      What exactly is a "feminized" society? Don't blame me, a woman, because Canadians voted for a government that promised to change their diapers for them from cradle to grave and had so much fun sneering at me, an American, about how backward and selfish I was for seeing Obamacare for what it was: complete control over my life along with lousy healthcare and the theft of MY money. You voted for Fidel Castro's son, a creep who came straight out of the WTO propaganda machine, and now after his true colors have been shown, you sit back and blame the sex that is the only reason every species on earth survives. Because females may select for whatever they feel will best supplement their own significantly larger contribution to the next generation, but they rarely want the sperm donor hanging around after that itch has been scratched - and for good reason. Besides, the biggest parasite in any society is called a "union", and nobody can honestly deny that those tantrum throwing entitled thugs are the epitome of masculinity. I mean, I have to pay for 10 years worth of some nobody auto worker's Viagra every time I buy a car.

    @taylorramos2992 5 років тому +21

    Am I missing something? On the one hand Jordan emphasizes that happiness is strongly tied to where we lie on the domanance higherarchy. But on the other hand he bemoanes how the younger generations are unhappy when they don’t realize how well we have it with running water, electricity, modern medicine etc. I feel like there is a conflict of ideas here. If it is becoming harder and harder to climb the dominance hierarchy because of growing inequality one would expect general happiness to go down. And since our relationship to the dominance hierarchy is deeply rooted back to ancient evolutionary times (as Peterson emphasizes) it seems silly to expect that recent technological advances in health and medicine would override such a deep and primordial need to feel like we are making progress in a dominance hierarchy. In analyzing this conflict of ideas I think it is somewhat hypocritical of Peterson to bemoan younger people’s frustration with society when he himself so clearly emphasizes the connection to serotonin and the dominance hierarchy.

    This has been floating in my head for awhile.
    If a human squared off against a lion with bare hands, it wouldn't even be close. It would would be ugly. Very very ugly. Even if you found the toughest strongest human in the world they'd end up looking like pulled pork. Same for other violent beasts like wolves or gorillas or hippos or bears or alligators.
    But we're not exactly living our lives in fear of those beasts, because our civilization has found ways to circumvent the clear physical advantage that powerful beasts have over humans. We use our brains, and our brains have created tools that keep those beasts at our mercy, if we haven't driven them to extinction.
    Isn't that the same thing as the post-modernists who circumvent the traditional dominance hierarchy? They're improvising despite their traditional physical and even moral inadequacies, and they're getting ahead in the short life that they have. It's annoying, but it's a naturally human thing to do, since our powerful brains are what set us apart from other weak animals that would be shredded to bits by almost any predator you can think of.

      thank you for this comment. my exact thought process. but i would like to add to your idea that, improvising in the sense that you're talking about has been THE tool for our evolution as humans. i would say, our hierarchy as beings is far more complex from other species. Males always found shortcuts around the hierarchy, creating new skills, something new. and this by itself will create its OWN hierarchies, which males can also climb.
      however, it all boils down to one main hierarchy: creativity.
      in life, the person that is on top of the game is always the innovative person, the person that finds new ways to go around the problem.
      this can be found in all fields, wether in music, politics, sports, which are all made up human hierarchies by themselves. you can find people climbing them up with better skills, but who is on top of it is always the innovators, the people who go beyond the norms.

    The main problem with what he often says is that he relies on naturalistic fallacy.
    I mean - we don't shit in our pants. Not if we don't have to. Why not? Our asshole is naturally in our pants.
    And when he says this about western culture: "In the west... the ideal person, the ideal man is the one who tells the truth... That's the 'conclusion' of the west."
    There is no way he is that naive.

      @seanhagan1435 4 роки тому

      Shashank Kumar You literally can’t be further from the truth. human intelligence was a positive feedback loop caused by sexual selection. Women used intelligence as a signal for good genes. Also your innate egalitarianism is a racist caricature of hunter-gatherers known as the noble savage. It is true that the hunter-gatherer tribes consist of about 130 to 150 people which would most likely be cousins, but even in those tribes men competed against other men For high status because women selected for the men who can provide more resources for their offspring which would make the offspring more likely to survive. And if your genetic lineage is on the line, murder doesn’t just get rid of a competitor you also acquire the competitors resources, so there would be a genetic incentive for it. Evolution would not favor A man Who wasted evolutionary currency raising another males offspring because they wouldn’t be his gene being transferred to the next generation. This would explain why most murders are committed by men against men Usually because of infidelity. And war along with cannibalism, rape, and infanticide existed throughout hominid Evolution. What these man we’re going to war with other tribes for was to illuminate the men and children and acquire the women. All of this is from the viewpoint of the genes, how could evolution select for “greater social cooperation” or group selection, if a gene arose within an individual that favored the group over that individual by definition would root itself out of the gene pool.

