"An angry white male" Who desperately strives to improve young men, society, and the experience of being. And succeeds. God bless Jordan Peterson. He's helping me and countless other young men like me change my life.
Imagine being Latino that agrees with Mr Peterson and hearing that it's "angry white male" think. It's more offensive than you think to hear logic and reason be called what it so clearly is not and to mislable all of us who agree with logic and reason as racist when one is clearly not.
This is how a true journalist does an interview. When he plays antagonist it is for the purpose of understanding the person, not to push an agenda. Thank you John for your developed talent and years of hard work!
I am for most of what Jordan Peterson preaches but the interviewer is playing devil's advocate too obviously in his favor that just takes the joy out of watching this video. 6.5/10
An interesting contrast between this interview and the "interview" he has in that clip. The "interviewer" in that clip was about making herself the subject of the discussion, rather than having the interviewee the subject. Nice contrast.
agreed.i used to judge/underestimate Stossel,until one day i heard him as a guest on Dennis Millers old radio show, Miller can be a dick at times& snob, tried to show his superior Intellect,making too clever references to keep someone on their toes, etc.,& Stossel would just let one go over his head &say,",sorry, i didn't catch the reference, uh... ," or something & let the dead air hang, very refreshing & it made Miller have to change tac.
Yes!! I've never thought of it like that, but that's exactly what he is for so many lost and lonely men. He encourages them to be dissatisfied with who they are so they can become their best.
When I was a kid, my dad would get us a candy bar to split. When my mom got a candy bar, she had a rule that whoever broke the candy bar in half, the other kid got to pick their side. There is difference, on average, with the way mothers and fathers teach their kids. With the rise of single mothers, micromanagement and collectivism dominate childhood, so people are looking for the self-reliance and independence point of view they would have gotten from a two parent household. This is the actual reason Peterson is popular with men, not because RUclips is mostly men. This is also the reason SJWs are mostly women, genetics.
@@theBear89451 Women have a lot of strengths but they also have a lot of weaknesses, just as men have many weaknesses. The important thing is how the strengths and weaknesses are complimentary and balance one another out.
He is so loved because he tries to be objective and honest and he is empathetic. I'll take advice from him over any genius that is narcissistic and controlling.
Not loved by all. There's no shortage of vitriol and hatred for Peterson from the left. I can't think of anyone who has so shamelessly been slandered as Peterson, without an ounce of substance to their accusations. When I see people call him racist or misogynist I always ask for an example. He literally has hundreds of hours of his unedited lectures on RUclips, from before he was famous. Not to mention all the speaking appearances and interviews he's done since then. And they can never produce a single example. Hating on a person who spends most of their time telling young people to take responsibility for their lives and tell the truth, is despicable.
I lost my beautiful wife and best friend October 1 , 21. I've been listening to Dr Peterson for years and I credit his biblical series, primarily his stories of Noah and the arc for my survival. My flood came and tried to sweep my world away and I was saved by that arc of doctors, nurses, friends,.... my children. Dr Peterson, if you ever read this, please know you helped me realize my arc was there! Selfish, ignorant people despise you and your message because looking in the mirror scares them. You helped me stand up straight! You gave me the ultimate gift of strength that allowed me to hold the hand of my best friend as she crossed that divide to our next life. I count you as a gift in my life Sir. If you ever come to stl, you have a friend here! Godspeed!
@@ArchimedesPie if it is raging around you now, grasp on the truths you have known all your life. They are the foundation. I read back to what I wrote and when. It never gets easier, but more hands than you know grab on and share the load! My hands are here for you.... and so many others!
You know you're in a fallen society when a person who tells people to make their bed, do their chores, and approach life with some degree of intentionality, accountability, and responsibility is vilified-all because people hate being told the truth.
You know your society is declining just by having a man appearing as a hero just for telling grown-up men to do that; would it have been necessary decades ago?
@channell11 Talk about dangerous!! If we start making our beds, do our chores, and live life with intentionality, accountability, and responsibility, that is in opposition to the left.
I firmly believe that Jordan will go down in history as one of the greatest intellectuals of the 21st century, which is also sad because much of what he is saying used to be commonly held truths about people and society
Gonna be pretty funny to watch the children of the haters (the few ones who are able to even start a family) enjoying JP against their parent's will. He's definitely one of those people who are hated (by the morons) but only later will people appreciate the things he's said and see him for what he truly is, possibly long after he's gone.
When I look at great human beings that contributed greatly into a prosperous human society. Ghandi, Martin Luther King and even prophets like Jesus and Mohammed. They all got tremendous amount of "hate" and some eventually got killed. But their wisdom and bravery are still with us to this day. I'm not comparing the persons and achievements. But rather the fact all of them spoke up, and a lot of people wanted to silence them. The truth hurts, and it seems a lot of humans aren't ready to face it.
I shunned responsibility most of my life and left me empty and lonely and yearning for meaning . ,it took me til my late 30's to snap out of it. HalleluYAH !
Wow, your dad's assessment really spoke to me. I think it is dead on. I have been contemplating life and purpose for about ten years, in my forties now, and I think your dad's take is so simple, yet so true. Thank you.
There is so much truth in that statement it is tangible. Having learned that first hand I wish I wouldn't have wasted my earlier years. And I'm only in my mid Twenties! Everyone always asks you what you want to do or what you want to be not realizing that it's a pointless and confusing question to ask a child, be they in elementary or high school. Kids are already searching for so much of themselves, how are they supposed to give a decently true answer to those questions? They don't know enough about the world or themselves yet! The answer is to be a good person, be humble, help others, improve yourself, and take advantage of your sharpest skills to make a living.
I am a woman and consider myself to be a conscious feminist and I LOVE Peterson. I am not against men, I am against weak or abusive men. What we need now more than ever are GOOD men, men like Peterson who have the capacity and courage to speak the truth and stand on principle in the line of fire.
In what delusional universe are you guy living? People who have power use it. Martial arts are designed for defense, there is the whole philosophy behind it. Now you show me a powerful politician or businessman who has power and is not using it for his/her advantage.
He’s right. That’s the concern of the “left”. Being responsible, ethical, moral, strong, controlled & dependable makes a man admirable. I admire that. I want to be like that.
If that's your take away from this, then you weren't listening. He also said that's what the left is *supposed* to be - meaning it is not. Peterson states that things like compassion aren't the only virtue, & relying solely on those things makes a person weak.
Overall he is a positive influence, but he is wrong about somethings and afraid of others. He clearly demonstrated that he does not really know what compassion is in this interview for example. Someone asked him about the influence of Jews and the Israeli lobby and he freaked out and ran away from the question. He said someone who shoots up a school is weak, and that is too easy an answer. It is an answer designed to please, and to make a more complex issue overly simplistic. It reminds me of when leftards say "rape isn't about sex, it's about power." A horse$hit easy answer, designed to please low IQ people so they can say "Ah! That's why."
Mr. Stossel is one of those few good legacy media journalists. I would put him up with Barbara Walters, though I may be remembering the latter through rose-colored glasses. Stossel doesn’t seem like he has an agenda in his interviewing style. He asks “why?” which is what journalists are *SUPPOSED* to do instead of _“sO wHAt YoU’Re saYInG iS…”_

