It wasn't until I started listening to Jordan's bible lectures 6 years ago that we finally started to wrestle with those lies.

Not a career and disposable income.

Ah yes. Because having to pick between having a career and having kids is clearly normal. All of Jordan's bullshit means nothing when people are forced to choose between making a living wage or raising a family. A problem that he will never talk about because he is no different from all the other frauds that make their money by screwing over the poor. In Jordan's case, by milking the people who are too poor to afford healthcare or education. Two basic rights in any civilized country.

My young adult son spent four years in jail awaiting trial on false allegations of being a “sexual predator”. Allegations brought about by a highly unhinged, jealous, and disturbed ex girlfriend. Due to Covid he spent needless time behind bars because the courts were shut down and we didn’t have the money to bail him out. He was eventually freed, but the damage done to him by being incarcerated with such charges over his head are inestimable. And yet, he flourishes today. He credits Jordan Peterson with saving his sanity and setting him on a path of non-victimhood. My estimation of JP is beyond measure. I only wish he was aware of how many young men’s lives he quite literally saves without even knowing it.

[@ReligionAndMaterialismDebunked]

:3 I'm glad I'm not the average American. "The average American" is an insult for anyone paying attention. Hell no. I have standards. Lol. Divorces are almost always expected, especially in America, where about 1 in 2 marriages end in divorce. It's not even a sensible system for a man, as it costs a lot to marry, even with a prenup/postnup you can lose everything 'you worked for' (Johnny Depp had a postnup, and almost lost a lot with tons of extremely harmful lies that ruined his career for multiple years), divorce costs a lot of money, and then you're on the list of people getting mocked for divorces (some people have 4 or so failed marriages lol). Fun fact in America with marriage: Most people marry around the same age, but most remarriages are age gaped (age gap is normal in regular relationships in the East, in Europe, etc.). Most suicides, about 85% of them, are males. If we talk about the biggest killer to UK men 50 or younger right now in the news, it's suicide. Lol. Almost all American gun deaths are suicides. You risk taking your own life more than being killed by someone else with a gun, even with how rampant mass shootings are in America. That's deeply comical in a dark way. Not having a gun saves you from yourself, the moral of the story. Lol. Almost 50% of Americans are obese, and around 75% of them are overweight. This is a predominantly religious country, arguably the most fanatical Christian nation with Bible fundamentalism (even though the American Founding Fathers openly spoke a lot of bad things about Christianity and the Bible), and yet gluttony, a "deadly sin", is expected for most Americans. Lol. Debt capital, too. Makes sense. Most of the drug (alcohol being one of the worst ones, but many don't claim alcohol as a drug, as if they don't know what a drug is) addicts are males, and most homeless people are males. You can destroy your health, your relationships, and your dreams of non-work stuff (artistry, gaming, travelling, etc.) by working 60 or so hours a week just to get by with the average low hourly rate that most Americans face, with a dollar that's collapsing with high inflation rates. You have to work more to get the same low amount of money, while most housing isn't public housing, so you have to directly pay for it, and it usually keeps going up in prices. Then you think, well, if I'm homeless, then I save so much money. Now you have to worry about mosquitos, where to shower, where to charge your phone, walk to a secured storage unit to get some of your stuff to use, hide from rain, hopefully don't get thrown up in a tornado, other weather issues, and not many people will want to date homeless people. Lol. If you go to fake communist lands, you might have free housing, but you're starving, destroying your immune system. If you have kids, like most due, more genetic defects from lack of nourishment, lower IQ rates, etc. You would need to get virtual work, assuming your government allows you to reach a non-"communist" country, and assuming you're even allowed, or could afford to use a computer. You could work on your phone, assuming you're allowed one, or could afford one, and not all work can be done on a phone, nor is it that practical to do a lot of work on your phone. It's a fumbling mess. Modern day slaves just so you're not starving to death. Meanwhile, they say only about 9% of Americans consume enough fruits and veggies a day. Wow. For so much supposed money, so much supposed education, and so much emphasis on wanting their kids to do better than them, they sure wreak havoc on their DNA that they're going to pass down. Now we have people with even worse health born into a world who have to work harder than the last generation, while having more health defects. It's a shit circus show, to say the least.

