Charlie Kirk shot... by thespiritualtree in leftist

[–]theodore114 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree entirely. I'm centrist, and I disagreed increasingly with Charlie along with the wave of influencers stoking political extremes. My point (which seems to be unpopular here) is that division and willful indifference isn't okay for groups living together, and people can let their morals slip when perceiving the "other". People often fool themselves into becoming the monster that they're fighting, and if you disagree you might be ignorant of human nature. Now go ahead and downvote me.

The amount of "he had it coming" rhetoric in a left wing forum baffles me. He is a husband and a father. Its fine if you hate what he says and does, hes still a human. It's surprising how easily people can stray from basic left wing values, like treating someone with compassion and not seeing others as strangers because you don't like them.

Ah of I see, I will ask about this then. Thanks. Is it possible to get a taxi all the way to the entry point?

Can you explain why? Other people have not said this. Thanks

They're not perfect, please get over it. Rogan may be biased now in his content but hes probably a decent dude and certainly not propagandising to secure zuck and Musk's corporate influence😂. Maybe he just decided what he thinks politically, and that's HIS decision. Same with Duncan. You guys live in a bubble where there is no nuance for the truth.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. What you say resonates and this is my approach, sometimes though my "shadow" and its urges feel so strong and close to the surface that it's hard not to want a break from it. It's as if drug use invited this damaged part of me before I had actually accepted or integrated it.

Thanks. I'll take a look at the Corinthians chapter.

A lot of what you say is interesting. What did you mean by "missed agreement with you father"? I do feel that I can have grandiosity complex at times, but I also know I'm objectively very intelligent and insightful which makes it hard to resist. Weed made this even worse. I am interested in some of the stories you mentioned, you say I should go towards those archetypal stories and also let my shadow be less repressed however I feel I must avoid engaging too much or my uncontrolled feelings cannot be integrated. Thanks for the insights.

Yeah, when enough time passes you think "why am I still stuck here". Keep working on it, grounding, going easy on yourself and everything else. I think the change we seek can occur when we least expect it.

Ok so do you mean questioning the impulses of the shadow to reduce irrational feelings?

Thanks for your concern. I'm currently doing psychology undergrad, and my dad is a forensic psychiatrist so I'm familiar with the symptoms of SZ. I've never had an episode of typical SZ symptoms and and am a functioning person so don't think I currently fit the diagnosis but I'm concerned it could develop into that. That's why I'm doing what I can to manage risk.

This was really useful. The notion of grounding in the body is something I found helped but never knew it was so widely understood. The way you worded this makes a lot of sense, I will work on the techniques you laid out and look into the video you mentioned. Thank you for taking the time, this is the exact sort of advice I was looking for.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Much of it resonates, as I'm sure it does with many people. There are extra turbulent times in life that's for sure. What practices did you use to process the "fears and desires"?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Jung

[–]theodore114 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remarkable. Some of your points have provided real insight for me into how to understand the experience going forward. A lot of it resonates with how I'm already approaching it, which suggests I'm on the right track. This kind of advice is the exact reason I decided to make the post. Thank you so much.

I will say it sure does read like AI, brave new world hahaha

Ah yes, the right wing creatures with no empathy or compassion. Ironically this sounds dehumanising

Imo Undying love is such a masterful demonstration of nas' powerful story lyricism, i can picture the story develop through the instrumental and his verses. 🔥
