I'd love to hear a radical leftist describe the following "If you were in a debate, and your goal was to prove that something that was truly correct, was in fact true. What criteria would it require to prove that theory is true to yourself?". If it's anything other than providing factual evidence based on statistical analysis, and providing that the analysis was taken in the most credibal way and further more developing a checks and balances system against small human error and how that would effect that statistics realistically... then providing that information to the listener and have them debate it, and offer no holes in your argument. If they can't disprove the evidence, or provide more reasonable evidence it has to be taken as credibal fact. Meaning honest supportive analysis is how man kind had always confirmed facts. If you ignore statistics analysis, you're blindly fighting a battle based on a few things you've seen on TV. No coyote has ever survived a full on hit from a stick of dynamite or a train, but most westerners have seen several episodes of the looney toons.

The man conducts himself with a level of discipline and poise that is not often seen by many in the public eye. He seems to be refining himself and his approach with each and every interview and speaking engagement, it's quite remarkable. Absolutely wonderful and thought provoking discussion.

I love JP, but he’s not exactly unique in that respect. The media and society, however, do not usually want to listen to long, involved lectures and debates. The public was lucky enough to discover him because he took a stand on this PC language war (and actually knew what he was talking about and was a strong orator) at just the time it was really heating up in the zeitgeist. If he hadn’t published those initial KZread videos about C16, it’s unlikely the general public would have ever heard learned he existed. My point is simply that if you find this guy fascinating because you love to learn via well spoken, prodigiously researched individuals rather than just love JP for his eloquence on issues you care about, there’s a galaxy of other guys like this out there for you to watch.

My mom loves Jordan after 15 minutes of listening.

Haven't started video yet but felt compelled to comment just to say how much I admire Jordan. I've listened to his lectures and podcast as well as his daughter's podcast for years now. I'm a 30 year old guy that's been homeless and suffering from severe anxiety for 7 years now. Although I've been on methadone since 2015 and clean I have yet to clean my room up. Jordan's compassion with intelligence and no nonsense approach to fixing things has always been alluring to me. When things are down I try and imagine what Jordan would say to me in that moment. I have no family and feel like he gives me an idea of a father figure/ therapist/ mentor/ friend when I need it most. I haven't missed a podcast yet. I wish to one day be able to get into school to study maths as that and the physical sciences has always been my interest and truly is my motivation to get up everyday. I pray that in time I become more confident, less awkward, and in a place where I'm a bit more content and surrounded by positive people I can show my love to. Thank you Dr. Peterson for being a guiding light to me. It's meant a lot. You've helped more people than I'm sure you can fathom, and that are in situations that are more unique and varied than anyone can comprehend. Thanks man. Thanks.

I'm not done with the video yet but this is the best interviewer I've seen with Peterson. He asks the question and lets Peterson go where he wants to go with it. I'm not sure he'd be the best with every subject but he does an amazing job here. You can tell that it's "Not about him.". That is unfortunately extremely rare.

I have a feeling I will have to rewatch this video - so much fascinating content. A very dynamic thinker gifted with clear articulation.

Dr. Peterson is a very eloquent man, incredibly knowledgable and with the courage to live as he advocates. He is a great man and very clear on his message. I, therefore, fail to understand his critics but for the resistance to accepting difficult truths and avoidance of losing 'control' and their 'moral ground'.

I am a new subscriber. Not male but an over 50s woman. Few years older than yourself. I am from Northern Ireland and grew up in a society were there was way big differences and all that brings. I myself count myself British you are probably not interested in that. I also have been married to the same man for 40 years with 3 married children and 6 grandchildren. I have a fairly high iIQ but chose to stay at home with family. So in saying all this I agree so much with what you say despite I might add some goes past my level of thinking I am getting there. Please keep up your good work I feel it is right and gives the younger people food for thought. I will keep listening and learning I hope

Valerie Loney Irish American here. A lot of Americans do not understand the background and heritage of the average Irish citizen. Basically due to the fact over 50% of Irish Americans are Farmers so they don't actually interact socially with Irish Americans on an intellectual level. It's embedded in our culture to self-sustain and be family oriented individuals. And sadly, since most Left individuals occupy areas of Capital or State assistance areas and not production, they become out of touch with the true identity of Irish history. I physically come to tears knowing my family's origin of Ireland are fervently destroying this identity. The individuality and values it takes to be productive for the sake of survival and protection is being withered away. Keep your stance on being an individual, but don't be afraid of voicing your values. Rationality developes in all aspects of life and there's nothing wrong about having that type of integrity.

Rational Judgment Thankyou for that I was not aware that a lot of people don’t know about Irish heritage. It is a complex field I know. There is the North and the South each governed differently. The North were I’m from is considered British I identify as being that. Some don’t so as I said complex. I have just subscribed to this channel as I like Jordan Peterson and I like what I hear so far. He speaks a lot of truths which I think we all believe deep down but are afraid to say in case we offend someone or another. I feel the world has gone into chaos and we need to sort a lot out.

D. Saunders That is perfectly fine no offence taken believe me. Ireland and Northern Ireland are a complex situation with on going problems we could talk all night about that so many different opinions. I myself am from Northern Ireland and identify as British. I love listening to Jordan Peterson his rational thinking appeals to me. I think I have been waiting so long for someone like him to speak out the way he does. I have stopped watching main steam news for a long time now. So it is nice to hear different points of views.