It's funny and really quite interesting how a mother can directly affect a childs growth through her overprotectiveness of the child. This exact moment gave me a random flashback; seriously a memory i thought i had long lost, to being in bed and having my mom reassure me i didn't feel good and that i could stay home. I was bullied alot and well i didn't always get the best grades (my mom knew this), regardless im sure it was because of one of these two reasons i lied about being sick, i can't say how many tines this happened but i know it wasn't just once. Now that i've grown up i see how we; EVEN AS CHILDREN we have a choice. I get the arguement of trying to defend the lack of guidance which evidently leads to making bad decisions but.. that holds zero accountability, if you don't make a concious choice to sit down or find these moments of eye opening truths which actually provide you WITH guidance, well it seems to me you'll only be stuck in a loop of a fantasy land where you wait for a hero to come and save you... incredibly grateful for this video apologies for the rant 🙏🏻🙌🏻💯💯

You made the most important job of all a priority. A priority that very few get should be a priority. It hits me so often with sadness. The absurdity of having your own children and then leaving them for someone else to take care of. It makes absolutely no sense. My husband wanted a divorced when our children were 1,5 and 3. I was without a job and then without a home. Hell to me was real. My little children started daycare then. Today I regret not knowing that I had a choice. I could´ve, I think (but I am not sure), and had our children at home, and when they were supposed to be with their dad he could've picked them up from my place (instead of a daycare). Who knows if their dad would´ve gone along with this (doubt it), but this has haunted me ever since I realized that I didn't do differently. I did my best but I think I was traumatized from what we went through that I couldn't think clearly. In Scandinavia we cannot have homeschooling though, which I find is horrible because it is like the gov´t owns ones children. My eyes have opened up more and more throughout my childrens lifetimes. Our most precious little human beings are treated as cattle and it enrages me. It makes me happy to know some mothers do have homeschooling. Your children are so blessed, your hole family too. Our whole society reaps fruits from children growing up with homeschooling.

That's good that you're not selling yourself short. Use this time in your life to acquire useful skills when you become older. Travel a little and cross paths with people who have different world views. And if possible try to uplift those around you who may be traveling down the same life path as you or are struggling. Because being a parent is tough and the old adage "it takes a village to raise a child" still rings true today. If you have skills that make you valuable to society you will always have something to exchange.The human need to belong to a community often gets neglected in the modern age so if you can acquire skills, namely rare and useful skills, you will find that there will always be a community there to support you when you need rest.

Never have a boyfriend, have a dating rotation until a qualified suitable partner asks for marriage and be honest with them . They’ll quicken or leave. And if you must have a bf never let him stop you from finding your husband.

[@SeemsLogical]

@@olalovelee I strongly recommend against the dating rotation, that is monkey branching and monkey branching is the selfish way to date. It's disrespectful and manipulative to be dating several people at once. Commit to seeing one person at a time, learn them, try to predict what a future with them might be like and follow it through with them as a sign of respect. If it doesn't work out, ditch them before you move onto a new person. And I strongly recommend not jumping into a new relationship right after cutting loose from a failed relationship. Take time to make sense of what happened, identify what you are accountable for in the failure and make concrete actions to fix and improve those flaws. Then you can start looking for the next person. They teach the monkey branch mentality in the labor market where you "don't leave a job until you have a new job already lined up" which works in business because it's a company you're dealing with. But when it's personal and you're dealing with a person's entire being, handle them with care and respect. Because how you treat them will be mirrored back on you to their best capability. So if you play nice you can expect the same, but if you try to game them don't be surprised if they game you back. And after a while you do start to form a reputation, so make sure you form a good reputation in the dating market because people talk and people you think might not know each other really do. A good reputation ensures you can cast a wide net.

I used to be one of those people thinking we should all be gender neutral in everything (but like everyone who thinks this, I was just bandwagoning the popular rhetoric that seemed correct on the surface), until I watched and read data and studies in evolutionary psychology that makes it impossible to believe that we're all born a blank slate and molded by society completely.

our rulers believe there are too many "irresponsible masses" and have/are convincing us to stop having children (or use products to prevent us - among other [yt censors comments] techniques). funneling power (wealth) to the responsible few is the job of government (media), and is perhaps what john the elder was referring to when he wrote about the "beast" (and "false prophet"). and perhaps the people with the courage to seek and speak truth were what his remote viewing (not divine intervention) revealed to him as the "messiah." christ's weapon, after-all, comes from his mouth, and christ himself purportedly said "seek your heart and there you will find me. if the anti-christ (religion) is many, so is the christ.

