Jordan Peterson is a POS who alternates between being a crypto-fascist and a waffling grifter whose banal, useless advice is somehow seen as clever, presumably due to his (irrelevant) qualifications in psychology, and tendency to use formal language, often to such an extent that he just waffles on and on. As for his lectures, he has referred to the 3rd reich as the 4th - a common neo nazi reference to the continuation of the original nazism which ended in 1945 - , asking “why would you assume hitler wanted to win?”, acting as if Jewish people and other “undesirables” weren’t forced to work, etc. He has also claimed that nazi Germany was somehow an atheistic state, even though atheists were killed for not believing in any deity or deities. So no, his lectures aren’t any better. He also thinks that Jews are over represented in the media - a common (erroneous) nazi conspiracy - and this is why they perform better in IQ tests, even though 1. IQ is garbage as a measure and 2. It was created to justify racism, by racists. He has praised Milo Yiannopoulos (even after his pro-pedophilia comments came out, though even before then, he was still far-right PoS, so there aren’t any excuses either way), appeared on Stefan Molyneux’s show - a known far right deplorable POS, “race scientist”, etc. who has been banned from all mainstream platforms due to the aforementioned - AND has agreed with him on certain matters such as IQ differences between the races - a favourite talking point of the far-right to justify things like racial segregation. He has also been on Lauren Southern’s show, likewise a far right POS who, for example, attempted to stop refugee ships from entering Europe. He has appeared on Ben Shapiro and Stephen Crowder’s shows multiple times, both of which having had Gavin McInnes - leader of the far-right paramilitary group The Proud Boys - on their shows. He also promotes the far-right, extremely antisemitic “cultural Marxism” conspiracy theory on numerous occasions, and believes that women wear makeup purely for sexual-purposes - an entirely false statement - and as such, they should not complain if they are sexually harassed while wearing make up. The only “good” he is doing is promoting far-right and conservative ideas - everyone who disagrees with a conservative is a Marxist, certain college courses should be banned, women are manipulative beings whose only purpose is to engage in sexual acts and to be a maid, etc. This is good for turning normies into misogynistic fascists, and nothing else. Even when he isn’t being a fascist POS, his self-help advice is extremely banal grifting purely intended to make himself wealthier; and to radicalise more people because he often interpolates basic advice with conservative ideas and such. All of the evidence points to Peterson’s being on the far-right - this is simply how it is. I - and all of the others - who rightfully condemn him as a member of the far-right have looked at all of the evidence against him and have thus quite easily determined that he is, in fact, a member of the far-right.

Growing plants and learning to be more caring to people and everything helped me a lot and I realized is you put out negative thoughts and think the world is shit You will realize it is but if you focus on putting out goodness and love you will receive it like what ever energy you put into the universe comes back to you
Same. I almost never respond emotionally to youtube videos but this one brought tears to my eyes bc it's like he's speaking about me, telling me what i need to hear
Yup. I need to find that. 100% suicidal, no meaning, no purpose. Awful to have to keep fighting daily to just get up & wash, eat, work, sleep, repeat. No family, no friends, no money. Just keep going though :-)
You forgot that responsibility is supposed to be balanced with to your right, if you have too much responsibility, then either share it or just let it go and take responsibility for things you can take on, the message is not about the amount of responsibility, it's to have purpose in life
and yet he says it all in this TH-cam short. you sound like you want a handy, well-defined label which can be treated quickly and easily. what JP is saying is that this isn't how any of it works... the only thing that works is balancing your life so that you aim towards something that you consider to be good and important. pursuing it in the right way, and doing it honestly

