The Perilous State of the University: Jonathan Haidt & Jordan B Peterson

I recently traveled to New York University to talk with Dr. Jonathan Haidt about, among other things, disgust, purity, fear and belief; the perilous state of the modern university; and his work with Heterodox Academy (heterodoxacademy.org/) an organization designed to draw attention to the lack of diversity of political belief in the humanities and the social sciences.
Dr. Haidt is Professor of Ethical Leadership at New York University's Stern School of Business and a social psychologist. He studies the psychology of morality and the moral emotions. He has been described as a top global thinker by both Foreign Policy and Prospect magazines. Dr. Haidt is the author of three books:
The newest is The Coddling of the American Mind: How Bad Ideas and Good Intentions are Setting up a Generation for Failure
(amzn.to/2AN87a6).
The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion
(amzn.to/2yOOQnU)
The Happiness Hypothesis: Finding Modern Truth in Ancient Wisdom
(amzn.to/2hJ0TzT)
His writings on diversity viewpoint for the Heterodox Academy are at

Criticism is the method under which we both clarify and simultaneously fortify our ideals and by extension, ourselves. Without criticism..... we die.... Your professor should be immediately and unconditionally removed from their position and never allowed to teach again unless they can prove that they value education over indoctrination.

    *Personal Notes* [11:24] Correlation of Disgust with Progressivism vs Conservatism [14:07] Purity & Sacred Symbols [14:58] Exploratory Behaviour of Children / Mother as Reference for Center of the World [15:56] Campus turns into a sacret safe space [18:53] Political Core Issue: Openness and Borders JP: «The conservatives want the borders between categories to remain intact no matter what level of analysis. From Abstract levels of analysis to the actual physical borders of rooms, towns, states, countries. They're like "the borders should be thicker."» From a study: «What they found was, the higher the prevalence of infectious disease, the higher the probability of bottom-up authoritarian political attitudes.» On the on hand Hitler's basic metaphor was that the Aryan race and country was a pure body and that it was assaulted by parasites, on the other hand, when the Europeans showed up and shook hands with the Native Americans, 95% of the latter died within 50 years. As another example: the European expansion produced a tremendous interachange of ideas from all around the world - that's globalization - but as Europeans started to move around the world they brought back rats and the black death wiped out somewhere between 30-60% of the population at the same time. [21:50] *The Omnivore's Dilemma* «That border issue is what separates conservatives from liberals. The conservatives say, the novel is potentially contaminated. (It's not so much that it's dangerous, that's different, that'd be fear). And the liberals say, hold on a minute, if you make the borders to thick, then informaiton can't pass through.» *A behavioral Immune System* «We have the same attitude towards abstract information, so we can think of an invading idea, or a polluting or contaminating idea.» [23:46] «So wouldn't it be good, if in every society or every organization we had - some people who specialized in saying "hey, what are the opportunities" and - some people who specialized in saying "well, what are the risks?". It just so happens that a lot of people having trouble doing that all in themselves.» «There are people with - different personalities, - different motives - and different goals. Yeah, we could have a discussion between them, that'd lead to far better results. It's for that precise reason at least, that free speech has fundamental value.» «The liberals start businesses, but they can't run them. And the conservatives can run them, but they can't continue to transform and expand them. ...yin and yang.» [25:01] *What happened in Nazi Germany* «If you're afraid of something, then you'll run away from it or freeze. But if something disgusts you, then you'll try to burn it or kill it, atleast get it away.» Hitler - first fought tuberculosis, - then demanded factory owners to get rid of rats and mice and insects with Zyklon-A, - then he used a variation of that gas and attempted to "clean up the asylums". You can see how the categorization of impurity (or contamination) escalated: - first it was public health, - then social cleanliness, - then he went into the asylums. [27:19] *Disgust and Moral Elevation* Disgust is a reaction to things that seem to be degrading, metaphorically mostly referred to by a vertical scheme. [31:16] *It's really useful to understand that there are actual reasons why people see the world differently.