Poll of the Day > Tried to get into Jordan Peterson again.

(+) Yeah! (+)

A lot of people like him, and I know he's a shithead but I wanted to at least give him one more shot before I continue disregarding him.

idk, I still don't get it. I feel like he always introduces an idea, then throws like 70 different random fucking out of place ideas to try to justify the one idea, and just tricks people into believing that these 70 random ideas relate to the one idea. Your brain will still be trying to process the random 70 ideas to the point at which people with lesser brain power will just think "wow, this guy is a lot smarter than me if he can spout bullshit like this for fifteen minutes straight without relating it to anything in reality."

Why would you ever get into fundamental conservative thought.
Isn't the goal in life fto get out of the ditch that is Christianity?

ah but that is what the cat wants and that is a forced act. You are expected to pet the cat. The cat wants compensation for taking the time to come to you. Do not pet the cat because it has a victim mentality and believes because it is a cat and you are a human then you must pet the cat. You only pet cats that are on your level. Cats have a hypergamous view of life and will only want to be pet by someone of equal or higher value. Do not allow yourself to pet a cat with this view, but at the same time also believe that you can only pet cats on your level or else you are devaluing yourself. Cats have many people fawning over them at all times and then when you do not fawn over them they come to you expecting you to fawn. That is a cat tactic used to trick people of higher status into petting them.

The thing with Jordan Peterson is that he peddles easy answers, but the catch is we live in this moment of history on this world where "common sense" has been de-valued to the point those easy answers are hard to explain and exercise.

And he makes his fame and money, because.... "the one-eye'd man is king" so to speak.

Pretty much this.

I liked when he owned that one news reporter lady, though.

I don't necessarily agree with this. I feel like most of his answers relate too much to animalistic instinct or caveman bullshit that simply does not relate to modern times. Humans have evolved, we are not cavemen, you can not try to tell me that everyone in this world or even a fraction of the population of this world still thinks like cavemen. He also puts too much focus on western world ideals but tries to paint them onto the entire homogenus.

He's not "totally" wrong in his allusions though. I mean you could be insulted by his comparisons to other lesser organisms on this planet, even those that are animistic/caveman....but they do hold some truth to humanity and the way we operate, especially in first world western societies.

Again like Judgmel, most choose not to acknowledge such thesis and answers because in this day and age, we have those "breaking boundaries" for the sake of breaking them, without little to no fore-thought on the consequences after. So it's easier to dismiss Peterson, saying he has no answers, and his knowledge is bullshit. ...even when it's proven over and over again there are inherent truths to such simple logic.

....that and people don't like him for the simple fact that he's been labelled a "transphobe" for speaking out against "compelled speech", which I agree is a bad thing. Since it speaks to those tribalism/caveman paradigms he lectures, you have one group of people exercising their will upon another group, forcing them to speak or act a certain way. History has always proven that to be disastrous which is his point all along. Cavemen back in the day would just turn around a club you to death. ...today, in this more civilized era, would just join a 'white nationalist' group because you can't club them to death, but you're forced to pick your tribe anyways and defend your way of life.......

God, this way of thinking is so fucking toxic. I have grown as a person and become happy striving for my own happiness and working towards my own goals by seeing what I could do to better myself AND the world around me. Everything that these sad boy redpillers talk about are designed to make you think that the entire fucking world is out to get you and that if you open up to literally anyone you will be stabbed in the back. I'm not saying that I'm going to be a millionaire and donate every last one of my dollars, but I'm going to do what I find beneficial to myself and those around me. I am one who finds happiness by receiving happiness from the happiness that I put out in the world.

I am not going to be a closed off dickhead to people who lives in constant irrational fear of people stabbing me in the back.
