“Good People Must Not Be Silenced!”: Jordan Peterson’s Call to Leaders at ARC Forum
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- Dr Jordan Peterson: "What does it mean for a country to descend into the grip of the totalitarian nightmare? ...it means that every single person who is an inhabitant of that country has decided to hold their tongue when they've been called upon to say what should be said."
Speaking at ARC Forum, Jordan Peterson’s warning is that these catastrophes don’t just occur overnight, but that there is a journey towards them that is marked by silence.
“Good people have a burden on their conscience. The burden requires them to speak…And they refuse the call.”
We are at a turning point in our societies. The health of a society relies upon the responsibility and courage of its people. Jordan’s call is emphatic: “Speak the truth while you still can.”

very true. On a small scale, my husband & I found this to be true in our life. We rose against our local school board & fought for 2 years trying to wake the public up to the truth of their incompetence & corruption. We drew a line in the sand...if they didn't 'change' we would pull our kids from the district & homeschool them. This was a huge price to pay: we were social pariahs, ostracized, lambasted in our local media, etc...Our kids lost friends, the principal of their school outright shunned them, teachers were 'punished' for publicly siding with us, etc...we had to completely re-invent our lives to honor our 'line in the sand', in order to circumvent the evil we saw taking place. So, the price seemed steep! BUT, you are right in that the 'reward' that went with it FAR outweighed the 'price' or punishment. the people we were ostracized from were the VERY people we needed to get away from in order to live a decent life, according to our morals/standards. It totally removed those people from our sphere - they were toxic & many were not good people (as a matter of fact the principal of their school? Her son literally just strangled a woman to death yesterday. Glad I'm not associated with them anymore!) Our daughters love each other & love us. It brought us all closer together. they have had success in schooling, work, friendships, etc...And all the negative energy was gone. We gained things I can't even articulate and proved to ourselves that we had fortitude, courage, etc...And we have been able to guide others to the same destination. The whale spit us out onto dry land
Thank goodness!! Well done ❤❤❤❤
I'm so glad you did this. My children were influenced by the school system in the wrong way. I won't go into great detail.But it was definitely the wrong way and I totally admire you for standing up
Sorry to hear about what you went thru, but great is reward in Heaven too
Thank God for people like you who realize that if each of us doesn't stand for truth, we are all doomed. I respect you sooo much!
Thank you. The world needs your voice. It encourages others to find their own voice

A brave message from JP. He knows about paying the price for your ethics and moral stance. I hope many people heed his wisdom and stand up for freedom and righteousness. Difficult times are ahead.

Totalitarian nightmares happen for one reason - the majority of the public say/think "it can't happen here".
Totalitarianism is kept alive by the people who dare not tell the emperor that he is naked without clothes on, except for that little boy.
Well kinda but not really
We could just be asleep and stupid
But they call us the silent majority for a reason. We just let the people haired freaks become our voice.
Time to make a change. ASAP
It’s changing ❤

