      ​@Rosencreutzzz yeah unfortunately this specific topic was heavily covered between like 2017-2019/2020 (for obvious reasons) and most old guard essayists have given their take on it three times over ,: ] I quite like your video thus far and really appreciat your fresh point of view and additional context! but it's coming into an already quite saturated environment.
      I will say, though, if you feel the oversaturation is significant enough to warrant some marketing changes, F.D. has had success changing the title and thumbnail for his videos to draw in new viewers not drawn by prior ones. But im not a video creator or a marketer so that note should be taken with skepticism 😅

    Jordan Peterson is the postmodern parody of the "modernist artist". The individual who tries to move forward becomes a conservative romanticist, the mystique of modernist artists is changed to a 24/7 soap opera of craziness, whisky is exchanged for benzodiazepines and the rational metanarratives become surface level feelings shoved in a blender of dead metanaratives. He is a symptom of our postmodern world and every time he wallows at it, he just becomes a mirror of it.

    There's a book 'Blindsight' where an alien spaceship parks itself around Jupiter and humans go out to see what's up with it. Eventually it starts responding to communications. But there's something weird about it. Like what it says is technically human language and seems to be responding to the other side correctly. But it's just off. Eventually they realize that this species of alien is sort of non-sentient and is sort of responding in a super complex form of instinct. And that it doesn't actually understand anything that it's been saying and it's just learned human language without understanding what any of it means or that it even has meaning. That is what Jordan Peterson sounds like to me. He's almost like an IQ test. How long does it take you to realize that while these are grammatically correct sentences they mean literally nothing.

Both being double-talkers who throw sandstorms of erudite-sounding allusions into the air, make no discernible logical connections between any of the little stinging grains of sand therein, then state an a priori conclusion and challenge the listener to refute an argument which has not actually been made. Every paragraph of Spengler I've ever read and every paragraph of Peterson I've ever heard follows exactly this same tiresome, "irrefutable" pattern.

    This is a fantastic video, kudos. I think the main divide that makes Jung a valuable pioneer and Peterson a total nutcase is that Jung embraced the postmodern tendencies of his era and built a psychological (and later, metaphysical and ontological) framework that accommodated them, while Peterson utterly failed in this, and declared postmodernism his sworn enemy. This is probably why he loves Dostoevsky so much, because Dostoevsky's best characters are warriors against nihilism-and it's Peterson's folly to see nihilism where Jung saw a new, exciting from of truth.
    That said, though I disagree with some of your criticisms of Jung, I'm very glad that you didn't just kick off with relating Jung to Peterson's ass-backwards interpretations of him and instead engaged with his ideas directly. I feel most modern thinkers boil Jung down and unfairly call him "disconnected from the world" (he was a practicing and extremely successful clinical psychologist after all), and I do think you fall partially into that trap too-for example, the definition you give of "archetype" is extremely far from what Jung meant when he used the word, and is more so related to the later humanities' appropriation of the term. I assume you did this to fit it all within the video, but it might be that you only have second-hand knowledge of many of these ideas. Still, your identification of his ideas with Kant is spot on in that Jung very much spent the first decades of his career attempting to bring Kant down to Earth (which is another point against calling Jung a "disconnected").
    P.S. Nice attempt at pronouncing "Can Uğursal", best attempt at Turkish I've ever heard from an American :)

      Yeah, sorry Jeff, I'll be sure to leave it to my betters to discuss the impact and ideology of a man with millions of followers worldwide.
      To be less facetious, your argument is strikingly backwards. I've subjected myself to public scrutiny in posting this on the internet, I'm a relatively nobody, but in your framework, the only people who should be discussing Peterson (not "pick on" as you unfairly ascribe here) are his peers. Peterson *is* troubled, and often by monsters of his own making, that's a core point for me. I'm giving his his ideas their context, and probably one of only times the "dragon debate" will ever be brought up in this space without being a punchline.
      It would be picking on him to be like "yeah this guy is just an idiot, what do you mean dragons are real lmao" and then talk about exclusively his tweets for 20 minutes and call it a day. I'm taking him serious.
      Troubled or not, he's got a massive platform, has sold millions of books, and also has an ill-formed political outlook that he shares with such aggression it merits embarrassment from the people whom his books have helped. That isn't something to just tut-tutt at and go "oh well he's troubled such a shame"