That’s what I’ve always been saying. People these days really don’t have a “higher purpose” that’s why we see all these dumb movements and such, they’re here to just give people something larger than themselves that they can dedicate themselves to.
I've had this problem for a few years but I don't know how to find it. I have next to no family, I moved around so much growing up I never had long term friends. I feel like everywhere I step is a dead-end. I feel like I just don't know anymore.
I’m in the same boat man for a few years lately as well I’ve had responsibilities and burdens and when I think of adding more of it’ makes me feel worse and even more anxious and depressed I know Peterson knows way more about me but idk honestly if what he says is the answer I might just call it quits cause I don’t know anymore either feel what your feelin brother but maybe we’ll make it through keep pushin man🫡
My son is having a hard time. No friends. His boss and my son are alcoholics. Driving drunk and drinking every day. Now, numerous seizures. I just witnessed my first seizure with my son this week. I thought he was dying. He lives all alone. I have been visiting him for a while. 3 weeks now. Have to leave. Which I don't want to. I have my grandkids to go home to from my daughter.😢
i was anxious on a semi regular bases, until my teamleader at work retired and the deputy teamleader who was pretty new asked me to help her out and take on the role of deputy teamleader when she wasn´t around. this challenge and responsibility help my mental state tremendously. some of my coworkers still are questioning why i was chosen out of spite, despite being the last to join being only 21 years old. but i was chosen because my teamleader knew she can rely on me and she trusts me. so i´ll keep moving foward

@@souldanny. "Teachings"...I mean, he's not trying to be a Bible prophet or something. He just shares his perception based on both anecdotal experience from being a Psychologist for his clients, Professor, and Reading lots of data from scientific literature. Why call it a "slippery slope". What might one "slip" into if you listen to some advice that has had some deep thinking behind it? I have listen to much of his advice and I haven't slipped into anything nefarious or something like that.
I handle budgets of millions of dollars so I'm pretty sure I got more responsibility than most. No, doc, what I'm missing is a family. Career, money, social status, I have it all and it's meaningless. Everything else is meaningless.
Hit the nail directly on the head!! We HAVE to get out of the house and get involved in something meaningful. The disconnect is what makes us feel untethered.
There was a man who constantly sufferred. It was always too hot or too cold. Had too much of this but not enough of that. And then death came, and took him away. Joy does not die with childhood. And learning does not stop after leaving school. The potential for growth and change is infinite. Even better when you can attain it without war.

If there isnt something there that is more important to you than you, being truly happy will be very very difficult.

