"The world is full of educated idiots" - My dead Nan. She was smarter than I gave her credit for.
As per Ted Cruz, Tom Cotton, Josh Hawley (didn't Ginsberg write a poem about him LOL) et al.
I'm kinda curious about to what extent it does or does not prevent people from having opinions on all sorts of things that many really do lack all or most primary and secondary education (primary+high school).
in particular, imagine manipulative news media, or even all government-aligned media in an autocracy, having a national general audience to work with that largely has no primary and secondary education by which to judge the picture of reality that the media paints. like a flat earther level of ignorance.
Peterson is a hero.
@@Ass_of_Amalek It's called lack of critical thinking skills, lack of questioning authority (ergo Christian nationalism with guns no less).
to non-critical thinkers. Anyone with half a nose would smell a rotten fish.
Never trust a person who says 20 words when 1 wouldve sufficed.
Oh, absolutely. Apart from the hilarious irony that "be concise in your speech" is one of the points in his own self-help book.
He is a public speaker. His job is to convey his ideas as accurately as possible to as many people as possible. If he cannot do that, he is either shit as his job or willfully manipulative.
Have you seem that clip where Sam Harris asking him a literal yes or no question (Do you believe Jesus was literally resurrected from death?) and his answer was "It would take me 40 hours to even begin to answer that question."
Well, it shouldn't, Jorpy. It's a simple yes or no question about whether you believe a claim or not. 😂
What's wrong with trying to express as close as intended man. I was going to insult you, but fuck it.
Especially when half those words were used incorrectly
@@Direfloof incorrectly based on what? You head canon ? Or maybe because you heard from your favorite streamer. Tell me how do you make that judgement, I'm not sarcastic

Hahah 😂 well said
Jordan Peterson is a hero. Ever heard of something called mathematics? Ya they always make sure they get their terminology absolutely correct like a true mathematical statistitian and logic based individual.
@@blaynestaleypro he regularly uses "big words" incorrectly. That's like if you wrote a much longer proof for something in math to look smart but you got it wrong
@@tomlxyz I've watched dozens of video, lectures and interviews. I don't ever recall him using "big words" wrong. Give me an example. I'll give you one example. Equity. It means something that is just and fair. But the extreme left are using it to mean equality of outcome. It's what THEY made it mean.
Jordan makes me think of a college student who references various concepts he heard of in school into random conversations in order to sound intellectual to young women at a party.
My favourite dude at the party 🙄
except he's more interested in the young men who don't have a father figure than the young women at the party.
Josten Pueblostone probably did try to get women by saying a dumb thing in a smart way. Classic mistake.
You know what _really_ gets the ladies goin? Saying *smart* things in *dumb* ways.
Funnily enough that's the perfect description of a former mate of mine, who just so happened to be into Peterson.
Kept saying "I know it sounds dumb when you see a clip of him saying X or Y, but if you see the full context you'll see it actually all makes sense! Just watch his actual videos and you'll get it"
Of course it never did. Typical conservative dude who thinks people are intelligent and trustworthy based on their clothing, their confidence, and how needlessly academic their language is.
Peterson is charmingly eccentric on top of that, which is a trope associated with intellectual genius, which obviously leads to these idiots taking him even more seriously.
The former mate Used to always ramble about his economics classes, constantly using words that he knew I didn't know. I never understood anything and could only ever nod and say "sure, if you say so, I guess it must be true".
Guess what? When later in life I got into politics, and encountered a bunch of the terminology he used to throw at me, I quickly found out that a lot of the stuff I remember him saying was flat out wrong or even gibberish.
He'd always claimed that he never got his degree becaus the mathematics was too hard for him. Now it's pretty clear that he just didn't really understand much about economics in the first place, despite that being his big passion which he constantly read about even outside of school. (He was also big into day trading and cryptocurrency. Kept lying that he was making a shitton of money. Years later, he's working a 9 to 5 for some company :) Lmfao)
That is so supremely sad, I almost feel bad for him, tbh.
"to sound intellectual to young women at a party"