      @@myilmazalper Apologies. I did read your comment, but then I saw the other one and, well, felt like I had to respond more pointedly to it. I do think the Dostoevsky remark is very on point. In fact, I think between my youth fixation on a lot of Romantic era culture and being a Dostoevsky nerd, that's part of why I kinda... empathize with Peterson, in a way. I don't think his interests are silly, but I do think he's approached a lot of things from a sour angle. I'm not personally very convinced in the contemporary value of Jung, but I do see his historical impact and some of the value of terms, the same way I do with Freud. I think my bone to pick with him, however, comes from the people who cite him as their inspiration, and then end up being fixated on heroes, or universalities.
      His disconnect I think comes from his era. And I know that gets said a lot about people from the past, but I think the fact that psychology has moved past generalizations to a degree is a sign that it's not an inherent truth of the field, and that he'd probably have grown past them himself.

    • @denniszaychik8625
      @denniszaychik8625 23 часа назад

      Wonderfully said. Also another reason why the whole Jung being "disconnected" argument is quite silly is because based on his works like The Red Book and the Seven Sermons to the Dead, Answer to Job and several others it can be clearly seen that Jung throughout his life was torn between his scholarly side and the striving for metaphysical knowledge/wisdom side. Trying to say that he belonged only to one sphere of knowledge and proclaiming that it was the essential core of his entire worldview is quite unfair and dishonest in my honest opinion.

    So this video was about Peterson's Jungian side, there should be another about his fascist side, further evidencing fascism's and (Evola's coined) Traditionalism's post-modernism, seeing how Evola came from a post-modernist art background (only as a way to criticize The Church as Curtis Yarvin would say to his techno-fascists), ironically the postmodern movement he was a part of Dadaism was a Romanian movememt too

And evem further still, the Gospels were not written in the moment, after all.

