    • Excellent....I am a victim of Academia...my DNA tested cat scanned specimens of my Perfectly Preserved Mudfossil Discovery made enemies of everyone I knew as I tried to interact. I presented my work to Yale and in 2016 "Exceptional preservation of soft-bodied Ediacara Biota promoted by silica-rich oceans" they agreed that there was a Fast worldwide salty global flood that created the Mudfossils which I presented to them a few years before and mine are FULLY tested. Because my research is supported Yale and no other University will return my communications so my work is only on my channel. To communicate I need sopmeone that will respond even if nasty...I can work with that by asking questions but DEAD silence is what I find.

    • Sometimes even certain insults/ridicule can be taken constructively by a level headed person, but then there's some that think any kind of criticism is insulting/abuse. We all care what someone thinks, even if that's just ourselves, it's not always bad. Decent video, Diogenes was a first class ba1lbuster.

They must be reveling in their abusive filtration so much so that they WANT everyone to see that they are shadow banning specific dialogue. I wonder if this comment will make it through their filter.

If you don't think the person is wise, you shouldn't be accepting their advice or their criticism. On paper, we are often forced to accept criticism in order to keep a job. However, that is very different from accepting the criticism in practice. We can determine ways to resist... On paper, we can make it look as though we are responding constructively to criticism when in fact we have schemed a work around.

  • Here is a related Aesop’s fable that I heard when I was a kid and it changed my life: A man and his son were once going with their donkey to market. As they were walking along by his side a countryman passed them and said: “You fools, what is a donkey for but to ride upon?” So the man put the boy on the donkey, and they went on their way. But soon they passed a group of men, one of whom said: “See that lazy youngster, he lets his father walk while he rides.” So the man ordered his boy to get off, and got on himself. But they hadn’t gone far when they passed two women, one of whom said to the other: “Shame on that lazy lout to let his poor little son trudge along.” Well, the man didn’t know what to do, but at last he took his boy up before him on the donkey. By this time they had come to the town, and the passers-by began to jeer and point at them. The man stopped and asked what they were scoffing at. One men said: “Aren’t you ashamed of yourself for overloading that poor donkey of yours - you and your hulking son?” The man and boy got off and tried to think what to do. They thought and they thought, until at last they cut down a pole, tied the donkey’s feet to it, and raised the pole and the donkey to their shoulders. They went along amid the laughter of all who met them until they came to a bridge, when the donkey, getting one of his feet loose, kicked out and caused the boy to drop his end of the pole. In the struggle the donkey fell over the bridge, and his forefeet being tied together, he was drowned. The original moral of the story is: Try to please everyone, and you will please no one. Personally, it taught me that 100 people can have 100 opinions, so by pure logic other people's opinion can't be a good reference point to be used as a personal compass.

All of a sudden the donkey stops dead in the road, and refuses to move. The farmer knows the only thing that will make the donkey walk on is a firm slap on his back, but his arms are full, carrying the two birds. Just then he spots a beautiful young woman walking towards him. He calls out... "Excuse me, Miss..." "Would you hold my cock and pullet while I slap my ass?"

  • This is a terrific video. I graduated from Stanford Business School and spent two decades working in Silicon Valley. I’m no psychologist but my assessment of many of the characters encountered in that time was a collection of narcissists, psychopaths, and arrogant types whose world view was measured by how much money they made, how much control over others they exercised, and the belief that the sun rose and set on their foreheads. I never cared whether those types “liked” me; I knew them for what they were. This video lays out why everyone should step back and consider whether what anyone else thinks of you is immaterial. Live your own life; it is shorter than you think, and it’s yours.

Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

    • When you depend on others for income because personal disability or general lack of economic opportunity has left you incapable of self-sufficiency, it's not as simple as just choosing who you give authority to. Especially when those you depend on use their power to manipulate you, to force you to abide by their opinion. Not to mention what happens out in the world, even when you are theoretically self-sufficient, and then those around you see it fit to resort to violence or other evil against you because you contradicted their opinion. If people's opinions stopped at their words, it would be easy to stop caring about them. But it never does. It continues into their actions, out their mouths as poisonous words to others you care about and others you look up to, down their arms to a violent fist or a firearm, to the destruction or theft of property, to the invasion of your privacy, and so much more.