@@freespirit5719 I think you're misunderstanding John Stossel, he's merely trolling the radical leftists and the feminists who usually attach Professor Jordan Peterson in this way. Look at the way he's calm and listening when JP speaks, being polite and never cutting him before he makes his points. He's actually giving JP a chance to dispel some of the accusations made against him because when he goes to interviews with people like Cathy Newman they always cut him off and never allow him to finish his points after asking stupid questions and trying to set traps for the man.
I am a 36 year old woman and mom of five kids. Jordan has been an amazing help in my life for at least 5 years. Before he got famous. Literally helped save my life and family when I was completely lost in betrayal and pain. I thank God for this man regularly.
I've made every generation of my family better with the help of Jordan Peterson. He's an asset to women. I love hearing him talk about his marriage and what that word means.
@@jaimhaas5170 I think it has more to do with different interests and ways of gathering information. RUclips is used most by men. Women are more inclined to read books or watch television shows. I do test a bit more masculine though so might explain my appreciation. On his big 5 I am high in conscientiousness, and very low and agreeability teens. 🤣
@@SquirrellyMom u see right there you are proving that you invest your time wisely...yes women are more in to TV the daytime programs are all living proof of that. It's the most garbage food of the networks being consumed all by women. I still say the fact you found Jordan separates u from most of the riff raff.
I have passed over many videos featuring. Jordan Peterson because I prejudged him as something he's not. I watched this one because I am subscribed to John Stossel. What I experienced here is a man who makes a lot of sense. We need more people like him and more people to be open minded. 😗
Let's just make sure we're not so opened minded that our brains fall out. That seems to be a common occurrence here in America anymore. Hey if it Feels good, do it. I have to admit Jordan Peterson hits the nail on the head as far as I can tell, but it's like this interviewer is exposing to everyone watching he (the interviewer) is "open minded". Being open minded by terms of Liberalism is anything goes and accept everything as long as it gratifies sexual urges, greed, lust, anger, rage, and violent vengeance towards anyone who disagrees with the Liberal party, or just repeat themselves over and over again over another's voice like a crazy person or just raise one's voice over another, or just make claims of bigotry, sexism and racism. They seem to think by making these claims towards someone who disagrees with them is an automatic victory after the accusation is made, but rather to someone who's brain hasn't fallen from their skulls from being "open minded" we can see the psychosis of the person behaving like a young teenager or again.... a crazy person. I've come to notice teenagers and crazy people seem to follow the same pattern which is interesting to say the least. To me a crazy person is one who is immature and never grows up, or of course has a mental problem. Of course I could go on all day about puberty, hormones and life changes in the body and mind during that process but it seems some never leave that stage of development and are cursed to be psychotic and narcissistic. And yes I am saying that teenagers fit that bill. We all go through that stage in life, however some just remain in that stage stagnant and lost in a stage of life that's not meant to remain.
To listen is to learn, To hear is an auditory experience. Here Jordan Peterson elevates the hearing experience into teacher and educator. We are the lucky ones who are raised into this humble genius strata.
Welcome Conny. I got to meet JP before he published 12 rules for life and went on his first book tour. The experience was hard to put into words, I was humbled and beyond impressed with his humility, his passion, his empathy and his desire to help relieve the suffering of the vulnerable and the dispossessed. He appears to be a genuinely beautiful soul who cares so much for humanity, it causes him pain and emotional distress. A truly brave man indeed and the hero we need right now.
Unfortunately there is a possibility that he won't. Not when you have this caliber of people shouting so angrily that he is wrong. It will always be construed until accountability is held for those sewing this disparity onto the world
no he is brave... and honest...he dares to do something that many academics don't... criticize other academics as fraud.. it is brave because it weakens the source of his own hierarchy and money ! many academics KNOW that humanity, gender studies and so on are a scientific fraud...but as they don't want people to know how THEIR money is spent..they don't say anything to the point the are eaten alive by radical.. you don't need to be that clever!!! but honest and brave///
Jordan B. Perverson: "my message to the Hungarians: What your prime minister is trying to do is to restore the metaphysical foundation of the Hungarian culture Heil Orbán"
Peterson is one influential philosopher known and living. People need to stop hating and start truly listening to his talks. We all can be better people.
Yes, truly listen to him. The go-to argument of virtually every leftist position is to project a strawman characterization onto their opponent and then argue against that.
It's a shame more like Dr. Peterson aren't out there saying, "to hell with what is said about me on an internet message board, here's the truth". We need more men and women to stand up and fight.
I started listening to his book, "Maps of Meaning" narrated by him and IMHO he has been in training for this time in history for most of his life. As a very young man he was fascinated with Socialism, but early on recognized how performative the "compassion" was. Instead of jumping on any band wagons for a right way to think he seemed to have challenged himself with learning how to use his mind to actually study and think things through. I can attest that in my time in Academia just 4 years ago at age 56, 80% of the instruction is geared toward Social Justice and "What" to think rather than how to engage the mind with the material. I recieved a disciplinary action for class disruption by sending a private email to the instructor questioning her personal bias in lectures..... in an Argumentation and Debate course. As I found myself immersed in so much crazy I countered the gas lighting primarily with Professor Peterson and James Lindsay. Those who were specifically able to think through and speak about how we got here and where here is.
@@ImHandlingIt The video of Brets experience and the unfolding of the Diversity Inclusion Equity canoe expedition Evergreen was lost on, really validated my own sense of concern for the indoctrination level of Academia. None of my peers back those few years now, had any idea what I was talking about.
These Gentlemen are Gems, imagine the difference in this world if we all behaved according to the examples of personal responsibility and integrity! Thank you John Stossel and Jordan Peterson!
@Spring I have disagreed with him 'one time. 'maybe it's because he follows a certain set of values. based on evidence, instead of emotion, facts instead of feelings, and research instead of groupthink, natural immunity to willful blindness
@Spring So, 'two wrongs' makes you the (WINNER) lol. This isn't a contest It's a debate on the betterment of humans. I feel like going out 3 times a week. and partying. sleeping, with beautiful, brilliant women. When I'm driving, I feel like smashing other vehicles' operated by narcissistic or entitled people. I feel like teaching people who think their ideology and political policies will save the world. The truth, they're dangerous and Incredibly irresponsible I feel like taking a nap on your couch.
@Spring “and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” -2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
@Spring “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” -Isaiah 5:20
Stossell did an amazing job interviewing him. He was effective at playing the devils advocate without being adversarial. As a result the guest was able to clearly communicate his answers to completion rather than being cut off with another trying to unsettle him. I've grown tired of combative interviewers
I’ve only listened to Jordan Peterson for the first time in the last month, I was expecting to hear lots of inflammatory things based on my perception of him from reading other material. Much to my surprise everything I’ve heard so far is just common sense.
@Dizzy Gear It's amazing that people call it "common sense," because it's so rare (at least in our epoch of history), but thanks to Jordan Peterson people's knowledge of it is growing.
@@j.jasonwentworth723 I'm trying to understand how to formulate what you guys are saying myself. I suspect JP is in the process of articulating what we all know in our hearts as true. The trouble is that truth hurts and we all look to different ideologies to see if we can change the reality for the better. I see that as a good thing overall because it's a worthy goal to make life better. It's extremely difficult though and in the short term a lot of those ideas that seem good have terrible consequences over time. What I think Jordan is doing is bringing the conversation to a more respectable level. To the people who are trying to rationalize ill conceived solutions Peterson is a huge threat. Realistically if you've spent your lifetime trying to eliminate what you see as inequality in the pay gap for instance you're not going to like expanding your empathy to those you think are the enemy. I have no doubt sexism plays a role but as Peterson suggests there's a line the left crosses that goes too far. He's drawn it at "equality of outcome" and makes a very good case for why that is. I think the bigger problem might be that "equality of opportunity" can get very close to looking like it's pushing towards the equality of outcome ideal. As soon as we start thinking in terms of groups it then corrupts to the core. I don't know how to escape the rot other than to follow the idea of thinking in terms of individual sovereignty and value the careful discipline of speaking the truth to the best of my ability.
Exactly! It's quite shocking. I have heard Jordan say something like this before (and I am slightly paraphrasing) but "There is nothing more dangerous than a person who puts their life together." Hence the "clean your room." And when you start to put your life together (see his talk with Curator of the Toronto Art Museum on the "Psychology of Creativity.") you begin to see why beauty is shocking, because it illuminates all the things that are ugly in ourselves and highlights our own insecurities. And sometimes that insecurity is a reminder of something we need to work on. For me, after listening to his talks, I knew I needed to get sober. Almost 2 years sober now. Take care, Dan!
I'm curious where on the internet to go to find these inflammatory things. I'd like to have a discussion with the marxist feminist types. Serious inquiry, I'm not being a troll, I think it's important to have these discussions.
John Stossel does such an amazing job playing devil's advocate. He knows all the right questions to ask and how to press them. Doesn't ask softball questions, but isn't hyper aggressive about them either. Asks the question, hears the response, presents the argument, hears the response, moves on. Pipe dream to wish all journalists were like this.
Yes, thats rare because other people have an agenda and have no intellectual curiosity. Stossel genuinely wants to know. While other so called journalists just want to make Peterson look bad.
It's impossible to underestimate the depths people can sink to when they are 100% self-righteous and 0% self-aware. I can easily imagine those protesters bashing the stained glass windows of a church and shouting to burn it down, posting the video online, and thinking with total certainty that everyone will see them as heroes.
Yeah I noticed that about him. It's not necessarily his point of view it's the critical rebuttals people object with and peterson clearly and calmly articulates himself.
Literally, I went from 30 and barely living in my own apartment to owning a home and making six digits and 60% at least is credited to Dr Peterson. Thank God for him and his courage. God bless you for your selflessness. You’ve helped more people than you’ll ever know. Some idiots wonder why he cries alot, when you’re changing lives on such a deep level and large scale?l, how could you not feel that weight/blessing constantly.
Similar to the statement on violence. It's one thing to cry because you are weak, it's quite another to take on more responsibility and not hide that aspect of your character because it's a perfectly rational response to your depth of understanding and sadness regarding a topic.
Sick Old Jordan Peterson kissing the Orbanus for 50 million HUF: "my message to Hungarians: Do not rebel against your Führer! What your prime minister is trying to do is to restore the metaphysical foundation of the dirty-white Hungarian race"
let me put that into perspective.. it is the lesson my Grand father and father taught me.. "Never start a fight. But be the one to finish it". Which means what Jordan said. Be able to hurt others, but use it as a last resort. Yes, its like many gun owners and like what they taught us in the military. Which is why veterans pray for peace. They know the price that will be paid if peace fails.
@@westmibaddrivers2573I was raised the same way. ... Remember, there are many ways to hurt. ...political, reputation, legally, economically, scientific debate,...all of which should remain 'sheathed' until all negotiations are exhausted. It doesn't have to be physical injury.