I've always considered myself as being liberal, as being on the left, but this movement to radicalise everything on that side is both surprising & disappointing to me. As a bisexual female I've always believed in free speech, you cannot announce yourself as liberal but follow that up by exclaiming that it can only be considered to those thought to be the minority. To group people together in a community is ridiculous, I in no way want to be part of a LGBT "community", just as I don't speak for all white women, I don't speak for all those in that "community" & I certainly don't want those speaking on my behalf, not during this movement in particular. Jordon, personally I think that your work is wonderful, you've renewed my love of psychology & have enlightened me about religion.

JP came along and taught me how to think about things with the progress of mindset but disassociate myself from any form of identity politics.

Fernando Marquez, my reluctance to be placed amongst the many into a community, so to speak, is based on my desire to not be expected to speak for the masses. I'm noticing that such communities have a tendency to have one speak for the masses & I'm absolutely oppose to having others opinions be considered my own based on one singular similarity that we share. I see that there's safety in numbers, that having other individuals validate your opinions can be useful. Though, in such a time as this, it appears that the radical left are using their circle as an echo chamber, bouncing around their nonsensical ideas & nodding their heads as each person condemns those outside of their circle. It makes me embarrassed to have any shared opinions with them, even if it is merely their most mentally stable & rational few.

ok so (paraphrasing the questions here, timestamps are to the questions themselves) 4:23 intro 12:25 answers to the "jpb is a charlatan etc" criticism 23:27 did you choose a different path to people like jonathan haidt and if so why? 33:27 people disagree with you on that we should react as harshly to communism as to nazism, "national socialism is much worse morally than marxism" what do you say to this? 45:11 your critical commentary over the last year and a half has been more focused on the left than on the right, people argue that the nationalist right movements pose more of a serious threat to society, what do you make of that? 53:00 ethnic groups have on average scored differently on iq tests, assuming this is true, should we talk about it? what is your view on this subject? 1:14:13 what is your view on "european/ethnic pride"? 1:19:50 on the question of Islam and immigration 1:25:07 elaborate on your claims of "female totalitarianism" 1:35:32 some soyboy bs and then, do you think the way you talk about of free speech might risk politizing free speech and do you think that is justified 1:42:46 do our western values arise from the judeo-christian morality or from the enlightment era (kinda) 1:46:30 do you agree/disagree with niches critique of Christianity 1:50:17 how do you define what is considered religious? 1:54:30 so you and sam harris do not discuss the same thing? 1:56:24 what is the place of the religious in stories? 2:00:56 what's your view of institutional racism? 2:02:42 your critique of postmodernism is unfair 2:07:29 this guy is woke 2:10:42 how important do you think it is to debate the intellectuals who's quotebots you attacked on twitter (like zizek) 2:14:49 relationship advice 2:18:25 advice on how to become articulate 2:23:50 aleksandr solzhenitsyn is considered by some to be a kgb agent what do you say to that? how do you feel about the influence of psychedelics on our culture? 2:27:19 why do we call countries with totalitarian regimes socialists when the idea of socialism is worker control 2:29:27 on niche and truth 2:38:00 why should we say the truth? (kinda) 2:43:28 what is so powerful about ideologies that goes against our nature to be able to change (kinda can't hear this guy)

Been up all night watching hours of JP. Appreciative to be able to absorb this content for free.

I left this on when I fell asleep and Jordan was talking to be from a 1 man paddle boat emerging from underneath the bay bridge, and I handed him a stack of books to.hold for me while I tried to cross, he said he would hold onto them for me and I was wondering when I should pick them up. In real life my wife bumped into the bed when she was climbing in and it startled me and I yelled really loud and woke the baby up.

As a 16 year old male Adolescence from a working class background in Scotland, I have become enthralled by the knowledge of which Dr Peterson speaks on due to this I feel as though I am very quickly putting my goals and views at the forefront of my mind. I have been called conciseness ever since I started to conduct myself in a professional state of being in the last 1.5 years, I am and will be continuously working on improving my faults. Although i am clearly nowhere near understanding my self now nor when i really become an adult i have set out my plan for the future although I believe that one person can not prepare for what comes next in a realistic way, In a world where the goal of man is to deter from 'Chaos' as Dr Peterson has discussed it in great length. To conclude I discovered Dr Peterson From his first Siting with Ethan and Hila from H3H3 Podcast.

Jordan - the trick is to have a goal/s and then replace that goal/s only if something more valuable comes along. So work out what your values are and don't mistake your values for what you 'shine/project' them on, your values aren't people or destinations or things but can be discovered through them Have strategies, ways of achieving, rather than a rule, a singular way of doing that doesn't take into account the unfolding complexity of the future that you can't accurately predict. And ... enjoy the process, your path looking forwards is nothing like your future self ' s path looking back. Could you have predicted how you would have achieved being 16 at the age of 6? It had twists and turns, some evoked by you, some provoked on you, and you had capabilities of receiving and doing that got you there. Well done! At the age of 44 that's about the best I have worked out to date. I wish you well in your journey, it'll have highs and lows but it is always worth it.

Your problem seems to be financial. Finances is a simple game of money in and money out. Both of which you can change to a certain degree. I find most financial problems isn’t the money in, but is instead the money out. Pay off debts, and still work 70 hrs a week and you’d be rolling in money sooner than you think.

This was an absolute joy to behold, and I learned so much from it. The questions were fantastic and the overall atmosphere was just so beautiful. It was great to hear Dr. Peterson tackle those insightful questions without having a bunch of knobheads shouting down his every word if it didn't match what they wanted, and I also quite liked the respectful silences that followed some of his more humorous statements as they served to maintain the formal nature of the event. I will be coming back to this many more times in the future. Well done to the organisers, Dr. Peterson, the moderator, and all of the students for putting this together and holding it so well!