That time came in October 2020. We were all locked down. I had already made arrangements to retire from the Army after 21 years, in 31 October. My husband unexpectedly passed away due to medical mistakes on the 26th! Talk about serious life changes... I almost committed suicide, the pain and loneliness were so overwhelming. I had completely given my life to the Lord Almighty some years before. What pulled me back from that cliff, was the knowledge that I don't have the power to give myself life, and my life doesn't belong to me. Therefore I don't have the right to take it away. My time to go into eternity will come. In the meantime, I have work to do, and I have the promise of joy. It's coming.
My dear friend, I’m 67 and have been in assisted living for 2 years for multiple sclerosis. I was a teacher for 20 years. When I arrived here I was desperate for purpose. I watched your psychological series of biblical stories. It led me to studying once more, after 20 years of not purposefully reading nonfiction. I’ve now read and studied 30 non-fiction books about church history. My hope is that everything I read with purpose, will stay with me in my life and my life to come. My many thanks for your encouragement and knowledge. ❤
That is SO true. Life will throw the most unexpected curve balls your way and yes you will go through a period of feeling quite helpless but if you have that inner meaning in your life it lifts you, you accept the challenge and then find a way to make the best of it and move forward. It gives you resilience. I remember my sister in law saying to me when I developed an auto immune disorder of Alopecia Areata, at the time I was Alopecia Unversalis, like a plucked chicken - not a hair in sight: 'but you seem so happy?'. I was well, what else must I be? I've cried my tears, I have mourned the loss of my luscious locks. I stopped asking why me and asked why NOT me? It's turned out to be such a blessing of inner growth. Yes the storms hit, but you learn to rise higher the storm, pull out your figurative surf board and ride those frothy white horse high waves. After my dad's alcoholic death when I was six it was a tsunami storm, but My mom pulled me, my brother, her mom through it without going losing her marbles. I've asked her before - how did you do it? And her reply was, well Leazy I didn't really have much of a choice. Your life is what YOU make of it. And yes technically I'm half deaf but the amazing technology of my hearing aids is mind blowing to me. Mine are the Phonak Vitus and they give me 3d hearing, I can hear birds again, I can communicate and connect with people again. My audiologist can't guarantee whether or not my hearing will get worse or not or at what rate it will. If it hits severe and I have to have cochlear implants - well then so be it. I'll walk around with magnets in my head - just don't get my head too close to the fridge door in case it gets stuck to it...😄
You nailed it , lam going thru a storm and it's hit me in my heart and now l have to accept the situation and restrain myself through getting through my routine l had before.😍
He's right. A lot of us just don't know what meaningful responsibility to adopt. When the chips are down we always muscle through, problems arise when we get complacent and no longer know the direction. That's what the issue is for many, we look at a compass and scratch our heads
I love this man vocabulary no matter what you have to think about what he is saying and that is how you capture an audience I love when he answers someone who is trying to trap him and he turns it around and traps them. Now he is one of the best in what he is trained in.
Life is awesome, and scary, enjoy it and dread it, struggle teaches you how many punches you can take, for me that is awesome, struggle is freaking awesome.
As a man in his 30s with no wife and no children finding meaningful purpose outside of just providing for my self is finding joy in helping others and watching my garden grow and making sure the ones I love have plenty of organic food.
That's right. If there are no challenges to overcome, all the luxuries and comfort quickly becomes your prison, there cant be constant quick dopamine and reward high And living without higher purpose makes You weak, obedient and easy target to all who works with greater purpose.
I have responsibilities and still feel anxious as hell, having panic attacks, unwanted thoughts, etc and have been like that my whole life nearly. Not having my dad is really fucking me up.
I'm in the same boat, lost my dad back in February of 2022 and my whole life and perception on life and time has flipped in a bad way, and it seems I'm not gonna be able to bounce back from this one..each day gets worse for me, I hope you figure it out man..be safe..
@@zotiac1231 I know saying sorry for your loss isn't good enough. Somebody who you knew and loved your whole life is just gone. I get jealous of people who still have both their parents. How stupid is that.
I've thought about this for a while: When people aren't in enough physical danger (threat of violence against you) it's almost impossible to not get depressed.
All the help we have by therapy, phycology and the amount of self help books basically deal with the symptoms. But JP goes directly to the causes. Ya got to love this guy. And at the same time constantly dealing with his detractors.

