J.L.W

So now my entire last post has gone down the rabbit hole. I modified it and off it's gone. (Sorry to bring this back).

There is definitely a cult like component to much of the liberal left. They openly state they are anti fact.

I tend to think we are living under a regime that does lean that way but is not all the way. For instance, there are a lot of things that if you talk about you will quietly disappear. Such as free energy, a lot of alternative medicine people have died recently and testifying against the Clintons ala Andrew Breitbart. Through whatever way it has happened, and it's partly through corporations, the government does control the narrative and it is most likely done through the threat of force. Although in most cases soft power i.e. threats to livelihood.

You seemed to think the examples I referred to in that post were mine, however, they were from Stefans video that I linked at the beginning of this thread. I have a lot of anxiety which slows me down. Some which is well deserved I think... I.e. a good survival sense, some of which is due to diabetic bloodsugar control which I am handling. I lose time in the morning because of this. I am making my organisation skill better but it is slow... I would not say this person is insincere. He would say that it is the ADHD that causes problems and I have seen and felt things from him that do suggest something is a little off sometimes, with the empathy etc. not that he is hiding but that something is actually "off". I didn't believe ADHD was a thing before he explained it. The subject is complicated by a trauma that I know he went through and the fact my friendship with him has had a few separations of late because of some of these things. Perhaps the stress and inability to deal with some of these things is a "dysfunctional" (?) personality breaking down and when he has put himself back together he will be different. I do think he has always wanted to improve. Yes, but that is not a problem. It might be, we have always both casually agreed I am a better manipulator than he is (because I'm paranoid) and may consider people are being like that, but he will probably be able to handle that and has a support system. But the "blindspot" is always the same, he thinks he can handle all things all the time and will never have any situation come along that will put him down in any way. I suspect money, for all the good things it gives, will be an additional stressor. But I may be wrong. I am not usually wrong though when it comes to peoples psychology. That sounds arrogant but it is basically what I have experienced. Also, I don't know how it will look if I am attempting to advise him on this area. There is a pattern here of me, legitimately or otherwise, wanting to "save" people from themselves. Yes I was being simplistic, and I don't know the real answer to this. There is no one that is good at music who has not practiced a whole lot I believe Malcolm Gladwell proved that but if you read around musical literature, biographies a while you begin to pick up this commonly held belief - or it may be a truth, that some people "have it" and some don't, that one of Dylans atheist biographers termed his "God Given" gift. Seems kind of mean but that is it. Kind of like how some are high IQ and some are not and that's just the way it is and can't change.

Ah online communication is very difficult it seems... Those examples (MASH etc.) were from Stefans video on the subject! My only one was that 'The Fray' song. It possibly is, however, I do have a lot of things to get on with and I have a tendency towards disorganisation. Also, I would naturally make up songs in the evening likely when I am relaxed and that's when I am interrupted. Well I can't comment on this with any education but, of my male friends I did have one that would make really penetrating jokes and... it was great fun to be fair. I used to think of him as 'the ego stripper'. Spending a few minutes with him and you'd definitely have a few 'unasked for insights'. Lol. But it turned out he didn't like that insensitive part of himself (he was low empathy in other ways) and is on ADHD medication now. This is another example like I was talking about in the other thread of that female tendency to bring guys down who are like that when you wouldn't think they would have the ability to, the guy was untouchable but one girl he connected with and had to separate from and his previously very powerful self was reduced to pieces. Anyway I digress. Yes it is. He is the kind of person that would give money out of what seems (and is at the time) like genuine goodness and then not realise that he subconsciously expected something back. (Not that I need money just that's how I think he is) Ideally of course it would not be an issue at all. It's all involved in "real life" anyway. Very often there is a pattern in our friendship of correctly knowing how he will react in a situation and he can't see it. Music is about three things, practice, practice, practice. Each repetition and you subconsciously get better at it. Change little bits to fit yourself etc.

