  • Two potent totalitarian movements emerged in the 20th century: National Socialism and Communism. Both can be viewed as the consequence of existential angst and inauthenticity. Both were supported by the lie.

      nature itself No one (more or less) talks about the communist death camps because most of academia is left wing and is unhappy that the Soviets didn’t create a workers paradise... or the Chinese, Koreans, Vietnamese, Cambodians, Cubans, Zimbabweans, Angolans or Ethiopians. Instead of asking if the ideology is wrong, they come up with various copes; “it wasn’t real communism”, “its a good idea in theory”, “communists helped defeat/ weren’t as bad as the Nazis”, or they lie by omission. Another reason we don’t hear about the communist death camps is because the bandwidth is full of talking about the Nazi ones. I don’t have enough fingers or toes to count the number of times the Holocaust came up on the (UK) curriculum. There was that one time in year 8 English we read Animal farm, based on the Russian revolution. Our GCSE history teachers had the option to teach us about the Soviet Union, so instead we were taught Nazi Germany and the “failure of capitalism” (thank god I’ve now heard about the Austrian school of Econ) that was 1929. Education and academia are a disgrace.

Depression runs deep in his family and cuting all sugars, like all of them, including cereals (he also cuts diary and other things), helps him apparently. But you can't just go cold turkey because your brain is acustomed to sweetness (there is a distinct satiety neuron circuit for sweet food). Hence the diet coke. Well, at least I'm sure about these facts but I can only guess that is the reason.

Peterson is highly verbally intelligent with an intellectual quotient of about 150 which he had scored on the weschler spectrum, in intelligence, meaning in laymen’s terms that he’s about what most people would call a genius. As difficult as the principles are for him to articulate in his teachings, he does so because they’re vastly more important principles to be taught and understood by practically every individual the world over.

      That's not an example. That's an observation on how some people draw conclusions from little to no real evidence. You just slotted Peterson into that group of people and not assert that it must be true because Feynman is a high profile source. It's an appeal to authority.
      Human behaviour is not an exact science. Ten different people can respond in different ways to the exact same stimuli and, unless one has previous information on the personality traits of each individual, one can't know what their response will be. Instead, you make observations and try to establish trends in behaviour and try to find why these behaviours are the same and different. That's all that social sciences can do.
      Peterson has talked about male and female traits and has referred to statistics that show trends in their respective behaviours which overlap and differ. It's not an exact science because one can't accurately predict how a specific person will behave. One can make assumptions on statistical traits that have been extensively observed, but that's as far as one can go. That's not pseudo-science if you declare the inaccuracy rates and acknowledge the limitations of you data.
      Another example is how a doctor can predict death rates of an outbreak of a disease by saying the approximate percentage of those who will die. They'll base it on data gathered from previous outbreaks. It gives a ballpark figure, but one can't really know for sure. There is always room for error when your only source is data and variables are so varied that all can't be accounted for in a prediction.
      Now, back to a solid example of Peterson's preaching. One that refers to Peterson.

