  1. " Lets suppose that you were able every night to dream any dream you wanted to dream, and you would naturally as you began on this adventure of dreams, you would fulfill all your wishes. You would have every kind of pleasure, you see, and after several nights you would say, “well that was pretty great.” But now lets have a surprise, lets have a dream which isn’t under control. Well something is going to happen to me that i don’t know what it’s gonna be. Then you would get more and more adventurous, and you would make further and further out gambles as to what you would dream, and finally you would dream where you are now. "

  3. Hi @s p pack Welcome to the board, Welcome to posting. It would have been light-years more preferable, had you sourced SMTHNG, ANYTHING... but at least I had the chance to read up on the REAL story for myself... "Lauren Southern & Stefan Molyneux Granted Entry into Australia and New Zealand" [...] "Both Southern and Molyneux it was confirmed by Axiomatic Events today had their 408 visa applications approved." from here (The Unshackeled) Aaaand...

  6. Peace is a good thing (imo), though I understand you even less... sorry. I'm happy to revisit, had you changed your mind.
  7. This looks presumptuous to me. Though it's possible you're right. (unless you were capable of mind reading) One way of helping me see your point could be (could have been) if you (had) shared what YOU thought regarding your interpretations of his comments & posts (providing reasoned arguments) That doesn't sound very pleasant. Any suggestions?
  8. Thanks, though don't see the point of it... , given that I had done my homework (explained earlier) for that subject / if I'm interested in someone I follow up with the key references, connecting arguments. Do you think by insulting you can have a higher efficiency at changing my mind (don't worry, I'm not offended or anything silly regarding your first response)? Is it possible that for some reason you demonstrated an un-proportional and unreasonable emotional response and that might be beneficial for you to look at why that was? ps. - Is it possible that we weren't even talking about the same person (I'm wondering)? As in: Did you mean Stefan by saying "Steve" ?
  9. Did I? How so? Sorry but don't see why what you're claiming is. (to help you further get the meaning of my first post->) When I stumbled upon FDR, I so did quite a few opposition as well. The reason why I decided to seek out more content from FDR then, was because all of the arguments presented in-front-of-me to veer me away from FDR fell flat (to put it mildly). Dunno how other 'thinkers' evaluate but that's how it went for me in a nutshell. Additionally: Do you think about whether you had looked at 'both sides of the coin' objectively? Or is it rather akin to an esthetic preference, in which case that's fine with me... I like strachatella flavour over raspberry. (Respectfully [still], so that you see my meaning better)
  10. Well, if people have free-will and choose to think for themselves, you shouldn't worry about that. Otherwise, why bother. p.s. Cautioning someone with a capacity to think usually (/actually) induces a stronger curiosity and more meticulous evaluation, which is overall a greater benefit, wouldn't you agree?
  11. Hi thinkers and alike, The following is an excerpt from: 'BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF EXTREMELY LOW FREQUENCY ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS: A REVIEW' by ANDREW A. MARINO and ROBERT O. BECKER [...] "In the most thorough study of the phenomenon, Wever[56-58] isolated human subjects in underground bunkers for 3-8 weeks and measured their temperature and activity circadian rhythms. He found that subjects living in a shielded bunker exhibit periodicities in body temperature significantly different from those of subjects living in a non-shielded bunker. He also reported that desynchronization between the two rhythms occurred only in the shielded bunker. Both effects ceased when an artificial electric field of 0.025 v/cm at 10 Hz was applied, indicating that the total ambient electromagnetic environment on the one hand and the artificial field on the other influence human circadian rhythms similarly in the respects investigated. Altman and Soltau[59] exposed guinea pigs to 2.4 v/cm at 10 Hz and maintained parallel groups under Faraday conditions and under normal ambient conditions. They found that shielding produced changes in the hematocrit and the distribution of blood proteins but that both parameters returned to normal in the presence of the artificially applied field. Lang[60] exposed mice to 35 v/cm at 10 Hz and maintained parallel groups under Faraday conditions and under normal ambient conditions. Shielding produced changes in body water content, blood hemoglobin, and blood sodium levels. The effects were eliminated following exposure to the artificial electric field." [...] Rütger Wever R.

  12. @ticketyboo Do you know the exact origin of the op's referring to (I don't recall it as of yet).
  13. Thanks for the clarification. I can see now how the title is to mock, to be a satire rather than a rational claim. It's also made me think about whether colder environments offered less harsh living circumstances, and why the majority of the world's population lives in coastal regions.