Quite possibly. At the moment I am really concentrating on technique. I am practicing 'Hotel California' on guitar by Sungha Jung and a version I first heard was performed by Gabriello Quevedo. The technique seems to be very useful in making me feel better whereas the creation of music is a definitely good feel but is part of why I am trying to change my personal situation. If someone interrupts a person in that musical creating zone the come down is awful and it is not easy to return to the song. I made one up previously about my father and I'm not sure if I still have it I couldn't find it when I looked last. That 'The Fray' song I do seem to do quite well though, when sung with my own tone and rythm not trying to copy the original singer because that tone really doesn't suit me. It is a surprisingly hard song to cover that takes a lot of energy. On this subject: Stefans own explanation of this is extremely deep and long so I will have to summarise: He talks about how he has these 'archeological markers' in his head things he has 'remembered for many years' and not figured out until much later. One of these examples is the television show MASH: In a scene where the main character and doctor pouring concrete into a gun they joke it is "Comedy of the highest calibre". Then he explains that he was surrounded by people that were excessively deconstructionist and nihilistic and he realised their comedy was destructive, and the term 'caliber' and it being on a gun are important here The second is a older person who was a nasty person and people surrounding her did not want to lose out on a will so they effectively couldn't afford honour. -- This is interesting how relevant to me this is, I'm wondering how a friend is going to start relating when he gets money. Probably fine we've been friends for a long time but it is a thought. The third is... self explanatory: "I've always depended on the kindness of strangers", although Stefan explains he did not understand why people said this gave them the chills.

When I studied politics in University I thought about this for a long time, how we definitions of various things was part of the course. You have to of course define fascism as separate from tyranny, or dictatorship. I decided it is when the government controls the resources, behaviour and importantly... ideology of the country through propaganda. So in a free market democracy the media and government might be in lock step because they have individually come to their own conclusions. But if the State behind the scenes uses force to insist the mainstream works with them then that is propaganda. Fascism has a religious, or more specifically 'cult like' component.

So I did go out with him, that friend I referred to (the one with the relative) is not doing any socialising at the moment it seems. It is more often I go out with this guy in a group but today it was just the two of us. We watched a film, it was good, and I didn't say anything about the alcohol because, at the time, stupid as it is, I believed his reasons for things, (Which is what they do alcoholics, they offer very carefully thought out reasons), I don't really want to bring it up anyway, he is enmeshed now with a lot of people for whom this behaviour is normal, but because I didn't bring it up, I feel like a piece of me has died a little... Eep. The guy is basically functional though. I realise when looking back on this thread that I am not explaining things very well, or that I didn't in this thread. Perhaps steady practice of music and positive things happening elsewhere in my life is improving my ability to communicate a bit. I came back on here to report because... It is the thing you do in a conversation and, my feelings suddenly took over, which is not ideal I suppose. But this has almost became a personal therapy thread! We can thank Barn for that :). What I should have said in the first post were recounting Stefans experiences which would have made a bit more sense to the conversation and perhaps people would have got more what I was talking about if I did so. The short explanation seems like I am trying to justify something to myself I am not comfortable with, but it was really quite a genuine enthusiasm of the idea of relating with the subconscious. I might come back and do that, all in all I think it was basically positive to deal with this friend. The attachment to that song, and the feel of it not really laying off until I contacted that person might be a part of me, like a conscience-y type thing (wrong word but is the best I can do) that is sort of suffering with the bad feelings of that friend and how alcohol effected my father etc.

There is unfortunately a limit to how much I will go into personal experience on the first line there. Some areas that I am interested in are heavily female dominated and keyed to discussing personal perspectives and I hear their experiences. I do agree single motherhood is incentivised with the welfare state. If I didn't believe that what would I be doing here?

I don't agree with the assumption that MGTOW is this synthetic thing. It seems natural that so long as guys have some sort of sense of self worth, that they will not date girls that are too unpleasant, if girls are brainwashed and nasty enough some guys will tune out and there are a lot of young guys who have never heard of MGTOW that play computer games and don't think of women. I used to question these guys and found they had genuinely little interest in girls. So that's why I think it is an immune system response. The people that put a label on and say "I am MGTOW" are actually a miniscule part of the MGTOW movement.