[@opossumdreams]

From a theological standpoint, when we feel too much weight, too much responsibility AND we judge ourselves as unworthy, we say to God, you’re son’s sacrifice wasn’t quite big enough for me. I stand humbled and a little closer to a healed heart. TY. ♥️

It’s so interesting how this man can explain my “quasi midlife crisis” in a few seconds and I needed almost a year to figure this out… As a woman turning 31 last year and having reached all the career goals I’ve been working towards to for basically my whole life, I suddenly looked around and wondered “Is this is? Is this all there is to my life? Work?”. I felt a deep sense of dissatisfaction and also shame because I couldn’t be grateful for what I had achieved. I resented everything. It took quite some time to figure out that I simply didn’t want to spend my whole life working my butt off. I want to live, I want friends, a relationship (no kids, but I suppose most other women want that at some point). And it’s okay to “simply” want a life! To not be striving for one career goal after another… for both men and women. However, society seems to put a huge emphasis on work as a means to, I don’t know, fulfilment in a way? Well, anyway, I love listening to Dr. Peterson. I’ve been making much more sense to myself ever since I started devouring his lectures, books, and podcasts :-)

Work became culture. It's what they promised us right? Job, money security, independence. Well it works for some time, but we all end up here right. And then it all makes sense.. Priorities got mixed, that's all. Effectively rendering some people as slaves to glorified ambition at all cost.

[@ivanbukac4618]

I'm glad you are gonna get straight. I was pretty messed up without a plan and having nobody to guide me, professor just said the thing I knew but I just couldn't articulate. I really do wish you the best and most importantly, teach others with your mistakes. I'm just 22 and have plenty and I tell them to my younger siblings so they go down a smarter path than I did.

[@darkwand8800]

I love your reply probably more than any other. You make so many incredible points! Society does consider work to be one of the most meaningful things. And they think status comes out of it too, but all these values are quite superficial, and they are not lasting; do not provide lasting satisfaction. But society thinks that it should. And that if you don't agree, well, then there must be something wrong with you. There is nothing wrong with you. You are starting to see under the lie we have all been sold. It's not that what you have achieved is meaningless either, but it just doesn't provide to you the things that they told you it would, does it? I am so glad to hear that you are working your way to finding real life. It will not be in vain!!!

[@falkaa88]

Still remember that you can and should be proud of all that you have achieved in your career. It is a part of you and your life. Now good luck finding the missing puzzles of the other parts of your life. Hope all works out well for you.

Jordan seemed really relaxed and laid back in this interview. Great job.

Chris is good at interviews

He spoke with Chris before and knows that he won’t be attacked, so he can go into thoughts instead of defence strategies

You are creating something that has more value and better production than 99.99% of anything that the broadcasting corporations are doing. Kudos to you sir.

[@TesfayeAman]

I feel like JP knew me well in person. Every pint of breath that comes out of his mouth speaks about my terrible life. #30 years of laboring in work-life; unmarried, no kid, financially broke, just living only 1/3 of what life abounds to me. Wake up, younger people! Life started to feel bitter, sour, and full of melancholia when one reached 40.

[@TiagoQuadra]

I feel like Chris found himself a damn good personal coach (and friend) and well deserved. Can't help to envy it a bit, less about the personal coach, more to have the competency to deserve it, but well deserved indeed. Thank you, Chris.

[@bbkmitch]

I believe Jordan is better when being interviewed than interviewing. Excellent interview!

[@MariA-yr8kd]

I had the opportunity of seeing Dr. JP on tour in Kansas. I was amazed at how many people stood in line waiting to enter the venue in the rain. It was truly a special night. Sometimes it’s hard to put into words how much he’s personally helped me sort through my life.

[@curtisvalle5141]

Kansas City? at the Uptown? That is Missouri. Sold out months in advance. What was his main thrust? I was really wanting to go.

[@10onpump5]

I’ve been a fan of Dr. Peterson for quite some time. I’m always amazing at his willingness to pause and deeply consider what he is going to say next.

[@0r1x]

Probably the best interview I've seen with Jordan Peterson. Amazing job Chris, you allowed your interviewee to blossom. Well done

[@adamwall7852]

This might just be my favorite interview/podcast with Dr. Peterson ever! I thoroughly enjoyed every single second of it. Packed with a load of knowledge, guidance, and passion. Thank you to you both for this ❤️

[@joshhurst4170]

Almost every single section of this discussion resonates with me deeply right now. Thanks for having the conversation fellas.

