There is a difference between socialism and dictatorship like socialism is complex as having good health care means less payments on medical and can afford other things like being able to pay their higher taxes because of the high price of health in USA the taxes can be too high and can end people in poverty having the government pay for something means that the price can be lower than privatized things even with the increasing tax
I'm sick of socialism. Marxist socialism National socialist Black National socialism Corpo-socialism Techno-socialism I can't stand any of it. I just want to be left alone. I'm wise on these greedy misanthropic scumbags pretending they're just doing what's best for me.
Ask anyone who wants help the poor wether they prefer abolishing taxes for the poor or massive taxation on the rich. Their reply is the answer to wich type they are.
@pleaseenteranamelol711 The point of the quote is that the Left pretends to want to help the poor but actually don't do that as much as hating the rich (which is a futile endeavor). Those that actually help the poor are not waiting on the rich to fix poor people's problems.
There an answer to this and it's called having a reasonable relationship with religion. Some of the teaching about dealing with the suffering of life, Meaning of life though family/community/etc. All that stuff seems sourly lacking in the Godless world today that produces nothing but nihilism and following one's base needs for the here and now
@@televized1781 Yep. I found it strange that nietzsche thought just because he stopped believing in a supernatural God that he needed to throw away all of religion and spiritualism. It makes for sick humans. Look at China after the Cultural Revolution.
I appreciate your solution to this. Personally, I've never been religious, both of my parents grew up in religious families but renounced religion when they married and moved off together. But they didn't abandon the most important teachings of Christianity. For that, I am grateful. I'm also grateful that they didn't do the opposite and smother me with overbearing religious nonsense instead of teaching actual important lessons. Reasonableness is something that I fear is either lost or very far into the process of being lost.
one of my favorite anime quotes is "to live is to fight" and boy is that relevant. Life is suffering, but you have the ability to combat it, and I personally think that's what our role as a human is - to be, and however you interpret that is also a key part in being human.
The thing I hate the most about it is how much it runs off and taints everything in our culture. Even if you're fully aware of what they're doing and reject all of their ideas, it's still very difficult not to catch their contagious negativity.
I'm glad that Marx's dad rebuked him so firmly. It makes me feel good that even good people can raise bad folks, and that good ideas remain in the modern era too.
His dad should have cut him off The problem i have with his dad is that he didn’t let Marx fend for himself, instead he exclaimed his disappointment but kept sending him money. Today those parents exist and because they don’t have the strength to tell their children no then society has to deal with them when they come out of college. Honestly if it were me I’d let them struggle on their own and if socialism is really as great as they say then they will make it alone
Imagine thinking "no act against my enemies is wrong" and unironically thinking you're the good guy because you just cannot comprehend people having other values.
but acting against your enemies until there is only you is how you win ultimately and that winning and the ultimate peace it brings due to the state of having no opposition towards your designs and values is worth it. it is just pure logic.
That quote from Marx's father really hit me. It really is a dad wondering where things went wrong and desperately trying to make sense of his son's radicalization. Something that I'm sure many parents know all too well these days.
It's a textbook example. of hard men creating good times, good times creating weak men, and weak men creating hard times. Parents are instinctively wired to want to provide a better life for their kids than they had. What they often don't realize is by coddling their children against life's harshness they are preventing them from developing the same skillsets and psychological body armor needed to be successful. Instead they become entitled brats, easily swayed to any attempt to feel "righteous" and "support a cause" that they will literally support anything if it "sounds good".
Its telling of how his father bemoans Marx's wastefulness and how much he's spending and yet he still grants his request for the 160 talers. If he was wondering where things went wrong, that would have been a good place to start.
I don't remember what documentary I was watching now, but I watched one that talked about Marx and the writing of the Communist Manifesto, and his family, and wow, it was a mess. I actually see a lot of Vaush in Marx - perhaps unsurprisingly. (I'm not a Vaush fan - I've just seen him through other people who I watch.) He was clearly angry, basically incapable of running his own life, and entirely focused on his ideology, to the entire detriment of literally everyone around him. I searched my YT history hoping it was in there, but I didn't find it - It's possible it was on Netflix, Hulu, or Acorn, too. I don't THINK it was the DW "Who Was Karl Marx" one at YT, though, because the one I saw pretty much stayed in the past and didn't talk about how communism was applied in other countries - just about him, his family, and the writing of the book. (Which took his entire life, was still basically unfinished, and Engles put together after Marx's death.)
@@zeogold if you watch content from the Lotus Eaters, there is an episode regarding an American “Bugwoman” versus a Canadian Trad Housewife. Watch that for more context.