Big shout to to the GOAT Stossel for pulling it out of him with his brilliant line of questioning. Loving the interview so far
Great comment. People usually don't congratulate an interviewer. But, you were exactly right about Stossel. He did a wonderful job in allowing JP to extenuate his thoughts and principles. Thanks
It's scary that you find value in this double speak. Making your bed every morning is pointless. Eat your damn vegetables and avoid sugar. Mr. Meatsweats failed his wife.
I love the oxymoron of being a conservative atheist. I'm proud to have a shirt that reads "Real Men Love Nietzsche," obviously poking fun at the "real men love jesus" stickers/shirts etc .. poor guy tortured us with his words and inner agony yet was inarguably a depressed and revered genius
I love that John is giving him questions that the woke society would impose on him, and he answers accordingly. This is a good interview. Thank you, John!
@@Adrian_Estando God forbid eh!..🤷🏼♀️…It feels to me, like an intelligent exchange of ideas is impossible for them. He’s on to them, & they know it! Why else would they attempt to shut him up? ..✌🏼🇨🇦
Because it pushes up upon Marxist nonsense that many of us have been increasingly and uncritically spoonfed by public education, media and entertainment for two generations. Cognitive dissonance is the negative reaction one can have when they come in contact with facts and arguments which challenge those deeply held beliefs. It makes people double down or seek to reinforce their beliefs-even those held for poor reasons.
I don't think that's always the case. A bunch of them will be the type that feel smug about standing up for 'the downtrodden'. They puff up their egos by attacking people they deem to be 'oppressors', not realising that they're doing the oppressing.
Except the Military-Industrial complex evil, cause even though Stossel pretended in that last video to be against the MIC, he still has that "support the troops" mentality. Truth is there is no draft anymore and we wouldn't of spent TRILLIONS on useless wars if we didn't have people volunteering to fight them. The wars we aged are on the Conservative/Right side of the USA house, they have always been the pro-military side. Dr. P NEVER talks about the bad of that, the effect war has on Men. In fact he praises the MIC's Phycology tests as he references them in his lectures positively. I always wanted to ask Dr. P, How do you go to War with a tactic (War on Terror) and do you think the pendulum should swing over to a society where men join the military for "purpose" and "shared sacrifice" and my FAV I would here in the military alot "They died fighting for the person next to them". I think we also need to warn against going too hard the other way.

I appreciate Peterson's voice, but also Stossel's interviewing skills. Wow, he really pushed Peterson, I almost forgot what a real interview looks like.
He isn't up to pushing Peterson, not even starting to be there. And interviewer just usually makes agreeable noises, few have the ability to be more, or are allowed to do more. Mr Pererson has MANY years of addressing peoples conceptions, truth is the only answer to this. So he is a truthsayer, a guide to those who seek truth, and an advocate of truth, and as so, a lover of all peoples.
Peterson's nihilistic optimism and Stossel's genuine journalistic integrity reignites a dying hope in humanity for me, honestly. This interview in particular is so damn powerful
Ahem. "Nihilistic optimism?" Nihilism: the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless. Does that sound like optimism? Does that sound like Peterson? Did a spell checker get you somehow? Heh heh. I have always wondered why there are not more solipsists.
@@puppetsock Nihilism is not the one sentence google definition of it. It is an umbrella term for many philosophies, which take entire books to flesh out. One of those is existential nihilism, which is what most people refer to when talking about nihilism outside of a philosophy classroom. Existential nihilism is the belief that life is inherently meaningless (not necessarily that there are no moral principles), which Peterson in this interview all but confirms is his view. That is why he spends so much time talking about how to give our lives meaning, the inference there is they don't have meaning to start with. Optimistic, meaning he doesn't think that being meaningless is necessarily bad. Which is what he argues. So, what's the issue?
Did you and I watch an entirely different video just now? "Stossel's genuine journalistic integrity"? Is Stossel an example of what a college educated Journalist is supposed to be? Our culture and our society is in a great deal of trouble if that is true.
Not to take anything away from Dr. Peterson, but could we take a moment to appreciate what a national treasure John Stossel is? This is a masterclass in how to conduct an interview. He's neither sycophantic nor needlessly confrontational; he merely creates a space to bring out the person he's interviewing. Well done.
What I like about Stossel is that he makes arguments for those he disagrees with, without strawmanning them, and what I like about Peterson is that he answers Stossel's argument completely seriously.
@@Maxq1 Definetly positivly challenging, Stossle can very easily get into a-hole mode but generally playing devils advocate for viewers to get the whole picture.
@@mhtyler Heartily agreed. Another reason why John Stossel does that (asks questions from the point of view of those who disagree with the person he's interviewing [not only Jordan Peterson] is that it introduces the person, and his or her opinions and positions, to people who may know nothing, or little, about the person being interviewed), while simultaneously doing the same for the interviewee's detractors (as regards why they disagree so strongly with the interviewee). It is a quicker, and more memorable, way to impart information about both sides.
I'm an average guy. But I thought I was nothing. Mr.Peterson makes me take responsibility for my thoughts and actions. Makes me think deeply. Much love.
Jordan Peterson has taught me more about being a good human than anyone else in my life, I met my dad twice and I'm 38. Not having a father growing up changes you, without his words and insight I would probably be dead or in jail.
Both of these men are absolutely brilliant at what they do. This perhaps the best 1 on 1 interview I've ever heard with Peterson. Stossel plays a tremendous devil's advocate, and keeps the conversation grounded in a way such that the audience is never left behind. This is one of the clearest and most concise presentations of JBP's general stances that I've heard, and that's after many hours of listening/reading to his content. Bravo.
Peterson is the first person I have heard use MEEK properly ,that word MEEK sure has been misunderstood and even mistranslated through time . Even many so called Pastors and so called Preachers and Teachers have had no real grasp on that word . It was said that Moses was Meek , yet he killed a man and buried him in the sand , Meek obviously doesn't mean Weak . YAHUAH {Creator} will settle all Issues concerning mankind in due time ,the lesson is almost over , man has dominated man to his peril {Injury} , can't you all see that every system and every way man has tried under satans system has failed EVERY TIME ! Our Father in the heavens will give the earth to the Meek and righteous ones as an inheritance .There will be a New heavens and a new earth in which righteousness is to dwell and he will wipe every tear from their eyes .HalleluYAH ,amein. P.S. I tend to paraphrase.
From a confused and aimless boy into a responsible reliable man. JP has helped guide me down a better path. The world will remember him a thousand years from now. Thank you for this interview.
At 88 years old, a retired electronic systems engineer, I find you the most interesting and fascinating person of many in my life as well as those providing verbal and written commentary on today's media. Keep it up, sir, I'm "all ears".
I agree, absolutely no need to put that in the title. Common sense is a curse; you & I and too many others have to deal with others who lack it. You can say it's controversial, also a gift at the same time a gdamn curse.
so glad I have common sense in abundance. its hilarious seeing people at work younger than me that struggle with the simplest tasks 🤣 maybe I shouldn't laugh but if I didn't I'd likely cry. 😅
I just knew of him from when I had PTSD after a family member died at the hands of malevolent people and was searching online for some way to feel better. Found some of his videos and they helped more than I could ever have imagined. I had no idea anyone would think he was scandalous, just wise, knowledgeable, and caring. Thanks to Dr. Peterson!
You'd better pray that people would understand dangers of his message. While a lot of what he's saying is practical and harmless, but his ideas of obedience to hierarchy and denying the common good are destructive to society and individuals.
So Jordan Peterson’s opinions are objective and his opponents opinions are subjective. Gee isn’t that convenient. And here I thought all opinions were inherently subjective.
@@ErikDayne opinions are subjective even Jordan’s but there are certain statements that are truth and if one agrees then they speak the truth. There is a thing such as absolute truth and people need to know them .
@@ErikDayne there's no such thing as "your truth" as its subjective, can be ironically untruthful, and absolves one of self-responsibility. Well my truth is that I feel like a 19 year old African American female, you going to deny me of my truth? No one is claiming his opinions are absolute fact, but they are reasonable, logical, and well thought out. If you object to his opinion, state it and why.
@@successandlifestyle i don’t know how to respond cause I don’t fully understand what you mean. Speaking your truth is just having and opinion that you believe to be true to you but is not necessarily the truth. I think it can be discussed but sometimes certain things should not be accepted. It’s like that saying "just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should."
“By dangerous that implies I should be ready to hurt somebody.” “No, you should be capable of it. But that doesn’t mean you should use it.” Beautifully put, competence, strength restrained but ready when appropriately needed. The sword and the sheathe analogy was perfect.
@@ErikDayne You're certainly entitled to that opinion. But that aside, I believe he's referring to strength of character, ability & capability above and beyond physical strength.
@@ErikDayne lots of other ways to be strong besides pickle jar opening strength. Watch a few videos of him repeatedly dismantling debate opponents and tell me that’s not strength.
@@ErikDayne Irrelevant... as long as he has the mental conviction, the character to pull a trigger, or choke somebody to death, when the time comes for him to use "force" to fight for what he believes in, then he is indeed "dangerous".
@@richc6030 Jordan Peterson is basically just referring to the right to self defense. For example, a man that is ready to fight you to death for his right to life, liberty, and property when the time comes, is a "dangerous" man to anyone, simply because they aren't "harmless", or weak. And it takes great character to die for something you believe in, because nobody wants to die.
He’s pretty easy to understand. He’s weak and broken so he punches at women and minorities…cuz that’s what a formidable Man does. Word salad does not make an intellectual.
That is awesome! I feel that parts of my life have improved since first learning about Jordan Peterson. I wish I knew him earlier in his career or knew someone like him 30 years ago. I believe my life would be very different than it is now.
It take strength to be good. I agree in what he says especially about responsibility. This is the most complete and understandable interview. Thanks to the interviewer.
Ah, I love the way Peterson conducts himself. If only more debates were held between the left and right, where everyone used the mannerisms Peterson uses. Edit: I'd like to point out to everyone that the silent majority exists, and what ever crazy shit yall see from the left or right exists on the same side you support, unless you're an independent like me in which case you know that both the left and right have crazies but the majority are silent and moderate. Also, mannerisms is totally fine here and please go look up what the word means. I don't mean Peterson knowledge, but rather the way he conducts himself when facing opposition, where he has manners that make him understanding, willing to listen, and open to differing ideas.