* ...And that you can't easily say that one is right and tha other is wrong: The liberals are correct when it comes to borders (as in:) - if you thicken them too much and thus diminish the information flow, you risk making the society so static that any radical environmental transformation will sink it (...that's actually the case!). But the conservatives are right in that - you pay a big price for new information under the general risk of exposure to contamination, even contaminating ideas. *Fundamental Truths about Reality / Life* «The environment metaphorically moves back and forth like a snake, and what we are trying to do is stay on the center of it's back! And the only way we can do that is by - having people pull to the right and say "be careful!" and - having people pull to the left and say "well yeah, but be open!". And maybe with that dialog and the exchange of information which that dialog promotes, we can specify the current center of that moving goal and actually stay on the back.» [32:33] *Emergence of Briliance and Truth* We are ultra-social, tribal apes with animistic religions. As individuals we're really kind of stupid creatures, designed to do post hoc reasoning. But if you put us together in the right way with the right checks and systems, the whole can vastly smarter than the components. (which is true of the brain as well.) As individuals, we are really bad at disconfirming our own ideas. Only if you put ideas out there and everyone else is motivated to challenge them, the truth comes out. [34:20] *No Conservatives in the Academics Anymore* In the 60s/70s one of the main reasons to go to grad school in the social sciences is either a) to stay in the school to escape the Vietnam War draft or b) to fight for social justice and against racism The ratio of liberals to conservatives changed because of - self-selection - hostile climate/discrimination put forth against unwanted political opinions [40:19] *Nihilism and the consequence of scientific ideas to religious fundaments of human society* «When you throw out a sophisticated religious structure, an unsophisticated religious structure will fill the gap.» Fundamentalists in the sciences are contributing vastly to the current cultural problem. [52:23] *The Desastrous Consequence of Viewing Speech as Violence* - There used to be a difference between 1) a member of a minority group feeling offended by someone sincerely expressing an idea and 2) this member being viewed as victim of violence and that the situation thus demands immediate protective action by law [57:42] *Traditionally you can put forth any idea you want, if you can back it up with facts.* Due to excessive politicization of the educational agenda, - students learn rhetorical techniques instead, with - the goal of linking their enemies to something contemptable or disgusting and - to provoke a detrimental social outrage targeted against them. [58:05] *The Political Immune System Analogy* Once you're labeled as a racist, it doesn't matter what you actually say, you will now be attacked. Also, once you're labeled that way, if someone defends you, the label is contagious, right? ...Like in a religious witch-hunt. That's why there's so much cowardice on campus, even if the majority thinks that what's going on is nuts. [01:13:11] *Overprotection related Depression and Anxiety* 1) Fewer siblings -> Lack of - unsupervised rough-and-tumble free play - playful fight for position in hierachy - ability to deal with conflict As a consequence more adults - assume there has to always be a supervisor to call when there is any type of conflict - become unable to deal with problems themselves 2) Lack of Fantasy / Identity Play might manifest itself in form of - cultural gender-flexibility issue and gender debates 3) Social Plattforms - the social prevalence of (and early access to) interactive media platforms hugely loads young people, especially girls, with anxiety under the social need for approval and amplifies social relational phenonea like reputation savaging during femal hieracical disputes 4) Rise of Polarization - mob phenomena: minor public deviation from implicit expectations can attract unlooked-for and individually unforeseen social damage of catastrophic, even career-ending magnitude [01:23:23] «Give everyone a place which is safe. And by safe I mean physically safe. _Never_ use the word safety to describe emotions and ideas. Safety means physical safety.» [01:24:36] *Inclusion as a Primary Virtue is a Vice* «There is in-group preference (which to eliminate would be foolish). And to distinguish that from out-group exclusion is not easy at all.» «Any virtue carried to extremes becomes a vice.» - Aristotle [01:28:35] *Optimistic Perspective* «We actually think that by just doing academics, that is: - research, makeing arguments, being calm and civil that we can turn this around.» [01:30:46] *The Corrective Mechanisms* Duty to the Truth - never say things that you think are false - never hesitate to display your scientific opinion under fear for it to get challenged Educate your Students and - do not indoctrinate them or use/(abuse) them as tools for your political agenda *Optimistic Conclusion:* If universities make their statements and goals public, students will thus flood the universities that hold the morally highest principles.

    I would argue there's never been a better time to re-colonize the Academy. These people are weak, their minds are fragile. A rush and a push, and the universities will be ours. I went back to school (a Big Ten university) and I feel like I'm surrounded by subpar thinkers. These people are so distracted and shattered, and addicted to their screens. I'm quite serious when I say we should all enroll en masse right now, and try to sweep all the trash away. The timing is perfect.

