Thank you for this comment. I came here to say something similar.

Stoicism is a great thing, but it needs to be interpreted in a way that does not lead to a capitalism-compatible milquetoast philosophy that is then used by privileged people to justify their apathy and egoism.

(similar is true for the way how many westerners understand eastern spiritualism and are then happily more concerned about their yoga mattress and shit than of the living beings around them).

Taking these pitfalls in mind, stoicism and meditation-ish self-care can help a lot to avoid breakdown while fighting this horrible machine. :black_sparkling_heart:

" “How did I get to the point where I am upset with this current administration?” Joe Szimhart journey from a self-described “cult believer” to a leading expert on esoteric religious movements… We are coming together because we are on alert about the dangerous overlap between authoritarian influence and today’s political landscape. Our conversation reveals a sobering truth: self-indoctrination can be just as powerful as formal brainwashing—and no one is immune. Being well-read won’t help you to avoid getting recruited into a cult. Nor will being highly intelligent protect you and or being happy. We talk about Agni Yoga and Church Universal & Triumphant cults- and how Vladimir Putin and his wife were devotees of Agni Yoga & Michael Flynn did a “decree” from Elizabeth Clare Prophet’s cult. Flynn traveled the USA with the Moonies cult for their Rod Of Iron Freedom Festivals recruiting for Trump and the supposed “civil war” to come."—MeidasTouch Network, Dr. Steven Hassan

Replied to Méta de Choc

Dans son ascension irrésistible, la méditation semble avoir convaincu tout le monde et on la trouve désormais partout : à Wall Street, dans la Silicon Valley, les cabinets d’avocats, les universités, les hôpitaux, les prisons, l’armée et les agences gouvernementales.

Mais de quoi s’agit-il exactement ? Quand on parle de méditation, on parle de quoi ?