This is how interviews should go. Challenge the interviewee without making them respond defensively. When the interviewee is speaking, let them speak. Then when they are finished, ask questions that help your audience understand, or help the interviewee clarify their point. I never felt like a political agenda or ideology was being pushed by Stossel. Now, I got that feeling from Peterson, but he is there to express his views. I never felt like Peterson was vilified or artificially built up as a god. The process was humanizing and kind. I wish more journalists were at Stossel's level.
Equality is NOT Similarity. Difference does NOT mean Inequality. Hierarchy and Equality are NOT in Contradiction. Equality does not Equal Equity!. Social Justice is Injustice!

My operations manager mentioned Jordan Peterson a handful of times, and I started to wonder what he was all about. Two years later, I feel I've learned so much and I feel I have a real "hero" in my life. I've taken steps to improve myself and pursue my own true happiness. I've hardened myself mentally to deal with the craziness and brutality of life. I've opened my eyes to what society really is. Thank you Jordan Peterson!
I’m an older woman with a college education and loads of job/work experience. I just wanted to add I love Jordan Peterson! He is a voice of reason and a light house for many confused men who would otherwise break in the shores or drown in the waves of despair. My almost 40 yr old son read the 12 Rules and found great wisdom, plus the encouragement he didn’t get from his own father, making him capable of being a better man.
I’m curious, as a woman fan of JP, do you discuss him w your friends?

Old Sick Nazi J Peterson kissing the Orbanus for 50 million HUF: "my message to Hungarians: Do not rebel against your dictator! What your prime minister is trying to do is to restore the metaphysical foundation of the dirty-white Hungarian culture and race"
I have never once watched John Stossel interviews, but I have developed large respect for him in the span of just 30 minutes. THIS is how to do your job, journalists. Ask the questions with the correct manner, if the questions are offensive, deliver it with offense; if it is an irrelevant or even stupid question, deliver it as if you are stupid. Also, never interrupt the interviewee if it is not needed. Love you too Dr. Peterson.
He is a hero to many. Why? Honesty and forthrightness. He probably has more integrity than any other journalist I have ever read or watched. I have seen and read him off and on for decades. He is also very humble. I saw him briefly at an event and he was seemingly very embarrassed by any cheers or attention he received personally.
well look up when he tried to "prove" wrestling was fake lol.... dude pulled some straight up bitch shit on Dr Death David Schultz, as much as i may agree with him
Stossel has been outstanding for many years at asking questions that play devil's advocate to the other side without being outright straw man arguments. Probably ten years ago, I watched his special on the wastefulness of government licenses and certifications. I found it very interesting, but I never thought I'd agree with such rage in the future when my wife has to pay thousands of dollars every year to the FDA to renew certification for her product. They're doing absolutely nothing to justify such a cost, and yet you have no choice but to pay it.
@@seanwickham8905 "They're doing absolutely nothing to justify such a cost, and yet you have no choice but to pay it." That's the little guy subsidizing the big guys. It isn't pay for services, like it is with private transactions. It is simply "revenue". I got into a bit of a tiff about my license for my business, showing the city that they weren't doing ANYTHING at all for the license, just extracting money from me, whether my business earns any or not. Their response? "Yes, that's what they are for. Revenue." If only we all had it so easy. Even thieves have to risk their own wellbeing to take my stuff. Most government employees risk nothing and offer nothing, they just consume.
Pure genius... he sees what should be obvious to everyone, and lays it out there brilliantly. This country needs about 350 million more people like him.
A 100 to 1 dislike ratio for the video the protesters put up. As long as you can line your pockets by scaremongering about the 'woke mobs', it doesn't matter how detached from reality you are. Ridiculous
I sent this to my son and asked him to please watch it my son is 21 I am a single mother and have been for the last 13 years I have listened to this I asked my son to listen to this because this is what I cannot do as a mother I want my boy to be responsible and to recognise responsibility it was important to me that I had a good father for my children and I chose the wrong man on the basis of wanting him to be the man that he could never be I know now that was my fault listening to you helped me recognise what I wanted in a man to be the father of my children thank you
"Be someone who people can count on at your father's funeral" When my father died I was a wreck. Jordan has helped me more than anyone can imagine. God bless what's he is doing
I’m 36 years old now & I found JP when I was 32. I can honestly say that the information I have received from this man changed my entire life. It took some time and some difficult self evaluating but after a year, people were baffled by my perspective, composure, maturation & really just my overall mindset & way of life I have constructed. Now I am to just dead weight in life & my relationships. Meaning & purpose are everything to me. Cultivating my virtues & developing my character was the first step once I had all my BS broken down & shed all my fake characters. Most importantly the character that was always a victim.
"Most importantly the character that was always a victim" Amen to that 🙏🏽 Everything else can be worked on and aligned over time, but it will always fail if you still have that victim mentality.. Congrats on your growth ❤️
If they had harder lives and less spare time to 'find themselves endlessly' they wouldn't have a need for social justice. Life is far too easy for people these days...

Let's see, kiddo. You sent your daughter off to a communist indoctrination center with nothing more than a Boomer-tier platitude that you can find on a fortune cookie. That little one-liner will be in combat with hundreds of hours per year for 4 years. I wonder which will win. You spend your spare time on RUclips while the government raises your kid, and you're just crossing your fingers hoping for the best outcome.