I live in a textile town, that has been one since before the 1400s and that industry was the men, women and children all working together. Yet peterson has this bizarre a-historical idea women only entered the workforce very recently, he thinks the nuclear family was something everyone lived in and that existed back to the dawn of man.
History started in 1950 and from then on everything went downhill.
A traditional conservative would never have a terrible grasp of history. It's just so out of character for them. Have you considered that Adam and Eve only had two kids? Both boys. Yeah that's right conservatives understand *real* biology.. Now let me talk to you about the importance of -Judeo- Christian values.
I'm from the South Wales Valleys where pit brow girls and chain makers were some of the earliest trade unionists and organisers of labour... but forget that for a minute... what does P Jiddy Beeperson think women were doing in the pre-enclosure early middle ages when serfs lived on subsitance farming and there weren't any household chores because there was barely a house... or clothes... or food...
I’m older then Peterson, my mother worked full from 15 to 30 and then part time on and off after that, my mother in law supported my father in law through university working as a secretary. There are stories in my wife’s family of a female ancestor running a haulage business using ox drawn wagons.
I've known a man who grew up in a polygamous family. He lived in a culture where this was traditional. But for some reason, people don't mean polygamy when they say "traditional family values."
Ever time I see the Hitler clip that iconic dril tweet comes to mind. you do not, under any circumstances, 'gotta hand it to him'

It is universally agreed that Canadians are nice and polite people... to compensate for having brought to the world this creature.
At least the Canadians gave us Rush
Well, it's good to know Jordan Peterson hasn't committed war crimes. If he's the opposite of most Canadians ;)
Canadians are only so kind and gentle because Jordy Petey absorbs and redirects the rage of the entire population himself.
I think the best summary I ever heard of JP came from a former student.
It was something like:
He speaks authoritatively and with a lot of big indecipherable words that, at first, sounds meaningful. But when you think about what he actually said, it's just a high-falutin gish gallop.
I found him hogwash when he said that us ladies are either all damsels, temptations, or prizes for men to own. And that we have no role models like Rambo or insert superhero here. The horror.
Its because our role models are real flesh and blood, Pete. We don't just read fairytales and stay there all our lives. Women have other women to look up to and yes, trans women too.
He's the opposite of the rapper aesop rock
This reminds me when I went to an art college I was relatively far removed from high school, so I scored low enough on placement I was admitted, but had to take a mandatory "Critical Thinking Class". Within the first few days my instructor was talking about how proper monsters, like werewolves, are ancient symbols that represent real dangers, like strange men, or STIs, informing us with visual stimuli to stay away from dangerous people or situations. So he went onto say that TV shows like True Blood or Being Human are "dangerous" because they lionize the monster. Identifying us with them by putting the audience into their shoes. One of the most insidious examples being a fight against the urge to engage with literal "bloodlust".
I asked him if he didn't think making the audience the monster wasn't to acknowledge our human faults and get us to think about our own worst impulses, the dangers of acting on them, and self control. After all there are no real monsters, right, it's just us.
At first he didn't say anything, said he hadn't thought about it, and he'd have to think about it more, then handed out the assignment.
He was my "critical thinking teacher" and he hadn't thought about it.
He's the king of word salad.
He’s deeply hypocritical as he’s lying through his teeth to keep his patreon cash coming through.
Me: Hey Jordan, you wanna order a pizza?
Jordan: Well that's a really broad and open ended question that I can't just give a yes or no answer to. You see it really depends on how you're defining "pizza", are you talking exclusively flat bread pizza? Because by such implicit reductionism you're not factoring Chicago style. Furthermore perhaps we should broaden our horizons of what constitutes a "pizza" instead of oversimplifying such a complicated issue. For instance is tomato sauce a necessary component? Otherwise you could extrapolate cheesy bread as being part of the broader pizza meta analysis. Furthermore we should consider the moral ramifications of Meat Lover's pizza and how it contributes to the bourgeoius class's further exploitation of factory farming...
The word "order" in the question suggest a sophisticated pizza-hierarchy structure, which you forgot to mention.

Jordy: What do you mean by “you”, “wanna”, “a”?
classic Jordan, deliberately obfuscate other people arguments by breaking it down into tiny portions and argues there definitions. but when he makes arguments he thinks he's allowed to take leaps and bounds with his "now lets say" hypotheticals.
Meanwhile, most people started ignoring him after the first sentence and ordered a personal pizza for themselves.

