Can you expand on this thought? Why don't you like him? His comedy is terrible. Before he became a leftist shill his jokes we’re just standard vulgarity in Australia, just think George Carlin with the satire. He starts going on with a bunch of liberal nonsense and then he’s suddenly a success in the US? what a coincidence. I like Bill Hicks and he was very left leaning 🤷🏻♀️. How is Jordan Peterson a nut job? Trudeau sexually assaults women (as all Women are to believed 😒) and Peterson tells people to clean their room. Thanks. I don't understand the bit about Trudeau and peterson you added, totally not following the peterson convo

20% of men are having sex with 80% of women? lol wut
Do these guys know how many women out there would fuck them if they just washed themselves a normal amount and didn't act like fucking 10 year olds? I think they'd be surprised at how easy it can be to get laid.
I can think of at least a half dozen guys who are ugly as fuck by traditional standards but landed total babes because they showered once a day and didn't act like fucking morons in public.

I can think of at least a half dozen guys who are ugly as fuck by traditional standards but landed total babes because they showered once a day and didn't act like fucking morons in public. I think the 80/20 rule often gets misinterpreted. It's based on an OKCupid/Tinder study collecting data on who messages who, etc. It suggests that 80% of women are chasing 20% of the men. The top 20% (Chads) have their pick of the litter, so they are essentially having sex with "all the women". Of course that ignores the fact that internet dating is a looks based system and since women are the sellers in the market they're not gonna initiate messages with someone unless they're really good looking.

Pretty sure Peterson is talking to a lot more than those guys. He wouldn't be as successful as he is if a huge portion of his audience was such a small group.

It’s anecdotal for sure, but everyone I know who is reading Peterson is married.

In all fairness if you're talking about the sexual marketplace then the 80/20 rule is true. A 6 woman can get an 8 or 9 guy to sleep with her, guys aren't that picky if they don't have to call in the morning as it's purely sexual. The dating market is a complete different thing and I sort of get MGTOW bit, I mean the girl that wouldn't look at you twice being interested once she hits her late 20's and the tick of her biological clock is a bit much. Mostly the problem is with men pining on women out of their league and getting bitter, stop chasing bimbos and look for nice girls. The guys also as you mention need to have some self respect and look after themselves. The fella with the fedora and the pube beard and anime shirts aren't getting a girl.

End of day with incels. They're here. Some get extremely fixated in echo chambers. And at least 2 have gone crazy violent. Only indications show there will be violence again from this odd incel culture. What to do to stop the violence?
I don't think the answer is just to insult and insulate or isolated a group that already feels that way.
Jordan talks to them, about them and tried to reach out to make men better men. I'm not seeing the problem here. I don't see him calling them to violence. He wants them to clean their room, get their life in order, stand up straight and women will be attracted to them.
You got a better plan? Ignore them and they'll go away? Call them pimple faced losers?

Incels is a term they’ve developed and embraced, not something used to label them from the outside.

I’ve heard Incel used way more as an insult by the left, then anyone self identifying. For example..At the end, with the “refugee” that has a stronger Australian accent than I do 🙄.
My friend is a huge fan, but he’s Mormon so I guess it’s voluntary.

The group of people have horrific views on women and misogyny by and large.
I have no empathy for such a hateful group.

To be clear, Peterson validated some of their viewpoints on women sexual liberation being a massive cause of their issues.
If his message was simply get a life, get a job and be active, he’d have mine (and probably the majority of people’s) support.

Empathy or not for them does not change the fact of their existing or the victims of their violence.
I get it, you hate a group you believe is full of hate. Great. Congrats on your on being virtuous. But that hate only causes more violence and death.
Now what to do to stop them from killing people?

I don’t know if it’s possible to stop a fringe group from committing acts of violence and terrorism. If it was simple, don’t you think society would’ve achieved this long ago?
I’ll tell you what’s not the answer: validating their beliefs or adjusting society to adhere to their views.

Great, so we have non solutions ignoring hating/ shunning adjusting society to them
and Dr Peterson addressing them on how to be better men.
am I missing anything?

Yeah ... Peterson validates their claims the shift to an equal society where women have sexual liberation and rights is a core reason their struggling. That’s dangerous.