Is there a test for the greatest mind of our time or is it just a compliment? I cannot tell when someone gushes with such praise do they see something or feel something I am missing. Mr Peterson has a quick mind at evaluating questions and his replies are so weighty that it would take most people a month to prepare the same reply but there, I think, many who can compete with his strengths but I am not one of those who could do so. The thing I see in him is the ability to be objective and he is not a attack dog but only raise his voice an octave for enforcing his point if he disagrees with someone with a different view of the situation being discussed.

@@VicesN2Virtues Beginning with myself what non - Devine creature fails to disappoint me sometimes? Okay, besides The Theotokos or non fallen Angels. I'm aware I don't always agree with J. Stossel, for example on legalizing prostitution. But this interview was lovely, credit where credit is due. * interesting pseudonym @Vices N2 Virtues
@Spring how? He literally is telling the exact truth as he sees it from a lifetime of earnest study. But go ahead, tell me what half truths he espouses. I would suggest listening to the whole interview carefully and slowly, then logically deconstructing what he says in a letter. I'm sure he'll read it if it comes to his attention. I'm honestly curious, I've got to know where the half truths are. You sure what you're referring to as half truths aren't just you mistaking your emotional prejudices as such? Because "he's just got to be lying". His reasoning is bulletproof, but go ahead, enlighten us.
@Spring that didn't even make sense. You're off to a great start. (A strong person is also obviously more dangerous than a weak person) but whatever you just said wasn't even coherent like what's your point
"An angry white male" Who desperately strives to improve young men, society, and the experience of being. And succeeds. God bless Jordan Peterson. He's helping me and countless other young men like me change my life.
Amen to that
Agree and good for you! Unfortunately John Stossel is less compelling every time I watch him. But Peterson handles him well.
Imagine being Latino that agrees with Mr Peterson and hearing that it's "angry white male" think.
It's more offensive than you think to hear logic and reason be called what it so clearly is not and to mislable all of us who agree with logic and reason as racist when one is clearly not.
He tries to improve everyone, not just young men.
Have p look u kk uk
This is how a true journalist does an interview. When he plays antagonist it is for the purpose of understanding the person, not to push an agenda. Thank you John for your developed talent and years of hard work!
I am for most of what Jordan Peterson preaches but the interviewer is playing devil's advocate too obviously in his favor that just takes the joy out of watching this video. 6.5/10
An interesting contrast between this interview and the "interview" he has in that clip. The "interviewer" in that clip was about making herself the subject of the discussion, rather than having the interviewee the subject. Nice contrast.
It's called devil's advocate
So you're saying that female journalists/interviewers lack talent and don't work hard? ; - )
agreed.i used to judge/underestimate Stossel,until one day i heard him as a guest on Dennis Millers old radio show, Miller can be a dick at times& snob, tried to show his superior Intellect,making too clever references to keep someone on their toes, etc.,& Stossel would just let one go over his head &say,",sorry, i didn't catch the reference, uh... ," or something & let the dead air hang, very refreshing & it made Miller have to change tac.

This man speaks truth. He is a breath of fresh air and logic. Our nation is clearly in crisis and what we are doing is not working.
I never get tired of Peterson. He is brutally real 'father' that most kids need and needed.
Yes!! I've never thought of it like that, but that's exactly what he is for so many lost and lonely men. He encourages them to be dissatisfied with who they are so they can become their best.
Who cares and is capable of love.
When I was a kid, my dad would get us a candy bar to split. When my mom got a candy bar, she had a rule that whoever broke the candy bar in half, the other kid got to pick their side. There is difference, on average, with the way mothers and fathers teach their kids. With the rise of single mothers, micromanagement and collectivism dominate childhood, so people are looking for the self-reliance and independence point of view they would have gotten from a two parent household. This is the actual reason Peterson is popular with men, not because RUclips is mostly men. This is also the reason SJWs are mostly women, genetics.

@@soakedbearrd Absolutely. Genuine empathy isn't always nice or soft. It is the antithesis to the modern left's performative brand of empathy.
Not loved by all. There's no shortage of vitriol and hatred for Peterson from the left. I can't think of anyone who has so shamelessly been slandered as Peterson, without an ounce of substance to their accusations.
When I see people call him racist or misogynist I always ask for an example. He literally has hundreds of hours of his unedited lectures on RUclips, from before he was famous. Not to mention all the speaking appearances and interviews he's done since then. And they can never produce a single example.
Hating on a person who spends most of their time telling young people to take responsibility for their lives and tell the truth, is despicable.

You know you're in a fallen society when a person who tells people to make their bed, do their chores, and approach life with some degree of intentionality, accountability, and responsibility is vilified-all because people hate being told the truth.

I firmly believe that Jordan will go down in history as one of the greatest intellectuals of the 21st century, which is also sad because much of what he is saying used to be commonly held truths about people and society
Gonna be pretty funny to watch the children of the haters (the few ones who are able to even start a family) enjoying JP against their parent's will. He's definitely one of those people who are hated (by the morons) but only later will people appreciate the things he's said and see him for what he truly is, possibly long after he's gone.
No wonder almost all Dems h8 him
Intellectual ! seriously lmfao
When I look at great human beings that contributed greatly into a prosperous human society. Ghandi, Martin Luther King and even prophets like Jesus and Mohammed. They all got tremendous amount of "hate" and some eventually got killed. But their wisdom and bravery are still with us to this day.

Everyone always asks you what you want to do or what you want to be not realizing that it's a pointless and confusing question to ask a child, be they in elementary or high school.

The answer is to be a good person, be humble, help others, improve yourself, and take advantage of your sharpest skills to make a living.
Letter writing is a lost art . We are losing a way of thinking not just writing.
I am a woman and consider myself to be a conscious feminist and I LOVE Peterson. I am not against men, I am against weak or abusive men. What we need now more than ever are GOOD men, men like Peterson who have the capacity and courage to speak the truth and stand on principle in the line of fire.
Why are you a feminist if you're not against men?
@@MrScialabbaguyThere was nothing wrong with the comment you responded to, so why mock it? It’s bizarre, man.

If you have the will of not using power that you possess is the most virtues act in my opinion.
True!

yes you do
Hell yeah, man.
Everything leftists don't want you to be.
If you possess those characteristics then you have no need to rely on the government/ authority, which means the commies can't control you.
If that's your take away from this, then you weren't listening. He also said that's what the left is *supposed* to be - meaning it is not. Peterson states that things like compassion aren't the only virtue, & relying solely on those things makes a person weak.
This man is a National Treasure. He articulates what so many people know and feel but aren't able to explain for themselves.
INTERNATIONAL Treasure
Not bad for a Canuck.
So true. And the same can be said for Stossel.
Overall he is a positive influence, but he is wrong about somethings and afraid of others. He clearly demonstrated that he does not really know what compassion is in this interview for example. Someone asked him about the influence of Jews and the Israeli lobby and he freaked out and ran away from the question. He said someone who shoots up a school is weak, and that is too easy an answer. It is an answer designed to please, and to make a more complex issue overly simplistic. It reminds me of when leftards say "rape isn't about sex, it's about power." A horse$hit easy answer, designed to please low IQ people so they can say "Ah! That's why."
@@toddberry9455 that's racist
John Stossel has the best interviewing style. He asks questions and then allows descriptive answers uninterrupted.
Mr. Stossel is one of those few good legacy media journalists. I would put him up with Barbara Walters, though I may be remembering the latter through rose-colored glasses.
Stossel doesn’t seem like he has an agenda in his interviewing style. He asks “why?” which is what journalists are *SUPPOSED* to do instead of _“sO wHAt YoU’Re saYInG iS…”_

Look at the way he's calm and listening when JP speaks, being polite and never cutting him before he makes his points. He's actually giving JP a chance to dispel some of the accusations made against him because when he goes to interviews with people like Cathy Newman they always cut him off and never allow him to finish his points after asking stupid questions and trying to set traps for the man.

I've made every generation of my family better with the help of Jordan Peterson. He's an asset to women. I love hearing him talk about his marriage and what that word means.

