There are many points of view that one can maintain of one aspect of reality.

But in reality all POVs are simultaneously interwoven into a complex web, such that the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts.

The fundamental problem is that no human being is aware of the entire system.

There are experts in one small niche and they often hyper specialists in that niche.

This obviously leads to a very partial picture of reality as a whole.

One of the examples we were discussing in the podcast was about how people perceive religion.

Religion is made for manipulating and controlling the masses. (SD orange)

Religion gives stability, order and structure to society.
(SD blue)

Religion is a social construct.
(SD green)

Religion is for meant for providing solace, comfort and socialising.

Religions are the ideological misrepresentation of deep truths of nature, ie the nature of God, of which the founders had a direct realisation.

There are a multitude of ways at which people perceive religion.

All perspectives contains some amount of truth to them.

Now reality looks and feels dumb to you when you get hung up over any one interpretations of reality, while several exist which all contains some amount of truth.

This is what I mean when I say reality is complex.

"Intuition is like a shy hot girl" 😂😂😂😂😂

I do not take anything on faith.
I always for experientially directly verifying everything for myself.

But just because you can't experience it dosen't mean it's false.

For such things you need to be open to it.

Still it's not taking it on faith.

But there is a fine between taking it on faith and being open to something being true.

My virtues include:

Appreciation for complexity.
Studying the big picture.

Suggesting actual solutions that actually work.
(Not mental masturbation)

Noone should have any existential crisis.

Understanding how Reality works and answering all philosophical questions.

Making sense of one small situation and cohesively fixing it with the big picture, like a huge jigsaw puzzle.

Abstracting everything and understanding it in a way that is complete. Making tautological arguments that is true for certain.



I think this summarises my virtues that I value the most.

Reverse justifications (Repost)

People do not objectively study, analyse nor think about reality and finally arrive at a final conclusion.

Instead they fix what they want to arrive at. After the conclusion is fixed, they go in search for how can they rationalise or justify their claim.

But you see the problem here?

Reality is so fucking huge that you will always find data supporting a particular claim.

What you should actually do is to observe reality first, then derive a conclusion.

For Eg:

1)

Conservatives first fix the idea that abortion is evil and bad. Then they go on to justify why they are right. They truly don't want to look at the issue. They have already fixed their position and justify it like they are running a script.

2) Same with Vaccine Debate.

3) People choosing political parties.

People first choose to support Trump. Then they look for arguments for why he is the best human being in the history of the universe.😌

Instead what they should do is to genuinely look at the state of American politics, study history, look what needs to be done, and vote for the correct candidate,

which of course maybe Trump or Biden.

But almost nobody does that.

This is why things fuck up all the time.

I am not judging you standing from a pedestal.

I myself do this quite a lot.

But the problem is that, you will only get railed when you get into an honest intellectual discussion.

Such kind of prejudices only has any place in Ideological battles.

If you genuinely want to get to the bottom of reality, you should be willing to let of pre judices and rationalising it like a stupid ass.

Millenials own less than 6% of the total wealth in the United States.

This is the same country that celebrates individual freedom and liberty, and pull yourself up by the bootstrap mentality.

But still, despite being more educated, computer literate, having more college degree, literally more IQ...they are never going to do better than out of touch boomers.

The wealth you are able to make is tightly dependent upon the time & country you are born, family wealth, etc.

Wealth transfer is largely generational.

This is not to hate or breed victim mentality.

I am merely describing things so that you don't you are aware of the big picture.

The major point being if the situation is not dealt with politically, wealth inequality will lead to a major collapse.

Imagine how much wealth will gen z will own?

Most of it is going to the wealth they inherit.

Privilege is real.

With that said, use most of what already have.

"If all the wealth in the world was equally redistributed, as time passes on, the people who are at the top right now, will again come on top."

This is said so as to point out that the people at the top got their by pure hardwork and their skill, while the masses are lazy and stupid.

This is a myth.

If wealth was redistributed, the younger generation will outsmart the oldies and we will see a new establishment.

In a meritocracy, no one should inherit anything, because anyway you will achieve everything with your inborn capabilities.

In reality the rich established people never would agree to this. But they will still say they hardworked their way to success although almost 100% of the time, it was a combination of

1) Generational wealth
2) Government support
3) Fluke luck

By which people got super successful. (Billionares)

To a human it's impossible to provide pure value of 10M+...

