If you forget to listen critically to his content, and only rely on his non-verbal communication (some reseach states that this makes 93% of the impact!), then one would get a completely wrong idea about him. I don't doubt that he gets a lot of women, even in his fifties.
His attitude is total darkworker stuff. He is all about power. And submission of the women he is with is just part of that. It's all pleasant interesting conversation in the vid, and yet there are 3 moments in which he shows his true colours: somewhere in the vid het states that he has had 5 or 6 cars from women and he cheated on his girlfriend. Also he states near the end that his motvation is that he wants to control other people.
Of course he doesn't mention the drawbacks of his approach: I'm sure he is always lonely as he can never show a weakness (that would diminish his power over others). His whole life he will be struggling and striving, because there will aways be others that are also powerful, not to mention the women in his life that he needs to dominate all the time. And what will happen in his old age?
I'm not saying that being powerful is wrong. Being powerful is very good. But only when it serves a purpose greater than one's ego and is aligned with love and truth. At least, that is my take on it. |
Sounds like a very accurate interpretation Pequod.
I've decided that I don't like to think of people as being darkworkers or lightworkers, but if you want to view things in that way then Player Supreme is most definitely a darkworker.
Although some part of me will always yearn to be able to have that sort of total power over women and be able to pick up wherever I go, another part says that this just isn't me, and it's not something that I feel is worth devoting my life to or changing who I am as a person. However, after listening to so much of his content, I eventually began to detect an underlying theme that seemed to go beyond the archetypal darkworker mentality. This is because he espouses a lot of the same messages that Steve does (abeit usually with a rather different focus): the LoA, developing courage, improving social skills and speaking ability, even what one might think of as a form of empathy towards women - getting inside their heads, so to speak. And that underlying message (what he calls "becoming a real man") is what really resonated with me.