Thank you, professor Peterson. Inspiring as usual.
I never tire of hearing Dr. Peterson recount the story of Jonah 😍
I discovered Dr. P when he came out with 12 rules for life. I made my children listen to the audiobook. I have been hooked ever since. And I use his principles when I'm working with my patients 💯 👌
And hey Dr P if you happen to read this, listen: they can take your license. It doesn't matter. You have been doing exactly that which God has called you forward to do. You have a global audience. You don't need that fancy piece of paper anymore. You are still "Doctor" and you are changing lives with each person who reads your books and listens your lectures. KEEP GOING. Screw the establishment shills who try to cancel you. They mean nothing at the end of the day. What matters is that you are true to your internal moral compass 👌💯🙏💛
I love you, Brother Peterson! Let's inspire to be a people with courage, at the end of all things. As we wait upon Him. Your jacket Rocks.
Thank god for this voice of reason.
The Truth will set you free!
Like Israel committing mass murder and systematically ignoring international law
Saying the truth does quite the opposite in the UK.
It will also get you blocked by Peterson...he doesn't like uncomfortable truths, like all charlatans.
@@anaglyphx he's not a charlatan, he's just woefully wrong on certain topics
@@Io-Io-Io A charlatan is a witch-doctor who cons stupid people out of their money...look real careful at what he is doing
Thank you Dr JP! Our values will not be silenced, we all need to speak the truth. I believe in the truth and I will tell it regardless of the consequences because we all are going to perish anyway.
I don't think we've been told the truth for a very very long time.
Yep
I’ve been going back and researching history because of homeschooling- mind boggling 😂❤
I live in Australia. In my country there is an apathy and the "she'll be right" attitude that makes it hard for those of us trying to speak out.
I have decided recently to have the courage to speak. I'm glad I have spoken out because I was surprised when most people have enjoyed the debate or they agree with me.
I will live with truth rather than be silent! It will take courage but the price paid if I don't do it is my self respect and the knowledge that, by remaining silent, it's seen as agreement.
I've watched as others have stayed silent and watched as those people are bulldozed over and sacrifice not only themselves but the next generations. My conscience won't allow me to stay silent.
Thank you for your inspiration Dr Peterson.
I'm in Newcastle NSW and agree totally
Well I'm from Australia and I want Australia to become Anglo again and I'm not afraid to say it no matter the cost.
same here from oz
That is part of the whole problem here too.....too many empty vessels...so many.....thankfully Jordan Peterson is not one of them....he pays a price for it though he practices what he preaches concerning his 'problems'. In other words he's a 'man' in every sense of the word.

@johnsmith-vk6sf hey John, I'm white and Australian don't think race or immigration is the problem it's the way it's managed Australia's big and in a utopian view we could provide and prosper and sustain prosperity, but greed,stupidity,lack of generative planning and a non attendance of care for fellow human beings is hindering some true growth
I LOVE what Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and others are doing here with ARC. I choose this over what Marxists at Davos Switzerland are proposing.
Those guys are in the belly of the whale by choice and they like it there.

No one can analyze a biblical story with the comprehensiveness, the applicability to the average citizen, the dashes of humour, (I could go on and on...) like JP.
Sparkling orator, proud he is Canadian in a time when Canada itself is hardly recognizable as any kind of democracy.
That will change as we right our ship!

Amazing Dr. Peterson. Inspirational, as usual!
I’ve been listening to Dr. Peterson since around 2017
The energy and gravity of this message reminds me of the talk he gave to Harvard students in roughly 2018, in which he gave the iconic lines of, “You are baby ruling class!” and “Pick up your damn cross, AND BEAR IT!!”
Top tier level energy, after all of these years, and after everything 🙏🙏
Thank you Dr. Peterson for your inspiring and edifying words! 🙏💪🙏
JP, is so inspirational he gives me hope and courage. I have spoken up for last 50 years and been deeply discouraged. He gives me strength and faith that we will turn the current evil into good. Love Peace and Joy to all humanity 🙏
This man is a legend in my eyes.
Mr. Jordan Peterson has a spirit of God upon him. May we all accept the Holy Spirit and speak with courage and truth for a better world. May we humans be worthy of the image of God in which we're all made. God wills it.
The spirit of God lives within you and every single human being. Jordan is showing you the path to walk, you should have the courage to follow that path and open the door to change within you and your immediate environment.. you need to look within using mind which God gave to everyone affluently. Start with Love and everything will follow.