Yeah me too. Just ignore some things you disagree with and accept anything that is helpful.
Rescuing animals saved me from suicide. I'm still depressed but it's what keeps me going and gives my life meaning.
Growing plants and learning to be more caring to people and everything helped me a lot and I realized is you put out negative thoughts and think the world is shit You will realize it is but if you focus on putting out goodness and love you will receive it like what ever energy you put into the universe comes back to you
This person looked right into my life, without even looking and said exactly what i was missing ... restraint.
Same. I almost never respond emotionally to youtube videos but this one brought tears to my eyes bc it's like he's speaking about me, telling me what i need to hear
When he was talking about rights and said You have more then you should that shit really needs to be heard
Yeah. Transphobes especially.
Yup. I need to find that. 100% suicidal, no meaning, no purpose. Awful to have to keep fighting daily to just get up & wash, eat, work, sleep, repeat. No family, no friends, no money. Just keep going though :-)
I got tons of responsibility, and sacrifice ..... And I still feel depressed anxious and nihilistic 😢.
You forgot that responsibility is supposed to be balanced with to your right, if you have too much responsibility, then either share it or just let it go and take responsibility for things you can take on, the message is not about the amount of responsibility, it's to have purpose in life
Jordan Peterson is like the psychiatrist you wish would just tell you whats wrong with you, and not keeping you in therapy for years.
dude takes 20 minutes to ask where the bathroom is
If you need someone to tell you what’s wrong then I’d start there.
and yet he says it all in this TH-cam short. you sound like you want a handy, well-defined label which can be treated quickly and easily. what JP is saying is that this isn't how any of it works... the only thing that works is balancing your life so that you aim towards something that you consider to be good and important. pursuing it in the right way, and doing it honestly
@@manfrombritain6816 lol jp is addicted to Twitter and benzos. He's lame as shit
Not like. Is.
I love and respect this man. He has a bravery in his words that everyone should hear. God help us all .
No he doesn’t - he’s a stupid person’s idea of a smart person. Jordan Peterson is a POS who alternates between being a crypto-fascist and a waffling grifter whose banal, useless advice is somehow seen as clever, presumably due to his (irrelevant) qualifications in psychology, and tendency to use formal language, often to such an extent that he just waffles on and on. As for his lectures, he has referred to the 3rd reich as the 4th - a common neo nazi reference to the continuation of the original nazism which ended in 1945 - , asking “why would you assume hitler wanted to win?”, acting as if Jewish people and other “undesirables” weren’t forced to work, etc. He has also claimed that nazi Germany was somehow an atheistic state, even though atheists were killed for not believing in any deity or deities. So no, his lectures aren’t any better. He also thinks that Jews are over represented in the media - a common (erroneous) nazi conspiracy - and this is why they perform better in IQ tests, even though 1. IQ is garbage as a measure and 2. It was created to justify racism, by racists.

That’s what I’ve always been saying. People these days really don’t have a “higher purpose” that’s why we see all these dumb movements and such, they’re here to just give people something larger than themselves that they can dedicate themselves to.
I Love this guy so much🎉❤😊
Life is pain, life is challenge. Growth is knowledge, knowledge is limitation, responsibility is sacrifice for the other.
I took on responsibilities and got crushed under the weight of it. Now I'm depressed, anxious and nihilistic
Same
Did you take on responsibilities you really wanted to take on, or did you take the closest ones available, or the ones others expected you to?
I've had this problem for a few years but I don't know how to find it. I have next to no family, I moved around so much growing up I never had long term friends. I feel like everywhere I step is a dead-end. I feel like I just don't know anymore.
I’m in the same boat man for a few years lately as well I’ve had responsibilities and burdens and when I think of adding more of it’ makes me feel worse and even more anxious and depressed I know Peterson knows way more about me but idk honestly if what he says is the answer I might just call it quits cause I don’t know anymore either feel what your feelin brother but maybe we’ll make it through keep pushin man🫡
Christ is meaning
Get married to a lovely person, you'll have a lovely family to join.
How are we supposed to find our purpose if we’re nihilistic?
My son is having a hard time. No friends. His boss and my son are alcoholics. Driving drunk and drinking every day. Now, numerous seizures. I just witnessed my first seizure with my son this week. I thought he was dying. He lives all alone. I have been visiting him for a while. 3 weeks now. Have to leave. Which I don't want to. I have my grandkids to go home to from my daughter.😢
i was anxious on a semi regular bases, until my teamleader at work retired and the deputy teamleader who was pretty new asked me to help her out and take on the role of deputy teamleader when she wasn´t around. this challenge and responsibility help my mental state tremendously. some of my coworkers still are questioning why i was chosen out of spite, despite being the last to join being only 21 years old. but i was chosen because my teamleader knew she can rely on me and she trusts me. so i´ll keep moving foward
He really makes a different among us.
And that's why I love my daughter more than anything on this earth. That baby girl changed my life so fast and put me on a better path.
JP is literally saving my life and mental health repeatedly year by year.❤
Don't adhere to all of his views because he is still limited by his current political leanings. I have consumed 88% of his content, including his paid courses. Be careful, wolves hid behind nice clothes sometimes.