    • @aidilamani8197
      @aidilamani8197 3 роки тому +2

      What evidence do you have that all hunter gatherer societies have no hierarchies? In actual fact most tribes do have a ranking system, for example every tribe or every group they have their chief hunter, even in animals like lions. That’s usually the “messianic figure” or the “ideal” or the “hero archetype” that we are naturally drawn to assigning/associate people with (be it conscious or unconscious). But with modernisation the hierarchies may not be as classical as it used to be, it’s no longer the strongest male or the fittest male (although having these traits may help slightly especially in the time of war) , it has perhaps evolved to the most competent male or female in that particular group or community (e.g at your workplace or what ever industry you’re in) . Where does this natural affinity come from? Who knows? It’s deeply embedded in us even we may not be conscious of it. It could stem from evolution or really that’s how Being is and what “God” or the “Universe” set us for us to do to ensure the survival of all living creatures

    Jordan has a point, but I worry that he's really just becoming an apologist for the status quo. I've followed his work for about 18 years and I respect him a lot, but he knows darn well that the dominance hierarchy is not a flawless mechanism for selecting heroes. As JBP himself has noted in the past, "classical male structures," as Joe put it, are quite often corrupt as hell, and tyrannical, because skilled liars can easily rise to the top of them. Maybe even more easily than heroic people can. And lots and lots of people are experiencing that these days. Even if it's convenient to blame it on our political opponents, we're all feeling it. And we should remember that things like feminism and other left-wing ideologies didn't just appear out of nowhere. They emerged as reactions to the tyrannical aspects of our civilization, which are still very much alive today.
    No one is immune to corruption, of course, and that includes feminists & lefties as well as conservatives. It includes anyone with a vested interest in any particular outcome. He says it himself, communists and nazis are equally bad. So, no matter your politics, the moment we start #resisting and opposing things, all human beings tend to get caught up in fighting the good fight and the truth gets lost in the battle. We focus so much on our enemies that we forget to be self-critical & self-reflective, and we forget that our enemies are also human.
    JBP teaches that it's important to listen to our enemies. And yet ever since he went "viral" he's been so caught up in calling out post-modern neo-marxist feminists on their corruption, that he's glossing over staggering levels of BS in the social system they're resisting--the one he is defending, whether he's aware of it or not. And of course, most of the lefties think he's the devil incarnate, and everyone's at each other's throats while the world burns. Indeed, the first casualty of any war, even a culture war, is the truth.
    And so now here we stand at the precipice of total social collapse. No one can tell what's real, because we're drowning in bullshit; and if you think you know what's real these days with any kind of certainty, then I can almost guarantee that you're fooling yourself. None of it's going to end until we all learn to stop and take a good long look in the mirror, and consider what our opponents have to say. And this applies most of all to those of us who are intelligent, well-spoken, and in the public eye.

    I understand the biological need and function of it, but I have seen its inneficiency - people use hierarchies to fight for their positions (just using power, not merit or competence), they have a big advantage in terms of quick judgements (their position works as a stronger argument than their actual competence) and they give way to a whole new class of people that just spend work in creating the illusion of their position hierarchy or just can produce their position in a hierarchy as a reason why they are right, instead of an actual argument or any valid insight.
    I've been on both sides of these tricks (both unjustly benefited from my position and had trouble because of it not being sufficient, despite being right at the time), but I am not sure that dominance hierarchies are the best thing that we as a species should use in the long term. I understand the need to differentiate strategic and tactical personel, but overall I would hope to see them evolve into something better - so I do look at them as a partially vestigial thing

    Two things I would enjoy clarification on: First, you say at the end that the hero "finds and claims the virgin," which implies something other than choice on the part of the human female. Second, there's a classroom lecture where you say that you've long thought on why nature is depicted as female, i.e. "mother nature", and you said you believe it's because "nature selects", but here you say female chimps don't select their mates. (I guess you could say though that women aren't actually choosing, it's more like they're programmed to find certain male traits desirable, which traits are themselves programmed by our biology through natural selection, so in the end, nature selects. Which I guess is a third thing I would like clarification on, since you say here that natural selection and sexual selection are two distinctly important parts of evolution, when it seems, as I explained, that they're the same thing.) Whenever you can get back to me would be great. Thanks Jordan. Your friend, Marc B.