@@carolinemcgovern4488 I didn't say it wasn't though.
His 12 life rules are pretty general for the most part. Nothing revolutionary and that most people seem to figure out for themselves by the time they're 30.
🤣
@@debbiegilmour6171 The thing that i have to give to him is that he gives you a story as to why you should follow those rules. People generally understand all of those things pretty much intuitively, but to get them to actually follow through with them is a bit more complicated. By embedding the simple advice in a greater narrative about life and its meaning, you will have far greater success. But a genuine crtitisism that i would bring up is that the book is littered with right-wing politics in a very subtle way. So i guess another goal of his has always been to cater to those people.
I’m glad people are finally seeing Peterson for what he really is - he’s not a misunderstood genius advocate of free speech and Nietszhian a superman… just an intellectually confused narcissist

@@TheresaCoughyCmon, we all know he's on that Krokodil now.
My father-in-law and I once talked about Peterson. "The man who recites a paragraph when only one word is needed is the man that would kill you in your sleep for taking his parking space once and claim it was your fault for his emotional instability." This was his response when I asked his opinion on the man. His next phrase was, "He sounds like if Kirmit the Frog and Ms. Piggy were into choking and fucked up Kermit's voice."
Damn, but it sounds like you have one cool father-in-law.
@michaelhall2709 the man is wonderful and has dealt with more BS than I can imagine
Peterson or no, your father in law sounds like a psycho.
🤣🤣🤣
Your FIL needs to create a channel!! I’d be interested in hearing his take on modern ‘intellectuals’ :)
He lures you in with self help and then kicks you down a nonsensical political rabbit hole.
I don't think he is doing it on purpose.
He just got stuck in something that doesn't need to be as deep as he think it needs...
The most impressive thing Peterson has ever done, is the fact that he has to be debunked by so many different disciplines, because he talks about so much stuff he doesn't understand. From Biologist, to the Bar association of Canada, economics, fellow psychologists, philosophers, even supermodels are making fun of him. I'd di e of embrassement if I said even half the amount of things he has that were just so wrong and easily debunkable. Just the line about staying awake for 27 days due to Apple Cider would be too much on it's own. Yet for Peterson he just goes on, it's fascinating how one man can have such an undeserved ego and prefers to be ignorant on every topic he talks about, he is the defintion of Dunning Kruger.
A few weeks after Yumi Nu body slammed Peterson into the core of the earth, he gathered enough Muppet strength to quote tweet a magazine cover that featured a tall white skinny model and alluded that he found her attractive. The model quote tweeted him and said that she's never checking her mentions again.
I think he has to say this stupid shit as he has openly stated somewhere that he is making a shit tonne of money from right ring incels. Although sometimes he'll say something and I'll think, ok, that ones for the basement dwellers but then he'll follow it up with some other inane remark, and so I have to reconsider that he actually believes some of this crap coming out of his mouth.
@@GhostInTheMachine165 funny how u say body slammed him-
@@GhostInTheMachine165MUPPET STRENGTH
i think that's the problem, a lot of people, especially those in the anti cancel culture train, have a strong underdog fallacy, where they'll see someone like jordan peterson, whom everyone is against, and they'll assume that because everyone is against him, what he's saying must be true, it's the whole 'they hate him because he tells the truth' kind of thing
I find that when when people hyperfixate on “how do you define X,” it’s usually because they don’t want to engage with the substance of what you’re actually talking about. Defining terms is important, but it should be about clarifying the issue and setting the groundwork for how you proceed. Peterson uses “definitions” as a means to obfuscate the issue and make himself sound smarter.
Not really. As a kid I was raised on the motto: there are no dumb questions, just dumb answers. The more insight I got into the world, the more I realized that this is not true. Some questions cannot be answered in a sensible manner, because all they do is reveal the level of ignorance of the actual problem. Since I see it popping up on the side, one of those questions is, for instance, that about the existence of God. Answering that with a simple yes or no just isn't possible. I learned a lot from the guy, and not in terms of self-help, but in terms of questioning my implicit assumptions about reality.
@@Volkbrecht "one of those questions is, for instance, that about the existence of God. Answering that with a simple yes or no just isn't possible."
Given the way you've phrased this it does need some qualification regarding exactly which god and whether you're asking about knowledge or belief, so that it does become something which it might be possible to answer with a simple yes or no. But unless you chose your phrasing to somewhat clumsily illustrate your point, this is trivial and obvious. You could have just cut the entire thing short and said, "There are no dumb questions, just dumb answers. Sometimes you have to ask more questions before being able to provide a non-dumb answer." Of course the other point of view is that if you ask a question which you know will require qualification then it is in fact a dumb question and you may be guilty of trying to elicit a dumb answer, which would be dishonest and manipulative.
"usually". Try actualy watching and understanding his videos. Peterson is a hero.

