I really like this guy! He covers the four archetypes of masculinity, as well as his designs for silver coins that he produces and sells. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSLEZPHFqSg Read more »
Is Fascism Right Or Left?
While I do not consider myself on the right, but more of a classical liberal, this presentation does link classical liberalism to modern conservatism. Overall, it is a good presentation. “Every Republican president since the 1970s has been called a fascist. Ironic, no? After all, fascism has its roots in the left. Dinesh D’Souza, author of The Big Lie, explains.” Read more »
The Postmodern Deconstruction of the Star Wars Universe
In the original Star Wars trilogy, the light side of the Force puts forth a process oriented vision of peace, while the dark side puts forth an “ends justifies the means” vision of peace. However, in the new movie “The Last Jedi”, both the light and dark sides are conveying the same message to the audience, “be in the moment, and destroy the past” as their vision of peace, as […] Read more »
Camille Paglia Gives Feminists a History Lesson
Women need men, for it is through looking into the mirror of men that women are able to get to know and appreciate their own uniqueness better. Conversely, men need women, for it is through looking into the mirror of women that men are able to get to know and appreciate their own uniqueness better. “When an educated culture routinely denigrates masculinity and manhood, then women will be perpetually stuck […] Read more »
Is the future of Star Wars more Gray than simply Dark vs Light?
I think we need to start looking at the Gray Jedi in light of Nietzsche’s concept of the Übermensch, who is a being that has transcended traditional group morality of good and evil, and has a higher individualistic morality based on their experiences to form a holistic perspective of the workings of life. An Übermensch has the ability to conceptualize and process so many angles, layers, and aspects of any […] Read more »
The Pre/Trans Fallacy
Aline and I run into this fallacy often, where people in the “pre-“ state of spirituality misunderstand the concept of unity, and perceive it as psychological enmeshment, much like the concepts of patriotism and/or group identification, and not in the “trans-“ state of psychological differentiation from a collective through achieving Selfhood. Instead of doing the work to integrate and align their internal aspects of self, as a means of moving […] Read more »

Nietzsche and Truth: Skepticism and the Free Spirit
Aline and I are free spirits who have taken Nietzsche’s “experimentalism” and used it to challenge our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to an extreme degree. Much of our insights and growth has come through experimenting with new ideas, while challenging our older ideas—older ideas which stem from past traumas, societal norms, biological factors, and childhood experiences. Being able to continually challenge and work through our old beliefs while remaining flexible […] Read more »
Envy, Madness and True Reality – Dr Norberto Keppe
This video series is absolutely phenomenal at diagnosing the root causes of human insanity, which is envy. Envy is directly related to the concept of equity, since envy attacks that which is good in order to bring everybody back down to the same equitable level (equality of outcomes). In this interview, the brilliant Brazilian psychoanalysts, Dr. Norberto Keppe and Dr. Cláudia Pacheco, remind us of the human pathology that lies behind our problems. […] Read more »
Voluntaryism & the Non-Aggression Principle – EFT w Nathan Martin
In this video, I give a brief description of Voluntaryism and its foundational principle, the Non-Aggression Principle, and how it relates to how we give and receive. When we are young, we learn that giving is mostly coercive, either from our family, school, or society, thus we do not have a point of reference or personal understanding of what giving without some form of subtle coercion is. I then perform […] Read more »
