My visionistic "tripe". Please read the whole thread, sisters and brothers... * 6
    #25953951 -

I'm all about common ground.

This is a revolutonairy step for actual change. It's simple: disagreement often creates disharmony, unfriendliness and war. Agreement creates harmony, friendliness and peace.

I know there are some smart people in the politics forum. Why on Earth do we not start a movement?

Think big: figure out the very best plans for everyone in this world to benefit from. Using logic and rational mind (Enlil, much? :heart:).

Right now it's Democrats VS. Republicans and Bernie vs. Trump on this forum. It gets daft. We don't change anything debating this. XUL is determined on Trump, he won't change his mind even with the most clever left-wing arguments. Some left-wingers are determined on Bernie, they won't change their minds even with the most clever right-wing arguments. No matter who gets elected, nothing will change on a grand scale. If we collectively work together and find common ground, we will get to a state of emotional communion and motivate each other to find the very best arguments for everyone to benefit from. Imagine building the strongest most friendly online political community on the web and on top of that start a movement and even a political party. :heart:

Huge budgets for science, wealth equality and remove big business are some of my contributions for common ground between left-wingers and right-wingers on this forum. If you don't feel this, I'm open for compromises.

Basically we're at status quo on this forum. From the red side, The Ecstatic and shivas.wisdom are obviously well-versed in politics and intelligent at that, but they should not (IMO) find arguments against the blue side but instead look for common ground. You will not change XUL, qman and lowbrow's mind with classic albeit smart left-wing arguments no matter how hard you try. The Ecstatic and shivas.wisdom gets many +1's from their left-wing tribe and that's about it, but what about getting into XUL's head and vice versa? It doesn't work. XUL has a completely different mindset and right now XUL is deadset on Trump 2020. But he too realize both the US and the world is in a really bad shape. And that in itself is some serious common ground. Remember, XUL is open for a different candidate than Trump if it suits him and the US better. But he's not open for left-wing authority. It's in direct conflict with his right-wing political identity. Changing XUL's mind in the political field means to outdate both red-ish and blue-ish ways of thinking with something which is better to him, the US and the world as a whole.

(PS: I hope you're OK with me posting this about you XUL, if not I apologize. Feel free to point to my errors if there are some.)

As a matter of fact right-wingers and left-wingers on this forum have insanely much in common, they're first and foremost psychonauts. :heart: The sinister part: they're likely clueless human beings living on a rock where little is known, we're somewhere in a place called the Universe and few if anyone knows WTF is happening on a grand scale. This is one major common ground amongst us all. Do you not want to explore space? Some sort of ultimate truth may be out there.

I say, let's focus on leaving this suffering planet and its mighty animal kingdom, so it can heal after all the evil misery humans have put on it.

But we will never explore space thoroughly when blue is in some sort of war with red and vice versa. Politics is fundamentalist religion.

Co-operation can take us very far. :heart:

Why do you have to look up to these bigshot political names? Are you not clever enough together with smart people here on the shroomery to find even more advanced ways to run a society and even a global society? Clearly things are not working in this world, and as Enlil have pointed out before, everyone wants changes. I will personally add: most want major changes. Most of us in this forum realize only minor changes will happen regardless of Trump or Bernie in the next election. At least worldwide. The planet is bleeding and things need to change fast if there is any hope for humanity.

In this forum with lots of potential I think we need to back each other up, work on finessing each others arguments and plans for a better world and quit with the semi-jabs/mental masturbation at each other, like Enlil has pointed out before. I've been doing it myself and it's the crazy right vs. left debate which makes me eager to acquire +1's and win, winning is often based on dirty tricks. Real talk: this forum is not friendly, in itself it's like other political forums where blue meets red. Semi-hostility and snarky sarcasm.

Bottom line:

After all we're one tribe, fellow political posters. Together we're tremendously strong. :heart:

I completely agree. Wise words :justastonishing:

People have strong egos and strong beliefs. Changing those beliefs and old ways of thinking will not be an easy task.