    Using any single disease as the "case in point" to back up your statement is foolish. One could and should argue that the rate of infectious diseases in the US is markedly lower than 95% of the rest of the world. You have to look at ALL infectious diseases within a given society and THEN make the determination, not just 1 disease, that would be a unidimensional study... which is quite literally the opposite of the correct way to study variables. I get your point, but it's a pretty shallow way to interpret the statement made in the quote you cited.

    Yeah isn't that a hydrogen bomb of a realization? I realized the other day... The far-right, tyrannical father, is a constant thirst for order, which is represented by an unending pointing-at toward the current 'pest' (the thirst of which is what gives the person in that state of mind the feeling of disorder; the person, in this example, simply can't live without a pest to exterminate), whereas the far-left, tyrannical mother, is a constant allowance of everything matched with the refusal to recognize the presence of a problem for the sake of maintaining the thought that everything is ok (utopia). The biggest problem with the latter is the fact that, in order to maintain the thought across a large group of people that everything is ok (despite the obvious knowledge of the presence of a problem), those people who refuse to give up their thought of utopia must get rid of the ones who speak up and tell the truth about the problem at hand and the fact that the utopia is a farce, thus in turn creating the ones toward whom they can point with their 'pure' fingers. I recognize the far-right example with Hitler's regime, and the far-left with Stalin's. But I also recognize the far-left example as what we see happening now in current-day America; the popular SJW-type mode of thought is the representation of 'utopia', and anyone who speaks or acts otherwise is attempted to be thrown out of the entire game. I see that this is why both examples lead to the same thing, besides the unfortunately crystal-clear evidence we have of this in the 20th century. (I'm still working on my definition of the far-left example, but I think you get the point)

Maybe the sjws are viewed as lunatics in the Netherlands, but I'm on a university in northrine Westphalia and unfortunately there really some people that see them as virtuous and want them to succeed in political university student parties. We even had some talks about white privilege and the horrors of German colonialism on our campus, which where directly reflected on Germans today. They even advised germans to go there because "they lack the understanding of white privilege". I don't know what to make of this.

You can actually see and hear the points in the video where he abridged his very open, tangential mind and segued into asking more questions to Jonathan Haidt. He also said in a couple podcasts that he has been on that he knows that is one of his character faults. It's refreshing to know he is actually reading the feedback he is getting on his videos.

For an insult to have bite it has to in some way be applicable. Given nothing in this limited exchange could grant any insight on that label, it means nothing. However I do find it telling when people resort to random insults. It's a very interesting thing, to see where their brain goes as it will likely go towards something they detest, about themselves at least.

    Sidechaining is when the presence of one vocal track reduces the volume of another audio playing at the same time. When a kick hits in a dubstep song, it's usually sidechained to the melody so that the instant the kick hits, the melody reduces in volume and comes back to normal when the kick stops hitting (depending on the release time of the sidechain compressor).-

    It seems a lot of people have a problem with Haidt identifying fundamentalism as a problem. I think these people have forgotten that fundamentalism as a word existed before it had a negative association with particular groups. Anyone can be a fundamentalist, whether in religion, politics, economics, civics etc. The basic idea with a fundamentalist is they lack complexity and over simplify things to unrealistic "fundamentals." So it is similar to being an ideologue.

    Personally I just quibble with the definition of 'fundamentalist' here and think Haidt might be better off finding another word. Because there's nowhere near consensus that the word implies over-simplification etc -- as a word it just suggests someone who's gone back to the 'fundamental' building blocks of some system of thinking, and is taking care to get those fundamentals in order and rebuild their complex system based on well-ordered fundamentals rather than disordered fundamentals. At least that's what I take from the word. So if there's so much disagreement about this definition (since it's fair that you don't share mine) I think for practical purposes he should just find a different one (or at least define his *very precisely* before every occasion of using it).

Fundamentals as a concept are essential, as well, particularly among people who are more conscientious. For instance when you say "Using fundamental as a synonym for basic as in "back to basics" as though it is a building block upon which ideas or knowledge should start is simply not correct." That's not correct, because that is the precise definition of "fundamentals" in terms of games and sports, where you first have to learn how to stand/hold your racket/club properly/Practice good balance, etc. before you can go on to learning more advanced facets of your particular arena of competition. So "fundamental" in the strictly academic sense might not mean exactly that, but in practical usage of the word that is the accepted definition.