As a former therapist- I promise you Peterson is not a good clinical psychologist either. He lacks insight and emotional stability, he eschews evidence based practice, and most significantly he lacks empathy and humility. What he is very good at is cultivating a cult of personality specifically geared toward vulnerable people who feel marginalized.
Exactly! That is why he has gone full pundit.
Lack of Stability yes but not in empathy
@@TheMorous He has very little empathy for the actual suffering of people.

As a former client of Jordan Peterson. I disagree with this assertion. He was actually quite empathetic during my sessions with him.
He is so precise in what he says that he needs a cadre of fanboys to explain what he really meant.
He doesn't need them, no. If you actually read what he has said, you'd get it too.
@@khomausire8997 I’ve listened to him say ridiculous things many many times. The only excuse you cultists seem to have is whining that we basically have to read all of his work for any of it to make sense. Your emperor has no clothes.

@@khomausire8997 Yeah, we get what he says, but his fanboys try to justify his very clearly stated hate into somehow being something else. That's the whole joke.
@@Noname-hw9bx "clearly stated hate" :D
For reference; the correct answer when someone asks you whether you think you're a prophet is categorically "no"
It was when he went on Joe Rogan as a psychologist and said "I've read ALL the literature on climate change, I understand it better than anyone else" and then proceeded to spend 3 hours saying there's no harm in releasing billions of years of sequestered Carbon into the atmosphere in 2 centuries. Of course not. What could possibly be the issue there? Not like we live in a very finely balanced ecosystem
You forgot the best part; Peterson implying that theories regarding climate change are faulty or unknowable because " climate is *everything* "
Very cogent point, doctor, somebody should tell the climate scientists! He's onto something!
Clinical psychologists don’t use advanced statistics. He is unable to understand the statistical methods used in climate models. That’s what I know about statistics. But I know that I don’t know much about the variables in the models and how they behave.
@@jayargee492 Yeah, that was the most ridiculous strawman i've ever heard someone use. I genuinely don't understand how Jordan didn't realize that this was a massive oversimplification of the point. If i remember correctly, even Joe Rogan was like "What about CO2?", although i'm not sure anymore about the rest of the conversation.
Rogan is a meathead.
Why is he wearing a tux on that Joe shmoe show?
The knob-end had already decided what his opinion on the subject was, so he read just enough to convince himself that he was right, not bothering to think about it or discuss it with anyone who might contradict him because he's already convinced that he has a big brain, a better brain than anyone else. Plus he was probably being poisoned by meat and/or speed at the time.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
Jordan: "Um ackshually..." *proceeds to do phrenology*

Who would have thought that a professor of psychology would know how to convince people that he's got all the answers they need.
It's not the first time a psychologist has garnered a cult of personality and it probably wont be the last. A trained psychologist with a big ego and low awareness or care for their own biases, can do a lot of harm.

This is great. Thank you, Geezer. One of the many things that annoy me about Peterson is his hijacking of Orwell. George Orwell would have hated the dude - especially the muddy thinking.

Especially since George Orwell literally wrote that everything he ever wrote was in the service of socialism as he understood it.

Interviewer: do you see yourself as a prophet?
Jordan after attempting to find ways to rationalize that and failing miserably: actually no...
He was just trying to decide how far down the Jim Jones rabbit hole he wanted to go.
It was just such an attractive proposition; almost like being offered Xanax.
In that interview he also goes on to describe himself as a source for very important collective ideas of humanity that do not originate from him but for which he is one of the wise able to transmit them in this time and place. Which filtered through the weird way he talks around God sure sounds a lot like he's describing a prophet.