The other possible explanation is that they got it by manipulating & gaming the system. (Not by providing value)

LordPsycho said something like this:

"Winners are cheaters.

There is no exception to this rule."

So what is the point Bob?

Am I telling you to hate the rich establishment elites?

No.

The point is to understand the current economic and political situation.

The wealth inequality will have huge ramifications that most people will simply react to after being fed the American Right Wing propaganda, that just take ownership and responsibility and everything shall fall into place.

Data clearly show otherwise.

I don't know when will I be actively back on twitter.

Whenever I do, I plan to change the direction of my content.

It will be highly technical and even more analytic in nature.

I will be using even more surveys, studies and plan to keep myself detached from my follower counts.

Still, I will post content that's related to success so as to not forget the pragmatic aspects of life which is as equally as important as the spiritual aspects.

_Quick Overview of Spiral Dynamics_

Spiral dynamics is a model developed in the field of developmental psychology.

• Human beings are at different stages of development.

• Each stage has it's own behaviours, values, worldviews, ideas, beliefs etc

• All humans beings pass through all these stages at some point in our lives.
It's impossible to skip stages.

• All stages has it's own positives and traps associated with is.

You can fuck up at any stage, and you can embody the good parts of any stage as well.

• The SD stages oscillate between individualistic and collectivist.

If one stage is individualist, the next stage will be collectivist, and vice versa.

• Each stage is colour coded.

• Higer the stage, the larger your sense of identification.

• Lower stage does NOT mean bad. There are valuable things at all stages

•Beware of taking this model and trying to judge or pigeon hole people. This model can help explain a lot of things in this world, but as any other model it has its own limitations.

A real philosopher is never undeniably certain that they are correct; they always wonder if they could be wrong.

Fools on the other hand are always sure they are right; they have no doubt in their mind and think that everyone else is stupid.

Powerful problem-solving technique: Transform a problem whose solution you don't know to a problem that you can solve. I saw it in the context of mathematical proofs but it applies everywhere.

The things that I say here are more practical and pragmatic than

"work out in the gym and lift weights"

Except that I say more things.

You have to read and think deep enough to connect the dots.

There is lots of valuable insights to be gained and understood here.

People who glorify climbing the corporate ladder don't know that they are the same as trained dogs jumping through hoops laid out by someone else.

Every time you jump through it, they reward you with a treat, and you are happy wagging your tail asking for more hoops. ⭕🐕

If you find hard to understand this, you are probably stage orange or below.

People are not dumb.

Everyone is communicating deep radical wisdom.

But their perspective and paradigms are limited.
They just don't have enough training or data to make the correct decisions.

Everyone is noble from their perspective, whether you, or Hitler, or a criminal psychopath.

Dominance hierarchy is a cringe concept.

With it's pointy structure, someone's going to hurt someone.

Either people who are "below" will unite and fuck up the top or the top will suppress the shit out of the bottom.

I don't think anything as rigid as dominance hierarchy sustains in the long term.

Because of it's extremely rigid laws and structure, it becomes immune to evolution and hence, it becomes irrelevant.

This might sound BS to you but FYI, that's how much you've been brainwashed by the "dark triad" narrative.

"But Mesh, if not dominance hierarchy, then what?"

First of all, remove the concept of being "above" certain people.

Remove the need to dominate.

It's unnecessary. I agree your life hasn't been easy but that doesn't mean that you have to sacrifice your soul to unnecessary darkness.

Instead of being in the top of the dominance hierarchy, I want you to create the best possible ecosystem around your purpose.

Don't be at the top, be at the center of everything.

Get connected to everything. Influence every little thing around you anyway you can.

People shouldn't consider you are at the top, they should consider that you are at the center. Controlling everything. Rather than controlling, managing.

People must realize that you're not dominating them but rather, by influencing their ecosystem in a positive way, you're making their life better.

Chances of them revolting against you? Virtually zero.

Chances of you losing your power? Virtually zero.

Because people realize that you're the connecting thread to everything their life depends on.

Hierarchies will crumble under the evolution. Because nature itself do not have the hierarchies, it has ecosystems.

Personally, you must make yourself better and get in the position where you're indirectly at the top.

But when it comes to people, become one with them. How are you supposed to understand your kingdom if you're disconnected from it?

Do you want to get disconnected from the bottom or connected to them, understand them and improve their life?

Answers are obvious.

Reject hierarchies, embrace ecosystems.