@@your_waifu_hates_you Honestly, i kinda wish Marx himself lived to see the utter evil&ruin that his "teachings" inspired. The promised bloodsoaked "utopia"
His ideas quite literally gave birth to the movements with the highest death counts in history. This needs a fucking movie made about him (from a non socialist perspective ofc)
My favorite quote about politics is from the RUclipsr, Kraut: "If you dedicate your entire ideology to the opposition of something, you will inevitably sell yourself out to something that is worse than what you originally opposed."
“Everyone, help me defeat capitalism by making me rich!” gives off the same energy as “Everyone, help me defeat the monarchy by building me a castle!”.
Not really because a castle is useful as an instrument of war. More like "Everyone help me defeat the monarchy by proclaiming me the new King (with the exact privilleges of the old one of course)"
@Crispy and Spicy Oh don't worry. The revolution will build a republic. Sure, the constitution will specifically erode liberties you had under the King, but you can trust the President.

"Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.” - Winston Churchill Churchill was 100 times smarter than all Breadtubers put together.
When that Huxley quote came on screen, i was reminded of one of my favourite quotes by C.S.Lewis: “Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth."
Yeah, but if *I* was an omnipotent ruler.... I would only settle for Ohio and the U.S. Virgin Island.....and a theampark in Europe...................mostly for pranks.............and the ability to do anything
Allow me to finish the quote. "This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”
While I laughed at the savage 19th century esq roasting Marx's father gave him in those letters, you can also feel the sorrow in the words. His dad clearly loved him, but was pissed off and saddened by the man Marx was becoming.
I can't imagine how TRAGIC it would be to look at a son becoming, in real time, a drunkard and a political activist for taking and taking. It must have ate him up something fierce.
Can't imagine the feeling of watching your son become a sociopathic dipshit. If I'd even have a son, I'd try to be as close to him as I can in this modern world, because there's a lot of ideologies out there designed to poison minds rather than open them.
It's one of the reasons why I am cautious of having kids. I could give them anything they would need and want so they can have a better life than I had, but they could turn into someone with a horrible mindset and ideology
@@DuhSinfulDemon You can absolutely raise your children right and ensure they have good values and character. It just requires you find a good woman who supports you and your authority, and you yourself to not emotionally abandon your children in favor of the work of industrial societies. Do not give, let them earn and teach them the value of sacrifice and suffering through their actions, and most of all, be a good example. It's no small task for sure, but seldom is there a more worthy cause.
@@jakeelkins5662 Ironically science points to us likely being close in relation to those particular animals, so if those animals are closer to us than other animals then it still points to Peterson being right. As I'm guessing you mean apes and porpoises
I've met communists before and asked them about the Romanovs. "The Czar?" "Oh yes he deserved it, very bad man." "His wife?" "Oh yes, she was horrible." "And the children?" "...Well, it was necessary..." It's an ideology built upon killing princesses. These people are like stock villains you'd hear about in a fairytale.
Hmm.. Maybe not built around killing princesses, but being so misled as to accept killing innocents as justified, in the name of the cause. Anything founded on fanaticism and authoritarian rule eventually comes out to be evil.