"no, it's not okay. Particularly to hate anyone, maybe even your enemies."
That quote is the heart of this man, and should be my own life's motto.
I have passed over many videos featuring. Jordan Peterson because I prejudged him as something he's not. I watched this one because I am subscribed to John Stossel. What I experienced here is a man who makes a lot of sense. We need more people like him and more people to be open minded. 😗
Thank you!
Let's just make sure we're not so opened minded that our brains fall out. That seems to be a common occurrence here in America anymore. Hey if it Feels good, do it. I have to admit Jordan Peterson hits the nail on the head as far as I can tell, but it's like this interviewer is exposing to everyone watching he (the interviewer) is "open minded".
Being open minded by terms of Liberalism is anything goes and accept everything as long as it gratifies sexual urges, greed, lust, anger, rage, and violent vengeance towards anyone who disagrees with the Liberal party, or just repeat themselves over and over again over another's voice like a crazy person or just raise one's voice over another, or just make claims of bigotry, sexism and racism. They seem to think by making these claims towards someone who disagrees with them is an automatic victory after the accusation is made, but rather to someone who's brain hasn't fallen from their skulls from being "open minded" we can see the psychosis of the person behaving like a young teenager or again.... a crazy person.
I've come to notice teenagers and crazy people seem to follow the same pattern which is interesting to say the least. To me a crazy person is one who is immature and never grows up, or of course has a mental problem. Of course I could go on all day about puberty, hormones and life changes in the body and mind during that process but it seems some never leave that stage of development and are cursed to be psychotic and narcissistic. And yes I am saying that teenagers fit that bill. We all go through that stage in life, however some just remain in that stage stagnant and lost in a stage of life that's not meant to remain.
To listen is to learn,
To hear is an auditory experience.
Here Jordan Peterson elevates the hearing experience into teacher and educator.
We are the lucky ones who are raised into this humble genius strata.
Welcome Conny. I got to meet JP before he published 12 rules for life and went on his first book tour. The experience was hard to put into words, I was humbled and beyond impressed with his humility, his passion, his empathy and his desire to help relieve the suffering of the vulnerable and the dispossessed. He appears to be a genuinely beautiful soul who cares so much for humanity, it causes him pain and emotional distress. A truly brave man indeed and the hero we need right now.
God bless people,like you, who give conversations and different view points a chance
Proud he’s a fellow Canadian and an absolute gift to mankind. He will go
Down in history as one of the world’s greatest minds
Unfortunately there is a possibility that he won't. Not when you have this caliber of people shouting so angrily that he is wrong.
It will always be construed until accountability is held for those sewing this disparity onto the world
Absolutely agree. Revered and intelligent minds must be praised!
no he is brave... and honest...he dares to do something that many academics don't... criticize other academics as fraud.. it is brave because it weakens the source of his own hierarchy and money ! many academics KNOW that humanity, gender studies and so on are a scientific fraud...but as they don't want people to know how THEIR money is spent..they don't say anything to the point the are eaten alive by radical.. you don't need to be that clever!!! but honest and brave///
Thank you for the precious gift, now could y'all please vote out Trudeau 😘

Not just to his talks. People need to just listen to each other instead of constantly looking for their flaws or an argument to "catch" them out on
Yes, truly listen to him. The go-to argument of virtually every leftist position is to project a strawman characterization onto their opponent and then argue against that.
Most of the left is so indoctrinated, even since birth - that they are permanently trapped in this victim mentality..\
Being better people is racisms.
Really smart dude
It's a shame more like Dr. Peterson aren't out there saying, "to hell with what is said about me on an internet message board, here's the truth". We need more men and women to stand up and fight.
I started listening to his book, "Maps of Meaning" narrated by him and IMHO he has been in training for this time in history for most of his life.
As a very young man he was fascinated with Socialism, but early on recognized how performative the "compassion" was. Instead of jumping on any band wagons for a right way to think he seemed to have challenged himself with learning how to use his mind to actually study and think things through.
I can attest that in my time in Academia just 4 years ago at age 56, 80% of the instruction is geared toward Social Justice and "What" to think rather than how to engage the mind with the material.
I recieved a disciplinary action for class disruption by sending a private email to the instructor questioning her personal bias in lectures..... in an Argumentation and Debate course.
As I found myself immersed in so much crazy I countered the gas lighting primarily with Professor Peterson and James Lindsay. Those who were specifically able to think through and speak about how we got here and where here is.
Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying also top that list.
@@ImHandlingIt The video of Brets experience and the unfolding of the Diversity Inclusion Equity canoe expedition Evergreen was lost on, really validated my own sense of concern for the indoctrination level of Academia. None of my peers back those few years now, had any idea what I was talking about.

Stossell did an amazing job interviewing him. He was effective at playing the devils advocate without being adversarial. As a result the guest was able to clearly communicate his answers to completion rather than being cut off with another trying to unsettle him. I've grown tired of combative interviewers
Mr. James Onions 🧅
the guy's a coward with a mask. He's like a rubber band, stretched or not , hes bland
a planned interview is simply a script,
I’ve only listened to Jordan Peterson for the first time in the last month, I was expecting to hear lots of inflammatory things based on my perception of him from reading other material. Much to my surprise everything I’ve heard so far is just common sense.
@Dizzy Gear It's amazing that people call it "common sense," because it's so rare (at least in our epoch of history), but thanks to Jordan Peterson people's knowledge of it is growing.
@@j.jasonwentworth723 I'm trying to understand how to formulate what you guys are saying myself. I suspect JP is in the process of articulating what we all know in our hearts as true. The trouble is that truth hurts and we all look to different ideologies to see if we can change the reality for the better. I see that as a good thing overall because it's a worthy goal to make life better. It's extremely difficult though and in the short term a lot of those ideas that seem good have terrible consequences over time. What I think Jordan is doing is bringing the conversation to a more respectable level. To the people who are trying to rationalize ill conceived solutions Peterson is a huge threat. Realistically if you've spent your lifetime trying to eliminate what you see as inequality in the pay gap for instance you're not going to like expanding your empathy to those you think are the enemy. I have no doubt sexism plays a role but as Peterson suggests there's a line the left crosses that goes too far. He's drawn it at "equality of outcome" and makes a very good case for why that is. I think the bigger problem might be that "equality of opportunity" can get very close to looking like it's pushing towards the equality of outcome ideal. As soon as we start thinking in terms of groups it then corrupts to the core.
I don't know how to escape the rot other than to follow the idea of thinking in terms of individual sovereignty and value the careful discipline of speaking the truth to the best of my ability.
Exactly! It's quite shocking.
I have heard Jordan say something like this before (and I am slightly paraphrasing) but "There is nothing more dangerous than a person who puts their life together." Hence the "clean your room." And when you start to put your life together (see his talk with Curator of the Toronto Art Museum on the "Psychology of Creativity.") you begin to see why beauty is shocking, because it illuminates all the things that are ugly in ourselves and highlights our own insecurities. And sometimes that insecurity is a reminder of something we need to work on. For me, after listening to his talks, I knew I needed to get sober. Almost 2 years sober now. Take care, Dan!
I'm curious where on the internet to go to find these inflammatory things. I'd like to have a discussion with the marxist feminist types. Serious inquiry, I'm not being a troll, I think it's important to have these discussions.
@@grantfrith9589 the only pay gap is that women make MORE than men when contolling for job choices and time spent at work, read Thomas Sowell!
It's so refreshing to see Jordan Peterson, again. This Man is a treasure and beacon to many. We're glad you're back!
This is before he had the withdrawals from benzos, but he did make his first public speech at a University not long ago. He is feeling much better.
@@nathanallen7596 I hope he stays sober. But the way he went to get sober makes me know he's weak. He preaches what makes him money.

