    Dr. Peterson recently traveled to the UK for a series of lectures at the highly esteemed Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. This was the first of said lectures.
    After some remarks on Cambridge’s beauty and rich history, Dr. Peterson examines the significance and history of clinical psychology. Drawing from the likes of Carl Rogers, Freud, Maslow, and Jung, this lecture investigates free speech, the value of structure, ways to approach mental illness, Jordan’s clinical experience, active listening, relationships, and the golden rule for conflict management.

    This man has dedicated his life to healing the pain and suffering of others. You get a sense of how much of a burden this is when he speaks. It's like he finds the thing that hurts you down to your soul, and then just floats it up in the air so it can be analyzed freely, and help the owner of that pain understand what's causing it. Why would anyone wish to silence someone like that with such a rare gift? Such a beautiful mind. Bless this man.

      I have many friends who I've discovered recently are quite ignorant, but even worse, refuse to listen or see evidence which may disprove their militant stance on said topics.
      It's so frustrating not being able to explain to friends why they are misinformed or wrong on subjects that matter.
      People who don't communicate are either fearful of what they perceive as failure, too proud to accept they may be wrong, or just brainwashed to a point of Narcassism.
      I dont want friends like this but feel a strong obligation to keep trying to help them see the light but then I am faced with the prospect of being labeled a pest. I hate knowing that people are misinformed and even fearful unnecessarily and making irrational choices simply coz I am failing to create a 2 way conversation I always insist they show me why they have their views but they insist they don't want to talk about it. There is the dilemma.
      Do we just give up on these types of people? I tend to think it's dangerous to do that.

      I do as well!
      The problem with the internet era is that we have so much speech from listening. If a person types into the void on twitter, you can't hear anyone listen back, even if people are. So people get louder and more extreme in their expressions to the point that they hyperbolize their speech into nonsense -- and then it is roundly mocked as if it is not worth listening to at all.
      So we have thousands of people walking around aggrieved because they perceive that nobody is listening to them.
      The solution? Free speech in living rooms and audiochats.

      I agree that having something that unifies people may be an overaching idea, yet whose idea will be the unifying one?
      Telling people what to believe may lead to more adversity.
      Yet, listening to another without wanting or needing to convince them of anything, including religious dogma and then simply showing a real intetest in the other person is a bridge of unification through being truly present with the other, in order for NEW ideas and solutions to arrive into the meeting between them, something that may not have existed before the meeting. A real meeting of hearts. Which takes some preparation.
      This way of meeting does not imply that anyone will be swayed to the other's opinion but that a Higher truth may become revealed through the meeting and the mutual desire to understand each other with openness of mind.
      No longer your idea against my idea but the result of the meeting of ideas, desires or hopes or ideals.
      This Higher ideal is not something that can be scripted, nor does it fall into categories like archetypes (if we have this that or the other archetype as a layer over the person we might miss seeing something about them that is not in that category) because it does not belong to the realm of preconceived ideas or concept about the perso , it belongs in the realm of possibility and surprise and hope, therefore a counsellor treads on a kind of holy ground, which is not religious but deeply spiritual, in the sense of the depth of valuing the meeting and what is happening in the present between the people meeting, clearing the lenses of preconceiveid categories, which might make the other feel confined to an archetypal character when in fact he or she may be sharing something deeply individual and intimate, the art of listening also includes the art of waiting for the Revelation about the other person's experience.
      Archetypes are helpful in understanding undercurrents of human behaviour . Yet, In some cases too many other archetypal layering may block the way to this kind of revelation, because the very skill of perceiving another through those lenses of for example archetypes can be a hindrance to seeing the person in the deepest sense of what they are able to reveal about themselves and to read the person as though all the information about that person is in the person themselves.

However, we rarely came to any agreement and he constantly strawmanned me. I'd go to great lengths to explain the principles behind my arguments but would be baffled by how he would characterize my position later on.

    I was raised in a religious cult, and everything Dr. Peterson says about twisting of words and suppression of dissent are fundamental techniques that cults use to spread and enforce their ideological principles, which are always weaponized as a tool for absolute control. It has been a tough psychological battle to find my way out of that forest, but Dr. Peterson's articulate mapping of these evil kinds of thinking has been tremendously helpful for liberating myself from my toxic upbringing. Thanks, Dr. Peterson.