    I agree he needs a better word. Like “evolution” it has several meanings. He equated fundamentalists Christians as necessarily being young Earth creationist which is not always the case. I consider myself a fundamentalist Christian and I have a science background and believe the Earth is 4.5 billion years old.

    I graduated from a film program, and a huge percentage of my friends on Facebook are now very left leaning. I frequently post Jordan Peterson/Classical Liberal/Libertarian opinions on Facebook in a totally respectful manner and I never get any pushback over it. Most people just accept far left opinions, but aren't really into arguing over them because they don't actually understand the reasons for the opinions. I just hope that when I post these things, that they'll plant a seed in people's brains of a differing opinion, backed with reasons, and eventually it'll change people's minds, because I try my hardest to post my opinions in a non-confrontational way. The best way to have someone reject your opinion is if you make it confrontational. As soon as it becomes an argument and not a conversation, people need to win, not learn.

I mean, they just want noncommittally to advocate a position that's killed 100MM in the 20th Century, so why do you have to harsh their buzz?

    I think disgust is nothing but a very strong rejection of the other. The human mind finds always something awful in the other tribe: pigmeet, parasites... If it does not find anything, it makes things up. All ihese aspects are not the reason for rejection, they are only the alibi, the most impressive argument, the most humilating aspect against a hated opponent or enemy. As more enemy, the more disgust., the more radical the alibis of rejection. The deepest reasons for rejecting is the different temperament, the different character, left and right, Kain and Abel.

    What a pleasure to hear Dr. Peterson talking to someone at his level. It’s so rare that anyone comes close. That made this video a true joy to listen to despite the gravity of the topic. I feel slightly more optimistic hearing some of Dr. Haitd’s ideas for solutions and also that there are some initiatives already underway with results that are looking positive thus far. I’m late in viewing this. At the time of this writing, this video is over a year old, so I’m going to take a look to see if there’s an update. If there isn’t, I’d like to suggest this exercise be repeated at least once a year to give us an update on how both feel things are going in the universities. I’d be very interested to hear thoughts on how things appear to be trending.

I really think Haidt was right, back in 2015 we still had a chance to correct things by addressing what waa going on on college campuses before those kids graduated and brought it to the 'real' world. He was just wrong for being optimistic about that happening and now its too little too late. Headed for bad times no doubt, i don't know how any reasonable person could still have any optimism about the current state of things.

    THANK YOU Dr. Peterson for posting this. I am a social worker in Central Oregon and I am VERY concerned about the future of my alma mater. I provide field instruction for students interning at sites that do not have social workers on staff. In the past few years, I have had more and more students telling me that they have been intimidated and no longer express their ideas freely. Last year, I had a student who reported that a student on campus referred to all white women as being untrustworthy, and used the pejorative term of all pejorative terms, and the instructor said nothing. This was a violation of the student handbook and frankly a violation of the social work code of ethics with respect to collegiality. I found myself so fearful of confronting this for fear of being shunned. What has helped me in the past year is the discovery of your work. Interestingly enough, it felt like blasphemy to be learning about you and many other people who have been banned from speaking on campuses. It turns out this is the healthiest thing I could have done. I just signed on for an advisory board and will turn from this video to the resources you and Dr. Haidt have referred to here. Again, thank you so very much!

    As a man finishing up his master's in education, I can assure you Petersen is absolutely correct. I can't tell you the number of times we've been extorted to be "change agents," and we all know what kind of "change" they are want to impose. I have been in two classes where White women burst out into tears when coming to terms with the same of their 'Whiteness." I can only imagine what they will be teaching White students, particularly boys, when they get out in the classroom. However, one of the things I find interesting that when I have confronted a professor about this directly, he will backpedal. For example, I would often ask what sort of "penance" I need to do as a White Man, he would respond that White or male privilege is not like that and quickly change the subject. I think at some level they recognize the religious nature of what they are teaching and feel ashamed of it.