Best comment.
It's interesting that the main person who talks about narcissistic people only shows emotions when he ponders his own magnificence. He'll pretend it's the idea of helping the people who need it the most that makes him tear up, but if you look for it it's only when it's about him helping them. He'll mock former patients for laughs, so it's not that he feels sorry for them
He is a covert narc, maybe even socio*ath, and people don't realize how dangerous his victim mentality as well as grandiosity are.
JP looks like the kind of person who practises his expressions in the mirror before leaving home.
Let's be honest. He spends his time talking about self confidence and self reliance all the while looking like a deeply unhappy man.

you mean peterson? how did he scam people?@@Pull54545454
grifter ?
Exactly, Harvard professors are all grifters when I disagree with their politics
hes mad he is not a gen z and cant use words like lol or lolz because it will make him look less creditable
@@khomausire8997 - Hang on. Didn't Peterson get fired for molesting a student?
Once you notice that he sounds like Kermit the frog, everything he says takes on an entertainment quality. No offence to Kermit.
"Morgan Queeferson"
Jordan Peterson's initial gimmick was that he could be a Trojan horse for some pretty far right concepts while maintaining a calm demeanor.
As his drug addiction skyrocketed and his emotional and psyhical health collapsed he started leaning into his emotional fits (all the crying) and now he's at the end of his rope and is just a transparent weirdo.
yeah, spot on pal.
Dam thats spot on.
He's also the king of incels
Yeah you can keep them
@@jayem8476 Jay, I don't hate anybody. But I do fear that Jordan Peterson's unacknowledged drug addiction has severely compromised his judgement and that he is an actual danger to himself and others.
@@jayem8476 That may be in the past, but someone with an unacknowledged addiction so severe that they would subject themselves to a week long coma is not in a position to give sound or helpful advice.
If Pettyson was that good a clinical psychologist, he'd know that he's absolutely effing insane.
He exists entirely within his own shadow.
The fact that he doesn't realise he's insane is almost a definitive sign he is.
@@GafftheHorse That Twitter suit is making him look more ridiculous by the minute. He is the Lily Collins equivalent of 'does the outfit look good or is the wearer thin'
I feel sorry for his clients.
@@cdean2789 , same! If you actually read his self-help books, the way he talks about his (especially female clients) is really gross.
As a Canadian it’s spooked me with how accurately you mimicked Joe-sumo Skeeterbun’s accent.
17:01 He's throwing a fit about a sign that says "don't waste stuff". Incredible
Peterson! A classic example of somebody who is an expert at one thing, thinking they are an expert on everything.
Thanks for this Geezer. Good work.
And I'd dispute even his expertise at the one thing he was qualified in. He's clearly sticking to some old theories and refusing to stay up to date.
@@antonioscendrategattico2302 some, if not most of the anecdotes he’s mentioned about his patients actually really disturb me, the way he talks about people who need someone to connect with, not a guy who will bring them up to prove his points about poor people and women being stupid

Not so sure about that.
He doesn’t try to blind one with words and, in my view is a clever man with lots to say about language, etc.
But hey! Call me old fashioned, we are allowed to disagree.
He's about 2% as smart as both he and his followers think he is. And he's legit gone full theocratic fascist recruiter.

Those times when you think "Oh wow, someone's done a deepfake of Jordy looking and sounding like an idi-- oh wait no it's real".

@@dmgroberts5471 He should go back to the caves and frack anyone who listens to him. He's a bigger red flag than Andrew Tate.
@@dmgroberts5471 He NEVER said that!
He meant it... but he never _said_ it.
@@futurestoryteller True, I think what he actually said was that women are a menace to Western Civilization because you can't just hit them when they disagree with you.
@@futurestoryteller He strongly implied it, winked at the camera and made it clear it is what he meant, but he technically didn't say it.
If a woman wears black lipstick does that mean she’s trying to attract necrofiles 😂😂😂
I don't know about other women but for me absolutely 😂
Lol I used to wear bright neon purple lipstick and black lipstick for fun - trust me it didn’t make me attractive at all.
My friend likes Peterson, and while I don't often notice it, he was very confused to hear that I don't have blue layers in my hair to get more attention.
Just very wild how these men think that the world is built around trying to get their attention.
No, it means she links sexuality and death. Which is literally the entire point of 'sexy goth' looks.
Peterson's house is not in perfect order. As such, he must never attempt to criticize or change the world. His rules, not mine.
Butchering Peterson's name everytime you say it was unexpectedly fun
Peterson has mastered the ability to say a lot of words that end up meaning nothing so he doesn't have to actually defend his beliefs, and he somehow does it while always sounding like he is about to burst into tears.
I disagree
He is purposely vague and verbose so he can say he’s being misquoted or taken out of context
@@bjones8470if you “imply” you want to exterminate an entire group of people you can claim you never expressly stated it
@@theveganduolingobird7349 Lmaooo you are so delusional about what Peterson is implying
Maybe you don't possess the mental capabilities to comprehend him.
I’ve read comments saying things along the lines of “jordan Peterson told me to clean my room, wash the dishes, take a shower and now I feel better and I’m like a better person!” Like ain’t that the stuff you learn as a kid?? Stuff your mom tells you to do???
Well to be fair, a lot of slightly depressed people would probably benefit and feel better after doing those things
As someone with depression, I know that if I am clean and my house is clean, I feel wayyyyyy better. And that is not something you learn
No, not all people are the same as you
He's addicted to Twitter, that says everything.
I became aware of this person LONG before he became even slightly well-known. Even then, I noticed a distinct tendency to value the sound of his own voice more than the soundness of his ideas. I remember searching the Net to confirm his qualifications and being rather shocked that he was indeed qualified. His subsequent career as a Doctor Phil type character has not surprised me in the least.
Fun fact: Speaking of Andrew Tate, Jordy's daughter famously dated Tate for a short period of time a few years ago. These guys all run in the same circles.
No!!! You're kidding me