    • @JackHaveman52
      @JackHaveman52 Před 5 lety +15

      Boris B
      Your reference to Feynman was an appeal to authority. He's a very high profile scientific figure and his opinions carry weight. It's not as if you used Joe Blow down at the hardware store. You went to a Nobel Prize physicist who gave an opinion, then you placed Peterson into the category that this physicist talked about. That's the very definition of an appeal to authority.
      "I've thought about this for many years, and, though it's very hard to explain, I really believe it's true"
      What's this? A professor is NEVER allowed to give an opinion? He even implies that it's an idea that he's formulated. "I really believe it's true." That's not declaring it as fact. That's admitting that it's only him that believes it to be true.
      He does use statistics but he uses them as they should be. He has used them to show how personality trends differ in men and women. For example, he talked about asking, about a random woman and random man, which of the two would be the more aggressive and if you picked the man, you'd be correct 60 percent of the time. Then he added that 40 percent of the time, you'd be wrong. Why? Because that aligns with the statistical data. He didn't definitely say that men are more aggressive, period and end of story. He said that an assertion could only be applied correctly, 60 percent of the time. He then uses it to say that it means that the outliers of aggressiveness would tend to be overwhelmingly male and says that the facts do bear this out, for example, the predominance of the male population in prison.
      Peterson has declared himself to be a nominal Christian but he doesn't use those Christian beliefs as absolutes in his lectures. He uses them to show religious archetypes and tries to show how archetypes are developed in literature and religion to reflect and explain how humans have developed emotionally. He uses Christianity the most because that's what he's most familiar with, but he also uses other religious idea in his attempt to understand human psychological development. He presents it in such a way that a belief in a specific religion is necessary to understand how religious thought was a big part of human evolution of cognitive thought. Religious beliefs are not necessary to understand his ideas of archetypes in religion and it's not an exact science because he does use the phrase "I've thought about it a long time" continuously in his lectures. Psychology is a work in progress at all times and those in the field are trying to grapple with things that are difficult to nail down. Peterson is grappling with the psychology of religion and morality. There are no "Eureka!!!" moments in these disciplines. No definitive test tube results. There are indicators, like the Miller-Urey experiments that show that certain processes in the formation of life CAN happen naturally. It may not be the correct process but it does show the possibility to be true.
      You still haven't shown me an example of his preaching. Just because he became emotional when remembered some of the horrific cases that he's dealt with from his clinical practice, doesn't mean he's a preacher. It could just mean that he's human and has typical human emotions. It's an assertion that you have no way of proving but you like it because you've decided that you don't like the guy. Understandable maybe, but not exactly a valid assertion. A real example of his preaching.
      I like Michael Shermer and his ideas, a lot, but you're not showing me how they apply to Peterson. You see, that's where an actual example of what you're claiming would come in. That's how you show that you have something that might indicate what you say has a least some merit. It may not eliminate ALL that he's said but then again, no one is correct 100 percent of the time. One incorrect idea doesn't NOT invalidate everything a person says. We'd have to dismiss every assertion made using that as a criteria. Even Einstein made mistakes and offered claims that proved to be incorrect.

      ALFox - we’re in an actual war of ideas right now, in a country where, I fear, the majority of people don’t even know that it’s happening. I’m scared. Many institutions have fallen (though it may not be apparent, externally) to internal cultures that are based on towing a strict line of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)... whereby the internal meritocracy of the organization is being slowly replaced by intersectionality as its guiding force. This all seems rather benign to most, until they realize that the fabric of western civilization (equality of opportunity, meritocracy, democracy) is being systematically replaced by identity politics - in which people are placed in positions based on their color, gender, or sexual orientation. Watch Melanie Phillips’ interview with John Anderson (on youtube) - this is a slow, methodical, evolution of Marxism and it’s horrifying in how pervasive it’s become, how few people identify it as such (it’s a very complicated idea to convey), and how many people actually do agree with it. To SJWs, the world is simply about power: the power your group holds over another, or in the social currency (pity) you can generate by showing how oppressed your group has been over the ages (and thus the amount of power they should now be entitled to wield as some sort of social reparation for previous oppression). But what group, obsessed with power, that then obtains said control ever gave it up? Nor will they.

      yep. i'm a sam harris, richard dawkins and christopher hitchens fan. but i see now they have missed the mark a little bit. i now see the importance of religion as an accumulation and distillation of lessons about how to live a successful life in a human evolved society. i still don't believe in god, but i now understand and appreciate the accumulation of this essential knowledge. kicking myself i didn't realise this earlier. it seems so obvious. and JP is the only person who has articulated this for me. he should be more popular.

    I don't want to negate the value of the lecture but a few minor mistakes bother me: Hitler applied for the Vienna Academy not after World War I but years earlier. Hitler left Austria before quite a while before the war, dodging the Austrian military service. In 1914 he volunteered in Bavaria (as he wanted to fight for Germany not for the Austrian monarchy he detested). After the war he immediately went into politics, never returning to Austria until 1938.
    Also, Hitler never was "elected with a landslide majority". Even in the March 1933 elections, which were no longer fully free. His party didn't achieve a majority (though they were the largest party). Even his coalition government only barely scratched the 50% He then bullied parliament into handing the government legislative powers, which he used to do away with any remains of democracy.

Dr Thomas Sowell is the first time I read that Hitler won by a plurality of votes, not a majority landslide. Wonder why that distinction isn't made by different authors? I thought he applied, again. to the Vienna Academy after WW1? A very brief attempt as he started to attend the beer hall meetings and quickly became a sought after speaker. However, very few authors have ever asked what was being taught in the German universities at the time, considered the most educated country in the world then.

