I like his ideas that equity means equal possibilities not equal outcome.

Other is that it is perfectly fine to feel and think about yourself however you will. Just don't automatically expect the society to embrace that view.

Yes, I'm a fan on a surface level - though there are many intricate topics and theories that he simplifies and assumes to be true. I met him when he came to my city, a very nice and well-mannered man.

He's spot on regarding people who won't take ownership of their actions becoming embittered souls for whom blaming the world is a full time job. You can't swing a dead cat without hitting one of these miserable unfortunates.

He seemed like a sensible voice in a time when speaking up was suicidal. Always comported himself well in spite of his excitable nature. Yeah, he set out to make bank after getting famous and is probably succeeding but seems like his message is genuinely intended to help people live well.

I'm less sold on his utter dismissal of Marx as the devil himself.

This.

I enjoy some of his material but never felt he offered anything original enough that compelled me to become a fan.
Maximizing his profits by getting involved in areas that are beyond his expertise and associating himself with the grift neocon right doesn't help either.

Funnily enough, those on the left view JP as an Alt-Right radical. Once you're genuinely “red-pilled” though, you realize how milquetoast and bland most of his views are. Then again, I don't know how much he's holding back.

I do think he offers solid advice on an individual level, especially for anyone feeling depressed and/or inadequate.

Post by: Megalodon on August 16, 2019, 12:09:46 PM
Peterson himself has said that he is a liberal.

Peterson tweeted during the Kavanaugh hearing that Kavanaugh should 'step down if confirmed'.

Peterson(Dave Rubin, Eric Weinstein, Harris, etc....) is what the media wanted accepted as "the right". That pushed the definition of right farther to the left and anything right of Peterson/Weinstein becomes a ''Nazi''. A media critical of "conservative" Jordan Peterson gave Peterson "street cred" as someone on the right aka "he must be on our side if the mainstream media is criticizing him".

Peterson coming out against 50 genders and all the clown world nonsense does not make him a conservative or on the right.

Read Jordanetics by Vox Day on what Peterson is really about. The right moved away from Peterson months ago. The Kavanaugh hearing tweet("If confirmed, Kavanaugh should step down.") was the nail in the coffin.

Since Peterson has been exposed, the new sneaky trick is for the left to infiltrate nationalism as explained in the linked video.

This video discusses what the left is now doing because Neocons and subsequently Peterson have been exposed:  https://www.unauthorized.tv/programs/433mp4-17439b (https://www.unauthorized.tv/programs/433mp4-17439b)

There's a strong, scary left wing movement among academics (university professors, scientists etc..) as of late. It's refreshing to have someone speak out against that.

I saw him speak live for 2 hours in my hometown. He has a religious like following. He did ramble on at times. Almost like he was manic. I found it rather exhausting.

I am still a huge fan though. Brilliant man.

It's intellectually lazy to dismiss every point Marx ever made by waving The Gulag Archipelago around instead of putting forth a specific counterpoint.

It appears to me that untempered capitalism or communism leads to a polarization of power, and that economies are most sustainable when neither the capitalist nor the workforce is disincentivised by the other guy writing all the rules. I don't figure that makes me some transgenderqueer open border dreadlocked trump tower occupier.

Precisely the Soros thing. That the polarization of wealth is an inevitable tension in a capitalist system which will lead to the failure of that system, either by people saying screw this bullshit or by virtue of the fact that capitalist competition no longer exists in what has become an aristocratic capitalism.

Today, both of those things are happening. People are fed up with companies getting rich exporting their jobs and then selling them back foreign made goods. It's one of the reasons Trump got in. I've heard that the 3 richest people in the US have as much money as the bottom 50% of the nation. That's a problem. I don't mean a moral problem, like "Waaa, it's unfair." I mean a practical problem. There's not going to be any innovating or competing against people who are sufficiently dug in that they basically rule the country. That's anticapitalistic. The result of untempered capitalism isn't more capitalism. It's economic hegemony. The engine of progress eventually overruns and destroys itself unless you moderate it.

Thus the tax rates of the 1950's and why they worked so well in doing so.

I agree that the concentration of wealth is a big problem of Capitalism, but the story about the richest 1% having more wealth than the bottom half of the population is misleading, and it has to do with how Oxfam measured inequality.

They did it by comparing net worths, which is a very stupid thing to do, unless done on purpose by someone intellectually dishonest looking to stir shit up.

