RE: Don't Eat Your Children

Thank you for introducing me to Dr. Jordan B. Peterson.

I just listened (mostly) to this entire lecture while working on a project...

This fellow is fascinating and brilliant, full of incredible insights. He's put his finger precisely on one set of irredeemably flawed ideas. The concept of "equality" that is presently in vogue, a set of ideas that is potentially phenomenally destructive.

What he still seems to be missing, however, is that these ideas are wielded and given power by the underlying and overarching flawed idea shared by the vast majority of sheeple. Namely, that the world needs a ruling class with the moral right to impose such nonsense on everyone at the point of a gun.

God help us all.

He's got it mostly correct. Not everyone can withstand the weight of responsibility that comes with true liberty. 'Ever vigilant' is an easy thing to say, but in practice, it is exhausting, especially when living in the world of the pod people.

Yuri Bezmenov is better at conveying the gravity of the situation, but it's terrifying to listen to him for any length of time, and then compare his claims with the progression of events in the real world. Jordan Peterson is more entertaining while imparting a large piece of the truth. It's even entertaining to listen while he discusses 'Gulag Archipelago'. For books described as a 2000 page scream, that is an accomplishment.