But maybe, just maybe, its possible to have Global Peace :peace:

I agree that the opposing sides do have much in common, but its about where we attribute responsibility. leftists point toward capitalism, the elites and inequality they thrive on, the division through racism and other isms that they benefit from etc. The right (in my view) fall for the elite's games (while also partly blaming elites) and blame minorities and shifting trends towards equality and fair representation as a fucking jewish plot. Everything is Soros this soros that lol.

The left see that we should help those most vulnerable in our society to make us collectively strong as a society, the right think we should let individuals sink or swim and ignore the festering problems this causes in our society when people's environment perpetuates gross inequalities. I'm not sure what could bridge that divide because although the problems are of concern to everyone, people look at those problems through radically different filters. Ultimately I think the right needs to turn their focus onto destroying the power and wealth of the elites, rather than destroying "undesirables". That structural change is one thing, then we can squabble about the more particular details. But when the right tends to be more ok with colonialism, imperialism etc as a symbol of western pride, how do you deprogramme what capitalism has brainwashed us with?

IMO, this attitude is horrid, no offense intended.  How about instead of leaving the planet to flail and "heal" from all the damage and plundering homo sapiens sapiens has wrought upon it, we put ALL of our efforts as a species into restoration? 

Until our species changes it's attitude and approach about/towards living in "harmony" with the rest natural world, of which we are part....and assuming we make it to another planet/rock (which i doubt will happen).... we will just trash the next place as we've done here.

I think you are grossly mistaken on why conservatives are holding to our principles.

It's because conservatives tend to be traditionalists (hence the name conservative) and leftists are now the party of progressive radicalism.

Do you see the conflict?

Before 2016, democrats supported border security, argued that abortion should be rare and limited, supported the first amendment, and so forth. Democrats and Republicans could relate on things and could always agree America is the best.

Now we have democrats who want open borders, third trimester abortion, hate speech laws (and banning of campus speakers), making guns illegal, and now tearing down America's statues and burning our flag on the streets.

After years of calling every conservative, Trump supporter, or non-liberal white person a racist Nazi, you now want to play compromise?

I'll support you as a fellow Americans, but you pretty much wore me out by screaming racist, playing doctor, and stomping your feet.

Awesome LC. I kind of had a feeling you would chime in with your positive vibes. You've +1'd a few of my posts in the past and I sincerely take it to heart. :heart: Thanks a lot for the motivation. :cool:

Here comes a long post...

I spent last night and this morning binging on amphetamines writing the OP. Now I'm having some sort of aftereffect from the amphetamines so I popped a few xanax and had a some ciders.

Writing the OP on amphetamines gives me a kick out of this world, finding new ways of thinking, figuring out new arguments etc. It truly enriches my life understanding the psychology and stagnation between polar opposites like The Ecstatic and XUL and then understanding they need to look away from what they disagree on, neither likely ever going to convince the other in a disagreement, in particular red/blue debate - stagnation.

Simplified: The Ecstatic draws a line with a pen on a piece of paper, this is something to build on as XUL continues drawing from that same line. The Ecstatic continues drawing from XUL's line, eventually they have a drawing, together. Common ground.

Politicially: XUL claims big corporations have too much power, this is something to build on as The Ecstatic finds an argument supporting XUL's position. XUL finds another argument supporting The Ecstatic's argument, eventually they have a solid position against big corporations, together. Common ground.

Here's what happens, they build each other up. Remember: agreement creates harmony, friendliness and peace.

The moment The Ecstatic and XUL find themselves to disagree, they must strive to find a brand new agreement instead. Every day disagrement is disharmony. Everyday agreement is harmony.