      Maybe I should be more specific. I don't know the type of cult you came from.
      Though the most recognized cult leader of them all was the koolaid man.
      Jim Jones used to preach out of his garage in Palo Alto CA. Feinstein, Pelosi, Jerry Brown, Jane Fonda, Harvey Milk and Jim Jones all hang in Palo Alto where Jim Jones lived. "I was constructed in a garage in Palo Alto" - Hillary Clinton
      He was the founder of many of the lefts beliefs today. his video's are on youtube. He pushed for Equality, Social Justice, radical atheism and of course communism.
      His ideas of social justice he taught that we should view everything including objects as a color based on skin. Equality was taught to be equal those that oppressed you need to compensate you for the actions of their great grandparents. The wording he used was masterful and deceiving.
      Today I understand his line while drinking the koolaid and using the injections. he said, "This medicine will not work unless everyone takes it"

They believe that the Bible contains a perfect, whole, indisputable truth that interprets itself, and that it existed in perfect form in the original texts. In reality, this means that they think they hold an absolute, indisputable truth, and that the special privilege of knowing this means they are superior to everyone else, which leads to hem believing that they can justify all kinds of abusive behavior due to their inflated sense of importance. TL;DR: they think ends justify the means because they are chosen to spread the true "Word of God" and they justify their evil acts with this delusion. There are also multiple splinter groups as "Dr Wierwille" died in 1985, and almost immediately afterwards the cult fractured due to power grabs in the ensuing vacuum.

You can't evolve as an individual or even remotely consider yourself free without freedom of speech and thought. And that's merely the selfish way of looking at it.

      I'm fairly certain that the reason he doesn't repeat lectures is because his lectures aren't scripted. You are watching him actually think on his feet, live. Sure, he has a plan for what he wants to say, for his overall thesis, the important points he needs to make sure to cover to defend it, and the basic idea of how to get from claim A to claim B logically, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't plan it word for word. He just thinks it through as he goes.

      I didn't watch the GQ interview@@psychcowboy1, so I have no commentary on whether his point is contradictory or not (I have observed elsewhere that he does a lot of his logic reasoning verbally out loud as he is evaluating it, which absolutely could manifest contradicts & interruptions in competitive dialogue by virtue of how that thought process works, but alas I am missing context on his likely usage of this in your reference).
      Summarizing someone's argument isn't terribly hard, but summarizing it in a way that their main idea is effective & clear & without a spin or misinterpretation from one's own inherent biases is quite difficult & was the core of his point, which incidentally didn't seem to make it into your point.
      Because it's so hard to dissociate from our own preconceptions enough to objectively evaluate another's, a dynamic social structure with a wide diversity of contradicting values (i.e. significant difference in opinions) loses cohesion very quickly unless those preconceptions share common ground, the closer to one another the better. Or if the opinion with the most divergence/friction is held by an individual emotionally mature enough to let it go (or is otherwise oppressively censored enough to not disruptively manifest it), & validate the common ground shared by everyone else for social peace, this is the exception he alludes to a lot. It doesn't always have to come down to that, but it seems most people tend to skip the validation step, as I've done here.

    Dr. Peterson has been teaching his students this technique since way back as a university professor -- I remember it from the Personality Lecture Series, in the Phenomenology section. I'm really impressed by how he spun it into a preface for reiterating his "most controversial" public standpoint.
    This ensures that if you understand the technique itself as he explained it, which he tried his best to make sure that we all do, you really have to apply it before criticising his advocacy for free speech (in principle, before criticising anything that anyone says). If you CHOOSE NOT TO, you clearly expose yourself to the sheer ignorance of your counter argument, and likely to the ignorance of your perspective in other domains as well. If you DO CHOOSE to apply it, however, you either cannot provide a valid counter argument... or you have to come up with a seriously strong alternative. By strong, I mean practical and sustainable for multiple generations, at the very least. What a way to shut naysayers up without calling them naysayers.
    On the flip side, if you aren't even aware of the drama that arose from this topic, you can just simply apply it in your life to improve your communication with people in general. How can any sane person hate this man?

He’s leading us up to the highest divine truths that REFLECTIVE LISTENING, truly letting the other person to speak freely and then to let them to know we grasp what they’re saying by reflecting it back to them, that this can help bring about real peace and harmony. Thank you for sharing this from Jordan and God bless you.

      Man, not gonna lie, i have discovered this person last week and he is phenomenal. Surprisingly, when i played this video , he just described the base of my dealing to the other people. I thought there is no other way to discuss a problem. I know people will say that i lied, but i don't hassle to prove them wrong.

    Something I've recently learnt is to go into an argument with the aim of being proven wrong. Even if just one side adopts this technique, the truth of the core matter will most likely be revealed to both sides.

    • @austinstroud5501
      @austinstroud5501 2 роки тому +7

      Hi, that is something that I did for a while too. However, I found that on occasion this mindset would lead me to fold on my own position prematurely before it was fully and properly debunked by the second party. So instead of aiming to be proven wrong, I try to follow JP’s rule about assuming whoever I am talking to knows something that I don’t. The reason this works better for me is that it allows me to defend my stance properly by assuming that whoever I am talking to is intelligent enough to have formulated good reasons for having a different opinion than me and that they are worth taking seriously. However, I don’t start a conversation on the back-foot by already thinking my opinion is something that needs to be debunked. The end goal is the same, refining arguments until the core truth of the matter is articulated, but the process is different. It’s only a slight difference in mindset but it made a big difference to me.
