, in a career they semi want, with simple relationships with friends, family and few dates here and there, having one or two hobbies and a simple mediocre lifestyle. I would tend not to argue with that person. Reason being is that I can see that some people are built for such a life, and don't mind, and because of that we're left with some wiggle room to improve in our lives due to there being no intense demand for such a life.

I don't get some of the moral judgements in the video. A couple of times Leo puts down perceived negative activities like trolling or food, sex, porn. At one point he compares spending your time trolling online to stabbing a knife through God's heart.

I think God appreciates a truly masterful troll. If you love trolling people, I think you should train and learn from the top trolls out there, and be the best god damn troll you can be.

Why can't gangsters and mafia bosses operate from a place of love? You don't think Al Capone or Pablo Escobar loved their lifestyle, even while escaping their mansion through secret underground tunnels to evade authorities, or having a shootout with police, or breaking someone's kneecaps? They love the action, the risk, the high stakes, and the rewards that come with it.

Isn't making the world's most sophisticated money laundering operation an expression of your full creative potential? What if that's what's most meaningful to you? Why can't an ambition to be the world's #1 supervillain or build the world's largest criminal empire come from a love of life? If you are truly psychopathic (or even just think what you're doing is righteous, maybe you see it as a Robin Hood type of situation) and there is 0 internal moral struggle over it, what's the problem with it?

   Leo's moral judgments would put Eminem to shame

   I think he was specifically targeting the misuse of trolling, food, sex, porn, fame, you know, all the low consciousness activities. Certainly with enough skill and intention somebody can make something good out of it, but it might be that most people screw up along the way, that they become shallow, thus it's like stabbing god in the heart.

   Yes, GOD, and the devil, appreciates a masterful troll. Look at Eminem, the rap god, lyrical and musical genius that can destroy people with words. Brilliant display of skills. Mr. Girl too, trolling intentionally to spark conversations that become deep and lead to rabbit holes unexplored.

   Yes, Although this largely depends on one's value systems, cognitive and moral development, psyche and ego development, personality traits, states of consciousness and life experiences, on the absolute level this is acceptable to God. On the relative level though, we are subjected to dualities and trialities that make the relativity of creations and destructions more consequential and therefore must be managed such that we survive at the end of it all, and from this struggle we gain knowledge of what's good and evil, what's short term versus long term harms, and manage these accordingly or perish.

   Yes, in the perspective of someone from a stage red values system and worldview, they could say to you this is their form of highest love, except in such a case it's very common for a person to distort that spiritual truth/insight and conflate it for their own god superiority complex and melomaniac desires, which ultimately leads to their downfall sooner or later, which is recorded for posterity and to be learnt for the future well.

   As a motivational video, it's good. Another point though which I felt wasn't addressed adequately in the video, was the duality between a life purpose, or leading a passionate charged life, versus a mediocre, simple, minimalistic life. He over focused on the bad aspects of a simple life style, and skipped the fact that if it weren't for such a lifestyle to be this common, that there wouldn't be room for a charged lifestyle. Because everybody either lacked enough intent, attention, and perseverance, that it made a self actualized life possible. What if everybody stopped living mediocre, and all went after a charged lifestyle, all at once? That shocking increase for such a life, high demand would make it even more competitive and create high barriers of entry to live such a life, and conversely almost all the basic functions of society that need some people to be in job roles for, that would normally make most people's lives more convenient, would become far harder because almost all the human resources are now going after a life purpose and charged way of life. So, counter intuitively, if all the commons went after such a life, it'll make life that much harder for most and some, so this is why it has to be a few or some of the majority to go after a life, and most must temporarily life a simple, mediocre life for the sake of the some and few to go after a higher quality and charged life.