    Andrew Stallard isn't exaggerating. I'm in a Master's in the social sciences (and a woman, by the way -- and so thankful to be a woman considering the evil abuse I've heard thrown at men in back rooms, and knowing what a concrete impact academics are INTENTIONALLY having against people who happen to be male, to counteract some supposed 'natural' privilege possessed by all white males) and it's tragic the number of women who've allowed themselves to be trained to feel hysterical about race and gender. There's nothing academic about it -- and it's horrifying to imagine these people going out there to try to 'school' others with their warped worldview. I honestly believe these people are deeply wounded and victim culture makes them and their mental fragilities so much worse off, whereas being empowered and required to conduct themselves as rational adults would enable them to recognize so many of the pressures they whine about as *literally nothing.* And they (and the rest of us) would be so much happier and mentally (and socially) healthy for it. The only thing that reassures me is knowing that while I'm sitting in the room listening to all of the "change agent" garbage (knowing exactly what they mean by it), I can also know that internally I'm taking notes and am not going with their program -- and I can have hope that other sane people are also recognizing this garbage for what it is, and intend to move forward in a sane way instead of garbage way themselves.

These two rank as high for me as Steven Pinker and Robert Wright. (Funny, I just now realized that all four are psychologists, psychologists that take evolutionary biology quite seriously.) Reading/listening to Peterson-in conjunction with Wright (The Evolution of God, Why Buddhism is True)-transformed my atheism into agnosticism; and reading/listening to Haidt-in conjunction with Pinker (The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature, The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined)-transformed my leftism into liberalism. Peterson's one of the wisest human beings that I've read/listened to, and Haidt's one of the most thoughtful human beings that I've read/listened to, so to hear these two talking-together-was quite a treat for me.

    A hypothesis: Maybe the connection between disgust and willpower has something to do with the willingness to confront and/or kill the thing which disgusts you. You can be disgusted by something and also fear it, a spider or snake for instance, and it takes willpower to overcome the fear in order to carry out the necessary reaction to the disgust. One might thereby elevate the value of willpower if his disgust is of great import to him.

    They mentioned this early on in the talk- fear makes you run, whereas disgust makes you want to destroy, or purify as with fire. In this sense, both galvanize the individual to a compulsive sort of action, but one drives you toward the object or situation of concern rather than away from it. Which is obviously a very interesting distinction.

    @joshualbatros @andy Brice Both insightful. To take both threads, will power beliefs are based on the notion that through effort of will an outcome can be achieved. That is, it is something you would expect in people high in personal responsibility measures. It is possible that since being orderly requires effort and continual maintenance. as well that an 'ordered state' is fundamentally transformed from a 'disordered one' and in its visual order confirms the result of ones will vis effort on the originally 'disordered' environment. (All environments tend towards disorder if not maintained or organized). That order reinforces willpower beliefs. Let us then suppose that all desires have answers and that no desire comes without its fulfilling complement. If we take it that we like order, it is pleasurable, and disorder greatly displeases us. We can believe our desire for order is justified. But given that it requires effort (and humans hate useless/ meaningless effort), it is impossible to justify effortfull organization of the world if we are not responsible for it (making it senseless or illegal for us to do it). Since responsibility is a matter of both attribution and position. For position, the leader is ALWAYS fundamentally more responsible than the subordinate as the leader has more power of effect. As well, for attribution In a far 'higher sense' the best way to enable the free fulfillment of the desire for orderliness is to prevent its obstruction by beliefs of non-responsibility. That is to prevent attributions which make it impossible or unreasonable for you to 'fix' the problem of disorder and delay your own wish fulfillment. Given all of this, the most maximally efficient belief (even when it is incorrect) if you want to fulfill your desire for order, is to believe staunchly in the power of will to overcome circumstance. This applies to both environmental challenges which are technical or mysterious in nature to political and social challenges where subordinate authority hierarchies determine control. If this is true, given the rational connection between 'control' and willpower, you would expect persons in leadership or high in expertise in general to be very high in willpower beliefs compared to non-leaders/ non-experts. assuming you control for IQ. As well, if given evidence above, 'ambitiousness' should be strongly related to general willpower beliefs whereas stability of willpower beliefs and frequency of application of said beliefs across time should be related to actual success.

    Peterson is so intellectually stimulated during this conversation and you can tell he's so intrigued. It's great to see him talking to someone of a similar intellectual stature.

    Excellent interview. I would like to see the 2021 update and where we are now from the perspective of both men. Did the University of Chicago approach take hold? I fear not, but would like to know.
