Daniel Schmachtenberger does not understand what reality is.
Watch timestamp: 27:15-34:30
Notice how he dodges and never answers the question. He doesn't even understand the question.
The answer to this question is not unknown and it does not require waffling, humility, or uncertainty. It is not about which model is closest. It is not about hedging your bets. It is not about epistemic humility. It is not about citing some theoretician or philosopher.
What is Reality? There's only one answer: INFINITY/GOD/LOVE/MIND.
If that answer isn't given, the person does not understand philosophy nor spirituality.
Absolute Truth is accessible.
I want to you to notice that all of this fancy theoretical Tier 2 meta-crisis talk is still just sophisticated self-deception.
These Game B, meta-crisis people, including Daniel Schmachtenberger, Jordan Hall, Forrest Landary, John Vervaeke do not understand metaphysics. They are lost in a sophisticated conceptual Tier 2 mental-masturbation. You cannot understand ultimate reality through their kind of approach. There is a kind of false reverence and humility in these people. They're unwilling to drop all their meta-crisis mental-masturbation to reach Absolute Truth. They love their intellectual posturing too much. And their approach is too communal. They think they can understand reality through dialogue and community. This cannot occur. Because the entire social domain is hallucination and group-think. Yes, even meta-crisis, Game B, Forrest Landry's metaphysics is group-think. Saving the Earth is group-think. Environmentalism is group-think. Buddhism is group-think. Nonduality is group-think. Evolutionary theory is group-think. Integral theory is group-think.
This is some of the world's most subtle and sophisticated self-deception — this meta-crisis crowd.
This is not about being better than anyone. This is about realizing God. Stop fucking around and realize God. I'm not going to endlessly entertain this human bullshit for the sake of not offending you.
You're missing Infinite Love.
This is an excellent Tier 2 Integral analysis of DEI. The last third of the video gets especially good as it gets more Integral, so watch through to the end.
Stick through the beginning of the video, I promise you he's not an anti-woke airhead.
I love how Keith criticizes DEI not from below like right-wingers do, but from above. This is a case-study in how to criticize left-wing/Green ideology from above. This shows you how bad and delusional right-wing criticisms of the left are even though the left has some bad positions. The left and post-modernism need to be included and transcended, not demonized and fought with. Notice how much better this Integral critique is than something like what Jordan Peterson does. This is why Jordan Peterson is not Tier 2. Tier 2 is non-reactionary because it understands and appreciates the stage it's criticizing.
Have you integrated the thing you're criticizing or not? That's the key difference. Right-wingers constantly make the error of criticizing things they haven't done the work to integrate. It's like criticizing food you've never tasted because you're too afraid and too closedminded to put it in your mouth.

An important point about the topic of equality of opportunity vs equality of outcome:
The distinction between equality of opportunity and equality of outcome is a right-wing canard. This is an untenable distinction because the two are inter-related. You cannot know if opportunity is truly equal without at least some measure of outcomes. We do not have a crystal ball, so we need to measure outcomes to at least some degree to know if systems are fair. How do you know if someone is cheating at a game? You look at historical outcomes. That's how casinos catch cheaters.
Considering outcomes does not mean all the outcomes need to be 50/50. But the notion that we shouldn't care about outcomes at all is wrong. It's a notion spread by right-wing reactionaries like Jordan Peterson to justify the corruption of the status quo. Caring about equality of outcomes does not mean that 50% of programmers or bricklayers should be women. That's just a strawman of what equality of outcome means. It is extremely convenient for a corrupt power hierarchy to say, "Don't look at the outcomes", because the outcomes reveal corruption and bias. When we say that income inequality is a huge problem, we know that by looking at the outcomes, which is a legitimate thing to do. The way you balance any game is by looking at outcomes of all the players over a long enough time. When a player loudly cries out, "Don't look at the outcomes!" you can be sure he's gaming the system and the game isn't truly balanced.
You have to consider outcomes to know if opportunities are truly equal because social reality is too complex and nonlinear, so we need every data point we can get. This point is never understood nor acknowledged by right-wingers like Jordan Peterson.
A new study found that CT scans cause 5% of all cancer! That's a crazy stat. And these fucking doctors give out CT scans like candy and never tell you the risk.
One chest CT scan is equivalent to the radiation exposure from 1,750 hours of high altitude jet fight! That's nuts.
Read more here:
Do not get a CT scan unless you absolutely need it. MRI scans are far safer, so insist on MRI instead. A CT scan uses x-rays while MRI does not. A CT scan is just a super x-ray, using 10x more radiation than a standard x-ray. Ask for normal x-rays rather than CT scans to save yourself 10x the radiation.
This is serious God-Realization, not some enlightenment bullshit.