Damn, Marx's father comes across as considerate, intelligent, well balanced, tolerant yet based, and productive. The shame of somehow producing such an outstandingly rotten son must've weighed heavy on him.
A man so focused on what he lacks that he manipulates and stews over everyone in his life to the point that he thinks nothing but himself and his status? Are we talking about Marx or Pat Batemen here?
This is why many socialists fail cuz they can never have a good relationship with their family if you still care about your family no matter even though we arguing fight you still got their back and they still got yours that's the sad things between these people they lost that.
I've interacted with a lot of socialists/communists, anarchists, etc., and I was always surprised at how bitter, hostile, and unreasonable they were. Then, one day, a good metaphor hit me. To them, reality is hell; an actual tormenting nightmare. It's everything they don't want. The only escape is utopia; some perfect vision of the future where we somehow have rules without rulers and no conflict. If you disagree, even slightly, then you're a demon. You are a resident of hell, holding them back. You're not a person, worthy of empathy. You're just an obstacle. So is nature, science, biology, etc.
Even the Robert Reichs of the world still know we have to make our own in this “hell”. Too bad I fear a lot of Union Democrats are tilting towards the groups you mentioned
Yeah. What's more, that mindset is for pieces of shit, because they see the world as a corrupt place full of assholes, and that view gives them permission to be as much of an asshole as they want to be. Adlerian psychology proposes the opposite of Freudian psychology: People want to be assholes, and they will find an excuse. If the privileged, sheltered, western "anarchists" didn't choose that excuse to be assholes, they would have chosen any other excuse. Freudian psychology is flawed in one simple, but key aspect: Not all victims of trauma end up being assholes. Assholes simply appear, and will use any trauma as a personal excuse to become pieces of shit. The biggest """trauma"" of the "anarchist socialist antifascist" morons? Living in a world where they are NOT in power.
It's what happens to children who get everything they want their whole lives, eventually that stops happening and then they start behaving like a child who doesn't get what they want. Thing is a child who lashes out and is violent can be stopped by their older and more powerful parents and told that's now how to behavior or get what they want, an adult that does the same thing is incredibly dangerous.
@@WhiskeyPatriot I just find it funny that people communicating online lack any sense of relativism.

@@rahn45 Yeah, likely because their parents were absolutely terrible. They lack any sense of relativism.

I know someone like this… I’ve had to mute her for “30 days” a few times because her posts were just insufferable. Whining “Conservatives/Christians bad” because they’re not giving and wasting all their money on people like her (single mothers). On one hand, I feel bad for her because she does have a bunch of mental issues, and it affects her work. On the other hand, she also makes no effort to make any improvements. She only cares about getting high to cope, and nothing past that. You’d think after getting knocked up young, smoking weed all the time, gaining a ton of weight, and being in a relationship with a guy who would sexually assault another woman (I think while they were still dating), that you’d start making some changes, but nope. Just complain that people don’t give you free money, as if it wouldn’t be wasted given her attitude.
@@wolfscareglow2425 She was a work colleague from nearly I decade ago I stayed Facebook friends with. We’ve only met in-person a few times since and never really talked through Facebook, so it’s not that bad. Just annoying when I see her re-share socialist garbage in my feed, lol. But it’s hilarious because another FB friend is the complete opposite, re-sharing TurningPointUSA posts and other anti-socialist stuff. It’s like two people are having a feud in my feed and neither are aware of it, haha.
I'm glad you put Karl Marx's father's letter in there. Never heard about it before but it truly justifies what Thomas Sowell has written in his book about him, manipulative, sociopathic, egotistical, nihilist. Although I still found some of those who still agree with him with genuine positive intentions, I would, unfortunately, say the general followers of his ideology seem to have fallen into the same mindset as he is. And besides, in most cases, it's the means that matter most than the end and the path to hell has always been paved by good intentions.
@@jimmybeans1175 You shouldn't piss on that intent though because it's the only bit of sanity we can grab and pull back towards reality, once their goal morphs from "I want to help people" to "I have to destroy my enemies to help people" you lose the ability to have any discourse with said person in good faith.
@@theeccentrictripper3863 I’m not pissing on it, good intentions can be naive and lead to bad outcomes. I’m agreeing with you.