Thank you Dr. Peterson and the ARC
I've been following JP for many years now, and listened to many hours of his presentations, right from the time he was fighting compelled speech laws in Canada.....but this....this is one of his most brilliant presentations. I am one of those that is terrified of speaking my mind because of the potential catastrophes that will follow. Maybe its time to be different.
a moment, a glimpse, of sensing true freedom...let's keep building reality. Thank you Jordan Peterson for being you.
Amen JP, THANK YOU.
Bravo, sir. I watch you answer the call, and man.. It's a beautiful thing to see. You inspire me.
Love it. Absolutely brilliant. So true. Peterson has the rare ability to be a universal preacher. That derives from his grasp of universal truths, his conviction about which he learned through practice. Any house of worship would do their congregations a favour by playing them this talk instead of a sermon. Faith begins in action. And any town hall or parliament could start their meeting off with this pep talk.
I’ve been physically ill for a few weeks, and it’s occupied my mind with lower order thoughts because I’ve not had the capacity to think about deep things. This can mark my return to the ascent - I suppose repentance for indulging in sin which I felt too down trodden to ward off.
Praying that your acceptance can be met with believing God will give you sanity, and a willingness to say what you need to say.
Jesus loves you and is waiting with open arms ❤❤
Keep up the good work. I need to hear these voices of truth and common sense and power.
I love Dr. Peterson's dress attire. Only He could do this.
What do I think of the UK's Labour Government? Well, we mustn't complain, eh!

you could try supporting and protecting Tommy Robinson - the working class businessman who greatly impressed the Oxford Union, brought down the grooming gangs and wrote a book on the content of the Koran to expose their doctrines from what they are.

Yes, True just like JP did not dare to tell the truth to benjamen natnyahu war criminal and tweeted to give "them hell"... do not get me wrong, I do follow JP and listen to him...only it is hard to see someone preaching so much to stand up for the truth, failing to the best chance he was given to show that he has what it takes to follow his own advice!
@invoker969 Thank you for your response. I have given it some thought. I digress.
The truth is Hamas started the October 7th attack and killed over a thousand people, and not all were soldiers, and not all were Israeli. They held / hold hostages, still. They killed / kill the hostages, still. Hamas committed atrocities in their initial attack, too, in the first place. This was and is war, declared or not. Israel has every right to respond.
Maybe Netanyahu does have war criminal tendency. However, in this round of war, he was only acting in response. WW2 war criminals such as Hitler or Tojo needed no responses or even genuine excuses. They just attacked first.
One may argue his response also ended up killing Gaza civilians, including women and children, who are innocent. Yes, war is harsh, destructive, and best to be avoided. Deaths of civilians are always sad. But are they really innocent? They elected Hamas. They are part of the Hamas war machine. Hamas built tunnels underneath civilian neighborhoods. Just like the WW2 Nazi Germans who housed civilians next to military targets. I won't say the civilians of WW2 Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, and Fascist Italy were innocent.
One may also argue that Israeli responses have been too disproportionate, militarily speaking. Perhaps. But I don't know enough to judge. But then one objective of war, where and when occurred, is to deplete or destroy the enemy capacity to wage war. In so doing, one might have applied too much force, but generally, only in hindsight, not during the fight. Even if so, who started the war? I am glad the Allies in WW2 threw everything they got against the Axis. Else, we might not have this conversation today. I wouldn't even have been born.
So very true. I have for most of my grownup life spoken the truth as I see it, and it has caused me many heart breaking moments, but the thought of living a constant lie would have completely broken me. Many moments that I have looked back on I have thought I could have handled it better, but hind sight is such a wonderful thing and allows you to see things with further knowledge gained in the interim period, as well as time to have thought the episode through which you did not have at the time it happened.
Brilliant, Doc.🤘🤘
Exactly. Thankyou.
I encourage everyone here watching this to share this video with the children in their lives. After they watch it, have a discussion about what they learned and have them write an essay discussing a truth that they feel needs to be said and defend.
God bless Jordan Peterson, and let God continue to guide and give him strength to take on this heavy but necessary burden. Thank you ARC!