On an earlier point. I do think single mothers in general are DEFINITELY socially shamed. This is their experience very explicitly and a big motivation for not getting pregnant too young. Although whether this is uniquely down to women shaming them is not clear. It is probably male movements that have lead to this. But I have seen women be unpleasant with other women, deservedly, where men were tied down by red tape and not really able to respond as they naturally would.

The evil of this group... I.e. media etc... It's like you have to be constantly reminded to even grip it.

Also I forgot the Romulans were Russian and the Ferenghi were a little Jewish. But a bit of a lopsided Jewish, and they soon become the comical characters.

Ha ha, that's messed up. Who would want to spend time with such people? There were a LOT of metaphors in DS9. The Jem Hadar seem a little like Islam, unthinking soldiers. The Cardassians a bit like the UK and or Germans with their strange obedience to authority. The Bajorans were the Irish this was back when the US was funding the IRA. The federation was obviousy the US/ EU. Sisko was awesome. I liken his connection with those spirits and how things went better when he was connected with them to a regular persons connection with their best selves. When I do music, regardless of what else is going on things seem to go a lot better.

I love DS9 have a lot to say on that!

If I was again "harrassed" by another absolutely gorgeous girl for three years again. Well, no I would handle it before it got to three years. Felt like I was going mad and no one would believe me if I complained.

No, much of my experience here I am describing is anecdotal. An example of this might be when dealing with fashion girls how afraid they are of each other verses how unconcerned they are about men. Little girls in the schoolyard perhaps. Or how girls decide that one of their number is a bit of a 'princess' and start behaving differently to her according to that. I think a lot of what women experience happens on this subtle abstract emotional level that is not easy to grip with facts and figures. But women and social shaming! When you ask how they do so I think it is with emotional disapproval for various things, after endless emotional discussion about everything, and I generally think workplace power structures are what upsets their social dynamic. The experience was what it was, I have had far worse things happen.

From what I have seen women are able to police one another and they can also be VICIOUS in a way that men really can't that much to a woman in my view, it can get seriously unpleasant but it does seem fairly undirected sometimes, not targeted to achieve a goal like a change in behaviour. I think men when it comes down to it always have a 'she needs to be looked after' button that never really goes away but women don't have that with other women. I think if the power relations changed women would police themselves more. That 'pride comes before the fall ' statement has happened both with me and others. True it is the choices we make BUT, life in my view just has a general "way" of getting to people with exactly the right "medicine". Personal examples, including of friends here seem... too personal. With me, I thought i could do just about anything and I met an intense young girl that showed me that was not the case. Other examples don't include a direct intention from girls to 'bring someone down' but have put a sharp stop to behaviour of being in control all the time with them and doing what you want.

I also think when society does return to some sort of health, and I have faith... That it will it will be men that take down MGTOW and women that will take down feminism. I do believe that there is a natural way we have of sorting out our own houses,

In my experience, with anyone who has this attitude for too long, life kind of bends their will. They end up having their will somewhat broken by an intense member of the "fairer sex" (snigger) or having to rely on them in lifes rough and tumble. Just a thought. Pride comes before the fall. I once thought i was all that at one time. By my earlier comment I mean if a girl has two guys in her life one is an MGTOW and one is a lout that will beat her and the MGTOW is not interested, then that is a social ill not a social good.

I am a type 1 diabetic. You mean some MGTOW types are turning on based women? Also, leaving women with only bad options.

Stefan did do a video of this and his response is to give it all up to the free market. Who knows? These are such big questions.

Bitchute: Bombards Body Language - Trump Cabinet Meeting Potential Economic Turmoil [Link] To summarise, no one at that table is confident about the economy. Also that Trump looks nervous because something economic may be "imminent". And... A possibly we could discuss how useful body language analysis is in life.