  • The timing of this is perfect. I live in a busy town centre. Some local young men have decided that they like to tell me what their assessment of my sexual preference is as I walk by, and in not very kind language. I don't know these men, nor have they ever seen me doing anything apart from walking to the shops. Their words hurt me and I find myself thinking about it for most of the rest of the day, and then I get angry at myself for letting them ruin my day. I was bullied in school, a long time ago, so this kind of thing hits me hard. I've been working on my confidence and self-improvement and I'm getting better at 'being a stone'. I may even be brave enough one day to say something funny to them. I was thinking "You're not my type, love". This video gave me another boost. I took notes. Thank you.

    • Loving someone is very different to caring about their opinion of you. First show them unconditional love. Later they will mentally form a strong positive opinion of you, even if they don't express it outwardly. Only hold someone in high regard, but never above yourself, as long as you share opinions. Be prepared to disagree quite strongly on certain points. Also be prepared to change your mind after uncovering compelling evidence. Weigh the pros and cons of all evidence. Ask yourself who is producing the evidence and what their underlying motivations may be. Everyone operates on an agenda.

What you gain can be as subtle as your very self image, that is one one never bothered to look at one's life & is instead relying on other's opinion of them. The key is to realise what one gains & then see is it worth it. If you'll understand it's not worth it, it will be dropped itself. Also, it's not always bad to rely on other's opinions but God has given you eyes & ears for a reason.

It is so freeing not being a slave to the opinions or remarks of others when they don’t have any real reasoning behind them to begin with. As you get older you realize that people say mean and rude things sometimes not because of you, but because they do not have the mental capacity to hide those mean things and say them as a means of self reflection of their own reality. Now, if you genuinely are doing something wrong then that’s different, but most of the time people will take their anger out on you because they themselves are miserable. Learn to isolate the remarks that are valuable and the remarks that are meaningless, it will change your life for the better immensely.

That hatred sat in my heart, burning a hole through it. I let go of the hate, and part of that process was realizing this man could have acted no differently than he did. That allowed me to forgive him to a degree because I understood that he was hardly in control of his own actions (this man, while certainly an intellectual, had a profound lack of self-awareness). Now, I may have forgiven him and let go of my hate, but I'll never forget the decisions he made. Never will the trust be mended, never will I seek out his company, and given the option I would gladly go my entire life without hearing his name ever again. But I don't need the hate and anger.

  • Good afternoon AOI. A decent collection of nifty quotes and insights. Thanks - what is, IMV, amiss is the pointer to whence this approval seeking stems. Years ago, during studies reg some human-history-psychology topics, i noted that this social anxiety/approval seeking might stem from those ancient and also rather recent ways of communal living: in a tribal / family setting, losing the approval of the collective usually and very often meant: being exiled, expelled from the tribe/family. Then, on ones own, survival was a much greater challenge and probably not very successful. Survival depended on being approved of by the collective. - When pondering this, I realised that such deeply engrained thought/behaviour patterns can’t be discarded just by rationally deciding to do so. As I recall - the worst punishment in tribal cultures (which is our common human history) was being sentenced to EXILE. This approval seeking was probably once a very usual ‘skill’ to have in order to survive. And it can get in the way nowadays when outer circumstances have changed considerably compared to just 100 yrs ago. Important topic , no doubt ‘bout it. Cheers -

We have almost no debates in Sweden, and if we do, the debate is after the political decision has been made, not before it. Swedes also have one of the worlds highest trust in their own government. Even if the government is the only thing capable of abusing you without a chance to resist. Most people I have met don't believe we even have corruption in our political class.