    Really enjoyed the video! I appreciate the effort put into an actual and multifaceted explanation of the issue of post-modernism. I was however quite a bit disappointed in the section on Marxism, I don't think it would be a very bad faith interpretation of the video that you take Marxism very much as a simple concept that can be explained "under 30 seconds", or just in a single section. I would disagree with just about everything you describe in the video about Marxism, and I hope this doesn't come across as aggressive. First of all, you note that Leotard, ""founder"" of post-modernism was one that opposed the concept, and I think in that sense it is rather weird to not mention that Marx very famously also opposed the concept of Marxism on several occasions, such as the famous "Je ne suis pas marxiste" phrasing, but this is also an issue that people have written several books on, such as Tom Rockmore's "Marx after Marxism" (pretty good towards the middle, somewhat lackluster at the beginning and end). But much more significantly, whilst the starting sentence of a pamphlet written early on in Marx's career (the Communist Manifesto) may give the impression that the matter is rather easy with regards to "stages", this has in fact been one of the most widely discussed issues in the study of Marxism and amongst Marxists. If the matter is clear cut, I would like to suggest that it is "clear cut" in the other direction. Marx opposed the idea of a "march of history", let's look at a few texts. In the German Ideology, one of the earlier texts where he very clearly takes up the "idea" of communism, he also does so in a context of arguing against a march of history, or of a goal to push history towards:
    "Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established, an ideal to which reality [will] have to adjust itself. We call communism the real movement which abolishes [sublates] the present state of things. The conditions of this movement result from the premises now in existence."
    To make the point a bit clear, for Marx the question of communism has mainly to do with asserting that; (1) we live under capitalism, a certain arrangement of society, (2) if we can identify what sort of society we live under, so we should point out the things which we would need to get rid of such that we no longer live under that society. Shortly put, "communism" for Marx refers to "not-capitalism". Here, Marx doesn't need to speak about a narrative (explicitly arguing against one) but rather just claim various things about how society is about today.
    But Marx made a sort of historical analysis that included, famously, concepts like "primitive communism", or "feudalism" etc. So, he needs to clearly be furthering a universal narrative, right? Well, Marx's writings on this topic are complicated and have evolved in various ways (his Ethnological Notebooks are especially relevant in this regard), but luckily for us, he has answered this issue himself. Whilst Russian "populist" socialists (Narodniks) were discussing on the issue of whether or not Russia had to go through a capitalist stage, some have used Marx's theories to defend the idea that history moved in stages and thus it was a necessity for Russia to go through capitalism in order to get to socialism. Marx disagreed, here is an excerpt from his letter to the journal/newspaper Otocestveniye Zapinksy:
    "Now what application to Russia can my critic make of this historical sketch? Only this: If Russia is tending to become a capitalist nation after the example of the Western European countries, and during the last years she has been taking a lot of trouble in this direction - she will not succeed without having first transformed a good part of her peasants into proletarians; and after that, once taken to the bosom of the capitalist regime, she will experience its pitiless laws like other profane peoples. That is all. But that is not enough for my critic. He feels himself obliged to metamorphose my historical sketch of the genesis of capitalism in Western Europe into an historico-philosophic theory of the marche generale imposed by fate upon every people, whatever the historic circumstances in which it finds itself, in order that it may ultimately arrive at the form of economy which will ensure, together with the greatest expansion of the productive powers of social labour, the most complete development of man. But I beg his pardon. (He is both honouring and shaming me too much.)"
    So, what he is saying here is that, if Russia is moving towards capitalism, then it will need to go through such and such social transformations, not because there is a stage called "feudalism" and the next stage is "capitalism", but because capitalism as a system involves a few things and becoming a capitalist country involves those things, importantly he goes on to demonstrate how he believes Rome had a similar situation at one point but did not develop a capitalist system.
    For very little that has been said about Marxism in the video, I feel that there is a lot that could be criticised, although it is really nice to see such a nuanced discussion of the relationship between Peterson and post-modernism, but I just wish that it did not engage in Marxism as most every other academic text tends to, considering it a settled issue that can just be ignored by reductions so simplistic that I feel they are hardly justified.

Is it the idea of a figure performing petty, meaningless, yet otherwise completely impossible tasks to atone for their crimes? Is it somebody very strong who's good at fighting monsters?

    I wonder about Peterson's Quixote-level fight against nihilism. He called Nietzche's work "dangerous to read" and I feel like that's actually very accurate.
    In the last few years Doctor P. really revealed a lot of his insecurities and fears, which I think is actually great both for him and for the longer health of his career and legacy. His ideas are as wrong as they are fascinating. He sometimes can arrive at really deep and interesting thoughts and in the next sentence commit such thought-killing cliches that it can be really stunning. Though I don't know if his fans are capable of recognizing that. Not because they're stupid, but because they don't want to see the truth of what he is.
    I feel like philosophers should be more vulnerable, it's become really easy to see them as these 'Great Men' of great thought, treat them like heroes or saints, or villains, when they are ultimately humans who just arrived at strange and fascinating thoughts.

    B. Fire breathes, consuming oxygen and releasing carbon gasses the same way we do
    C. Fire is self replicating
    D. Fire is able to move to new energy sources if available
    And although it doesn't seem like fire should be treated as a living being, since it lacks a lot of other elements life as we know it needs to earn this title, such as a genome, it's not a stretch of the imagination to say that fire is in fact a creature.

    If you wanted the term explained, you could have gone for Perry Anderson's Origins of Postmodernity instead of Lyotard, especially for an infinitely stronger historical account. Plus his discussion of Jameson's division of the term, with post-modenity as the economic-historical determinant and post-modernism as the cultural logic of that period, is very helpful for these kinds of arguments.