"I hate that I have to work to eat." I must throw back an argument tossed at me when I said I didn't consent to paying taxes by virtue of being born: go live on some uncared for land and grow your own crops. You will work, still, but it will be all yours.
I've had thoughts exactly like that in the depths of depression. I can personally confirm Peterson's assertion. If it wasn't for my upbringing and core values, I would have been one of these tankies.
That was my life for at least the first 12 years. Of course I didn't have the vocabulary to verbalize that concept, but it deeply resonates with how I felt during my childhood. But so many of these Vaush types are children of privilege, so that's always baffled me. . . 🤷🏾♀️

All I can think about when watching this is the Tombstone quote about Johnny Ringo and why he does such heinous acts. "A man like Ringo has got a great big hole, right in the middle of him. He can never kill enough, or steal enough, or inflict enough pain to ever fill it." "What does he need?" "Revenge." "For what?" "Being born."
In a twisted sort of way, such a mindset would make abortion a mercy. If existing is pain, then the greatest mercy would be to prevent existence. How dark a road that is.
I would love to make a reality show where you get a group of libertarians/conservatives on one island and the breadtube communists on another island. Goal is to survive and build a community on the island. Rules of the show are as follows: 1. You MUST adhere to the ideology you preach to the letter. Capitalism for the libertarians/conservatives and straight up redistribution of resources for the communists 2. No contact with the outside world (other than the camera crews). That's it, I would pay actual money to see this. I think about 100 people on each island would suffice.
this has already been done with men vs women, which is close enough since women are inherently socialist. the results were exactly what you think they were.
You should not apologize for that letter from Marx's father it was sooo good. It puts so much in perspective and makes me think everyone who says to read the Communist manifesto should be forced to read his father's letters to him. Keep up the good work.
Socialists are the worst that mankind has produced. Simple anecdote why: I am German and had skinheads as well as socialists in my circle of acquaintances. After visiting the concentration camp in Buchenwald, the skinheads abandoned their ideology and have not relapsed to this day. The socialists, on the other hand, did not put up the special camp in Buchenwald operated by Stalin's secret service, the memorial crosses in Berlin for the GDR refugees who drowned in the Spree or were shot, the Stasi prison in Hohenschönhausen, nothing has changed their opinion. The victims themselves are to blame for their fate, or the SED, which did not understand socialism. Envy, greed, lack of empathy, misanthropy, hatred, socialists embody all this and, in all their hideousness, still act as if they care about the well-being of people.
well daryl davis was the same.. he could sit and talk and covert kkk members.. but couldn’t even get a sjw communist/socialist blm person to have a convo.. they threaten to burn down the theatre
Seems there's a reason envy is considered a sin. Also I never knew about Marx's father, I feel bad for him. Sounds very familiar to the situation a lot socialist-types have with their loved ones. Nothing new under the sun after all.
Envy is a sin, jelousy is not. I'm starting to think the conflation of the two is intentional. Cause these progressives frame jelousy as evil, while envy is embraced
The way I see jealousy vs envy: For example, let’s say you have a gf you are quite fond with. You two have a fantastic relationship. One day, you two meet a handsome individual (let’s name them, Mr. Good) and become good friends with him. While you know your gf is faithful and wouldn’t cheat, Mr. Good and your gf are spending a lot of time together. This begins to bother you and you tell your gf she shouldn’t see him any more. Now let’s say for the second example you don’t have a gf but you meet Mr. Good, his wife and children. You notice that Mr. Good has a well paying career and is able to have extra money to give to his friends and family. His wife is good looking, is able to take great care of their children and she will always seek out to cater to his every needs (not out of obligation, but because their love is genuine and that they want see each other happy and to give each other what best for them). His children, while young and still learning, have complete trust in their parent and what ever Mr. Good and his wife says, they listen and do what is told without rebellion. Overall, Mr. Good has a good life. However, you want that life. You want it to a point that you will kill for it. One day you travel alone with Mr. Good and you kill him. You get away with murder and then you marry Mr. Good’s Wife and adopt his children. Example 1 is jealous as you don’t want to lose your love one to someone else Example 2 is Envy as you love the lifestyle of Mr. Good so much, you want to take it and keep it for yourself, even if it means hurting someone for it. TLDR: Jealously is the fear that something or someone will be taken from you. Envy is coveting what someone else has
@LeoTheBritish-Eurasian Well, if you call yourself a socialist then we can assume you act like one. This is the problem with strict ideological thinking, you put yourself in a box and your political opponents can use it as a weapon against you. Take my advice: Become an issue-based thinker rather than an ideology based one. And quit marxism (assuming you follow it) it’s mostly bullshit.
Envy as a sin confuses me. If you envy a person then you wish to be more like them: To have their strengths and virtues. The envy will pass once you do obtain those strengths, virtues. Perhaps the trap is to envy another's possessions? Though that's just the foundation of capitalism really: To see someone else having stuff you want and deciding that you want to get that stuff as well. Perhaps the sin is the reaction to Envy/Jealousy? To destroy the other person and steal their things as opposed to building yourself up and to earn things.
The idea that you didn't consent to life may have been true as a child but it rings very hollow from adults. Every day you stay alive is of your own volition. There's always a choice.
Well yes but no, if you say you want to kill yourself, you will get locked up in mental hospital and dying becomes very difficult. So better not tell anyone you dont want to be alive.
They are too self centered and a cowards to delete themselves.Also, I do not think that they actually want to die, but pike author said, they want some perfect world (on their opinions and views) so they feel more like "Fine, I'm too weak, proud, stupid and cynical to make my life better. So I'll actually make life a living hell for everyone else". In short "I'm not trapped with you, you are trapped with me".

