Do posters intend to hurt the feelings of other members?


It is usually the case that members engage in spirited, often passionate, discussions in threads. That’s normal. Regrettably, often those discussions veer off the tracks, where members are offended or genuinely have their feelings hurt by the content of others’ post(s). 

Do posters intend to hurt the feelings of other members? Your thoughts?

THIRD TRY in dealing with overly aggressive moderators/posters. I strongly suspect it is one given poster who does not like me and wants my posts gone. Some aspect of their issues rising to kill the post:

@djohnson54 well, that was not my intention. Just going with what the discourse here was leading and dovetailing a discussion on the very same language I had with my son that morning driving to practice when he used it (yet again) after I asked him to not accept that language from his 3rd grader pals as his own.

But it I appreciate your perspective all the same.

This happens because our early learning notably contains much in the way of taking on via observance and adopting things as our own.

So not really early learning but taking on things without thought. This is due to the number of things required to become a human bipedal, are too complex and too numerous ---for an immature intellect to contemplate.

Observe, repeat, adopt/take on..but no analysis. Intellect is about bypassing this natural function as one arises into being the physical adult. Or not --- depending on the given nature of wiring and how one was raised. It is the origin of Aristotle’s statement, “Give me a child until he is 7 and I will show you the man.” Gotta love those various schools and the control over children that is handed over....

Intellect, in the final form (adult) or earlier forms (juvenile-child), was not meant to and cannot operate at full tilt all the time...as this is too slow and too energy consuming glucose wise and whatnot.

So the brain is like the muscles of the body, designed for temporary full runs and then to stop. You can feel it happen in moments of inspiration..and you are firing on all the cylinders you were given... and then cylinders additionally developed (the brain is elastic and learns/unlearns) ...and then....you can feel it fade, past a certain point of peak contemplation/understanding. It cannot be held. But the size of it, the scope of if it, the run of it and the low mode size and power..can all be changed, via working it. This generally requires health as well, as the body is the carrier. (see: esoteric schools and systems)

We were designed to encounter a problem, to ruminate, find the first solution and then the brain is to go back to sleep and low power mode. Eureka! And then brain fade. By design. To go back to rote repetition and hindbrain aspects of emotional rule of thought process.

Additionally, emotions rule and control and filter all rumination. First filter. Survival, procreation. Fear and desire are the bottom most filters that all thoughts cannot escape being formed by,and depending on the threat assessment by the body, the filter is either more or less aggressive in considering all rumination and shaping of rumination.

In essence, all here use their ass first and foremost ....and filter via it, in all things, to some dialed in level of potency in the given moment. By design. The monkey perseveres, first and foremost. No body, no carrier, no mind, no ’life’. Monkey first in all things.

That’s why there are 7+ billion of us, in one state or another of tearing the planet apart, as the monkey cannot yet be shut off or shunted enough for an unfiltered non rose colored glasses version of intellect to arise or be.

The esoteric schools and tomes, teaching and learning.. are all about addressing this fundamental problem of perception and self. A major portion of them are, anyway... They are all about clearing this issue up, for the intrepid who want to look beyond the monkey into an actual intellectual analysis of the nature of reality. Hint, the nature of reality is not 3-d timespace ground pounder Newtonian stuff. Also, that intellect can be made to be greater than it is, if the starting point is is good enough to take it to new heights. The path is all pain, for the most part, but it does indeed work. Monkey and ego gets no free ride - in fact, the opposite.

The modern western world, is run and controlled out of via and through the filter of your balls. This is purposeful as it rings in and completes a circle of control. Money is essentially an animal control mechanism, paraded about as being outside of emotions and problems. The west as a fenced and boxed commodity. By design. Very Straussian. With walls far enough away that most of the denizens insist they are free. Good job. Nicely done.

As for the on-line communication thing, when you look at it with this corrected vantage point, you see that all the cues we use in in person contacts, are missing in the on line discourse. Even the words themselves are spoken inside our own heads, via the ego loop mechanism. 

The end point of that long trail of data and discourse, is that our on-line statements are more a reflection of us than they are of the person we respond to. That the 90% of the data we miss when reading other’s words in our heads... that we fill that in from who we are and how we use those words and arrangements of words.

So our flung refuse >>>>is all mirror<<<<.

Which leads to the very funny thing said to me once, about all that, is where you sometimes have to ask the given poster who is all full of vitriol and nastiness, to ask if they wanted a peanut for their monkey...


This is principally about western music which is about the monkey and his/her unconscious hindbrain as forebrain.... caught in a hiccuped emotional/ego feedback loop. It’s pleasure as sound as connected to motion and feelings, in a looped beat pattern system. Western music, essentially. (that you can feed a nearly newborn music and they will..move)

So we try to talk logic and thinking on a balls forum, full of people here in the act of pursing that to as much perfection and completeness as they can, at any price.

And how well is that going to turn out?

It is quite possibly not the fault of overly aggressive mods.

I have noticed at times, usually weekends, it will only take a post to be reported and it can be gone. Mods do not always completely read a post but just react to the reporting of it and poof!.

I could be wrong and maybe a Mod would correct me. I have seen numerous very good posts deleted when there was nothing in them that fit the guidelines for removal at all. But it’s a free forum so not much you can do about it.
First, I want to say what a pleasure it is to read teo_audio's posts. A very clever guy, indeed.

Next, when it comes to having your post removed, sometimes it's just out of spite and not for violating any rules. I've had a post removed that was more clever and direct than the one aimed at me and the offender took issue and had it removed. All it took was for me to contact Admin and asked for them to review it and they agreed that it was perfectly fine and they reinstated it. One has to remember that a lot of deletions are done on the fly as Admin can be quite busy.

All the best,
