- based unless youre bad at being responsible for helping people
- rather difficult to be honest, its better to make sure the relationship is mutually beneficial so its strategically correct to continue rather than have faith in loyalty or fiduciary sentiment
- based for mental health but learning from successful people is also good as long as u keep survivorship bias in mind
- hmm not sure about this one

- i dont know what is meaningful i just know what is expedient
- as a general habit sure since compulsive lying is dysfunctional however there are categories where you are expected to lie like rhetorical questions nobody cares about. lying by omission is of course safer than telling explicit untruths, and if you should think very carefully before telling an explicit untruth in a non-rhetorical situation.

anyway if u actually want to change the world it seems to me the correct play is to simply become extremely rich. then u have some leverage.
by this view the marginal activist can only be doing it "for themselves" in the sense that they are seeking purpose, or self-satisfaction, or fame, or camaraderie. which is not necessarily wrong. you would have to consider it on a case-by-case basis.
re: honesty:
i think you should be theoretically honest and practically expedient. as in: if the foundation of your operations is cheating people or otherwise doing bad things your chance of success is considerably lower (albeit nonzero) than if youre theoretically legit at the end of the day. but there are lots of circumstances where you should not take your honesty standards too seriously as long as your intent is legitimate.
what are your thoughts on this video
For the record "based" is an awful fucking word and speaking in internet memespeak is "cringe"

I've known 1 person who would say "MonkaS" and "OmegaLUL" in normal face-to-face conversation and he looked exactly like Grimelines
Coincidence?

Your response to “be honest/don’t lie” is really kind of questionable, I think. A bunch of words to say you’re pretty ok with lying, is what it looks like.
You’re wrong.
So, your boyfriend, then?

well, how honest are your standards?
i think its fine and even expected to lie if someone asks you "how are you" and "did you get here alright?" with the mutual understanding that its a rhetorical question and they arent necessarily interested in an extensive answer
Big supporter of white lies
and in any sort of business situation where ur selling an object or doing an interview you should basically be enhancing the truth as much in your favor as possible without doing something that constitutes fraud. and of course politics etc. etc.
while the idea of an honesty standard is shiny and appealing its kind of useless in practice. the real honesty standard is to not get in trouble. if your MO is defrauding people and screwing them over, you will probably get in trouble one way or another. if you produce value and do good things and sometimes say expedient words in unpunishable circumstances you probably wont get in trouble and are also not hurting anyone.
