Everyone is screaming to pay attention to them out of the need to matter in some way shape or form. Instead of teaching individuals to eradicate victim mentality so that these people can stop their own pity parties and become strong healthy individuals, we're perpetuating this nonsense by indulging their delusions.

But is someone who has had a lifetime of illness and suffering really the best person to be taking life advice from? Would you take dieting advice from an obese person? Would you take financial advice from a broke person? Would you take relationship advice from an incel? Would you take song writing advice from failed musician? Would you take restaurant hygiene advice from someone who's just had their business closed down because of a rat infestation? Would you take parenting advice from someone whose children have all ended up in prison? Would you take directions from someone who's lost? Jordan Peterson is simply wrong. The truth is the exact opposite. "Taking responsibility" is an active decision to accept that life is suffering and to ignore your problems instead of dealing with them. If you're feeling resentment at the world, at the human race, at your lot in life, then you should be expressing those issues and refusing to play the game until people take notice and realise that there are issues that we can solve when we work together. Communication is the key. I cannot do anything to help you if you don't make it clear to me that you have a problem and neither can anyone else. If you accept that life is suffering then I'm going to think that you're content with your life as it is and no problems will be solved. It's only by your expressing your discontent and refusing to accept the status quo that others can notice that there are things going wrong in our society that we need to work together to fix.

There is no adequate or satisfying way to express my gratitude. It is, however, the acceptance of injustice, immorality, and the dumbing down of education, by example, must be differentiated from an acceptance of personal suffering.

It's the attitude and beliefs those students, at the Christian school have, that gives them the drive to be better scholastically. They've been taught to feel gratitude for what they have and that if they work hard, they're giving themselves a chance at a better life. However, like Job, it may not come but they know that in the gratitude they'll be rewarded by a place in heaven. Secular kids don't see that reward. Life is hard and then you die. That's depressing and can only lead to nihilism. Once you reach that point, what's the difference whether you work hard or not and they're not as prepared as the one who's grateful for their lives and opportunities.

@@JackHaveman52 I agree with your first point about religious students' academic drive due to their beliefs, but who are you to place such a simple and broad view over secular students? "Life is hard and then you die. That's depressing and can only lead to nihilism." No... it is not always depressing and does not only lead to nihilism. Believe it or not, not everyone requires a utopic promise to keep them moving. The idea that life was able to form and evolve by chance, by all the complexity and imperfection which then leads to struggle is in itself quite beautiful... why would it be depressing?. The reward comes through: accepting your circumstances, recognizing and being grateful just for the absurdly astronomical odds of you being born, and leading the best life you can with that until this brief anomaly of light and consciousness eventually departs. In other words, our purpose comes through utilizing the small time we have to make ourselves the best people possible. Not everyone requires a promise into the golden gates of heaven, and the dread of eternal suffering to achieve that purpose.

@@Max-jm6md My point is that when you believe that life is hard and then you die, is that you're not looking at the good things in life or that things can get better. The religious believe that implicitly but the secular have to believe it through their own nature and personality. The secular that believe the life is hard aren't feeling any gratitude for the good things in life. There are secular folk, ME INCLUDED, that love life and see hardship as a normal part of our good life and prospects but it's not integrated into a social belief system. It comes from within. That's the one thing that Christians do and Muslims do it too. They express gratitude for their lives, no matter how hard, through prayer. Gratitude is the big difference and the secular can have it, too. "Life is hard and then you die" is nihilistic and it offers nothing. To say "Life is hard but it's good" that's what allows one to work towards prosperity. Every person that I ever worked with that carried a negative attitude were always unhappy and quite often mired in debt. Be grateful, whether religious or not and you'll find that you're life will be happier. Also, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. The complainers are the ones that are heard and it's unacceptable to complain in a religious setting. However, the secular complainers are encouraged. That's what's happening now with all this talk about oppression and privilege. It's complaining that's actually being propagated in a lot of our schools. It's a complex topic and it needs a lot more attention than I can give in a KZbin comment section. I was only hoping to start people to thinking about why they're so upset about their lives so maybe they could work towards fixing it.

Like failed HS athlete's pride in their sons athletic ability and winning at sports, as said will lead to a fall for majority of people as finite professional sports positions. As for someone who doesn't feel like they are like anyone else normal, and rather than feel like a weirdo, they group themselves with other people who think their "Beta A Gendered Sis Brain Rot", and have pride in their weirdness. In basic terms I feel one shouldn't be ashamed of being different, but with today's image problems and identity obsession its morphed into a cult of acceptance. Where if you're morbidly obese, that's just you honey, eat up. I'm pretty sure I could go to a university as a normal straight white male, and tell them I believe I'm a mutated woman daughter of a deer, and have them invent me my own flag, and they'd rather me accept this as truth and have pride in my bizarre ideas, rather than bring me back down to reality and giving me the psychiatric help I clearly need.

This is the ONE clip that even if JP ever loses his way, I will forever keep. When he reveals that our ancestors (mind you I'm asian but american) figured out that oppression will eventually be boiled ALL the way down to the individual, it is absolutely true, and what does it mean? It's indicative of the fact that human life spans are so short that we are doomed to repeat the same mistakes of the past over and over and over again until education can be expedited into a brain faster than 22 years of a young human's life.

When you become the largest group, you can think you gain power, but then YOU are the oppressor. God bless you Jordan.

"Life is hard", and "You're not special." Two fundamental truths that are not taught, and used to be learned through experience. And now though instant gratification and telling everyone they are special, nobody learns anything. These people are lost. Led astray from those who can provide the most guidance, and left to their own devices. Robbed of their childhoods, and fashioned to enter into adulthood completely unprepared. I completely understand JP's fervor during this speech.

Only ever take personal responsibility for your own behaviour not other peoples and do not harm yourself psychologically by playing the victim for other peoples bad behaviour.

In terms of design it's even worse than its predecessor. Inclusiveness is no excuse for poor design, you can have inclusiveness and good design. With the old one the colors of the trans flag + the black and brown really clashed with the rainbow flag. Politically I don't mind the cause, I'm no conservative, but this is like the only progressive flag we got and it's ugly. Somebody needs to fix this. And then they made that. A chaotic and repulsive spiral of some alright flags and some others that were pretty bad. It's not even a flag. It's a joke. Anyway, that concludes my totally irrelevant rant about how nobody understands flag design. Except the ase flag. It works well I think. But I do agree. Sex is degenerate no matter who's having it.

I think the best thing to take away from this is that a perfect, peaceful and equal world does not exist and we just gotta accept it instead of getting upset or angry over it. Funnily enough the biggest reason's why people act with greed or cruelty is because they are upset at the world, so adapting to that way of thinking actually would make the world a better place if everyone did it but it's impossible because of how big and diverse the world is. Atleast religious ideas had the power to do that in some big scale which is quite remarkable imo, altho obviously I'm not saying the these ideas were correct