Here's an example:

Jeff recently graduated from Law School with a student loan of 100k. He has a starting salary of 80k. Given that he has no assets, his net worth is -20k, making him poorer than most people in Venezuela, where people are starving and have a net worth close to 0.
Since 0 > -20k, Jeff is technically poorer than 90% of Venezuela's population, yet no one in their right mind will dare to claim Jeff is doing worse than venezuelans.

The manner by which it's created is.

Manufacturers routinely outsource to asian sweatshops to maximize their profits. There goes Argument 1: Job Creation that's so frequently used to convince us that we need to kiss the asses of the rich. I'm not saying it's dishonest to manufacture in asia, but I don't want to support a company that's creating jobs there but selling here.

Argument 2 is Tax Revenue. Amazon paid none in the USA. If a company is making bucks hand over fist then the company should benefit the country. If they refuse then ban them from your market and invite in someone who is going to contribute, like we all have to. They'd be begging to be allowed to pay back taxes to get back in.

This all basic Trump, America First stuff but no one called him a Marxist when he talked about "the hard working people" because he never called them the proletariat.

What you're saying about Amazon is totally false. While they don't technically pay "corporate taxes" they contribute over $1 Billion in other types of taxes. And that's just taxes. This argument also ignores the Billions of dollars generated for investors.  :-[

Peterson is not a Christian. He is propped up by the media as some kind of expert on Christianity when, by his own admission a couple years ago, he had even never read the bible. He believes more in Jung than in Christ.

JP is promoted by the media as "Christian" because that's what they want representing Christian thought. Peterson can not even give a straight answer as to whether he believes in God or not.   See video.  1:55

Sure. As the rules are at the moment, the best investments are the most rapacious companies who outsource everything they can to asia, peddle disposable plastic crap "best quality best price," and weasel out of their domestic tax obligations.

Oblige companies to do this as a condition of survival, and require investors to support them as the only way to make a buck. We'll make a few and gut the nation. Or change the rules so that manufacturing at home and not hiding in tax havens is actually better business.

So when 99% of the population is deciding between paying the rent/mortgage, putting food on the table or buying AMZN stock.. they should choose Amazon?..

WOW.. you really are that far out of touch with how broke the average person is..



99% of the population?  Where, Nigeria?

In the USA, when the poor are deciding between paying the rent/mortgage, putting food on the table or keeping their $120/month cable bill and their $100/month mobile service and smart phone, they choose cable and mobile service with smart phone.

That money could instead go to a zero fee zero minimum, US stock market index fund at Fidelity.  Gotta take responsibility for your life and for your future, and stop blaming Capitalism and the white devil.  

401(k), IRA millionaires at Fidelity surpass record highs in the second quarter

August 21, 2019

LOL. You've been brainwashed by the radical left into thinking the 1% owns everything and everyone else is poor.


Take a look a this: https://dqydj.com/income-percentile-by-state-calculator/

- The median household income in Texas is 59k a year. The cost of living for a family of 4 is roughly the same number.

- If a household makes 100k a year in Texas, they're at the 72nd percentile.

- If a household makes 200k a year in Texas, they're at the 93rd percentile.

- If a household makes 500k a year in Texas, they're at the 99th percentile.

You don't need to be amongst the richest 1% in order to invest your money.

Plenty of people from the middle and upper-middle class do it.

It turns out that wealth inequality isn't about the 1 percent v. the 99 percent at all. It's about the 0.1 percent v. the 99.9 percent (or, really, the 0.01 percent vs. the 99.99 percent, if you like). Long-story-short is that this group, comprised mostly of bankers and CEOs, is riding the stock market to pick up extraordinary investment income. And it's this investment income, rather than ordinary earned income, that's creating this extraordinary wealth gap.

Weren't we talking about how rich you need to be in order to invest in stocks? You just changed the subject. ::)

Look, I agree the extreme inequality is a big problem, but 99% of americans are not broke, as you imply.

Peterson talks extensively about inequality and human hierarchies. It's inevitable. No matter what system you have some people will perform better than others. They occur in nature (the "lobster" analogy).

Wealth equality should never be a goal. If we tax the "bankers" and "CEOs" that reduces equality BUT it makes society poorer as well.

This is how Caliber Fitness Solutions, The Leader in Human Evolution since 2001, was able to grow. Middle and Upper Middle class were buying stocks at 4 cents per stock.
