      British Blue I don't get that from him at all, at least not the talks I've listened to and I've listened to a number of them. If anything I think he challenges the individual to examine themselves honestly and that the most dangerous evil we face is within ourselves. It's terrifying and liberating at the same time to accept that. As far no onus being put on women I don't agree with that, in fact I think he's come as close as anyone I've heard to explaining the hierarchical aspects of the sexes

      +Christina Ky What is evil? Can you measure that? Is that which kills you evil? But then life itself is evil. Is that which causes suffering evil? But he seems to advocate a type of lifestyle by which one suffers in the present in exchange for a future. He, in fact, defines self-awareness AS suffering.
      Human beings are the arbiters of good and evil because we made them up. As such, the only evil within yourself is that part which you believe to be evil.
      Jordan Peterson seems to be attempting to try to bring ethics and morals into the objective domain by weaving them into biology. Well I'm sure there is certainly very binary things which are true, like that humans will always create some 'good' image and some 'evil' image. Ontologically the consistent disagreement of morals is proof that there's no objective scheme far beyond that.
      His skill in literary analysis astounds me though. He draws some incredible connections and is surely quite gifted in that regard. However, these are still subjective connections and very hard if not impossible to verify.

      "Why should I bother with you, if you are not the embodiment of the spirit that will move ME into the unknown and face the Leviathon?" ... men don't slay dragons for any damn person.

      I don't know for certain but, maybe, it could be that to a lot of our instructors/professors education is an occupation and not their purpose in life like the difference between a soldier and a warrior. One of them fights and one of them lives to fight. I can't remember for the life of me the actual title but, I know Friedrich Nietzsche gave a lecture on what he saw as the decline of modern higher education; I'm sure if you looked for it you could find it somewhere.

      The one doctor who recommended that they should wash their hands to prevent infection (he had done this and cut down on his patients infection rates substantially) was called a quack, lost his medical license and was put in prison and beaten to death by guards. But it’s now common knowledge to any and all, even small children.

      Well intelligence is different than wisdom/experience.Intelligence is just potential to discover/understand more complex things,with the things u know in that field.Wisdom is how much u know.Experience helps wisdom grow,as intelligence is the same.
      But if i want the TRUTH on something in life,i wouldnt take it from someone who is very smart but hasnt got enough experience on it(J.P),I would rather take it from someone with above average intelligence maybe or kind of smart that knows more because he has more experiences in that part of life lets say.
      Peterson is right in most of the things i heard him talk about,and thats mostly in the fields he has studied in,because he has experience in them.But regarding women,he doesnt know as much as some red pilled dude who had WAY more experience with women than Peterson did,assuming J.P only had 1 partner in his life and he doenst have experience with women(not saying its a bad thing,i believe thats a very good thing and thats how we should live).So my point is just because Peterson is so smart,doesnt mean what he says about women on his videos is always correct.Better take it from someone who has experience.

Think of it as a genetic/evolutionary blue print, there is no running away from it. Acheiving your goals and being content is one and the same. As you accomplish that you will move up the dominance hierachy, you will be more stable (more able to withstand threats and the chaos of life), confident and less selfconcious and resentfull. As a result you will become more joyous, instead of being reactionairy you will confront lifes problems as challenges, it will eminante from you. People you havnt seen in years will notice the difference. I see it as being the best version of yourself rather than being the "highest", its a journey that never ends. Many of the people at the top often must neglect their family and pay a price. The higher up the dominance hierachy you get the less you give a fuck about the dominace hierachy ie less selfconcious.

    Ran into Dr. Jordan Peterson on the streets of Toronto: "How you doin today, Doc?"
    "Well, it depends on what you mean by 'doing.' And it depends on what you mean by 'today.'"
    "Now, I've been thinking about this a lot, and you can tell me what you think about it."
    "It doesn't seem to me to be self-evident that when we're conceptualizing the nomenclature of a word like 'today' within the substrate of a dominance hierarchy, let's say, that we're not actually utilizing an a priori interpretive framework."
    "That seems to me like a good way of thinking about it."
    "Like, you might say it's proper, by the same token -- roughly speaking -- to order your (How would you put it?) your ... your manifestation of thinking in such a manner that 'today,' or 'doing,' for that matter, is predicated upon an evolutionary understanding of the archetypal representation of these utterances as they'e been portrayed in great literature."
    "And why the hell not?!"
    "It isn't obvious to me, eh, as far as I'm concerned, that this kind of ideology isn't part and parcel of a threat to the neo-marxist identity-politics approach to Jungian chaos and order. I see this as substantiated in the humanities departments of the university as it functions today. Yunno ... as the post-modernist types would have it."
    "So, so ... You have to give the devil his due, you know, because the devil is in the details."
    "It's no joke, man. Not bloody damn well. Not at all. AT ALLLLLL."
    "And fair enough, you know. More power to ya as far as I'm concerned."
    "And how are YOU doing today?"

Each person has their unique set of personality and beliefs. Find the women who aren’t stupid and don’t conform to this stupid modern way of thinking. Men are much more to a woman than just “social status” and how much you can “provide”. Funnily enough chemistry and connection are the most important thing in a relationship. I know. I’ve been there and done that. Money and status is but a side thing. Status and money doesn’t bang your wife, money and status doesn’t make her laugh or give you both a worthy conversation, money and status doesn’t get her to want to say “I love you”, your honest and vulnerable connection makes that happen. People are so materialistic and superficial in their relationship thinking these days and it’s so sad. Wake up people!

      He's not making it up as he goes, there's a lot of perpetration involved. He takes the time to articulate his thoughts in writing, which is why he can effortlessly leap from one train of thought to another. There's a spontaneous element to it, but he leads you through territory he's very familiar with. He doesn't speak publicly about anything before he understands it well enough so that there's real depth to what he's saying, and this is what it looks like in practice.

    He is articulating thoughts that most guys with a brain happen upon in their mid thirties and onwards. Experience and age are the only bridge to a lot of what Peterson discusses. It's amazing that he is so popular and gets a justified and rewarding return for doing something not only worthy but probably something that he loves to do as well : TEACH.
