What he missed, because he's not a biologist, is that a lobster turns red when it has been boiled and is in fact very dead. It was a shining example of someone speaking with expertise in a field they do not have and saying something goofy and embarrassing, and thus became quoteable.

While getting my philosophy degree, I would often describe philosophy as "not answering the question, but understanding the question".

I find the word "silenced" very interesting when it's used by Peterson and people like him, because nobody he accuses has actually got the power to make him stop talking. The real meaning behind it seems to be "you're not listening to me", with a spin put on to make it sound like not being listened to is some kind of an injustice being done to him, rather than a choice anyone else in the world has the agency and ability to make. It's manipulative sort of language because the intended effect of all that is to make it seem like making the choice to ignore what this person has to say would put you morally in the wrong. And I wonder if, for some people, that effect would make a person saying phrases like "I'm being silenced" instead of "some people don't want to listen to me" more likely to seem like they're *right* regardless of what they're actually saying.

@An On Through the wonderful math of ratio calculation can you show that there are more non-homeless people you better not to want to hang out with. Of course, you have deep insights into the structure of that particular group, but you do just that what is said above. You judge them disconnected from all other people and only inside of their group. Is this valid? All the problems and illnesses you mentioned are not specific to this group of people. But the accumulation of "bad behavior" or the drugs?. For example, what do you expect if you open a sales booth with dandruff shampoo. And for blonde people only for one dollar. Which people do you expect to gather there? I do not want to belittle your experience or your report. But you cannot speak for everyone. That would also be problematic as homeless people rarely travel the world and collect statistics. I think "homeless" is once again such a laziness term, since everything else is inadmissible and should be viewed as individual fates. The solution also needs more than generalizations. Namely money, money, money and social(workers). Besides, definition is one of those things. For example, my country simply defined the gypsies as homeless. And since these were also viewed as worthless, they were simply killed. That was the Nazis' solution. That can happen very quickly. In 10 years. There are quite some people these days who think that way. And which group is now defined as worthless? Blonde with dandruff? Sorry for bringing up that shit from 80 years ago. Stay healthy, warm and fit:)

My approach to law specifically has been really rewarding as I get a lot of compliments on my ability to approach the same Subject from Many sides. The couch example is interesting. Had you not said “couch” and merely shown the sides I wonder how many people may have thought love seat or chair before landing on couch. Our experiences are so varied as humans. Alas.

I would get lost in the volume of new, strange-to-me vocabulary, and then I'd miss a couple of salient points while worrying about the vocabulary, then I'd get bored because I felt lost overall. So I'm really happy I found this channel, thanks to another one of your subscribers toddy1609. Oh and your outfit is amazing

Yeah, thats how they indoctrinate you , make it digestible so everyone can wathc it , and now its your first real experience with philosophy and they can say whatever they want and youll believe them because you can't yet think critically on a level to detect small fallacies (wich this video and channel is full of , trust me) , please for your sake try to stick with books at the beggining , even if its boring to look up every word , it gets better trust me , if you continue to watch these easily digestible videos you wont develop philosophically and youll just become brainwashed by whatever propaganda the person making the video is trying to sell you

This is the first video of yours that I watched after your channel being endlessly recommended to me! Imagine my delight when the video opened with a concise and engaging explanation of phenomenology! I'm impressed with how well researched and thought out your analysis of Peterson's work is, while making me giggle for the entirety of the video. I especially liked the way you presented the bits about Husserl -- Finally someone who understands the phenomenology of reading his work, birdsong and all 😄. This video was an absolute treat! Can't wait to watch more

the bits with the philosophy quotes and the chickens really evoked the feeling of trying to read a dense text as someone with adhd

Just wanted to add that I am a phil undergrad with full on ADHD. It is hard, and many times disheartening, but you realize that reading philosophy texts is hard work for everyone, indifferently of their intelligence, they are made to be studied not simply read, and the thrill of discovering new concepts with which to see the world in new ways motivates some of us enough to surpass other people who might be left too disheartened because for the first time they have to deal with something which requires a lot of effort.

@@OntologicalCatastrophe I, as a dyslexic, found that if I engaged with the text as if I am debating against it I could retain more and have a better understanding. To truly be able to understand a position you have to be able to tear it into little pieces. The funny part is that you eventually realize that every position has its weaknesses and everyone is wrong in some way even the nihilists. That is when you realize the best course of action is to pick and choose what you think is the best and produces the best results and move forward from there. I hold very libertarian views because I want people to be able to do their own thing the way they want to do it and I want to be able to my thing the way I want to do it. I like talking about solutions I think are better but recognize in terms of philosophy, ethics, and politics there are very rarely any right answers. I disagree with this channel on pretty much every ethical and philosophical ground yet her view points are valid and her lifestyle choices are her choices. I think they are wrong but I can not demonstrate that they are wrong. So the best way forward in my opinion is we talk, try to understand each other perspectives learn from each other what we can learn and let each other live our lives the way we want. This is why, here in America, I dislike both political parties, they are both trying to control how we live our lives. The Right is filled with people trying to legislate religion to the nation, and the Left is filled with people that demand their way of life be accepted as objectively good, healthy, moral, and right. Makes me want to say things that will get the message flagged. TLDR: Debate against everything to gain a deeper understanding of it. Live and let live. The Right and The Left are both messed up morality enforcing tyrants.