Good god imagine this man as your therapist
I'm reminded of an anecdote he gave of a patient he had who was suicidal. His answer to the question "why should I carry on living?" was the question "why should you?"
@@debbiegilmour6171What the actual fuck…
I had a few psychiatrists like that. They're surprisingly common.
Jordan Peterson is dishonest. No one should see a dishonest therapist.
Two things ive learned about this self help gurus; 1.Stick to what you know 2.They have a way with words which if you seat down and think about it its just absolute waffling.
JP is such an easy target to ridicule that the bar tends to be pretty high, at least for me, on critical reviews. This is one of the best.
His dancing and sleight of hand when asked if he believes in God are hilarious. "I don't need to answer that." "My actions speak for themselves." "What do you mean 'do' and 'believe'?" "The answer to that question has always been the same." "Dostoevsky." "Ask a lobster." etc. All that doesn't actually mean anything, Jor-Pe.
So embarrassed that he's Canadian. Though, he's a fantastic example to point to when arguing for more funding for schools.
in many ways I think his kind would benefit more from subsidies for those put the square block in the square hole kinda toys, might keep him from eating all the crayolas
he might be canadian, but it’s SUPER telling that he’s from alberta, though
Even his 12 steps, which are fairly uncontroversial, are just generic unremarkable self-help advice you can find a million other places
I appreciate the detail of putting a picture of Ben Stiller as Sam Harris. Made me laugh deserves a like.
Calling himself doctor is like my 6-year-old daughter calling herself a scientist. You'd hate to hurt their little feelings by telling them their not.
"Their" what (not)?
💀bro thinks he has the authority to determine who qualifies as a doctor - ur 6 yo daughter is probs closer to being a doctor than youll ever be

@@asdasd-di4zj the issue is you believing anyone should care
He went to debate Slavoj Zizek (worlds most prominent socialist philosopher/marxist theorist) and his preparation was reading the communist manifesto…
Thats like competing in a Mathalon against Stephen Hawkin (RIP) and only preparing with a highschool math textbook.
Which also exposes how he knows exactly 0 about marxism (or any leftwing literature) but loves to talk about it.
It's funny because the same people saying "No, I don't need to see hours of JP's bullocks and read his book" when asked what they know of him, to the point there if a meme about the horror of being asked what you know of him when you criticize him, are also the same mocking him for "Just reading the Communist Manifesto and thinking he knew Communism".
To be fair, in that exchange Zizek contributed nothing of value, too. Just general rambling. In general I don't quite understand how that guy came to fame. With some philosophers, like Hannah Arendt, I get it. They make an effort to line up quite a range of facts before drawing their conclusions. Zizek just refers to general news items and then spins stories around them. Sorry, but I and half the internet can do that ourselves.
The best way I have found to view that debate is through Peter Joseph’s critique on TZMOfficialChannel. Masterfully done. And it doesn’t bother with the Zizek stuff because the more interesting points are how backwards Peterson’s takes are!
I guess you don't know that JBP was a staunch socialist in his youth. Up until probably his PhD studies he was more leftist than Bernie Sanders
I guess his reaction to socialism is sort of personal for him. He was disillusioned by it so he hates it because he feels embarrassed by his former belief in it.
@@maskoblackfyre I would be very interested to know what he thought 'socialism' was. Probably the typical propaganda correspondence, thinking socialism is Soviet Union and Chinese Communism or Venezuela and stuff like that which is actually State Capitalism and nations effected by US Imperialism.