@@marksauck8481 why?
@@mattmattmatt6700 The way you describe it suggests to me you don't know what happened.
John Stossel does such an amazing job playing devil's advocate. He knows all the right questions to ask and how to press them. Doesn't ask softball questions, but isn't hyper aggressive about them either. Asks the question, hears the response, presents the argument, hears the response, moves on. Pipe dream to wish all journalists were like this.
Yes, I grew up watching him on 60 seconds, journalism has taken a dive since the Obama Administration.
Yes, thats rare because other people have an agenda and have no intellectual curiosity. Stossel genuinely wants to know. While other so called journalists just want to make Peterson look bad.
It's impossible to underestimate the depths people can sink to when they are 100% self-righteous and 0% self-aware. I can easily imagine those protesters bashing the stained glass windows of a church and shouting to burn it down, posting the video online, and thinking with total certainty that everyone will see them as heroes.
You do know the Nazi's actually did that? Burn down a church with people inside.
Excellent interview John. Your devil's advocate style lends itself well to getting a great talk from Jordan P.
Phil Donahue had a similar interview style. His interviews of Milton Friedman are great stuff.
What always amazes me about Jordan is how calm and completely reasonable he remains under assault from the left. That inspires me to be better!
Yeah I noticed that about him. It's not necessarily his point of view it's the critical rebuttals people object with and peterson clearly and calmly articulates himself.
@@joyfulnoise2477 I think JP is more calm on the outside than in, but he harnesses that energy to good advantage.
@@andybonneau9209 Could be, which is even more impressive to me!
Literally, I went from 30 and barely living in my own apartment to owning a home and making six digits and 60% at least is credited to Dr Peterson. Thank God for him and his courage. God bless you for your selflessness. You’ve helped more people than you’ll ever know. Some idiots wonder why he cries alot, when you’re changing lives on such a deep level and large scale?l, how could you not feel that weight/blessing constantly.
The irony of these people fighting the patriarch trying to make he look bad because he cries too much is amazing
Similar to the statement on violence. It's one thing to cry because you are weak, it's quite another to take on more responsibility and not hide that aspect of your character because it's a perfectly rational response to your depth of understanding and sadness regarding a topic.
Share your experience please. I enjoy learning from the lives and struggles of others. What steps did you take to get there?

Because it pushes up upon Marxist nonsense that many of us have been increasingly and uncritically spoonfed by public education, media and entertainment for two generations.

Although Peterson is no Libertarian and at times wants government intervention.
Except the Military-Industrial complex evil, cause even though Stossel pretended in that last video to be against the MIC, he still has that "support the troops" mentality. Truth is there is no draft anymore and we wouldn't of spent TRILLIONS on useless wars if we didn't have people volunteering to fight them. The wars we aged are on the Conservative/Right side of the USA house, they have always been the pro-military side. Dr. P NEVER talks about the bad of that, the effect war has on Men. In fact he praises the MIC's Phycology tests as he references them in his lectures positively. I always wanted to ask Dr. P, How do you go to War with a tactic (War on Terror) and do you think the pendulum should swing over to a society where men join the military for "purpose" and "shared sacrifice" and my FAV I would here in the military alot "They died fighting for the person next to them". I think we also need to warn against going too hard the other way.

I appreciate Peterson's voice, but also Stossel's interviewing skills. Wow, he really pushed Peterson, I almost forgot what a real interview looks like.
He isn't up to pushing Peterson, not even starting to be there. And interviewer just usually makes agreeable noises, few have the ability to be more, or are allowed to do more.

So he is a truthsayer, a guide to those who seek truth, and an advocate of truth, and as so, a lover of all peoples.
Check out Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson
Peterson's nihilistic optimism and Stossel's genuine journalistic integrity reignites a dying hope in humanity for me, honestly. This interview in particular is so damn powerful
I second the props to Stossel. He played a fantastic neutral devil's advocate here
Ahem. "Nihilistic optimism?" Nihilism: the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless. Does that sound like optimism? Does that sound like Peterson? Did a spell checker get you somehow?
Heh heh. I have always wondered why there are not more solipsists.
@@puppetsock Nihilism is not the one sentence google definition of it. It is an umbrella term for many philosophies, which take entire books to flesh out. One of those is existential nihilism, which is what most people refer to when talking about nihilism outside of a philosophy classroom. Existential nihilism is the belief that life is inherently meaningless (not necessarily that there are no moral principles), which Peterson in this interview all but confirms is his view. That is why he spends so much time talking about how to give our lives meaning, the inference there is they don't have meaning to start with. Optimistic, meaning he doesn't think that being meaningless is necessarily bad. Which is what he argues. So, what's the issue?
@@jac1968 huh... He is the opposite of nihilistic. You're using this word wrong, period.
Did you and I watch an entirely different video just now? "Stossel's genuine journalistic integrity"? Is Stossel an example of what a college educated Journalist is supposed to be?
Our culture and our society is in a great deal of trouble if that is true.
Not to take anything away from Dr. Peterson, but could we take a moment to appreciate what a national treasure John Stossel is? This is a masterclass in how to conduct an interview. He's neither sycophantic nor needlessly confrontational; he merely creates a space to bring out the person he's interviewing. Well done.
Totally disagree with you. Stossel comes across as dismissive and controlling. Only host I really dislike.
@Rob...good call :)
He's the complete opposite of Cathy Newman and praise the Lord for that.
He does have a way to play both sides to ask questions and play devil's advocate.
What I like about Stossel is that he makes arguments for those he disagrees with, without strawmanning them, and what I like about Peterson is that he answers Stossel's argument completely seriously.
Very well put. Wish I'd said that
@@Maxq1 Definetly positivly challenging, Stossle can very easily get into a-hole mode but generally playing devils advocate for viewers to get the whole picture.
Stossel is the most ridiculous example of making strawmans.
@@mhtyler Heartily agreed. Another reason why John Stossel does that (asks questions from the point of view of those who disagree with the person he's interviewing [not only Jordan Peterson] is that it introduces the person, and his or her opinions and positions, to people who may know nothing, or little, about the person being interviewed), while simultaneously doing the same for the interviewee's detractors (as regards why they disagree so strongly with the interviewee). It is a quicker, and more memorable, way to impart information about both sides.
There is a term for that. Its called steelmanning.

For example, a man that is ready to fight you to death for his right to life, liberty, and property when the time comes, is a "dangerous" man to anyone, simply because they aren't "harmless", or weak. And it takes great character to die for something you believe in, because nobody wants to die.

@@TheNewAeon2012 no, the correct parallel would be red army vs white army or the cristeros war in mexico. The opressive ideological groups agains normal people.
@@testicletanning4453 From our perspective yes, they are on the same side, but their internal clash has actully dominated the scene for some time, hopefully never to happen again.
This is how interviews should go. Challenge the interviewee without making them respond defensively. When the interviewee is speaking, let them speak. Then when they are finished, ask questions that help your audience understand, or help the interviewee clarify their point.
I never felt like a political agenda or ideology was being pushed by Stossel. Now, I got that feeling from Peterson, but he is there to express his views. I never felt like Peterson was vilified or artificially built up as a god. The process was humanizing and kind.
I wish more journalists were at Stossel's level.
I wish many journalists had morals and we're at at 15 year olds level. Sadly that doesn't seem be the case

Thank you for your courage.