Hello my dear Abigail and team. You can not imagine how Happy I was to discover a channel in youtube making a great critic video about Jordan Peterson's philosophy and other amazing videos you have, in the way you make them. I was so happy that I wanted to show your videos to my love couple and her housemates, who live in a transfeminist lesbian utopia, here in Granada, south of Spain (I mean that they live in a house which at the same time is a tranfeminist association). The problem is that, it seems, that being millenial and woke doesn't make you know and speak english, so a lot of my fellow ones can not enjoy your beautiful videos. I was wondering, do you want someone to translate the subs of your videos to Spanish? I would be happy to do that, big hugs :) 🏳️‍🌈 (I already did translate the introduction)

But he often goes on public platforms and discusses topics such as climate change, the trans community and what have you, with no actual experience on the subject. And an obvious unwillingness to actually learn about them. But like they say (and im paraphrasing here), it’s hard to get someone to understand something, when their livelihood depends on misunderstanding it. I first heard about it through a Caelan Conrad video on YT. Then when I looked into it further, it seems he has admitted to not having seen a patient professionally since 2017. I can’t really post links cause YT will generally nuke the comment, but here’s an excerpt from an article: ‘Shortly before Jordan Peterson decided he couldn’t be both a media personality and a practicing psychologist at the same time, he cancelled sessions with patients, later claiming illness, while maintaining an appointment to appear on television; he responded to messages from patients with auto-reply emails which brought up the challenges of his burgeoning fame, directing recipients to send argumentative emails to his ideological opponents; he employed his wife to sort through emails from patients without first asking for their consent; he shared potentially identifying information about patients with other patients; and he twice visited the restaurant where Samantha worked, returning after she had implored him not to, having seemingly forgotten that she worked there’. You can copy and paste the text above or just google variations on ‘Jordan Peterson abandoned patients’ and there’s a few articles. Again, can’t confirm or deny it’s true, which was why I said allegedly. Like, not saying the man hasn’t got some merits. Some people clearly get a lot out of his old lectures. But like, ignoring all the above, he had taken a massive shift to the right wing in recent years, seemingly because it’s extremely lucrative. That alone is enough for me to worry about someone’s credibility

a gem of a channel. both visually and mentally ascended!

Yo, your content is really nice. Thanks for those videos on Peterson. I do appreciate his speeches on the importance of truth and responsibility. Still, the more he tries to have the correct opinion on all the topics, the harder he becomes to listen to. Appreciate your work, your calm approach to different ideas, and care about esthetics. Cheers

I'm not ashamed to say I'm more afraid of the Arsonist than I've ever been of a fictional character. I get literal chills when he's on screen

He's... subtler than Hannibal Lecter. He is, if you will, Lecterer. He's not as Lecter as Dr. Ford, though. Doctor Ford's the Lecterest. You hear his theme, you quake. It means your world, your assumptions, the notes you didn't play, it's all going to crash around you.

@@vainpiers I'd imagine the second you realise it's poisoned you'll either leap up and call for your bodyguard Hector, or stay seated and engage in witty banter to avoid drinking it whilst also trying to prevent her from knowing about your suspicions long enough to either turn the tables or to find a socially acceptable excuse to leave. Of course, you both know that she knows you know, but protocol demands that you both maintain the fiction regardless. Murder is simply the way of such matters, but impoliteness is an unforgivable crime.

I mean it's two consenting adults. So long as they're fully aware of what they're getting into, and what might come out of it. Most people might not approve, but what consenting people do in bed was never about public approval anyway.

Very glad that your channel was recommended to me. I feel like I've been stuck in a rut for years and I was in dire need of a fresh perspective. The anti-fire hysteria bit was pretty funny too.

I'm so happy to have been recommended this channel. So interesting,so insightful. Thanks Abigail.

Gorgeous commentary. Looking very much forward to more from this channel. (And to more of those sublime CC subtitles for the music, like at 29:40: "sexy, dark music - like a petrol-soaked rag slowly catching fire"... Can such notes truly be played?! I would love to buy the person who wrote that description a fine lunch =)