This man, and a few other people (J.K. Rowling springs to mind) seem to me to be excellent examples of the idea that 'depth of knowledge' is not the same as 'breadth of knowledge'.
You can be an intelligent and very capable person with extensive knowledge in one particular discipline but the danger starts when you begin to think that means you are an expert across the board, and that your opinion should carry weight even if it's about something you have no understanding of.

Following your own logic, your lack of expertise in anything at all means that your opinion about these people doesn't carry any weight. So why did you even post it?
Knowledge is the acquisition of data. Wisdom is the application of knowledge. Take your pick on which he lacks.
@@spitfire184 damn that's funny as fuck
Finally someone calling him out
I think Jordan Peterson is absolutely, one hundred percent correct.....The Brothers Karamazov likely is the greatest novel ever written.
Did he say something else?
I'm glad you pointed out that he is a narcissist. I believe he may be. Which is adorable because he goes on and on about it lol
the fact that he and his daughter supposedly both suffer from incurable chronic depression and yet constantly give other people advise on how to be happy is kinda sus to me
Like, I wouldn't take any advice from Petersen without a grain of salt. But this isn't unique to him. Nietzsche famously spent a lot of his energy trying to reason his way out of nihilistic despair. The unhappy are the people likeliest to put a lot of conscious energy into figuring out happiness. The already happy don't think about it much.
@@Bustermachine that’s fine. Nietzsche didn’t tell others how to be happy.
You think people with inheritable mental conditions can't give advice...?
@@SuperStella1111he did tho
he talks about woman when he is a man I wouldnt take advice or praise him at all whatsoever
I just stumbled upon your channel.
After binging all your videos, I have to say you are criminally underrated. Your style and your comedic timing are exceptional.
This channel is going to be huge one day!
Keep up the amazing work
Thank you, that's very kind!

