Out of curiousity, I googled the latest Captain America news. Appareantly, the new Captain actor in the Disney+ series is getting death threats because of Chris Evan whores. Toxic femininity?
Jordan Peterson is controlled-opposition: another academic motormouth with a giant load of skeletons in his closet, and he's been chosen for you to represent you (because who wouldn't want a brain-fried drug-addict as their go-to philosopher?). The "tell" is that they're who the commies are always bitching about full-time, and you're always hearing about said bitching in the useless, tag-team kayfabe conservapundit alt-press. Avoid these SOBs like the plague. Never promote them. Never link them.
What makes you say he is controlled opposition? Despite going to church hundreds of times, he's the only one who got me to read the Bible with open eyes and ears. How is that a bad thing, exactly?
You make a good point. You can't expect every expert to talk about everything in one book, or even ever. Experts only really talk about things they know well, which is why they get paid to be experts.
The way you figure what a person is about is this technique: COMPARE WHAT THEY CANNOT TALK ABOUT vs WHAT THEY CAN TALK ABOUT.
So:
he cannot talk about jews despite the fact that gulag archipelago thrust was the jew hatred of whites
he cannot talk about any of the other groups participating in in inter group competition, particularly muslims
he cannot talk about race and genetic differences between races
he cannot talk about in group preference
he cannot ever talk about the individual as part of the group, he only talks about the individual
he cannot talk about immigration
But:
he goes out of his way to say things like, you cannot take pride in your civilization because it wasn't built by you it was built by your ancestors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyoTGmhczcY (around 2:22 mark)
he goes out of his way to emphasize the individual and atomize you.
he goes out of his way to explain that all of your success and happiness comes from individualism.
Notice the trend? Group identity bad, individualism good.
It's a slight of hand magic trick in 100 000 ponderous words or 30 years worth of lectures. Veeeeeery slow and methodical.
The presupposition driving Peterson is that WW2 was driven by in group preference and in group thinking so the solution is to keep propagandizing individualism and atomization and to keep groups of people in the west from getting together.
You will notice he doesn't go to India, China or Africa to preach this. He only does this in western countries.
Of course, individualism and group membership are two sides of the same coin. The individual exists BECAUSE of the group success, one is inseparable from the other. Individualism is important for the success of the group, success of the group is important for the success of individuals. As well, human brains are not single processing units, our brains are a set of subsystems, some very old, some very young, some highly co-related to other systems some less so. What this means is that we have parts of our brain that are dominant when we are individuals and other parts that are dominant when we are in groups ... this is why you are one person when you are alone BUT YOU ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT when you are in a group. Because you are a different person in a group, a different part of your brain with a different personality is driving you in that situation.
So, he has provided us with a great deal of insight and important information in a VERY VERY VERY NARROW WAY. Which is exacly what we want, we want precision.
But there is english on his queball. On the one hand, he cannot talk about certain things because he would literally get him self killed. On the other, the human mind is good at picking out patterns and if you ever felt there was something ooooooooddddly wrong with what he was saying, well its becaue of the list above: he is DELIBERATELY leaving out information and massaging the message.
You can use this is the technique to evaluate everyone, even here on win forums. It's a great tool.
I think I tend to lean on the individualists side, as I don't feel that the offspring is responsible for the sins of their fathers. I also don't think they are responsible for the successes of their fathers. I would just disagree with him on having pride in your people/country. I just don't view him in my mind as a politics character and I suppose the answer is "bro you're on KIA2 of course we look at things politically first and foremost", but, he's not very interesting to me politically. I like him for his religious stuff or profesionally for self authoring, and it's just so strange watching people get so heated around the topic of him.
Overall I at least see where you're coming from groups vs individuals. I just suppose I do lay more on his side of things. I was raised LDS and they have an article of faith that I didn't understand as a child that I think is the demarcation line that makes sense to me on that topic.
“We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression”
Especially as someone who has sinned plenty during his lifetime, I have enough reasons that I myself can damn myself over, I don't need the guilt of every sin that my fore-fathers committed laid at my feet, and while I am literally in awe and have a deep reverence for what my fore-fathers did and for which I will always be thankful for, my honest conviction about what sort of responsibility or relationship we have with the past was what woke me up from being a lefist a long time ago. I wasn't about to repent for something I didn't do as I was already rather busy trying to make amends for my actions. The past is a source of pride and inspiration, but I don't feel any ownership over their actions, only that I should emulate the best of them.
