        1/ Toxic masculinity is excessive yang. The majority of “bad” actions from men can be categorized as toxic femininity. Vice versa, the source of toxic yang primarily sources from women.

        Intuitively this makes sense. It’s more difficult for a knife to be too sharp or a marshmallow to be too soft. A dull knife or hard marshmallow is easy. Just do nothing.

        2/ Successful founders ($$$ exit) are mostly conventional types that *want* to be independent thinkers. The independence from money aligns with their desire for independent thinking.

        Thinking for yourself is the fastest way to poverty, not wealth. It only produces wealth in specific circumstances in specific think-4-urself sub-archetypes.

        Most think-4-urself archetypes don’t have the stomach for finance stuff or the bureaucracy necessary for stock trading or running a company. Many also don’t care about money enough to propel themselves over these hurdles.

        You can only manifest money if you really want it vs ironically wanting it. And really wanting money/wealth is pretty conventional.

        3/ The extreme left is more nazi than people who literally dress up as nazis and wave around the swastika. The very act of playing dress up shows that it is just childish venting and not organized/vicious enough to fully actualize.

        4/ signaling spirituality is a red flag that spirituality isn’t being sought. What “Oneness” implies is eternal loneliness and that other “people” matter as much as an anime character. Yet spiritual groups are usually fortresses defending *against* loneliness.

        At the same time, the lack of these “communities” is the biggest problem humans currently have. The problem is too *much* worship of thinking for yourself, not too little.

        5/ Cats suffer as pets but their suffering doesn’t matter to them so taking advantage of their suffering is not immoral. They suffer in the wild as well. (Dogs don’t think of themselves as pets.)

        7/ Hitler was a sensitive and idealistic individual who only wanted what was best but became a tyrant under massive pressure, taking max advantage of the system and situation. Happens to many founders “hacking” the system.

        8/ You should *not* actively try to become an example for others unless you also have children. The Jock/Chad archetypes are perfect, but only within a time horizon that ignores the next generation.

        Doesn’t apply if you think humans are bad or that reality is a simulation or that everything is the drama of god.

        9/ Seeking immortality is not virtuous (despite its popularity in the rational community) It thinks it worships Life but actually worships Fear of Death. It’s OK if it results from courage to befriend death though. Accidental immortality also ok.

        10/ Slavery is a contract willingly entered and is the default majority response. “Give me freedom or give me death” is an outlier.