The OP in this thread was a very long read and this post about as long, ballsalsa thinks I'm writing too long and he says I'm more or less posting nonsensically, normally I would not care what he says but I'm kind of trying to bring us political forum peeps together. I respect ballsalsa and I know he's not stupid. I'm on his side and would love ballsalsa to read the OP in this thread. :smile: Keep in mind, I'm foreign so the grammar may be a bit off. Also balls, I really don't think I'm God or Jesus or Messiah. :razz:

I almost always write my posts seriously in the political forum and I do believe shroomery has heaps of potential. I'll say it again, I want to start a revolution! :cool:

In the political forum Falcon91Wolvrn03 stands his ground like a real man - but I don't understand anything about Assange, Mueller report and Russia so I don't really understand most of fals posts - he also gives me many +1's to my posts and I'm not stupid so fal is a smarty - fal sure knows how to debate aswell. koods is controversial but very clever and somewhat funny but he can be very rude at times and is a posterboy for the snarky sarcasm. Enlil is a whizzy and perhaps the most rational poster of us all - I think if I get Enlil on my side it would make a quite big impact on the political forum - Enlil's views are not liked by many but surely he is respected - not only for his good moderating skills but his way of short and to the point posts. The mother/father of the shroomery Asante is very smart, very empathic and very lovey - he somewhat reminds me of myself - all about freedom for Africa :heart: - I wanted to donate money to him personally as a general courtesy but the shroomery didn't follow up on my request - I would like to meet Asante IRL and we do not live too far away from each other. The Ecstatic is abnormally intelligent in the political field his arguments are some of the best I've ever seen - if he could just focus that intelligence into brand new revolutionary arguments; to look above the left-wing position but that is difficult. Tantrika and I had a great debate on video games she sure challenged me and she sure is smart. :heart: shivas.wisdom is very empathic - he seems to be volunteering a lot and for me as a semi-altruist that is truthfully amazing and his ANTIFA-interest is wicked I'm all about fighting the power and he's also one of the smarter posters on this site. twighead is a clever one. As controversial as qman might be he's smart and rationale and believe it or not qman I agree with you more than you think on immigration, not everything but some of it. I liked XUL's recent thread about being sorry and then editing it turning it into Trump not because I like Trump but he sure fooled me - very cleverly done - I see hope in XUL - not him turning left but thinking above left/right politics. lowbrow is very direct this can often come off as quite toxic but at times it's a necessity. And yourself LogicalChaos is very uplifting and very real - when I'm about to read your posts I'm not worried there will be some snarky sarkastic unpleasant post - you're most definitely an asset to this forum and I'm truly happy you're a moderator - I think you're woke enough to see the potential in my serious posts just like tyrannicalrex - you's are few. :heart: psilynut2 shines with some fantastic and logical posts. vinsue, Brian Jones, Bigbadwoof and Tipote are all smart and sound posters. All of these usernames are the people I've encountered the most in the political forum so if you're not on this list it's because we may have had very few or no encounters on the forums.

Now if y'all could just put asside all your ping-poing debates about various politicians, Assange, Mueller report, red/blue politics and all that horseshit which in fact takes us nowhere. And instead create brand new plans and brand new arguments for a better world and maybe start a movement and even a revolution.  :grin:

The game of Monopoly is a good simplified example of how capitalism works.

At the beginning of the game, everyone is equal, and no one knows who will win.  But as the game progresses, someone gets lucky and lands on Boardwalk and Park Place, and the richer they get, the easier the game becomes for them to win.  Towards the end, there is very little hope for the people who are behind, unless they get EXTREMELY lucky rolls to continuously avoid the wrath of the rich players.

Unfortunately in this world, the rich became rich a long, long time ago, and we've been near the end of the game for centuries, where it's extremely difficult for the rest of us to catch up.


The right seems to think that rich kids are entitled to tax free inheritance becuase their great, great, great ancestors got lucky, and that the capital gains taxes that those rich kids pay from investing daddy's money should be taxed far less than the income taxes the best and brightest poor kids pay who started their own companies and worked their way up.

The left wants to tax the rich more, the right wants to keep the tax burden on the lower class.

How do we overcome this fundamental difference in philosophy?

I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

That’s you telling campfire stories, Boss. I’m not sure where you get your information, but nobody is advocating for open borders or pushing a pro-abortion stance. These issues are nuanced. To properly understand them you have to put in the effort to interpret the nuance.

If you dont see the larger point, then perhaps you are lagging.

The conversation used to be whether or not cells were a human.

Now we are talking about babies coming out of the womb that will be killed.

Don't see the concerns for conservatives?

Keep playing dumb and find out how much compromise you see in the future.
