“Evil begins when you begin to treat people as things.” ― Terry Pratchett, I Shall Wear Midnight

[@tinalaursen8993]

In our current culture I believe it begins when you abdicate all responsibility and expect others to care for you perpetually. Talk about setting people up to be victims and an easy target for anyone who wishes to do evil.

I'd say evil begins even before...at the stage of SEEING people as things!

[@jonathanlamarre3579]

@@MGTOWPsyche About "I'd say evil begins even before...at the stage of SEEING people as things!" I don't say I disagree, but I'm uncertain of this . If a person sees some (or all) people as things, but this person never acts on it (based on other motives), and from an outside observer perspective it _seems_ he doesn't act as if people were things, I would argue that it doesn't matter, and that there is no evil. In other words, evil would begin with and be interpreted as acts, and not as the content of the head of someone.

We are taught as teachers that direct teaching (like this) does not lead to understanding like "doing." I disagree. The learning is intrinsic and latent which is hard to quantify. When I teach this way ( with stories) my students enjoy the class more. Whether they understand the material better, I am not sure, but that is the goal.

[@ashleighwoytuik667]

I've met people (mostly men) who have sold their daughters into the sex trade. Not because they were poor, but because they didn't want to work. I kept hearing a saying that was repeated in Thailand amongst the men. "If you have a daughter, you will never have to work again." I've met a 10-year old that stabbed his 7-year-old brother to death. I've been inside a Cambodian death camp (that still has blood stains on the walls and floor) as well as the killing fields. I work eveyday with boys who either have been raped or are rapists themselves. People who that say evil doesn't exist are usually sheltered academics. That have not only never seen an evil act, but have never met an evil person. Only safe philosophies think otherwise.

[@horsemumbler1]

Alternately, those who say evil doesn't exist are themselves evil.

[@sqreeze]

G T men commit the most evil acts of the past, completely unbalanced distribution, even JP agrees

[@sqreeze]

My point is exactly what I stated. The distribution is skewed. Obviously women are capable to be abusers too. But who cares? Most creation and most evil is by the hands of men. I don't understand why people try to bring up women like, "well women can be bad too!" Of course they can. But no one really cares. Men aren't "victims" of society. Because just like you said, men are the drivers of society, so we are on the whole much more responsible for everything that goes on. Even the feminazi movement exists because of men, weak men specifically. That is why JP's lectures are a lot of time directed towards men, because he understands that for society to progress, and for the post-modernist bullshit to end, men need to stop tucking their dicks between their legs and start taking responsibility.

[@sqreeze]

I'm not saying women are victims. God damn you need better comprehension. What i'm saying is exactly what I am saying. Most crimes are committed by men. It's just that simple. The distribution is hugely skewed towards men. The worlds atrocities are committed by men, especially those who are committed to not taking responsibility. Why do you keep citing statistics to state women commit some crimes? I obviously am not disagreeing with you. However, most psychopaths and sociopaths are men. I've watched tons of JP's videos and this is what he states. Beyond that you can see google the statistics yourself. Now am I saying men are evil? I am a man, I am not evil. You need to read without taking things personally. The skewed distribution is worldwide. Just like the income distribution, and I'm not saying things should be equal. JUST STATING FACTS. The problem is that the counter-feminist movement has created a new stratum of men who are trying to counter feminism but with the SAME MENTALITY AS FEMINISTS. Lack of self-responsibility, finger pointing and playing the blame game to the fullest. It's sickening.

[@sqreeze]

"pretty much everything in existence which benefits man kind has been invented or pioneered by a man or groups of men." I do believe because of this reason that of the two genders, women have a higher propensity to be an actual victim. Not all women are victims of course, but because of their inherent disadvantages compared to men, they have a higher probability of being controlled. Hence, high in agreeableness. Men are the ones with the hand of power. In fact I think the feminist movement is a result of men not taking responsibility and in turn women stepping up the plate and filling the gap that emasculated men left open. An emasculated man is where evil brews, and the cause of feminism. That is why every man has to be held accountable for their actions and to realize that we are never victims of society, because we are the creators of society. Just like ashleigh woytuik said, those who are selling their daughters to the sex trade are worthless fathers who are too weak to actually become productive members of society. It's this laziness and lack of courage that leads to the evil committed.

[@Moreoverover]

This was me during primary school, I was so oppressed not only by the students in class but the teacher also that I was afraid when I had to speak up because they would critique every single one of my actions. I sometimes went to church and I prayed to god that one of the bullies would die a horrible death when I was 8-11 years old. None of the teachers intervened because I lived in a small community and there would be to much trouble removing some of them from class. If you have children and they have trouble with speaking up for themselves, please teach them to speak up for themselves and be more masculine otherwise their suffering might be unbearable and the later life consequences so big that they start to wonder if their existence is a worthy thing. Though this probably happened to me due to being raised by a single mom. At least I'm doing well academically but I barely have any friends and my only outside activity is going to the gym. Before you leave your wife/girlfriend, think of the goddamn children.

