02.02.2026 23:06 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The roots of this issue lie in the Neolithic, when humanity fell into endemic warfare and slavery; that has made indelible marks in our genes and cultures. It's not a paradigm, it's who we are. Few see this; most prefer to imagine we are basically good.

31.01.2026 22:40 β π 2 π 2 π¬ 1 π 0Btw, I'm an amateur philosopher at work on "empirical metaphysics," which is derived from scholarly work in the human and natural sciences. See my essays for context on the comment above.
31.01.2026 22:33 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Note: all cultures fabricate "truths" and "falsehoods" which do not rest on empirical foundations. Our own culture is shockingly untethered from (pre)historical, biophysical, and super-physical reality. Indeed civilization has been drifting away from ground truth, for millennia.
31.01.2026 22:33 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The future we actually got hasn't fully arrived yet: severe & rapid population crash, deurbanization, decentralization, end of global supply chain, loss of mass market digital tech. (This is the consensus of academics working in relevant fields since the 1970s.)
30.01.2026 22:58 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Clear evidence for intelligence need not suggest its nature or origin, besides "not human". Skepticism is necessary for investigations of individual cases. But it's very clear that the prolific debunkers are working an agenda, likely for an agency.
30.01.2026 22:47 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Do you really believe there's no credible evidence for NHI? If not, why post works of disinfo?
30.01.2026 01:43 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Meaning you don't perceive an intent to deceive?
I do, because simply scratching the surface of LLMs quickly reveals that the hype/concern is unjustified.
Dr. Penberthy has the best ghost story ever, about her great-grandfather intervening from the other side to rescue her mother from drowning!

29.01.2026 05:23 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Appreciations for your ground-breaking work! NDEs are essential data for any sort of empirical metaphysics :)
29.01.2026 04:49 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The (rather better) alternative is to explore the overwhelming data re super-physical phenomena documented by scholars and scientists over decades. This underpins "empirical metaphysics," which is my work.

My ego...
loves itself for the wrong reasons,
and hates itself for the wrong reasons.
(micro-insight from meditation :)
Most thinkers loathe this essential fact,
because the list of inaccessible insights is so very long.
I gather you haven't found any of the scholarly work on native American shamans! This article only touches on shamanic practice, but it would help orient you :)

25.01.2026 02:09 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Per the scholars who've looked most closely at the meta-crisis, e.g. William Rees and James Hansen, it's clear that civilization raced off the cliff decades ago. There are now no practical ways to avoid large-scale population collapse and obliteration of the global supply chain by 2050.

Reality is evidentially a mix of magical and horrifying features. It feels "unsatisfying" whenever sociopolitical priorities demand such an impression be fabricated.
I had imagined that ppl who'd been expecting something like TMTP would come out of the woodwork and help make it a success, alas :'( What org wouldn't want a direct way to reach its members/customers?!
20.01.2026 18:35 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The evidence that consciousness is not tied to the body is overwhelming, so why would freedom in decisions be confined by physics? Our physics isn't even complete, nor wholly accurate, for gosh sakes.
20.01.2026 04:08 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Trouble is that today's 'sensible' is the previous generation's 'delusional' ;-) And we've been on that path for thousands of years...