  • I learned on my own that not even giving credence to other people’s pointless comments or insults is the best way to dismantle someone. You are unmovable, they may try to raise you to a boiling point but to keep calm and laugh off their attempts at inciting anger makes one emboldened. It shows that you are not only unphased by their commentary, but that you find it humorous. Perhaps even adding in a joke of your own to swindle yourself and the other individual out of it. If not, that other person will talk themselves into foolishness, and any that are listening will learn quickly that the one that remains speaking is the true fool, for he argues himself to a pant. And truth be told, it all _is_ funny and rather pointless. Watching a man get angry and flail themselves around is a circus act. It _should_ be laughed at, it’s ridiculous.

  • I like the updated title better than the "stop caring about what others think" but also at the same time I like the idea of framing it in terms of thoughts vs opinions. The reason is most people, except perfect narcissists and who cares what they think anyway, have probably had at least one experience where their thoughts were just wrong in some way. Most honest people would be willing to say the same with opinions but I think more people are more attached to opinions than they are their thoughts. Sadly, many opinions are not well thought out and in some way based almost entirely or have major components based in the appeal to authority bias and or social availability bias. The word "care" can mean several different things depending on the context. I default my definition of "care" to "what I actually spend my time doing" because in some way I can say I care about a thing more if I spend more of my limited time with it than with something else. Generally speaking I don't care about the thoughts and opinions of others and I mean that in the specific way I defined. Basically I mean I generally don't spend my time thinking about the thoughts and opinions of others unless it directly or indirectly involves them or in some other way those thoughts and opinions are/should be relevant. Many people, and even people most wouldn't think of at first, base their worldviews, opinions, etc on consensus and while I personally think it makes sense for things we don't care about, I also fail to see how it makes any sense if we care. In the end all a person can really say with any real level of certainty when they base their thoughts and opinions on consensus are a series statements about what others think and not much about the actual subject. Just as an example, "The majority of specialists in X field believe Y so therefore Z". If Z is almost anything other than a restating of Y then it is an appeal to the authority of X. In less formal examples this same basic thing has been given the label "collective illusions" and is basically where people believe, or pretend to, a thing just because they think the majority of people believe or think it.

Even loners need some, unless you're part of that 0.1% who can just fck off and go live off the grid for years without seeing anyone else. After you're done with school it's always harder to make friends. People often look for new friends through hobbies, so maybe there's some gymbuddy out there after all, or at some other hobbies? You can always find more hobbies if you want as well. And do you know why you don't like most people? Because that's definitely unusual, most people get along fine with one another. I kinda like my own company best as well, and am not jumping for joy for most interactions, but for me that's because i can't filter external impulses well because i'm autistic, so while i get along fine with most people and most conversations go well, they end up making me feel drained and make my brain feel 'full' for lack of better words. If you don't know why it might be good for you to figure out the cause of why you don't like interacting with most people.

So doctors are all conspiring against people but POLITICIANS and MEDIA TALKING HEADS are the ones that know the truth? That's a truly ass backwards way of thinking. It's not bravery to ignore rules during a plague and get people killed. It's SELFISHNESS.

    • @@h2oquality2010 conservative politicians and media MAKE THEIR MONEY by getting you to hate Biden. So anything he does is evil and a lie according to them. It’s about MONEY AND POWER. They tell you to NOT follow safety guidelines so you’ll VOTE FOR THEM.

    • Spot on ~ you stayed true to yourself while avoiding to be hypnotised by mass media propaganda. It was tough, I can relate as I did the same thing, and NO we did not endanger anyones life, but we actually inspired others to remove their masks, walk freely in public spaces, continue to enjoy the outdoors and not live in fear. It takes strength of character to walk against the crowd. Stay Real.

  • When someone tells me "I don't care what anyone thinks!", I always explain that it doesn't make them look confident, assertive, and a free spirit. It makes them sound like an egotistical narcissist without a moral compass and totally devoid of empathy. These people almost always attempt to justify horrendous behavior with weak slogans like "I keep it real", "Don't silence mmy truth", and "Its not my fault you can't handle the truth."

  • I find humor to be a very good shield against the opinions of others. In some way, it disarms the other person of any insult or criticism they might have about us when we turn it against ourselves in a humorous way.

  • Philosophers always express themselves with a beautiful antimetabole or a chiasmus. (For what I know, they do not approve, and what they approve, I do not know.) Grammar is at the heart of philosophy.
