I cant resist the urge to nitpick. A mans wife and 2 children die in a car crash. I would try and talk the man out of it but I wouldn't physically stop him(assuming it wasn't a snap decision after he heard the news). People can get over intense lose so i'm not sure if it counts as "unhealable agony". Sometimes people want to quit. Is that really irrational? Maybe he doesn't want to deal with the pain and trauma. I wouldn't act in that way but it would be his choice and you cant keep someone under suicide watch forever.

It seems like you haven't even read any of my posts. I'm not recommending cocaine use to non drug users. I am saying if your already a drug addict and use caffeine there are alternatives that in many cases are more effective, Daily cocaine use is not healthy. Daily caffeine use is not healthy. I have not claimed cocaine use is a non self-destructive behavior and I have not claimed anything else in your post. The point of the post in to point out the hypocrisy of caffeine addicts and to make the claim that cocaine is a better drug for occasional energy boosts(better not meaning non-self destructive). Coke provides more energy and you don't get the same afternoon crash with small doses. Cocaine is demonized as the destroyer of lives when in reality it can be used very safely but same as with anything it can be abused as well. I'm not claiming these are the reasons cocaine should be legal. I'm trying to point out some stuff that is not widely known or accepted.

The video and my post is talking about people who use caffeine everyday or multiply times a day. If that's not you then what i'm saying does not apply. Low doses of coke are very similar to caffeine. I'm not saying people should snort grams of coke a day. If you remember coca cola had mere milligrams of cocaine in it.Caffeine addicts who come down on occasional coke use is what irks me(I have spoken to tons). I don't think anyone should use caffeine or cocaine everyday but If you are going to use drugs to boost energy cocaine is an option that is in many cases more effective then caffeine. There is a lot of propaganda bout illegal drugs and i'm just trying to point it out.

What I am saying is the high from coke and coffee is very similar. Caffeine users are in denial that they are drug addicts just like coke users. they shouldn't speak out on Coke use until they confront their own addiction. Coke Does not disassociate you from reality like caffeine and coke is more effective.

American Dad is generally making fun of how fucked up the world is. The show isn't saying look how virtuous the characters are, its the opposite. A lot of the time comedy lets us talk about fucked up shit that were not comfortable talking about in normal life.

I know the feeling. When I was going to therapy the guy wanted me to keep a journal and every session he would read it and then keep the pages. I hated it. I can only journal if its just for me.

);font-family:Verdana, tahoma, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px][/color] Today Adam uploaded a video talking about something that I have been saying for years. I was delighted to see this topic being covered. It always really irked me that people are so hypocritical about drugs. You have People who drink 2 or 3 cups of coffee a day and then they turn there nose up at other drug users. They think there is nothing wrong with their own addiction and claim others are unhealthy like wtf. Cocaine is a much better solution for occasional short term energy boosts. The come down on small amounts of coke is much better than with coffee and the energy boost is much greater. I just thought I would share this seeing as its not widely known. Hopefully the caffeine addicts will think twice about picking on other people who use drugs.

If your lonely and wanted to talk with someone my skype is nyax321.

ecigs don't slowly kill you so whats the point?

Well we agree that losing your job over a spanking debate is pretty unlikely so im not sure how much of an issue that would be (depends on management I guess). I also wanted to point out that just because everyone is on the pro spanking side of the debate we cant make a snap judgment that they are evil. What if they were spanked as children and all their life they were told it was a good thing? By speaking up you find the people willing to change(atleast we can be certain of it once we have presented the arguments). It may be a flip of a coin or worse but if there is even a chance you can make a difference isnt it worth it? If you speak up now some assholes know not to bring up spanking around you and you can get on with your job. I think there is a strong case to be made for speaking up.

Do you think social ostracism could be put in the advantage column? Wouldnt not socializing with evil people be a positive force in your life? I'm curious to know where you get the idea that its very unlikely you can make a difference in someones life? Do you speak out agiasnt evil whenever it presents itself and always fail to make a difference? One advantage you missed is when you speak up the good people and the evil people are revealed to you. A lot of good people have been propagandized and the truth has never been presented to them.

Is there some rule about using the word "I" too many times? All I can offer you is the approach that worked for me(If you don't think its a good idea then don't listen to me). It may not work for you as I have clearly pointed out in my previous posts. Most enlighten people would feel diguested after hearing people talk about beating kids and then holding their tongue.Try speaking up and tell me how that feels? What about the amazing friends you can make by speaking up? What about all the cold blood reptiles you get to cut of out your life because you speak up? It might be worth a try. I don't think everyone should do exactly what I do but I have had great success and I want to share that success with people. In regards to the last line nathanm made a great post about the ambivalence of speaking up

When I started to live my values it was one of the biggest and greatest changes in my life. I wanted to share my experience in this thread so that people are aware that really amazing things can happen when you speak up in uncomfortable situations. It might help someone to know that its possible for their lives to actually improve in many ways by following their conscience. This thread is about speaking up in public about evil and that is what I have been sharing.

I am always willing and prepared to accept responsibility for my actions. You assume alot about my approach. I always speak out against evil (except if someone has a gun to my head or is going to put me in jail) and when I do the arguments are rooted in evidence and reason. I have exceptional verbal skills and I am quite good with verbal debates. I shame someone if we have had weeks if not months of conversations and they are unwillng to accept the truth. I have never in all my adult life been "trampled" for speaking up but maybe im just lucky. Is it possible that by saying you cant bring truth to a tribe of violent people your making an excuse not to live your principals? You are definitely not going to bring truth to them by sitting idly by. You will never know if people will accept truth unless you present them with it. If jay doesnt want to speak up thats his choice and it doesnt make him or anyone esle a bad person. Now If your goal is to change the world you really should in my opinion speak up. The voice of truth needs to be a lions roar not the squeak of a mouse. I know I have had wonderful success in my approach and it may work for others aswell but I cant be sure. Writing this post makes me think of all the times when I was a kid and no one did or even said anything to defend me agiasnt evil. It makes me sick. I think thats why I have a hard time understanding peoples reluctance to speak up. It also may be why I will always speak out agianst the evil in this world. If people claim to have certain values I would urge you to live them or atleast work on it so you can get to a point where you dont feel scared to.

How is the world ever going to change if good people hold thier tongues in the face of evil? I dont fully understand peoples reluctance in speaking up in these situations but In my opinion if you want to change things you owe it to yourself to speak up despite your discomfort. Does it really matter to you that some jackass is offended that your defending children? Whenever I speak up I feel extremely good afterwards regardless of the outcome of the conversation because I know I did what was right. Once you do start to speak out against violence it will attract good people to you despite what they may have previously believed. The truly evil will be repulsed by you and will know not to bring up certain topics around you because they know they will be publicly shamed. At my previous job no one would dare talk about spanking or religion in front of me and this made my time at work a lot more bearable. I work from home now but I made some really good friends at that job because of how openly I talked about these issues. A long time ago I asked myself if I wanted to dream about a better world or if I wanted to actually live in one. I think its a good question to ask yourself.

An interesing little article on the topic http://wildtruth.net/why-sex-is-inappropriate-for-most-people/

If I were you I would talk to the children not the mother. Let them know its not ok for their mom to hit them. Atleast that way they see someone in the world standing up for them. Depending how involved you want to get you could maybe let them know you are there to help if they ever want someone to talk to.

I would love to see Daniel Mackler back on the show. I have been reading stuff on his website and he has a lot of ideas that are very different from the mainstream. Some I agree with and some I don't.

Fucking brilliant
