Sure, it's good on its own terms like that, but the Enlightenment theory of man is just empirically unfounded and therefore purely ideal.

2019-01-26 19:16:06 UTC  

Regarding the videogame point

2019-01-26 19:16:18 UTC  

And the nazis and communists also did

2019-01-26 19:16:27 UTC  

people fall into videogames or action movies due a lack of hard emotions

2019-01-26 19:16:37 UTC  

What is that theory @devpav

2019-01-26 19:16:45 UTC  

prolly a desbalance of hormonal action due to a lack of action in their life

2019-01-26 19:17:00 UTC  

that theory is supported by the fact that depression goes down during war

2019-01-26 19:17:05 UTC  

but increase hard after it

2019-01-26 19:17:22 UTC  

Lack of action perhaps @Strufa

2019-01-26 19:17:29 UTC  

so we need WW3

2019-01-26 19:17:38 UTC  

people search for adrenaline and fear in videogames or movies or sports

2019-01-26 19:17:52 UTC  

to compensate their miserable peaceful lives

2019-01-26 19:17:55 UTC  

If it’s against PC and SJW count me in @ThreeOfOne

2019-01-26 19:17:59 UTC  

i wouldnt know of that i live in hell

2019-01-26 19:18:01 UTC  

I always thought that it was people want goals. Life without goals flounders

2019-01-26 19:18:10 UTC  

fucking Venezuela

2019-01-26 19:18:16 UTC  

Peace sucks

2019-01-26 19:18:22 UTC  

That’s the message

2019-01-26 19:18:30 UTC  

people in peace say peace suck

2019-01-26 19:18:34 UTC  

people in war say war sucks

2019-01-26 19:18:35 UTC  

Mont, you know what I'm referring to if I say Homo economicus is a total caricature from the standpoint of human biology? The Enlightenment spawned that caricature.

2019-01-26 19:18:37 UTC  

everything sucks

2019-01-26 19:19:03 UTC  

Ah yes I’m studying economics I’ve heard of that @devpav

2019-01-26 19:19:26 UTC  

Anyway most human behavior can be explained from the evolutive viewpoint

2019-01-26 19:19:42 UTC  

soo yeah i keep my point that the mind is a concept that derivates from the brain

2019-01-26 19:19:42 UTC  

I know Tim Pool says college is bad but in my country it’s practically free gotta love taxpayer money

2019-01-26 19:19:48 UTC  

It's funny in a macabre sense, as civilization advances we get people who are intelligent enough to experience existential dread while stripping them of access to institutions that are supposed to help them discover that higher purpose in life

2019-01-26 19:20:09 UTC  

Well thats why millenials have become the pawn of the left

2019-01-26 19:20:21 UTC  

they want so hard to be heroes that they dont care who they aling with

2019-01-26 19:20:24 UTC  

thats dangerous tho

2019-01-26 19:20:34 UTC  

you know who else wanted to be a hero?

2019-01-26 19:20:40 UTC  

I'm also a goalless millennial, shit sucks

2019-01-26 19:20:41 UTC  

the kids from ww1

2019-01-26 19:20:46 UTC  

and no one talks about ww1

2019-01-26 19:21:35 UTC  

But @devpav the enlightenment indeed doesn’t explain everything and we’re still figuring out the world, but the ideas of the enlightenment do form somewhat of a basis to work from

2019-01-26 19:21:54 UTC  

I’m gen-z

2019-01-26 19:21:54 UTC  

even tho i disagree with Peterson in a lot i agree that purpose is what help us overcome existential dread

2019-01-26 19:21:58 UTC  

also Nihilism is cancer

2019-01-26 19:22:06 UTC  

I feel like Peterson's message is directed at the wrong people

2019-01-26 19:22:18 UTC  
2019-01-26 19:22:22 UTC  

if you cant overcome the fact we dont have a purpose you are a failure in the way of nature