      DrBDiesel Frenzy Peterson himself would admit he’s not perfect. I don’t see any harm in politely mentioning possible oversights in knowledge on a specific topic. In another lecture about the lunacy of Global Warming, Peterson has said that a wooly mammoth was found frozen in Russia with undigested food in its mouth (which has HUGE implications) but that was incorrect . I’ve read the actual report from the scientists that discovered it and there is no mention of ANY undigested food. That invalidates a possible flash freeze and is a MAJOR factual oversight . Otherwise, I feel he is a brilliant man with an amazing sense of understanding.

You will go down in history as not only the smartest man who ever lived but also someone who had more wisdom then Could Be Imagined. My wife and I are both X addicts and I am an ex-con.

Sorry for the bad grammar if there is any. I think it's important when sending someone like you a message that you make it is grammatically correct as possible out of respect but I'm messaging you from a cell phone and it's hard to go over what I've already wrote. I'd like to know there's a possible way that you could start some kind of online sort of college courses that we could pay for and go to couple times of week I know for myself that would be worth all the money in the world, just based on what I've learned already from you. I wish you and your family a blessed and Healthy Future God bless.

      Yes that was my second interpretation when I thought about the context. Honestly i felt embarrassed that it wasnt my first. Because that interpretation is more accurate. But then i started thinking about the first interpretation that I had again. When i initially thought about what Jung mean't, I thought about what made a leader a true leader. Why was it that "true leaders do not lead, they are led?" I came to the conclusion from my experience andn consumptions of stories that it was because a true leader isnt really a leader like what most leaders are, but they are followers of not others, but themselves. And not themselves consciously, but something that comes from within, so subtle and nuanced that it can barely be noticed. An ideal, a dream, a string of ideas constructed based on all their past memories telling a story or pattern to them. Something that holds them to a higher peak as if there's something greater, above the clouds, which allows them to be capable of seeing everything or have the sensation as if they are seeing everything. So to reiterated, my thoughts, what distinguishes a great leader and a true leader whom both thinks, rationalize, plans, considers emotions as a secondary importance but "importance" nonetheless and acts in the highest competance, is that true leaders are followers. They submit themselves to something that is there yet out of reach of all our sense. Something that draws them.
      And this is my conjecture that Jung didn't attribute his sentence, "true leaders do not lead, they are led" with negative connotations. To me that seems too simple. Although the circumstance of how he learned what he uttered was definitely horrible and evil. That Jung was merely stating an observation into what makes a true leader. Good or Bad.
      Just fyi, I know what I say here can be interpreted by some and some "purposely for whatever reason" as defending Nazism. Please dont see it that simply. These people, Jung, Rogers, Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, and etc are all very intelligent. What they say contain more meanings and "implicit meanings" than will ever meet the eyes.

    • @Tain_edReaper
      @Tain_edReaper Před 4 lety +1

      LOL. Just to be clear, I'm not defending Nazism again. I think the german people in the early 20th century went through bad times after the first war, which caused all sorts of crisises. They wanted out of the suffering so desperately that accepting any ideology, that would create order in a time of chaos was preferable. Even if the ideology is evil. And the more resentful the ideology, the better. All I'm trying to say about my previous statement, is that it walks a fine line and can be viewed as defending by those who wish to see it that way. Because it's nuanced.

      @@nwchrista
      First: If Peterson uses nonsensical terms to talk to his audience, then he wouldnt have an audience. Especially since the issues he discussed are more than controversial and almost at one point a tabooed subject. Hence the deplatform culture, censureship through social mob and academic corruption. Furthermore, when his terms "seem" nonsensical to those who dont get it, what remedies this situation is, if asked, he gives further detailed explanations to provide a greater understanding while narrowing the scope of interpretations.
      Second: As I said above, he gives explanations that narrow the scope of interpretations when his initial statement isn't clear enough. Sometimes he does it on his own but mostly through prompts, such as follow up questions. The issue isnt what Peterson says can have multiple interpretations, but what is the most canonical set of interpretations. What is most fitting or correct. And I can demonstrate it technically that not all interpretations are valid. For example, a very wrong interpretation here on his lecture is that he supports Hitler's attempt to commit race genocide or Stalin's population control camps is the way to go to slow climate change or that capitalism is the worst form of economic government. Finally, your criticism on the issue you've stated where what Peterson says has multiple interpretations is a moot point. That issue isn't distinctively just a Peterson issue. Somehow you think that's the case and therefore used it as a criticism but that's an issue that regards all forms of human communication.
      Third: I can't really say much about what your writing here. It is true that history can be manipulated by the victor. But, that is if the victor decides to manipulate history and if the circumstances permits. There is plenty of evidence that Nazi Germany was what it was. We have it recorded in multiple countries which all can also have there own biases of the events or patrotism in their versions. But the events still occured in those multitude of records. But really, just because the events took place a long time ago doesnt make our records of it more or less true. If you push what you're saying all the way through, that's what you're arguing. I dont understand how that conclusion could be reached.

