I had to replay this multiple times because it was refreshingly insightful and precise.
I feel fortunate that ever since I was a toddler, my dad instilled into me critical and autonomous thinking, taught me to question/challenge anyone and anything--including myself--in search of the truth, and conditioned me to view people in "authority" or "leadership" as no different than me ("it's just a title") while simultaneously showing me the value of standing up for the truth even if everyone opposes you. From a young age, I was conditioned to have what it takes to stand alone if that's what it takes to not be a sheeple.
In my uni's Sociology class, when we did a miniature demonstration test of the Asch Conformity Experiment, I did not conform. I went against the grain and stood by my own judgments and perceptions.
The effects of operating with this manner of thinking ever since such an early age are incalculable, but completely efficacious. These values have permeated my core beliefs, and that has fashioned both my quality of life and my psyche in ways that result in feeling proud of myself and the person I have become.
I naturally love to write and have always been good at it, and I make time to journal, teach online via writing, and debate, on a regular/consistent (almost daily) basis; I can confirm that ALL of the things Jordan Peterson said here are highly accurate based on my own life experiences. When someone approaches me in person, I have often already given so much thought and research to the subject that I'm well equipped to share from memory because I have previously done a deep dive into the information and then written about it, analyzed it, dissected it, and thought deeply and critically on the topic. I have had a few uni professors that could not fucking stand me, simply because I challenged them and the materials they were teaching. It's sad, but so true, what Peterson said about there being a conspiracy for teachers to make students weaker than said teachers are.
When you have Te PolR so you carelessly spend all of your money cause it comes with suggestive Se so you enjoy all these status symbols and you also have Ni+ so you're hopelessly optimistic that it will all work out somehow. That comment is just about the people in the video, but it's of course a generational issue.

Final battle
Regardless of the man.... we do not have talent like this anymore.
compared to 1991 the population there have decreased ~110 000 -> 40 000
I like the Kazakhstan one, even though the European countries seem the most 'advanced'
such pretty architecture, and a vibe of 'older times'
they don't make enough Greek tragedy movies

mentally ill?
This talk seemed to cover a lot, so I'm not sure how much I will remember. It was interesting.
This touched my heart and made me cry. I'm glad he's spoken up this way about the struggles people are facing with this.
From an addiction-free homeless person's perspective, it's so easy to try so hard to distance myself from the stigma of addiction, that I forget addiction is just as much a disease/disorder as the depression, anxiety, and all the other disorders are. It becomes all too natural to defend oneself by forming an "I'm not like them" stance, which in my opinion is really just my own failure to stand up for those who struggle with addiction. Addicts truly are the most misunderstood and stigmatized amongst the disordered population. They need people to take the compassionate stance, and for those who can be understanding and compassionate to defend them when faced with stigmatization, to spread it in the form of mental health awareness. This video reminded me I need to repent of my own thoughtless stance I took when trying to defend my own self only, against the homeless stigmatization. I guess sometimes we all need those seemingly small, brief moments to remind us of our own humanity and compassion for those who are experiencing something we don't understand. Well, at least...I do...and I know I'm not such a unique and special snowflake that I'm the only human on earth who does.
Just journaling my thoughts/feelings in a public space for those it might resonate with and affect in a similar way to how it affected me.
a world of eaters.
The cringey clickbait is misleading, I clicked it because I saw a homeless person in the preview slide. The video is actually about poverty, the types of poverty there are, why poverty exists, where poor people are going wrong in life, and what kinds of things it takes to overcome it.
bullshit saying hi. That's exactly how they hunt baby seals in the ice.

BBC Merlin..next final series of Succession, and want to watch a show called Felicity. Merlin is very good, I've been trying to watch old King Arthur movies but you have to do a bit of digging and the quality isn't always very good, not up to my standards a lot of the time lol.
magic seems to be a metaphor for 'n' type ability in the show
