literally the only thing that truly matters is having lots of children and voting out pro-immigration politicians

Lmao how can a penniless high school senior build capital? I have an index fund and a growing resume on github plus connections to some public figures but that’s about it

go to a good university and build connections

that's a good start

Thats what I plan to do. But I thought you meant right now

I’m trying to get into a T20 University

@Norik

My applocation is fantastic but I won’t share it because doxxing

Good on you TRC. I'm glad that a fellow high-schooler is in this server and has plans to make good of themselves. Generally we've hit the mark I think: be good people.

That's vague, but the essence of it is to essentially act with wise moral and political motivations.

Yeah

You’re not gonna save the world if you can’t even make a decent life for yourself

Peterson is exactly right about that

Indeed. I don't agree with Peterson on certain topics, but his self-help stuff is something I can agree to with a grain of salt.

Used to be the biggest fan boy of him though lol.

That was during my libertarian phase.

At the time, individualism and classical liberal values seemed to be the best response to progressivism and hard-left-wing ideology, because anything is better than a blatant libtard.

I'm still not cleansed or have washed off modernity, but I'm working to get there.

I never listened to him

Found him boring

He's a good gateway to mild right-wing ideas though. The problem is when people actually don't go further than him with the genesis of right-wing thought.

Now, someone like, say, Ben Shapiro, on the other hand, now there's a prick.

Peterson’s message is extremely valuable insofar as it argues for Christianity from a distinctly scientific and Darwinist perspective, which is nearly ubiquitous among young men in the postmodern west.

You’d have to be retarded not to understand the power and significance of that

Granted, he’s at best a stepping stone into the broader right-wing line of thought, rather than an end in himself

Although Peterson is an atheist

Eh

Well there’s an interesting discussion there

Of whether one can be a Christian in his actions

And whether that is sufficient for our ends

I’d rather live in a country of atheists acting out traditional Christian lives than a communist third world Christian country like Angola

Where their “Christianity” is just liberation theology anyway

You're either Christian or you are not.

Peterson is not.

I’ve seen several people claim that they became far right through Peterson

My issue is Peterson is his obsession with individualism, how he upholds it and rejects group identity, whether it be religious, ethnic, cultural, none of that matters because your ancestors don’t have *any* effect on your current actions

He legitimately said once that you should not celebrate what they did because *they did that*, you *didn’t*, which is preposterous

Peterson is pretty irrelevant at this point and always was overrated

Peterson is irrelevant, yeah.

I don't like Norik's pessimistic outlook. Also just looking at history the mutligenerational struggle idea is a joke
Grassroots doesn't work, especially if your group stops being a majority

Communists had this idea of the inevitability of communism which just ended up sedating them

I didn’t even see him as that big a thing

Anyone who might go through some sort of Peterson to Reactionary pipeline has probably already done so