      Very cool to be passionate about complex and important matters. I would agree about taking some time to be a teen. But the world, with more than its share of gullible brainwashed man-children, also needs some young people to take notice of what occurs around them and to affect positive change.

      Here's a huge tip that will serve you well in the future and I urge to adopt as quickly as you can. Just quit the word "passion." Disown it. Disavow it. Castigate it. If forced to address it or one of your children will be tortured to death in front of you, then and only then you can refer to it as the "P-word".
      Good luck and fortune to you with your ambitious plans.

      cseeger1 I don't disagree or anything but can you provide a reason? Why is it useful to abolish the word "passion"?

      It's a drivel word. It's the sort of thing that is said by people who think that saying they are going to do something is the same as having done the thing.
      People who are truly entangled are not passionate, they are obsessed. If they're not doing it, they're thinking about doing it.
      Passion is emotion not your BFF interest. To be passionate is to be barely in control of an emotion.
      About ten years ago, somebody cool misused the word to mean a potential career interest that could be exhilarating and fulfilling and provide meaning and purpose in my life and it will beam out of me, piercing rays of cool that shine outward in every direction, a self evident truth to all....I AM SPECIAL. It sounded really cool and two other almost as cool people started using it. Then four, 16, 32, 64....
      The Ramones were so poor touring on the road they wore jeans that had holes in the knees and in the crotch. They didn't care. Their confident attitude suggested it was a fashion statement. It was defiant, it was different, they were cool, jeans with holes at the knees was also cool. Followers adopted the hole jeans and punks of all variety did too and the skaters and in the high schools and colleges.. Before you know it everybody was wearing jeans with holes in the knees. Then Walmart started selling jeans with holes in the knees and surburban middle aged dads were wearing them and talking about their passion at the neighborhood backyard barbeque and those damn property taxes...always going up I swear.

    Factual clarification on one one point. Hiter was never elected president. Hindenburg's 1933 reelection failed to prevent the NSDAP from assuming power. Two successive federal elections later that year left it as the largest party in the Reichstag and anti Weimar parties in the majority. Under this political climate, Hindenburg appointed Hitler as Chancellor of Germany in January 1933. Upon Hindenburg's death in 1934 Hitler de facto assumed the presidency, which he combined with the chancellorship to become the Führer und Reichskanzler.

      When did this become about a persons life? anyways the fact you think I said anything relevant to that or the fact you think that was what Jordans "main direction" was its fractually wrong its too much work. He's all over the place talking about random shit that is LITERALLY not coorelated to anything other than it has something somewhere to do with a mind/politics/.....not even going to finish this. Trust me I was gung ho about this guy when I saw his interview with Cathy....I came to the channel only to see a blithering idiot that says random shit and references some way he translated some mythology to coorelate with psychology. i could translate it to a food recipe. He's totally full of hot air and in the end I ask myself...what did I learn here....NOTHING..EVER...from ANY of his videos....I listen...I understand English...though its all buzzwords and bigwords and elegant amazing formation of 10 minutes of common sense expanded into 1 hour of acting. Come on dude... if you think this guy is worth listening to .... you must be truly dirt under the commonplace persons foot to think that he has something to offer you. You are worth more than this guy's time. I've watched 10 of his vids...that's like 40 hours....Nothing...Nothing new...just awesome ways of saying simple shit.

    This was a great lecture, Dr. Peterson. Thank you for providing this for free, as it was truly elucidating for to me, who truly believes that the observable universe is all there is. You provided a reasonable argument against trusting that observation. Thank you for being one of the better college professors, who isn't afraid to say the truth despite the preferred narrative.
