Professor Jordan Peterson is a Canadian psychology professor, author, and KZread personality. He is well-known for his bestselling book 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, as well as his podcast and many viral KZread videos. A self-described ‘classic British liberal’ and ‘traditionalist’, Peterson argues against the rise of political correctness and safe spaces, which he claims have swept many North American universities. He has also controversially argued against the Canadian Government introducing ‘gender identity and expression’ as a prohibited ground of discrimination.
ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.

Quite hard to give a short explanation but he was prescribed benzodiazepines and then went into pretty nasty withdrawals when trying to come off them, amongst other things with his family such as his wife being diagnosed with terminal cancer, though she subsequently recovered.

    @@saucylight in addition to Sam's comment, his family struggled with severe chronic health issues and only in recent years did most problems went away because of a severely limited diet. This is also when he stuck his neck out and stood up to the nonsense in society. He was well received but there was also loud criticism. I think his story can be summarized like this: life long illness in his family, everyone got better at the same time he seemed to be doing the most good in his life, but his daughter falls severely ill again, just as she recovers, her wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer, after surgery, there was a life threatening complication from the surgery, all the while, JBP became more and more dependent on prescribed meds which was severely addictive and not as advertised. He tried to quit and it nearly killed him. JBP was pretty much Abraham from the bible. After his ordeal above, the spirit of cain loomed over head and he lost some faith. So he needed the warm welcome, as much as we need him to return.

He changed quite significantly, but not entirely. But that's what the things he went through do to you. He had, and still has to some extent, to deal with a lot of stress and depression. Not speaking of the physical problems. But he has maybe even as much energy, just honed and aimed at different goals.

It's simply that after dying to defeat the Balrog, a divine authority sent his soul back to the living world, and granted him further strength and authority."

    The fundamentally fascinating thing about Mr. Peterson is that he is not just a machine that randomly produces 'smart and know-it-all' information, but a person that neutrally tries to discuss (interactively and genuinely) different perspectives on matters, questions, and statements. If you have seen more than one video of his opinion and interpretation on certain matters, you can see that he is consistently saying the same things but applied to different situations, and they do make sense indeed. Moreover, instead of being offended, annoyed, or even scared by questions, reactions, and interpretations, he is responding rather interested and challenged with the goal of creating a form of common knowledge everyone can learn from. This is a rare characteristic that you do not see often and I, personally, find admiring.

More as in pride because it gave me a good feeling seeing kindness and good wishes to another human being after little but years of negativity. A civil society certainly has dissent- but nothing but dissent is a hellscape. The arc of civilization has never been but an arc- we are all stupid and foolish to not see and cherish the gifts we have. So it is not patronizing- it is a sincere wish and hope that my college age child and those at this talk see far more complexity in the world- more beauty in the world than the miserable critical people who believe they are noble and some new society of wonder will rise in its place. Western rome felt the same and thereafter no one could read or fix a road or figure out what giant build the aqueducts- Nineveh fell and locals didn’t even know it’s name several generations later. We are arrogant enough to believe we control the planet’s thermostat but stupid enough to realize we actually do control whether we live in a civil society. I remain proud of my fellow citizens for showing us something new which actually discovered long ago between 2 rivers- the ability to live together. Best wishes

It only leads to snarky comments and finding ways to take people out of context in complicated discussion- which is bitter and simple . I didn’t really like his talk tonight. I think he has become repetitive and predictable. But a rare intellect who isn’t a drone professor where you pull a string and predictable groupthink is projected. Both still deserve civility. My daughter is the only female investment banker intern in large leveraged finance division at bulge bracket bank headquarters, was part of the American Embassy last summer in the Balkans. She has job offers from around the world. My goal is only her happiness whether that be running a hedge fund or home raising kids. Really doesn’t matter. But true, no society civil or barbarian without children. The beauty of kids is you become less self centered and you do feel a greater responsibility to the society you leave them to do the same. Women can have kids- that’s kinda a thing and that’s not their only value- nor is short selling Wall Street.

Yet you are promoting the idealogy (I presume) that says women have no value at any age other than being quasi men. Guess what, women are more valuable because they can have children, (as well as everything else). And I, as a women, would never ever denigrate or give up that value. But now we have to listen to men telling us that they too can become "women" just because they feel like it, can dominate sports, can invade women's spaces ect. So who here is devalueing who? And so what if not everybody wants traditional gender roles to continue, if that's a minority of people then you are just going to have to suck it up. What makes "you" so important that "you" get to change everybody else?

    I SPY RICHARD DAWKINS (FRONT ROW TO LEFT). Btw this was one of my favorite of JP's lectures. His ideas on us imitating the ideal by creating hierarchies, and the very concept of God existing (at the top of this hierarchy) for the sake of imitating a higher ideal weather or not God exists is amazing to come across as we ponder the formation of morality. His responses in the Q&A are simply divine. WATCH THE WHOLE THING!

He is from predominantly working class ( apologies for such profanity) background and seems prepossessed in explaining through his deep understanding of the human condition , to all those complacent enough to consider themselves competent in their misplaced understanding of the world . All power to him . A good man indeed . At this point , I shall leave him to the infante terriblisium and pursue my current pursuit of the rich and deep tapestry which is the music of Marvin Gaye ….

    The world needs more philosophers like Dr. Peterson. He's doing a good service by introducing young people to philosophy. You, too, can be a philosopher. The love of wisdom is the most powerful freedom one can have. But as a beginner where do you start? Well, I recommend starting with the classics such as Plato's Republic and working your way up. Having a good foundation with the classics will help you develop your philosophical understanding more easily. It's kind of like a cheat sheet because once you've read Plato your mind is quickly opened. Try it.

    I could say this is the best speech of Jordan Peterson I've ever seen (and boy I've seen a lot of them). I was pinned to my seat, analyzing every word he said and blown away by the amount of information that exists in his precise speech. I think the reason behind his complicated and detailed explanations is that he has gone through all of these concepts so many times in his mind (through thinking or rethinking by teaching it to other people) and therefore he is able to grasp these ideas in all their entirety and analyze them from many aspects.