@@3rdeyelife234thats ypur opinion. Just like some of the things he says and teaches are his opinions. That doesnt make him a wolf. Always take everything you learn from others with a grain of salt. Think for yourself and decide what you want to believe in.
Fact is, much/most of what he teaches is fact and helps millions. Who here can say the same
@@3rdeyelife234 Be careful to call someone a wolf in sheep's clothing...that's quite the statement that could make the accuser look like a hypocrite.
@@souldanny. "Teachings"...I mean, he's not trying to be a Bible prophet or something. He just shares his perception based on both anecdotal experience from being a Psychologist for his clients, Professor, and Reading lots of data from scientific literature. Why call it a "slippery slope". What might one "slip" into if you listen to some advice that has had some deep thinking behind it? I have listen to much of his advice and I haven't slipped into anything nefarious or something like that.
I handle budgets of millions of dollars so I'm pretty sure I got more responsibility than most. No, doc, what I'm missing is a family. Career, money, social status, I have it all and it's meaningless. Everything else is meaningless.
You didn't listen. MEANINGFUL responsibility. He meant something beyond your job and money. Rarely is job success sustaining.
Um having a family is already having a responsibility. And it's very meaningful
Love you JP. Great attitude. Help us to see ourselves truthfully
Hit the nail directly on the head!! We HAVE to get out of the house and get involved in something meaningful. The disconnect is what makes us feel untethered.
My meaning in life is to not create more life and bring helpless creatures into this hellscape.

Precisely. You value nothing when it's freely available & readily given at your every whim. Go get some grit & gumption. LIVE this life. You only have one chance at it. Go THRIVE. I've never had more satisfaction & reward as I do right now in struggle & challenge. And it's amazing.
I have news for ya’ just as many people if not more are going crazy who hold those beliefs because they see the world as crumbling about them and see no magical cloud man coming to help. What you are suggesting is to fool yourself into a illusory happiness based on one perception of our reality.

He said to take on responsibility bro thats it
@@el7284 it is
No he’s not saying that here. Everyone needs some kind of higher responsibility to motivate you, whether you’re religious or atheist.
These are pearls of wisdom !!!
I was floating through life, got married started to get dialed in my son came along and I am laser focused on what needs to be done to make sure my family is safe and have what they need. If there isnt something there that is more important to you than you, being truly happy will be very very difficult.

This is spot on. Indeed, God help me... Actually, no, I'll help myself.
This is too real, im going through a lot and this helps hearing words of acknowledgement
An eye opener- this particular video motivated me to make life altering changes
It takes mental health problems to become suicidal, not simply struggling through life. Your purpose is caring for what or whom brings you joy.
I do believe that , when you 100% love a person and the person dies , you WILL go depressed, otherwise you didn't love that person that died died 100% 😢
@@johnnyholtzhausen3493 It’s devastating when a loved one passes, but it’s an inevitable part of life. You have to keep going, and you know the person would want you to have a happy life. You’ll never forget them, but you have to move keep it moving.
Or you have realized that the place that you have lived for too long is what it is and have found a reason to live elsewhere many different libations but are restrained from going to those locations
Hahahaha. I'm laughing because I too have finally come to that realisation. A few more bills to pay and I'm out of here. 👍

