what, 12 rules?

No. Starship troopers

I was always told the book was boring

I wanna at least watch the movie (somehow I've missed it) before I watch sargon's video

I kept putting it off under the assumption the video was never coming

Eh I don't think person is right I lack the philosophical training to fully elaborate why but what he says generally doesn't line up with my experience in life.

That video was fucking fantastic

I wanna get my own opinion

It was pretty good.

The video that is

That and he also a weird type of religious.

Like, philosophically religious instead of just "im a Christian"?

Yes

Its not that wierd its just most people are bad at elaborating on it. In my experience alot of converts think like Peterson to some extent about religion.

My grandparents for example when I started asking them about it.

Okay May be no then, I differ on what truth is. He has a religious outlook on what truth can be philosophically speaking.

Ah. Idk much about that. Havnt watched a peterson lecture in about half a year.

I seen every single lecture and any video he's bothered to record. 12 Rules for life will work but I don't think they will work for people who are not already trying to implement some form of them.Before they even read his book it only helps those people put them in order.

Peterson is a classic Christian Deist from the sound of it

He's definitely a deist but he doesn't think God is an entity in and of itself

Right, that's deism

Use it more as a metaphor for a guiding purpose

Collective unconcious more like

Boi you just say what I say only smarter! I will fite you

lol

basically, there's shit engrained into our moral compasses as humans that is as standard as having 5 fingers

Some people call that 'god'

On that basis I would absolutely have to disagree people's moral compasses are different between people

Not disagree with that you said I actually disagree with Peatrson view

No, that's the extra layering on top. Below even that surface there are things we have in common, but more like as relative symbology of our relation to our social group

The dominance heirarchy, if you will

Something interesting about Peterson

Yeah that's my point some people literally do not have that at all and will completely opt out of the dominance hierarchy

compare his bill c16 videos to now

he's got this almost tangible intensity to him now

he's lost weight and gained some definition in nearly everything he does. I'm certain he's got a personal tailor of some form or another to always keep him sharp.

And he's refined the fuck out of his speaking

@flyingfoxel But they're the odd ones out.

I think that's something unique to humans however that can't be overlooked. Our ability to abstract about our position within the heirarchy

if this sounds a little fanboyish, I know, but in the four-way chat between JBP, weinstein, shapiro and rubin

What you turn to a public speaker like that you pretty much have to otherwise people will destroy you say pretty harshly

the latter three were rather casual and off the cuff as they were

but whenever it turns to JBP (I listen to rubin audio-only usually) you can like, feel him thinking his thoughts