He is just a boomer with a PhD
If I listen to Peterson for more than 5 minutes at a time I tend to get headaches. He redefines the meaning of words, getting him to share *his* definition in a precise way without getting tangent about bloody Dostoyevski is like doing dental surgery on a lion without anaesthetics and he inserts his favourite novels into every discussion while at the same time trying to force-feed you Jung's debunked take on psychology.
I honestly don't even believe he was a good psychologist. In the debate with Stephen Fry about the cruelty of god and his existence he went like "yeah, you might be right but it makes me uncomfortable so I'm rejecting it". One of the steps in (most forms of) therapy is facing issues that bother you so they can be resolved. You would think that psychologist with so long career would react differently in that situation.
Got the same feeling. His books and some of the lectures I have seen online suggest that he is not that good in that field either. There is a website that cites his sources he is using in some of his articles. He has opinions on some matters that are based on single book or article, not even a study. Like the one with "you cannot stop smoking without shrooms", you can source that to a single book he believes is relevant, disregarding all the other studies. He is a con man basically.
in this regards he reminds me a lot of William Laine Craig......speaking a lot without actually saying anything.
Well done...Petersons popularity is a complete mystery to me. The man is a master of misunderstanding ideas. His whole schtick is a kind of creepy public self analysis. What an absolute fool he is.
I can solve the mystery: He tells people what they want to hear, and he has a PhD so when he does such, he's giving their preconceived notions a further veneer of legitimacy.
Joe Rogan has a lot to answer for.
Ah you're a man. Let me explain. It took us only a few decades to outnumber men in university entry upon it really opening up to us. There's a nice thick tail end in that male IQ curve he likes so much that you don't see w/women. Plus they're still told that they're little gods, especially the white ones so when they only partially fall upwards instead of instantly becoming John Hamm they get angry and shooty and they want someone to blame so Peterson comes along and tells them that tradition was right. Giving women zero options other than to be forced into marriage and PoC having zero rights would guarantee their rightful place at the top of the pyramid.
*the not at all completely social Darwinism pyramid.
His fanbase tend to be very receptive to emotions and performative deeds. Doesn't really matter what he says, as long as it looks like he's confident saying it and they love somebody who strikes back at whoever they consider as evil and oppressive. So anyone who looks like they are owning the libs, can do nothing wrong in their eyes.
They are also are suckers for this guru, great leader, be stronger/better/smarter kind of vibe he has made into his trademark.
They did some polling with guys like Shapiro and Peterson and asked people to rate how well they did in a debate, even when they did very poorly the people who tend to be fans of Peterson still thought Shapiro and Peterson dominated the debate. When asked about rating actual points they made, say a very well worded and concise point made by somebody like Hitchens and your usual word salad by Peterson, the fanbase would almost always rate Peterson much higher than others even if he didn't even make a point to begin with. They always said "I feel that Peterson is the better man."
Shapiro understands this extremely well, as long as you sound confident and appeal to their emotions, you can sell them the dumbest idea.
One step further and we're into cults.
I absolutely LOVE your channel and happy I came upon it, thank you for your videos and content!!
The most impressive thing about JP (besides his ability to talk and talk without saying much) is the way he uses his hands while speaking the BS he spews. Look at his hands and the ways they move. What a dance they dance. He outlines abstract concepts using his fingers, then stretches them out, sometimes he chops them up with his other hand, before molesting them and stroking them. oh what a picture he paints! Christ i cant believe i once fell for his basic pseudo-intellectual tricks.
I think there is a lot of overlap between readers of 12 rules and Andrew tate - Peterson seems to be a gateway into that world.
Ben Shapiro is in the same stable of grifters.
I've read 12 rules, Maps of Meaning and 12 more rules more than once, as well as a lot of his lectures and interviews. I truly admire JBP, even though I disagree with some of his recent stuff.
As for Tate, I think he's one of the worst things that happened to humanity in a long long time.
He's like a very strange mid 60s Batman villain with his stick being that he wants to get rid of methodological naturalism.
You mean the og riddler? As I don't know what methodological naturalism
I kinda feel bad for Jordan, I don’t think he’s genuinely evil but I think he’s deeply unhappy and vulnerable and he tries to help with his own type of confused medicine while lashing out like a rabid dog to anything that scares him and confuses him. He’s a broken man who speak to other broken men offering broken solutions.
Top Notch 💯% Commentary.
Congratulations
I'm glad more people are finally realising what a crank Peterson is. The fact that he has thousands of followers hanging on his every word is a brutal indictment of education systems everywhere.
Forget the education system. It aimed to produce supergeniuses but with no one being able to get fivw degrees in six months you're better off just farming, since the education system forgets what's actually important.
hes still smart overall
@@marvin2678 He's not entirely stupid by any means but he's certainly not the profound genius many of his admirers seem to think he is.
@@marvin2678if he was that smart this video wouldnt be made. he wouldnt be making the insanely pathetic slip ups we see here
@@czgibson3086 Yeah, and his followers are arrogant and ignorant individuals, if you starting arguing with them and saying if you listening JP and think you smart because of that, then they just starting to insulting you with no arguments
I was a huge fan of this guy, for the reasons that you mentioned at the start of this video, his psych expertise and those books, one early warning sign I got that he was getting more hypocritical and loopy was when he said "the environment is way too complex, nobody can be an expert in that"
Says the Psychologist, the person who works with the human mind, the most complex thing we know of, but sure clouds and co2 levels are unfathomably complex, that was a major hypocrisy alarm
He does that whenever he's presented with a social problem for which the answer threatens his beloved status quo. He frames it as being such an incomprehensible mess of complexity that we can never know how to address it and so we can do nothing about it.
@@Pushing_Pixels I think the phrase "I don't know, here's what I think but I'm not an expert in that field" needs to be incorporated into Peterson's vocabulary
There is nothing hypocritical about it. Peterson doesn't claim to be able to characterize the entire mind either.
For me it was his video rant on "postmodern neo-marxists" after about months of me admiring his lectures. But I personally think his existence and rise to fame is a lesson on why we kinda need a backbone for progressives. Otherwise we'll continue to have Petersons around as an alternative to nihilistic tendencies we leftists sometimes have. If there's no "aim" as Peterson would put it, then people like him, Andrew Tate and Joe Rogan will be humanity's aim. But hey that's just me. You can disagree.
@@khomausire8997 You are missing the point, he tackles something as complex and nuanced as psychology but environmental issues are too much of muddy water? Which is not even true lol. How convenient that topics he doesn’t want to endorse are “too complex to talk about”, and it’s especially rich coming from the psychologist
I listened to a 30 second clip and i would have sworn it was A.I. it was 200 words strung together without rhyme or reason.
Awesome video. Super well-written, well-researched, and with excellent comedic timing. Subbed HARD.