    • @Rosencreutzzz
      @Rosencreutzzz  День назад +2

      I think there's definitely value in other scholars, but Lyotard is the one I spent the most time with, by far and had a far more internalized impact on me, so on that front alone it was the only choice. Beyond that, I don't know if I can really get into nor contest the idea of a "stronger historical account" but at the least I did consider bringing Jameson up.
      On another level still, I've wanted to give Lyotard more dedicated space in one of my videos (he's had stray mentions) since the start, and this seemed like the proper venue to do so.
      And it's not like he's overplayed, certainly not on this platform, so I think it's kinda... fun, to be honest, to just share a philosopher more in-depth here. I like his framing, even if it's hard to articulate at times, and when I read his work I feel like it makes me think in the right patterns.

    Paraphrasing the video, "Did we not learn something by asking the question?" No actually, we didn't. Language can be interrogated via meta-language, that is, language about language. Meta-language can in turn be interrogated by further meta-languages, ad infinitum. Meta-languages can be arbitrarily complex, thus you can discuss language by means of language to an artificial level of specificity and abstraction to no actual end or relation to reality. There is no reason to believe that the infinite analysis of symbols by means of symbols will ever actually accrue new insight or knowledge, especially if the meta-language is self-referential like it is in much of philosophy and has no basal relation to sensuous experience. What you have is not "philosophy" or science, but scholasticism in a new set of clothes.

    @DreamsOfRyleh Час назад +1

    For your consideration, neo-marxism means something pretty specific to Peterson. I'm not sure it's particularly significant, but it isn't as empty as you are suggesting. JP believes the Stalinist nightmare so thoroughly discredited Marxism as a political movement that it's intellectual champions (in his view: Foucalt and Derida) were forced to pivot. Instead of capital being the roadblock to progress, capital was taken as just one form of coercive power, and power itself was the problem. Power could come in a variety of forms (money, religion, government, culture) and where Marxism suggests utopia can be achieved by workers seizing the means of production, neo-marxism demands seizing the means by which social power is produced.
    There's a lot to critique about this concept (like, how is it different than anarchism, is there not a meaningful difference between Marxism as a tool of analysis vs Marxism as a specific political project, etc). But it's not a concept entirely devoid of meaning, and it IS comparable with post modernism (and especially post structuralism).

    I'm unconvinced that one line from The Manifesto, a pamphlet he wrote around the age of 30, is the definitive statement that Marx's work is incompatible with French post-structuralism for several reasons.
    1. It ignores later works that problematize this assertion. For example, in one of the prefaces to Capital, Marx states, "There is no royal road to science."
    2. It ignores that both Engels and Paul Lafargue, Marx's son-in-law, argue against the notion that Marx's work is deterministic.
    3. It ignores that the inspiration for Marx in the relation of class struggle and history comes from Giambattista Vico; who's seen as the forefather of constructivism in the social sciences.
    4. It ignores that several of the post-structuralists were Marxists, Barthes, Guattari, and Deleuze (according to Guattari)
    This is not to give credit to Peterson of course, it seems that both Peterson and Dawkins are unaware that Popper shares a significant amount of postmodern tendencies as well

    Minor point that does not affect your argument/ analysis here (which I very much enjoy) but that you might find interesting: Frye isn't really that unique if you look wide enough, and the pure literalist reading you describe here in opposition to him is also pretty recent. If you pick up Augustine's De Doctrina, you'll see (what we'd consider) a bible-as-literature approach was something that coexisted with (and was often intertwined with) bible-as-literalist-history in earlier centuries; see Dante's letter to Cangrande as a turning point where Bible-as-literature-stuff actually began to transfer over to literature beyond scripture.

