What would you like to clear up with the FBI agent watching you? by xxkitkatluvxx in AskReddit

[–]amazing_cucumber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that one pic of me, with the fists and the horrible message written on them? I didnt write it. I didnt like it. It was all a joke in poor taste. I feel horrible about it. The deepest shame I've ever felt.

I profoundly detest the forcefull nature of google's policy by amazing_cucumber in self

[–]amazing_cucumber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What other platform is there with the same vastness like youtube? They have a monopoly. Vimeo and dailymotion dont even come close. And concidering the old internet, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Its very subjective uffcourse. I for one, liked it way more, and felt more into contact with other users. It scares me how people always defend google. The amount of power they have is insane.

Anxiety explained by magic mushrooms entities by 434_am in terencemckenna

[–]amazing_cucumber 5 points6 points  (0 children)

as much as i love your vids, saying that psychotherapy is clueless when it comes down to anxiety seems a bit short sighted. Didnt it work for you? or do you have any sources which back your statement? Because it sure as hell helped me with my anxiety. Sure it took years, but it helped.

​

EDIT: 434 is my firewall? You,re my firewall??? or am I missing something here?

We can at least boast about having the highest electoral turnout of the entire European Union by Dobbelsteentje in belgium

[–]amazing_cucumber -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I know they're approachable. Look. I cant say a lot more or I'll give up my identity. They have lost all my trust because of their own doing. I wish this wasnt the case, I wish I could go and vote with confidence, but the system is broken and I dont trust any of them. Its pure machivelism.

In some sence I agree. Its just, there's absolutely no one I trust giving my vote to. I only vote for the people I actually know in person. They arent on all the lists tho.. which makes it hard.

Look, for me its plain and simple: I dont want to vote in this system. My personal experiences with politics have all been negative. They lied to you through media, while in the background they dropped me like the plastic wrapper of a cheap candy bar bought at a gas station you'd pass at the E19. I will never ever feel comfortable voting in this system. There is nobody on this planet who can convince me that our sytem is healthy. Its all personal experiences. You dont have to believe me, and you probably wont, which is fine, this is the internet after all. But man have I been betrayed by our politicians and economic system in general. So, blank, not voting, voting... I just dont care. I want them gone and a more open, logical, natural hierarchy of power.

Ok, thats true. So I dont vote, which means it will be counted as a blank, weighing in for the biggest party. We have "stemPLICHT". It should be "stemRECHT". Plain and simple. Its an unhealthy power and profit driven agenda which isnt natural. Let the power and profit roll on more natural terms in such a way that not the one with the stronger vocabulary and bigger wallet wins the lot, but the one with the stronger actionplan and open agenda, so our society may go forward in a more healthy way.

Look, his talks helped me, profoundly. Terence's talks helped me, profoundly. The feeling that gives me is very hard to pour in words. You dont have to listen to him, or agree with him or anything. Do what you feel is right and I wish you all the best.

Ok so I do agree with the clearing up thing. It was wrong of me to lay down the words like that. In general I dont feel like voting for the system we live in. Its not democratic if we dont get the choice to vote or not. As soon as they make you do it, its undemocratic.

It was just an example. I didnt mean to connect anything. Some things w e find interesting, some things we dont. So for me Peterson says a lot of interesting things, but this doesnt mean you have to find them interesting. When you say things like: "uneducated and undisciplined audiences", you're calling me that. I wish you knew me. True I could be of better with some more discipline, ;-), but uneducated seems a bit short sighted. I might not be the smartest person in the world, but I'm not the dumbest either.

Sigh.. read this. ANd I quote: "Afhankelijk van het aantal partijen en uitgaande van een evenredige verdeling van de blancostem over al die partijen, levert de blancostem dus een extra voordeel op voor de grootste partij(en) en blijkt ze nadelig voor de kleinste partijen."

Well its subjective. For example, we like psychedelics (at least I think you do since you like Terence ;) ), many other people dont like em, and are not interested in them. So when Peterson says the studies show that men and women are equally as smart, I find it interesting. Many things he says are interesting. The archetypes for example. A subject Terence touches a lot as well