What the fuck? :lol: *High pitched Kermit the Frog voice* "That brings us to Shawn Michaels and The Kliq, cultural Marxists to the bloody core." *High pitched Kermit the Frog voice* Just kidding, I can't watch a 22 minute Jordan Peterson video incoherently rambling about Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

KJ, I listened to 8 minutes of it. Since this thread kind of died and time has passed I have completely bored of JP. Some of his simple self-help messages stick with me. But I think that it is only coincidence that I heard it from him. I could have heard the same theory on how we dictate our own success from someone else and it could have stuck just the same. Some would call it a negative that the stuff he spews sometimes isn't original. I am not sure it needs to be. Like the theory of how we dictate our own success by taking risks and dedicating time and such. It's nothing new, but his version stuck for me. Listening to that 8 minutes, boy can that guy passionately ramble. Glancing over a couple comments to get you your comment and see how the comments on incels reminded me of a video I thought of sharing. I find it highly realistic and highly disturbing on incels. I generally call it the scariest film of 2018 even if it is just a short film. vimeo.com/291799028?cjevent=0aaebc141b3711e9825601750a24060b

Highly realistic indeed since it's just a retelling of Elliot Rodger. Although unlike the real events it possibly could've been worse since he seemed to be invited to a sorority house (albeit as a guest). The opening few minutes was very cringe inducing. Not the performance, but the scene.

In any Revolution there are winners and losers, the sexual liberation of women has pretty much relegated a group of men to the scrap heap, so maybe this is unfortunate but the men need to increase their value to survive.
Ironically, the sexual revolution has brought capitalism to sex... Can't say I'm too bothered because women were commoditized for millennia. Women are free now in the same way capitalism liberated men in a feudal society.

Women are free now in the same way capitalism liberated men in a feudal society. Guess that's what made Peterson's comments so powerful when he talked about society's path from monogamy to poly. More and more guys like this are alienated and isolated. If you have no ties to society you have no incentive to contribute and more justification to lash out violently. Creates other problems like the single motherhood epidemic. Which combined with very few male teachers or role models and we have more criminals born everyday who are probably not gonna be swayed by a razor commercial... That said making sex transactional would work for incels. They're more likely to be in stem fields making 6 figures. Sure she won't love you but you can pay for the fantasy. Ness is probably a 4 but when tuition and rent are due it bumps me up a few points. So that aspect I don't get them. If you have money you cannot be celibate...

I have vaguely been aware of Dr. Jordan B. Peterson for a long time. I watched the Bret Hart video Kilgore posted and his dismantling of Channel 4's Cathy Newman ages ago. But it's only within the last week that I dove deep down the Peterson rabbit hole. He is the hero we need. Early going still, but I have yet to see him defeated in a debate, and nearly every one I've watched has a "gotcha" moment similar to his verbal joust with Newman.
Just checked his tour dates. He came to Baltimore in September. *sigh* I always miss out on the good stuff.

The only issue I have with Peterson and his videos is he takes forever to get to his points. It's like watching a Chris Hero promo.

Did Baker ‘s account get hacked? No. This is legitimately Baker. Proof: I tell long rambling stories, have a singular obsession with 95-96 wrestling, use far too many emojis for somebody my age, and spam too many adjectives & exclamation points for anybody at any age. I've always stayed away from discussing politics on PW. Even now I find arguing politics to be a pointless endeavor. No minds are likely to be changed. On a good day it inevitably degenerates into two sides shouting at one another. On a normal day it begins with two sides shouting at each other. But I'm bored with wrestling, waiting on the next music countdown, didn't participate in UT's countdown (though I'm following along!), and the events of the past week got me fired up. So fuck it. I'm talking politics for a day or two until I find the next shiny object. Then I'll likely go another 6 years before doing so again. I was actually just working on a follow up post to your latest in the Covington thread. Maybe I'll complete it and maybe I won't.

I just finished reading 12 Rules for Life, I was more interested in his thoughts than looking for any self help. I really enjoyed it for the most part except for the large amount of annotations. It reminded me of when people make an obscure reference in a joke..then explain the reference straight away if no one gets it.
I really wanted to more about the Chris guy he mentions in his book and whether he got kicked out of their home or not but maybe that just got glossed over for privacy reasons.
Felt sorry for his daughter and her condition also.