      I agree he isn't that unique in the broader context of biblical study, but this is the angle of the impact he had on Peterson, and while what he was doing wasn't necessarily the most groundbreaking thing, it is to an extent a modernist lens. He's one of the people Peterson (and a few other "notables" like Margaret Atwood) cite as an inspiration for their own work.
      Amusingly, Lyotard has a whole book on the Confessions of Augustine, as well as some referential essays. In some ways, he feels like a modernist before his time, but that's not an argument I would make seriously so much as a *vibe*

    Hi, know you're probably also familiar with the texts but Lyotard's postscript to the "postmodern condition" is also really interesting in how it looked at postmodernism both preceding and being a prerequisite to the production of the modernism, as a way to open up space. He also does something in "heidegger and 'the jews'" - probably one of my favourite of his works, but it's little read - in how the production of any story requires a certain forgetting (which takes on a freudian double-bind character, similair to the incomensurability of the differend).

And I also think that the other forms of postmodernism can be rather painlessly subsumed by this framing of what it means for something to be postmodern. I like to joke that I am in act the post-modern neomarxist that peterson talks about because I strongly subscribe to the belief that meta-narratives cannot be universal and also tend to think that marxism provides a narrative through which many things can be effectively understood.

    Maybe Peterson fully understood post-modernism, rejected both nihilism and the pursuit of whatever’s next and just embraced a weird amalgam of what he knew (he took the blue pill mixed with some psychedelics).
    I think neo-marxism may “exist”
    It could be the use of Marx’s analytical tools to extend beyond simple economics and proletariat-bourgeoisie and into other realms (AKA feminism, blackness, etc) and is still paradoxical with post-modern unless you interpret “neo-marxism” as still being nihilistic and that communism = collapse
    (It’s stupid but it kinda makes sense from their perspective, otherwise why would Peterson use it instead of just “marxists” or “post modernists”? Maybe I’m making the opposite of a strawman, but I assume he must have at least some reasons to use a term that, as far as I know, _only he_ uses). If anyone could have an actual (and complex) logic to his statements, rather than it just being obscurantism/grift/PR, it could be Peterson The Confused
    The questions begged by trying to understand “post modern neomarxism” has given me a better understanding of both as well as Peterson’s own ideas than any video on either of them individually would. I gotta write this ish down.

    Peterson? Nietzsche? Jung? Aren't they the guys that declare "god's death" and "god's rebirth" whenever they feel like to?

    You know as someone rather firmly right-wing this was actually a rather interesting watch. I had always felt Peterson was a bit, bumbling I guess is a good way to put it? Never able to just say what he was thinking. But putting it in this lens was very interesting and illuminating on well, quite a few things, this video was rather dense ahaha. But dense in a way I like. Thank you!
    Edit: I think what I dislike about him is that he embodies a lot of, just nostalgia-blinded people I see on the right. Can’t just roll back the clock. It’s utterly foolish of them and it grinds on me. I just feel like we’re in some period of transition. Well we’re always transitioning to somewhere but I just firstly feel society hasn’t “digested” the shift that is the internet. As it needed time for other changes to filter through and new beliefs resulted. I’ll openly admit I can’t even solidly tell you what sort of overarching beliefs or vision I push for because I’m still thinking that out. And in that I think a lot of the “trad” right wingers are just foolishly drowning in nostalgia for older times when that’s just impossible to recreate with the way things are. And secondly if you’re trying to solve it just rolling back the clock is pointless because those past conditions created the ones they whinge about! Peterson is a big figure in that I think. Hilariously this is a bit bumbling myself but that’s what I get for trying to fit this into the end of a lunch break!

    I’d say that the systematic theology that is most apparent in the Reformation and Medieval scholasticism but also appears in the works of the Church Fathers is not, by most definitions, modern. The conception of the Bible as a unified narrative is the traditional view in Western Christendom, and the Baptist departure from it in favor of a “verse by verse fact book of unconnected things that God did” is truly much more modern. Still, applying the particulars of Jungian literary analysis to the Bible is a new approach to this

    I'm sorry but your takes on Jung and Campbell were just outright wrong and blatant misrepresentations.