[@redibo.x6769]

I always said I didnt want kids at 24 I was working feeling that way. I think I’d been through a lot as a kid and I couldn’t imagine bringing a child into the world to watch them have to suffer with life the way I did. But then something changed I met the best man I’ve ever met and he made me see that life doesn’t have to be suffering and chaos. Now we have an 8year old son and he’s had the best childhood and all I want to do is give him a good life and no I have the best purpose and live in love and light. The world isn’t as dark as we are taught if one only remembers to turn on the light ❤

[@thedynamicsolo4232]

I was late to the "Peterson" party, but what a party. I was miffed by his early aversion from teaching Christian morality, but that has changed. When we meet such an intellectually honest soul, how could I let any presuppositions flavor my judgement of the man? As far as watching the body of his work and his directives and honest changes, he turned into a representative of what Christ had been saying all along. If we do not choose the moral high ground, if we languish in mediocrity, we will self destruct corporately and individually. The high calling to do this needs constantly reiterated and practiced. When we set ourselves up as gods, we fail miserably. America as an example did have its injustices with early slavery and later with segregation was working these diseases to cure them. With the Christian ideal, we scrubbed slavery, we scrubbed off these social evils, but the focus on individualism is a two edged sword. We can find justice and practice it, but when we become too self focused with the extraction of the ultimate authority, unchecked ego will destroy us. Hosea 4:6.....

[@chrismutisya]

So refreshing to listen to Dr. Jordan B. Peterson. He is our global father, mentor, and guide.

[@kaivogel253]

nope, not global. There are several countries who don't like his spreading of nazi propaganda, lies and pseudoreligious bullshit. it's downright laughable to claim he is liked by all when he regularly insults 50% of the worlds population ;)

[@Crispyroce]

The cathedral-like ambiance and the tessellating windows perfectly complement the biblical themes of Jordan's teachings.

[@BeggarsNdChoosers]

“You are your own worst enemy.” I believe sayings are wisdom handed down amongst generations to give us insight to the battle we will face inevitably. Entitled we’ve become, through tech thinking we are in a “new” society. We lack the need to strive. And that is so dangerous. Please get up today and meet your resistance with resilience. For keeping the ball rolling will be your greatest feat!

[@lambchopsmtl]

This is such a great interview! The part about the nemesis being yourself is so good and really spoke to me. You can always better yourself. What a great talk.

[@kaivogel253]

Peterson was being personal. I think somewhere down in his vicious psyche he realizes all the hate and misinformation he's spreading doesn't make him a good person.

[@grahamcoulson7509]

The fact that Chris is friends with JP, gives him an insightful and confident stance in the interview. No fillers, no pandering, no sneering, simply fantastic 🙏🏻

My second time watching this, Now approximately a year later. It is beautiful to see from even this interview to now, how much healthier Dr. Peterson clearly is. Appearance-wise that is, because intellectually he is always spot on. Congratulations Chris on all of your growth and success that has followed this. This interview is exemplary of why exactly you are at this very moment. Aesthetically pleasing while incredibly introspective and thought provoking. Keep up the great work. I look forward to seeing what the future holds for you mate.

[@tavorliman9286]

The chapter of "truth in the service of love" is probably the most purely meaningful thing that I have heard anyone ever come up with in the English language! That was so DEEPLY TRUE! I CAN NOT EXPLAIN HOW GOOD THAT WAS!

[@lacy-k]

I love how finite and certain Dr. Peterson makes me feel. It gives me a sense of strength and confidence. It's a solid feeling. Thank you so much for this interview 🙏 ❤

It’s that toxic masculinity

[@nikko.lottsahcocc6917]

You will find high levels of toxicity embedded anywhere there is high levels of estrogen…. The only thing that can balance out a toxic estrogen level is testosterone! Testosterone is craved by both women and men.. however more estrogen is desired by nobody and is akin to a curse… testosterone is the opposite and what is responsible for masculinity, therefore it cannot be toxic, even in abnormally high concentrations.

@@wendySstrub815 do your chores distract you from him insulting women with every 3rd sentence and preaching violence and dominance as the highest goals?