Um tree, I'm sorry you are in such a situation, my heart was in a similar place months ago, then I found Jordan Peterson's videos and I watched and listened to them repeatedly, especially his short videos done by a KZbin channel called wordtothewise. I took walks also while listening to them. Then I began taking little steps to improve my life as Peterson was prescribing. I've gone from sleeping in my sister's living room floor to my own one room house in 6 months since I started listening to Jordan Peterson. Then I started listening to his lectures, very long lectures and I was taking notes and also writing down my plans. I also bought and read 12 rules for life by Jordan Peterson. I feel better about myself,the self hatred and resentment has reduced drastically. I opening my own music studio, even though I'm scared but with Jordan's wise words I've been able to take this next step. The most important thing I've learned so fa from Jordan is to adopt a lot of responsibility in my life, that is the medicine for resentment and it will be the source for positive emotion and meaning in your life. So I hope you stay well and strong. Much love brother.

I remember when I integrated my shadow. A psychological transformation resulted. I went from feeling weak and cowardly constantly repressing the part of myself that I considered “mean”. If someone did something to me I anxiously thought through what I should do. I constantly worried in every situation of someone wronging me and being too afraid to act. Now I am mean and my focus is on controlling myself in a manner where I am not being mean at inappropriate times. This sense of what is appropriate or not is internally guided. But when I use it for example on someone who wronged me I crush them to a caliber that is appropriate to their level of wrong doing. People sense I will do this when they are in my presence even though my disposition in generally friendly. This gives me a sense of power and people respect me. I have the willpower to act on what I think is right and wrong and stand out from the crowd. I used to be heavily influenced by others emotions, not anymore. I treat people how they should be treated even though I know many people would be defenseless if I decided to to openly make fun of them.

Indeed, i had a very negative childhood, nobody cared, nobody helped, not soon enough anyway. But maybe if this guy was my teacher i would have found a better path than depression and anxiety mixed with suicidal thoughts. Although to speak of the videos subject, when he spoke of people going down dark roads and killing innocent people? F*ck that and f*ck those people. Being sad or angry or broken isnt weak, but choosimg to kill for those reasons is beyond wrong. Im a broken man, you know what i think of? The death of murderers, rapists, and pedophiles, or corrupt leaders that ruin lives. Not mothers and fathers and children, siblings and best friends. Evil does exist, as he said, and it should be smashed like an ant under our collective heels.

Resentment is distilled discontent. You should speak out while you're discontent. Once you have resentment, you lose a large part of the ability to evaluate disruptive input, and instead of you growing from it, it will only make the resentment grow.

August 2021......I watch many of these students constantly fiddling with the piece of technology in front of them. They even distract themselves and some come in late! The points he makes and the lessons about human nature that this knowledgeable man is giving to them are the key to understanding life by facing up to the truth about our own human nature. I would record his discussion and go home listen again, and perhaps again, to really take in what he is talking about, THEN I would do my notes and summaries. I love being able to do that right now, thanks professor Peterson. No wonder we are where we are today. Many people don't know how to listen let alone LEARN to overcome their emotional states and be rational. Many are taken into higher learning without the true intellect to analyze what is being taught. Passing exams is generally easy but understanding is rare. Once again human nature trumps the teacher. How many of you sitting in those classrooms are now in this totalitarian lock down and suddenly beginning to understand how cruel and spiteful human leaders can be? Stand up, don't obey their orders.

In my time I have alienated myself from groups of people and lost countless numbers of friends because I was the guy who stood up to the oppressive authority figure, who then afterwards took out their anger that I had done that on everyone else. That’s not my fault they did that, and the fact that no one gave me props for being brave enough to stand up for myself spoke volumes about the characters of those people who then abandoned me.

[@cyranodemylakai9145]

Thank you! That sums up allot of the issues we have in society.

[@dimkakishko1]

I been listening to this guy for some time. Extremely smart individual. I think what helps him is how honestly he is able to analyze his own thought and behavior patterns and be optimistic about it. But I feel like he is trying to figure the whole world out all over again by himself. There is too much to understand, enough for a billion years, that's why there is faith, which we need. Christ, a much higher intellect, taught that we need faith, because by the time we come to understand evrything, the mistakes we will make in the process will destroy us. Like a child believes his father because he assumes his dad is smarter, even when he doesn't understand, so are we to trust Gods Word. And faith, is a revelation.

[@chrisgraham2904]

Peterson is not "trying to figure the whole world out all over again by himself". He's trying to teach his students to THINK, rather than regurgitate facts from a text book, which is rare in universities today. Faith is what one uses to form a belief when there are no facts or evidence to support the belief. Faith and supernatural God(s) and demons are in no way required to comprehend evil thoughts and actions. To Peterson's credit, he makes no such assertions.