So thank you 😊 and God Bless you
My operations manager mentioned Jordan Peterson a handful of times, and I started to wonder what he was all about. Two years later, I feel I've learned so much and I feel I have a real "hero" in my life. I've taken steps to improve myself and pursue my own true happiness. I've hardened myself mentally to deal with the craziness and brutality of life. I've opened my eyes to what society really is. Thank you Jordan Peterson!
And can you believe there are people that actually want to cancel this man?
I also use the word 'hero' when I think of JP
Have you thanked your (former) operations manager?
Thank you for your service
I you think he's a hero, you should actually see in in Spandex. He's spendid.
@@Sol_Badguy_GG "I you think..." ?
I’m an older woman with a college education and loads of job/work experience. I just wanted to add I love Jordan Peterson! He is a voice of reason and a light house for many confused men who would otherwise break in the shores or drown in the waves of despair.
My almost 40 yr old son read the 12 Rules and found great wisdom, plus the encouragement he didn’t get from his own father, making him capable of being a better man.
Ahh, a smart wise woman! Too bad they all didn’t have that wisdom.
I’m curious, as a woman fan of JP, do you discuss him w your friends? I’m about your age, & am having a particularly difficult time w friends & family, admittedly mostly women, 🤷🏼♀️, who think he’s nothing more than a bully! 🤷🏼♀️ I don’t get it! I just don’t get it! These are not uneducated women. Maybe that’s the problem!..🤔 His commentary, is a simple statement of facts! Thanks!..Ont Canada…✌🏼🇨🇦
These two are classy gentlemen and are making the world a better place.
WAY better.
Jordan is yes. Interviewer should learn to be less biased
@@lachlanhawkins3475 He's playing devils advocate and applying counterpoints, otherwise, the viewer would have nothing to learn/think critically about. If it was all mutual agreements it would seem like a TMZ interviewer in awe of a movie star.
@@lachlanhawkins3475 Your level of reading people is so low that paradoxicaly the biased is you.
Great job John! Jordan is a breath of fresh air in this upside down world we now live in.
Jordan Peterson = Hero. I have struggled all my life and still am one way or another, but JP has given me the insight needed to get through the ups and downs of this roller-coaster we call day to day life. Thank you Jordan Peterson. God bless you and your family. Keep fighting the good fight. God is in your corner!!!
Old Sick Nazi J Peterson kissing the Orbanus for 50 million HUF:
"my message to Hungarians:
Do not rebel against your dictator! What your prime minister is trying to do is to restore the metaphysical foundation of the dirty-white Hungarian culture and race"
His kind of advice has been lost in the modern world . Pure common sense !
I have never once watched John Stossel interviews, but I have developed large respect for him in the span of just 30 minutes. THIS is how to do your job, journalists. Ask the questions with the correct manner, if the questions are offensive, deliver it with offense; if it is an irrelevant or even stupid question, deliver it as if you are stupid. Also, never interrupt the interviewee if it is not needed. Love you too Dr. Peterson.
Stossel is like Columbo. I’d be surprised if Stossel did not grow up on Columbo.
He is a hero to many. Why? Honesty and forthrightness. He probably has more integrity than any other journalist I have ever read or watched. I have seen and read him off and on for decades. He is also very humble. I saw him briefly at an event and he was seemingly very embarrassed by any cheers or attention he received personally.
well look up when he tried to "prove" wrestling was fake lol.... dude pulled some straight up bitch shit on Dr Death David Schultz, as much as i may agree with him
Stossel has been outstanding for many years at asking questions that play devil's advocate to the other side without being outright straw man arguments. Probably ten years ago, I watched his special on the wastefulness of government licenses and certifications. I found it very interesting, but I never thought I'd agree with such rage in the future when my wife has to pay thousands of dollars every year to the FDA to renew certification for her product. They're doing absolutely nothing to justify such a cost, and yet you have no choice but to pay it.
@@seanwickham8905 "They're doing absolutely nothing to justify such a cost, and yet you have no choice but to pay it."
That's the little guy subsidizing the big guys. It isn't pay for services, like it is with private transactions. It is simply "revenue". I got into a bit of a tiff about my license for my business, showing the city that they weren't doing ANYTHING at all for the license, just extracting money from me, whether my business earns any or not. Their response? "Yes, that's what they are for. Revenue."
If only we all had it so easy. Even thieves have to risk their own wellbeing to take my stuff. Most government employees risk nothing and offer nothing, they just consume.
Pure genius... he sees what should be obvious to everyone, and lays it out there brilliantly. This country needs about 350 million more people like him.
I second the Peterson ethno-state.
That said, Jordan Peterson is not an American citizen, and in fact that may be helpful as he is an outside observer
lobsters everywhere 😂
Wouldn’t that be great?
Mr. Peterson is so right - I just love how honest and articulate he is. We desperately need more people like him.
Nobody can play devil’s advocate as well as John. At least with a straight face.
He got punched in the face once. Right on camera
@@treece1 link it
@@tannerrich2388 let me try time sec
Maybe he has a straight face because he's right.
Stossell is one of the most honest journalists that are out there. He asks great tough questions for anybody.
I can listen to this guy for days honestly his Insight is incredible!
Facts he's a genius

I sent this to my son and asked him to please watch it my son is 21 I am a single mother and have been for the last 13 years I have listened to this I asked my son to listen to this because this is what I cannot do as a mother I want my boy to be responsible and to recognise responsibility it was important to me that I had a good father for my children and I chose the wrong man on the basis of wanting him to be the man that he could never be I know now that was my fault listening to you helped me recognise what I wanted in a man to be the father of my children thank you
Thank you Jordan for speaking truth. Love you. God bless your work, you and your family
"Be someone who people can count on at your father's funeral"
When my father died I was a wreck. Jordan has helped me more than anyone can imagine. God bless what's he is doing
Same with my mother when I lost her suddenly. I'm ashamed that I was unable to basically function then.

@@SK-ut6tw there's nothing to be ashamed of.
@@SK-ut6tw Don't be ashamed, that only tells me you loved her a lot.
I’m 36 years old now & I found JP when I was 32. I can honestly say that the information I have received from this man changed my entire life. It took some time and some difficult self evaluating but after a year, people were baffled by my perspective, composure, maturation & really just my overall mindset & way of life I have constructed. Now I am to just dead weight in life & my relationships. Meaning & purpose are everything to me. Cultivating my virtues & developing my character was the first step once I had all my BS broken down & shed all my fake characters. Most importantly the character that was always a victim.
That last sentence is so important, stay strong @WaylonWalker
Very good.
So glad to hear this.
"Most importantly the character that was always a victim" Amen to that 🙏🏽 Everything else can be worked on and aligned over time, but it will always fail if you still have that victim mentality.. Congrats on your growth ❤️
39 here, going through the same thing. It amazes me how many people in your life you can shed just by trying to pursue responsibility
This guy is fantastic. I am a woman I love and agree with everything he said. Incredible man
Jordan Peterson is on fire in this interview. John Stossel did a fantastic job playing devil's advocate. These two play off each other perfectly.
Jordan Peterson offers people an intelligent rebuttal against the social justice warlords who are horribly ignorant and crippled emotionally.
Awesome post! Awesomeness upon awesome
We live in Allison in wonderland world where everything is just backwards
Such clarity of thought & powerful perspectives on the nonsense preached by the Leftist / Communist cowards that are in the lime light for a minute
If they had harder lives and less spare time to 'find themselves endlessly' they wouldn't have a need for social justice. Life is far too easy for people these days...
I told my daughter as she went off to college that when things get tough (and they will) to remember this one rule - no one owes you a thing. Take responsibility and work through whatever stands in your way. So far, so good..
Let's see, kiddo. You sent your daughter off to a communist indoctrination center with nothing more than a Boomer-tier platitude that you can find on a fortune cookie. That little one-liner will be in combat with hundreds of hours per year for 4 years. I wonder which will win.
You spend your spare time on RUclips while the government raises your kid, and you're just crossing your fingers hoping for the best outcome.
That's what my parents taught me too, and I really appreciate it.
That is true sometimes but your daughter should also know some things and which that in deed are owed to her
good for u Steve bc all I see and hear is entitlement from that generation and it makes me sick to even try to speak to them. Your daughter will THRIVE while the others will never amount to much
Good on ya, mate!

@@TransAllyKpopGroiper yes he is, one of the greatest minds of our time
Is there a test for the greatest mind of our time or is it just a compliment? I cannot tell when someone gushes with such praise do they see something or feel something I am missing. Mr Peterson has a quick mind at evaluating questions and his replies are so weighty that it would take most people a month to prepare the same reply but there, I think, many who can compete with his strengths but I am not one of those who could do so. The thing I see in him is the ability to be objective and he is not a attack dog but only raise his voice an octave for enforcing his point if he disagrees with someone with a different view of the situation being discussed.
Peterson helped me accept depression and insecurity, now I'm trying to grow up and build something regardless of the social dramas of today.
You accepted depression? Holy shit the psyop is working. You're not supposed to accept it, you're meant to fight it and beat it. Accepting it is allowing it to fester and grow.

I concur , stossel is the best interviewer I have ever seen .
@@VicesN2Virtues
Beginning with myself what non - Devine creature fails to disappoint me sometimes? Okay, besides The Theotokos or non fallen Angels.
I'm aware I don't always agree with J. Stossel, for example on legalizing prostitution.
But this interview was lovely, credit where credit is due.
* interesting pseudonym @Vices N2 Virtues
No kidding, right?
@Spring how? He literally is telling the exact truth as he sees it from a lifetime of earnest study. But go ahead, tell me what half truths he espouses.
I would suggest listening to the whole interview carefully and slowly, then logically deconstructing what he says in a letter. I'm sure he'll read it if it comes to his attention.
I'm honestly curious, I've got to know where the half truths are. You sure what you're referring to as half truths aren't just you mistaking your emotional prejudices as such? Because "he's just got to be lying".
His reasoning is bulletproof, but go ahead, enlighten us.
@Spring that didn't even make sense. You're off to a great start. (A strong person is also obviously more dangerous than a weak person) but whatever you just said wasn't even coherent like what's your point
"You have to be powerful, formidable and peaceful... in *that* order."
I love this man.
Both are straight to the point. No agenda just reasonable questions. I love it.
I so miss journalism like this! It’s just crazy how fast it changed and got so unbelievably dishonest! Bring back honest journalism!