    The male dominance hierarchy is also the moral matriarchy. Polygamy/polyamory leads to having more mothers and fewer fathers in common descent. Because biologically one male can reproduce with several females far more than one female with several males (polyandry). In polygamous species male-male competition and female sexual selection is more intense. Two offspring or zero offspring. In the Freudian primal horde, the jealously of the frustrated/exiled/castrated males for their mother/sisters is what gives them collective consciousness to murder, castrate and eat the tyrannical father. As Kronos did to Uranus, after Uranus hid the titans in the underworld but Kronos was protected inside the earth mother Gaia.
    In classic psychoanalytic theory the outcome of the Oedipal identification struggle leads to latency. Sexual passions are cooled as gender roles are taken on from the opposite parent and same-sex social bonding takes place. The ice age of ontogenesis. During the ice age Pleistocene, the transition to hunting primate being completed. Male cooperation on hunts for meat. The symbolic role of the father becoming individual moral authority for the group. To prevent aggression and incest which formerly was prevented by the actual existence of the father. Feelings of guilt from the deed repeated in sacrifice sanctioned by the group.
    For Freud, the male hero is the one who resisted the urge of his fellow men to urinate on fire and brought it back to the community, females. He slayed the serpent; Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to man in a hollow tube. The individual learns to renounce desire, sublimate genital pleasure, to make it into something productive for others. Opening the way to civilization where the economic patriarchy matches with the moral patriarchy.

    I agree with JP on his facts and I think he brings up useful points to be considered when trying to create a picture of how humans should behave in a society and how we got here from our ancestors. His knowledge in this matter is incredibly valuable to our understanding in this regard. Where I disagree is on some of his conclusions, specifically I think he puts too much emphasis on characteristics brought about by the "animal" parts of our brain, while underplaying human's unique prefrontal cortex and how that is the actual reason humans have achieved success.
    Lobsters didn't build skyscrapers. Chimps didn't discover atomic structure. Humans are fundamentally different from most other creatures due to our ability to understand cause and effect to a more granular degree than other species. It allows us to store knowledge and devise methods of recalling it. Language started our rise, writing made it exponential, and creating greater access to writing made us unstoppable. The balance between the "animal" parts of our brain and the "logic" parts of our brain, how different factors can influence that balance, and how we can knowingly and unknowingly leverage one against the other is more important to look at than purely the lower parts by themselves.

    He had me hooked right up till he said "sneaky allies" right at the end. The idea that a man who is pro feminist cant compete in traditional hierarchy any other way so they choose to side with women is a bit of a stretch isnt it? Dismissing men who side with feminism as effectively just trying to become a better choice for mating is a little unrealistic.

      Was that a generalization tho? Certain males take the feminist position for the sole purpose of increasing their chance to mate.

      Funny thing is I never really heard of the guy except MGTOW vids and feminist complaints...I'm neither so never saw more than snipets for either sides argument. Guy's a genius and has a lot of good stuff in his talks. Can't believe some think it's hate speech or dangerous. Only thing I see as dangerous is the silencing of such speech but welcome to 2020.

      @vetteluvnh 7 років тому +23

      Be Ing, but the genders are not equal. Striving to make women physically equal to men is a futile endeavor. Likewise, trying to make men as instinctively nurturing as women is also an exercise in futility. We've evolved like the sexes of almost all other mammals in nature, and that's to be complimentary, not equal.

      to extend while acknowledging your truth the object is balance; do you deny wage equity for the same job? you can always look to the differences but they are much smaller than the similiarilites; we share much is common!

    I recently worked with a guy who watches a lot of Peterson and it was so annoying. He was trying to dominate me, on matters that he didn’t know what he was talking about. I’m not so sure about this dominance hierarchy, I think there is much more to it. And I don’t think women are quite so simple as to simply and only choose the man higher in the hierarchy. Because i am single, no gf, no kids, and yet when I’m at work telling people what to do it sure seems like I am the dominant one yet everybody that works for me is married with children. So I am not saying Peterson is wrong I’m just saying I believe there is more to it.

      Just being someone's superior in a working environment isn't dominant. Your employees exercise their own self-authority and make the choice to be there and do there work. And it's solely because they're getting paid. They made a contract to exchange labour and/or knowledge for money and they're fulfilling that contract in service of their own interests. None of them are doing things because you've dominated them.

    Hierarchy is not actually not older than trees. It’s older than secondary growth, which is characteristic of many modern trees.

    But animals also bargain with the future. For example superstition has been shown in animals like Pigeons, fair play and trade in Chimps and Rats etc. So I think it's wrong to say we were Chimps then learned about the future and to bargain with it. I think that's inherent in animals too. They are also self aware. Oh and we've been using drugs since before we were homo sapiens most likely. Far longer than 125000 years. There are species of primate with common ancestors to us that use drugs like Lemurs using cyanide secretions from Caterpillars. Reindeer also use psychadelic mushrooms.
    Chimps do choose mates aswell. Just not necessarily hierarchical choice like humans.
