⭕️ Que jodido es para una sectaria (dotada de una irracionalidad consciente o inconsciente) escuchar a alguien que se maneja a sus anchas en el tan inexplorado como vasto campo del sentido común.

Mi profundo agradecimiento al Primer Ministro de Portugal, @LMontenegro_PT, por una excelente y productiva conversación.
La gran comunidad luso venezolana, en Portugal y en Venezuela, ha contribuido enormemente, por generaciones, al desarrollo de nuestro país. La mayoría de los que han tenido que partir quieren volver a una nación democrática, como hoy me lo expresaron en las calles de Lisboa.
Gracias, @LMontenegro_PT, por su apoyo firme a la causa por la Libertad y a la transición democrática en Venezuela!
Querida Cayetana, amiga de mil batallas, agradezco inmensamente tu cariño, tu apoyo y la valentía de tus posiciones. Los venezolanos tenemos en ti una gran aliada cuya determinación será siempre recordada con mucha gratitud. Me ha emocionado mucho tu abrazo en Madrid.
En estos días he asistido a un par de encuentros con @MariaCorinaYA en Madrid, y he tenido la ocasión de poder saludarla en persona.
Hay algunas cosas de ella que me han llamado mucho la atención. 🧵:
Clarísimo discurso de @MariaCorinaYA en Madrid: "Hay algunos que ahora pretenden decirnos que Venezuela no está lista para elecciones (...) Hasta hace poco había algunos actores que insistían que había que acatar cada vez que el régimen inventaba una elección fraudulenta. Todos decían que había que salir corriendo a hacerle la farsa al régimen. Cuando nosotros denunciábamos el fraude, nos decían que éramos abstencionistas. Resulta que el 28 de julio desmontamos el fraude y ahora esos mismos que querían que fuéramos a votar con fraude no quieren votar sin fraude. ¿Qué tal? Ahora que no va a haber fraude porque lo desmontamos y porque tenemos el apoyo de Estados Unidos asegurándose que sea un proceso transparente, entonces ahora no quieren elecciones. Por eso yo lo digo: si ustedes quieren saber quién está con el régimen y quién no, es muy fácil, solo pregúntenle si quieren o no quieren elecciones. Ahí está la respuesta".
Este es el discurso completo de María Corina Machado en Madrid. Si no es el mejor, es sin duda uno de los mejores que ha dado.
Si todavía no lo ha hecho, escúchelo. Y, más importante aún, compártalo.
Seremos libres porque así lo hemos decidido. Y será a la venezolana.

Estos 3 minutos de Elvira Roca es lo más sensato que he escuchado sobre la pretendida guerra de sexos.
Jordan Peterson: "People don't have mental illnesses, they have lives too complicated to manage"
"I actually think complexity is the fundamental problem. The terror management theorists think that death is the fundamental problem, and that's a good argument, because it is definitely a fundamental problem. But I think death is a subset of the complexity problem."
Peterson explains why:
"Sometimes people's lives become so complex that they'd rather be dead. The reason they seek death through suicide is to make the complexity go away. Because complexity causes suffering if it's uncontrolled. Things just get beyond your control."
He describes how this happens:
"You get hit by three or four catastrophes at the same time. Maybe the political system collapses. There's hyperinflation. You lose your job. Someone you love dies, or two people die. Maybe you get cancer. These things happen to people. And they just think: there's no getting out of this. It's just too much."
Peterson shares what he learned as a psychologist:
"One of the things that's very interesting about being a psychologist is what you learn: people come to you with mental illnesses, and that's almost never true. People come to you because their lives are so damn complicated they cannot stay on top of them in any way that doesn't make it look like they're just going to get more complicated. And then that causes symptoms."
He uses a metaphor for genetic susceptibility:
"Take a balloon and blow it up until it's beyond its tolerance. It's going to blow out at the weakest point. That's sort of what genetic susceptibility is. If I just keep adding complexity on top of you, at some point you'll blow out at your weakest point.
Maybe you'll get physiologically ill. Maybe you'll start drinking. Maybe you'll develop an anxiety disorder. Maybe you'll get OCD. Maybe you'll get depressed. Whatever, there'll be something about you that's the weakest point. If I just push, that's where you blow out."
Peterson reframes what we call "mental illness":
"Those things almost never just happen. Sometimes, but not very often. Usually, people have just been hammered two or three different ways, and then they collapse in the direction of their biological weakness. Then maybe you put them back together. But it's almost always a complexity-related phenomenon rather than a mental illness-related phenomenon. Not always, but almost always."
Jordan Peterson said something that keeps echoing in my head:
Life is full of suffering. We make it worse with our own stupidity, blindness, and sometimes outright malevolence.
The antidote isn’t chasing rights or chasing pleasure.
The deepest meaning most people ever find comes from voluntarily taking on heavy responsibility — for yourself, your family, your community. The heavier the load, the more meaningful it becomes.
It’s a hard truth, but once you hear it, it feels self-evident.
In a world obsessed with comfort and self-indulgence, this idea hits like a gut punch… and a quiet call to action at the same time.
What’s one responsibility you’ve taken on that ended up giving your life more meaning than you expected?
I have never understood, and still do not understand, why people loathe Jordan Peterson. For me, he is the most compelling philosopher of the 21st century. His ideas have reshaped how the modern man, particularly in the West, sees himself. And this is not even limited to the West. Any sensible young man can recognize the value in his thinking; lessons that, if practiced as he presents them, have the power to turn one’s life around.
