Okay this thread is for everyone that's interested in knowing more about the actual proof of concept behind Pod'lair and what's being done about getting it across to the rest of the people. We're actually already taking measures for going in this direction and we're working on Ebooks on various Pod'Lair subject matter. So here are the details.
The Ebooks are going to be free, and given out to anyone for the purpose of giving outsiders all of the information that they would need to see the value of what we're doing. We are starting with a Nai'xyy Ebook, but right after that we're going to be releasing a Case Studies Ebook, which will be a dedicated manuscript specifically for proof of concept. In the Case Studies Ebook we'll be doing in depth dissecting different Mojo samples, we'll be doing a compare and contrast of other models (mainly beating up on them), and then even correcting the experts (From the MBTI circles and what not.)
As for peer review we're still at our beginning phases of show casing this theory, but we're literally sprinting toward getting the kind of facial recognition, or eye movement measurement technology, etc, that we need to make this theory completely empirical. Right now our empiricism stands very strong for those that can actually see it, but in order to do that, you have to
a.) Be open-minded enough to actually give trying to see it a shot.
b.) Be willing to develop the ability to see if if it is not coming to you as naturally as it does for others.
c.) and most importantly, not be a douche.
Until we have the right technology that can measure facial cues, then we're going to be at kind of an impasse in showing the layman that there is actually something there, that right there is the one thing that stands in our way in proving ourselves to everyone in such a way that leaves no room for doubt. Until that time comes, we'll mainly be marketing ourselves to the more open-minded, and naturally talented people of the world. However that is not to say we're completely dependent on technology to grant us a proof of concept that will close all doubt, because there are other things that we can do with just our human abilities that are completely unprecedented. One in particular, specifically for the advanced Mojo Readers, is that we can all look at the same person and read them the same way without even communicating to each other, the odds of that happening near a 100% of the time are highly unlikely. But that too does require us to grow a little more in order to actually get people to want to look at what we're doing, especially if we want to start pulling off feats like gathering thousands of Nai'xyy or Nyy'xai in one place to amp up that signal to point where you would have to be blind to miss it.
Right now, our peers are not properly equipped to review this theory. Without any of our proof of concept, peer review would be meaningless, and just plain misleading. It would be reviewing our theory from the perspective of a worldview where what we claim is happening, cannot happen. That kind of review is only a dismal based on what is in our peer's current reality. It's like Aubrey De Grey, many of his peers are giving him negative reviews, even though he actually has not even tried his hypothesis, so they really have no real grounds to claim that he's wrong, and they're only doing it because those that have tried to cure mortal life in the past have all failed. Although we're not entirely in that situation, because unlike us, Aubrey De Gray technically doesn't completely know if he's right yet. As a team, we know that we're not simply making unfounded hypotheses, we already know what our theory can do, we have seen it, and we use it ourselves everyday to astounding success and consistency. Example: one of our interns spent around a week training with us and it was a pretty intense Mojo Reading training boot camp for him. After he went home, he took the 'That 70's Show' Mojo Reading quiz, and got a perfect score, 100% correct. Probability shows that this kind of thing just can't happen unless there really is something there that we're seeing.
Now there are many ways someone can respond to that, like well they could be cheating or reacting to each others cues, they need a controlled experiment in a lab, blah blah blah. But what needs to be understood is that we're not running away from peer review and/or obtaining controlled empirical evidence. We're not one of those groups of people that know their theory is bullshit, and are shying away from going empirical because they know they can't. It's our goal to prove this theory to the world and we're pushing as hard as we can to have that goal met (without selling out and abandoning the deeper meaning behind the theory), however that goal needs to be rolled out in a order of events, and you actually can't expect it to roll out all at once. We're also not an academically funded research group, we're renegade theorists with an unprecedented discovery, and a message about the human condition that this discovery indicates. That's just the truth of the matter, and there's no need to hide that, or present Pod'Lair like this is an institutionalized psychological study, because that will just make people dismiss us as soon as they're hit with our revolutionary tone. What needs to be understood here is that in the end, it doesn't matter how a theory is presented, or the words that are chosen to be used. Making your theory look like it's superficially scientific, by seducing your audience using really smart sounding words and presentation is really just a tool for persuasion in itself. What matters most is what you can do with a theory, what predictions you can make with it, and how accurate those predictions can be, and Pod'Lair is a theory that has the potential for unprecedented prediction and application, and we're on an unyielding path to make that happen.