Jordan your speeches are so truthful and needed by this crumbling society that has so much potential if only the machivellian manipulators of truth would wake up and take off the blinders hiding their own potential. If they would only stop lying for their own gain.
We must lose our life to find it. Lay our life at God's feet, realizing that only He knows what purpose we have been created for. Even Jesus himself had to be committed to doing His Father's will in order to do what He did. John 5:19

Ancient message and truths are proof that they're never lost to the passing of time, but they become lost to those who are either forbidden from studying them or when people no longer see the value in truth and virtue. Jordan Peterson stated, "people don't know where to find meaning in their life and one of the places you find meaning in your life is in your problems." My own living has taught me that experiencing personal problems in life won't necessarily "give meaning to your life" but rather its more likely to make us wretched. I've learned that in order to avoid becoming wretched people, seeking the meaning to our problems is the only way to acquire wisdom. The study of ancient stories and lessons will teach us the meaning of our problems and, if anything, this marks a promising beginning towards growing a conscience. But how do we grow a conscience in the midst of a human culture placing its emphasis on saying and doing anything to get what you want? Mr. Peterson stated, "if you run from the promptings of your conscience then not only do you risk drifting into a counterproductive unconsciousness, but you endanger everyone on board the ship that you are part of." There's no doubt that having knowledge of the meaning to our problems will start the process of acquiring wisdom but growing a conscience it's more like a leap of faith required from us and a voluntary willingness to come to terms with wanting to do what is best. The lessons we get to learn from ancient stories and teachings is part of the process of understanding so that we don't live by the pitfalls of life. Mr. Peterson said that "if you know anything about the rise of totalitarian states and you don't understand that there's no difference between a totalitarian state and a state where every single person lies about absolutely everything all the time to themselves and everyone they love, with lies of commission so outright falsehoods and lies of omission which is refusal to say what you know needs to be said, then you know nothing at all about totalitarian states." Historically speaking it's been people-of-conscience the ones burdened with speaking out when they know that the things taking place in society are wrong and that this is not a simple matter of becoming great noice makers but rather clearly knowing right from wrong, good from bad, just from unjust. Thinking about it, if our creator would have wanted for us to keep quiet, he wouldn't have created human beings but instead would have populated the world only with shrimp. And the story with shrimps is that while in the current they just go whichever way the current wants to take them without the least amount of independent thinking. The rise of totalitarian society begins when human beings start behaving more like shrimps in the current and less like people-of-concience. ReneB, Florida.
This happened to me, metaphoricly. Our church leaders sent us a plan of Bible Studies that we were to learn and then inact. 5 sessions. The first 3 were sameo, sameo. But then they.were heavy WOKE. I saw this plainly but the did not
I would not give it up. The Pastor suggested I attend the big meeting which was just around the corner ro see if this was indeed the case. I did. I couldn't believe it. The president asked for the group who put this Bible Study together to come forward. Then he asked us all to stand and applaud them! That was it. It had been swallowed hook line and sinker by these people. When i got home i.quit the church, i had been their for 15+ years and was the church secretary. Went to another church for about a year. God told me to go back. They had not taken on this Bible Study nor become WOKE. The president of the group had resigned, as his wife had cancer. Boy, was that close!
Sorry about the mistakes, did not catch them till after posting
Thank you
Thank you ! 🙏

Come share the story of my life, so interesting to tell.
I am the bible in the drawer, my home is a motel.
Many people handle me and read my words it's true,
Taking what they "will" to find, while missing the real clue.
There came a man so full of pride, with all the things he'd done.
He laughed at me; threw me down and turned the T. V. on.
A woman with a child in tow, read words self-righteously,
Stating how "they" would be saved, others hell would see.
A lady of such style and class, turned my pages cold,
While stating with authority, "Negroes don’t have souls."
Then came a tender aged man, illiterate I knew,
Holding me with gentle care, such warmth I seldom knew.
Tears flowed down his wrinkled face, as my cover he kept closed,
With love he held for others, my clue he did unfold.
Yes, I'm the bible of God's word, the mirror of your soul.
You receive just what you bring to me, for you must choose your goal.
Man-made words will confuse, if confused you choose to be.
But when you know that God is love, my symbol you will see.