Thank you
Let's not forget the very important detail here; A MEANINGFUL RESPONSIBILITY
Perhaps the most straight-up truth in our day and age . If we are in the head space to hear the beauty in this man's content, we are very very fortunate .
That time came in October 2020. We were all locked down. I had already made arrangements to retire from the Army after 21 years, in 31 October. My husband unexpectedly passed away due to medical mistakes on the 26th! Talk about serious life changes... I almost committed suicide, the pain and loneliness were so overwhelming. I had completely given my life to the Lord Almighty some years before. What pulled me back from that cliff, was the knowledge that I don't have the power to give myself life, and my life doesn't belong to me. Therefore I don't have the right to take it away. My time to go into eternity will come. In the meantime, I have work to do, and I have the promise of joy. It's coming.
It started in the 1960's with my generation's do what feels good without restraint. Now the grandchildren really need Jordan's advice.
My dear friend, I’m 67 and have been in assisted living for 2 years for multiple sclerosis. I was a teacher for 20 years. When I arrived here I was desperate for purpose. I watched your psychological series of biblical stories. It led me to studying once more, after 20 years of not purposefully reading nonfiction. I’ve now read and studied 30 non-fiction books about church history. My hope is that everything I read with purpose, will stay with me in my life and my life to come. My many thanks for your encouragement and knowledge. ❤
That is SO true. Life will throw the most unexpected curve balls your way and yes you will go through a period of feeling quite helpless but if you have that inner meaning in your life it lifts you, you accept the challenge and then find a way to make the best of it and move forward. It gives you resilience. I remember my sister in law saying to me when I developed an auto immune disorder of Alopecia Areata, at the time I was Alopecia Unversalis, like a plucked chicken - not a hair in sight: 'but you seem so happy?'. I was well, what else must I be? I've cried my tears, I have mourned the loss of my luscious locks. I stopped asking why me and asked why NOT me? It's turned out to be such a blessing of inner growth. Yes the storms hit, but you learn to rise higher the storm, pull out your figurative surf board and ride those frothy white horse high waves. After my dad's alcoholic death when I was six it was a tsunami storm, but My mom pulled me, my brother, her mom through it without going losing her marbles. I've asked her before - how did you do it? And her reply was, well Leazy I didn't really have much of a choice. Your life is what YOU make of it. And yes technically I'm half deaf but the amazing technology of my hearing aids is mind blowing to me. Mine are the Phonak Vitus and they give me 3d hearing, I can hear birds again, I can communicate and connect with people again. My audiologist can't guarantee whether or not my hearing will get worse or not or at what rate it will. If it hits severe and I have to have cochlear implants - well then so be it. I'll walk around with magnets in my head - just don't get my head too close to the fridge door in case it gets stuck to it...😄
You nailed it , lam going thru a storm and it's hit me in my heart and now l have to accept the situation and restrain myself through getting through my routine l had before.😍
He's right. A lot of us just don't know what meaningful responsibility to adopt. When the chips are down we always muscle through, problems arise when we get complacent and no longer know the direction. That's what the issue is for many, we look at a compass and scratch our heads
I love this man vocabulary no matter what you have to think about what he is saying and that is how you capture an audience I love when he answers someone who is trying to trap him and he turns it around and traps them.
Now he is one of the best in what he is trained in.
Never suicidal
but yet still concerned for the future of our society
Every kid needs to hear this message!!!!!
Life is awesome, and scary, enjoy it and dread it, struggle teaches you how many punches you can take, for me that is awesome, struggle is freaking awesome.
As a man in his 30s with no wife and no children finding meaningful purpose outside of just providing for my self is finding joy in helping others and watching my garden grow and making sure the ones I love have plenty of organic food.
That's right. If there are no challenges to overcome, all the luxuries and comfort quickly becomes your prison, there cant be constant quick dopamine and reward high
And living without higher purpose makes You weak, obedient and easy target to all who works with greater purpose.
Having my children young I believed saved me. The responsible made me a strong woman able to weather the storms in life

@@zotiac1231 I know saying sorry for your loss isn't good enough. Somebody who you knew and loved your whole life is just gone. I get jealous of people who still have both their parents. How stupid is that.
I've thought about this for a while: When people aren't in enough physical danger (threat of violence against you) it's almost impossible to not get depressed.
All the help we have by therapy, phycology and the amount of self help books basically deal with the symptoms. But JP goes directly to the causes. Ya got to love this guy. And at the same time constantly dealing with his detractors.