  15. May I suggest you used the search function here, checked the grouped videos on the YT channel (playlists), read the book titled 'Practical Anarchy' by Stefan Molyneux. Plus the references I already gave will have you pointed in the direction of more connecting topics, most likely even regarding the "[...] and other arguments" too. It's also possible, others will research for you, do the work for you... it's possible. This is as far as I'm willing to go here and now. Have a good one, Barnsley

  17. Hi @cyberforester [Podcast] 4139 - Question 3: [1:04 :05] I'm very sorry, that sounds like you and your siblings wished things were different. It's totally understandable if my question isn't welcome by you, I saw your post was aimed at Stefan Molyneux. However if you don't mind me asking... 'Actions speak louder than words.' If he "so loved his children and his grand children" but in action expressed the diametrically opposite, is it possible that your definition of love is different from what would mean a person caring truly for someone? I'm sorry but I can't get past this and see it sticking out, a contradiction where two opposite things are being called the same thing. As in: 'a lush desert'. (Again, please accept my sympathies for the hardships your father's choices caused for you and your families.) Barnsley
  18. Supplementary: As of the movie overall, 'splinters' (for me) were a few characters' bad acting (unnatural), where directing sucked (way more time on PC stuff ocassionally than philosophy and action), writing (hyper-oversimplification in general)at times... but if you can overlook those...definitely worth a watch, can be a good conversation starter. I've picked up on these (don't remember the order): Assured Mutual Destruction Plato's Cave Trolley Problem (image at the beginning) Logical Reasoning vs. Utilitarian perspective Black Swan Theory ('Wackopedia' version) Infinite Monkey Theorem Omnipotence Mob mentality ...more I probably missed, won't detail the PC stuff (meh).

  23. Hi @CygniAustralis A pleasant surprise... Don't worry, I understand you had higher priorities, more, important things to tend to... sure. I hope you did/do, though some analogous or symmetrical allegory certainty could have made me be more certain (,probably). All-right. Is it fair to say that when some people (like your "MIL") seem to be acting more proactively in the vicinity of others (such as yourself) that more likely than not, suggests they prefer to be helped in making decisions, some of which on their own would maybe not have manifested if they had been left to their own devices? (Cynical smirk) Yep. Seen that, been there with people. I even had to journal about it myself (Although the research I did parallel into C-Biasies, made it doubly rewarding). A loop inducing phenomenon in most cases, very easy to fall into when lacking self-awareness, avoidance is stronger than curiosity. What are?... What do you think about the secondary gains, the unspoken but evident gains resulting from it... ? a. for him b. for her c. for the daughter (...if there are, there might be none for some of those people ... these are open ended questions, helping me see what you are seeing, understand you better.) What are/is the most prominent 'theme', or recurring syllogism she uses to describe it? (Internalised narratives or 'myths' are key to breaking down the dynamic, I think. As in: ->ie. - she expressed helplessness, unable to affect those around / can't enter into people's guarded personal 'zone' = akin to seeing them being distant and entirely autonomous, completely independent?...etc. variations I haven't thought of.) Yes. Makes sense. It's only but the surface however in my estimation. As in: What does she think it would bring about, other than the conflict? What is really at the 'end of the road' that her mind's eye is looking at, that she's terrified of, the key ingredient in her choosing 'not shaking the bee-hive', do you think? Could it have been in-grained in her from her past history? (the reason why I'm asking is 'cause I know very few people who are simultaneously open to self-knowledge, yet 'carry decades old logs of dead-weight'... you'll tell me, it's just a hunch+exp.) I sort of agree with you from a point of suspension. There's a plethora of people that from a far-off perspective, from a superficial assessment seem to be in circumstances of 'undeserving proportions', lacking/indulging in qualities 'unfairly'... the reason for my multiple use of quotations is because when I put my 'objective-thinking-hat' on, usually the correlations equalise within surprisingly reasonable and humanistic standards. Probably you had the experience of seeing one through the glasses of 'it takes one to know another'. After having managed a situation yourself, became more aware of its presence in others simply because of a better insight on the mechanics. All I'm trying to say with this is that perhaps you being on the 'can't conceive side of things' is due to lack of information from the souce, maybe something you haven't internalised yourself and that's why it looks 'foreign'. Hence my earlier highlighting... It's an enormous feat to have achieved the capacity to 'play devil's advocate' without steering off the path of neutral exploration, yet the better it's done, the fuller picture the 'explorer' can discover. (Um... not wanting to explain stuff you already might know... , probably you're more aware than me of the procedures when 'diving in', psych. degree and all... Just wanted to circle back a bit.) I'm glad... that was my aim

  25. Hi, I'm surprised at your ask and one particular wording such as "[...] and other arguments". I mean, there are plenty, many, a lot of references, especially in debates (Wordsalad Chef - Peter Joseph springs to mind... sorry, can't help it) to what are the direct consequences of outsourcing responsibility, stealing from future generations... etc. As of "[...]... and other arguments", we both can see that it would have been better, had you been more specific. Out of curiosity, have you been listening frequently, have you gone through some of the more consistential presentations, such as "The Truth About: The Fall of Rome"? This is a long shot... Is there any specific reason as to why you would be interested? Maybe a person you're hoping to present solid arguments to...?