Really good retelling, one of the best I've heard... But I've heard it so many times I could have listened all the way through because it brought up some bad memories of an instance of one of these tellings
About a year ago I dreamed I was sitting in my car in the driveway of the home I grew up in. I was facing the house, and the garage looked like a part of the house with big windows. My parents came into view, entering that place, it was all lit up from lights inside, while the driveway area was all in greys and driftwood colors. My Dad came walking out toward my car… my sweet dad looking like I remember him in about his early sixties (he passed away several years ago at age 86). I recognized his ‘walk’. He leaned down to look in my passenger window as I unrolled it. “Don’t be afraid to go on your adventure”, he said. That was the end of my dream. I decided and prayed , ‘okay, I am willing to go on my adventure.’ But I didn’t know what that meant. Since then I have said some truths to family members and others, things I had been afraid to speak about. I’m glad I did, I was able to speak with love while being honest. It is healing, and strengthening. Love this telling of Jonah- perhaps speaking the truth my conscience has brought to mind and heart is part of my adventure.
You are wise . As the scripture says; " If u see a wise person visit hom early. Let your foot wear out his doorsteps. Thank u Jordan Peterson.
I love the way you speak on the Bible. There are so many layers of meaning to it; I recently had an epiphany and heard God’s voice. He told me “I AM gonna use your bullheadedness” I have never said that word in my life; or read it in the Bible. After my encounter I was telling everyone that what happened in Acts Ch. 7 happened to me… so funny because a month later I googled where bullheaded was in The Bible and in a different translation it was in Acts 7
I know understand all the things God the Father told me. He is really. He spoke to me in a different logos than mine. I have proof of the supernatural! The symbolism is real. The psychologist analyst point of view is real, the realistic point of view is real, and the supernatural point of view is real. I am honored to walk in whatever God has planned for me… like David said in Psalms it was all written in God’s book before it ever happened. I know He even has foreknowledge of things that don’t take place. He knows all and sees all, and one day we will meet Christ on the other side. #judgementday is coming. Revelation 12:11

Now is NOT the time to acquiesce. Duty is ours. RESIST.
Speak first.

Such wisdom.🙏
It’s not that I don’t speak up b/c I don’t want difficulties, it’s that most people wanting censorship talk circles around me with their manipulation. Then I embolden them. Does anyone else have trouble with manipulative speech?
You won't find any welders , nurses aides, grocery baggers, gas station attendants, garbage men, housewives at any of these events. The little people aren't worthy to share their ideas with the intellectuals. We're inarticulate, unable to communicate as well so not worth even listening to.
We mental health professionals hear from those you call the little people every day, every month, every year. We use our learned or innate gifts of articulation to make those points of view heard. I expect it is the same for lawyers and police and nurses and social workers and employers and elected officials
Maybe it's not a worth thing -- it's the fact that you can't afford it, you're not going to spend money to go to this, because you need the money for other things. But yes, it would be extraordinarily cool if there were scholarships available for if some people wanted to go but can't. Maybe they will do that. Or, if you really really want to go, you could message JP and make your case.
Well, it’s free for us all to watch it now!
Inspiring. There is a cost no matter how one chooses to act... Pain now or pain deferred

Brilliant man..
One place you can find meaning is in your problems.
When God spared Nineveh, Jonah was very angry about it, and sat down and sulked about it, until God Showed him that the correct attitude was one of compassion for the people of that city. The reason for this is in line with the message of Genesis: God is not a tyrant. He does not punish, but allows the natural consequences of defying his laws to have their inevitable effect, hence, due warning. That Nineveh was spared indicates not only that the people there changed their ways (repented) and that Jonah's mission was successful, but that his annoyance is in line with the self-contentedness of his original attitude of letting the city be destroyed while he ran away. God's warning though His wise ones are not vengeance, but loving compassion.
Why then, do people that have answers for our society ignored by those that say they want a better way?
Let's go
Alma 36: 10,12-13
And it came to pass that I fell to the earth; and it was for the space of three days and three nights that I could not open my mouth, neither had I the use of my limbs.... But I was racked with eternal torment, for my soul was harrowed up to the greatest degree and racked with all my sins. Yea, I did remember all my sins and iniquities, for which I was tormented with the pains of hell; yea, I saw that I had rebelled against my God, and that I had not kept his holy commandments.
I hadn’t thought of that connection! Thank you