Sadly most people when hearing JBP for the first time or who don't really watch his stuff can be very turned off by a lot of his biblical symbolic language. But with this quote I absolutely agree. Most people I've met, either being very normie or very far left leaning or simply feminist, all seem to think that humanity is a cancer and we should stop having kids and die off.

I've gone from optimistic to rather cynical about human nature over the last decade or two. Time and again the same mistakes are made in ever more sophisticated ways, and both our memory and capacity to learn from them doesn't seem to improve. And now we're hitting the point of actually being an extinction level threat to ourselves, in various ways overt and insidious. One can hope for a better outcome but I can no longer expect it these days. At this point I say let the dice roll, manifest destiny is bunk and if we do end up a failed, extinct species it's because we did it to ourselves.
@Prey R I'd still consider myself agnostic, even though I want to believe, but I'm absolutely convinced at this point that evil absolutely does exist, and it's called leftism/progressivism/socialism/communism.
@Prey R Well, I think it's that we're just starting to get into the hard times, but we still have it relatively good. I assume I would start to believe if our society would really collapse because of these chucklefucks.
@Prey R As I saw it, both the left and the Cathedral have been escalating in their plans while people in the US still have their guns. Also, I have a hard time imagining financial collapse to be gradual enough for that for example.
That's about as low as suggesting that conservatives are generally hicks who must be having sexual relations with their cousins. If the ideas of your opponents are flimsy enough, you should focus on that.

Regarding his Cain and Abel allegory, I do not think it's dramatic at all. We had an entire summer of Cains and Abels. Black Men preaching Black Power burning down Black Businesses for the crime of having made it.
I don't think it's too dramatic. I was at a house party and briefly spoke to a communist, it didn't take him very long to take off the mask as soon as he thought I was on his side it was really eye opening (and I come from a country with a deep and bloody history between the two sides). Let's just say if I was his boss I wouldn't want to be tied up and left in a room with him and some blunt objects. And he would need to be tied up because this guy wasn't imposing but would hit you with a hammer when you back was turned, judging from how quickly he went from better working conditions to torture
Dude, this in tandem with that survey where they asked people how much of the US they think is homosexual makes me feel good about the counter action from the logical thinkers. People said like 30%, where it's really like 1.7%. Confirmation bias, echo chambers, circle jerking.

A while back I had a coworker who would constantly talk about how oppressed and poor we all were (but mostly him). Sure we were probably being being paid below industry standard at the time, but he apparently lived in a stable home (I didn't ask him where he actually lived) and bought lunch out each day. His major hobbies (other than ranting about the "evils" of capitalism) were video games (specifically fighting games) and collecting vinyl records from the 80's. He talked about his record collection a lot, which was so big that he had to keep most of it in a self-storage unit (which he would need to pay for every month). IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO BUY VIDEO GAMES AND VINYL RECORDS, YOU ARE NOT POOR! I DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR HOURLY PAY IS! It never sounded like righteous indignation to me. It just sound like he looked at his modest apartment (again, I'm giving the benefit of the doubt and assuming that he doesn't live in an actual freaking house) and then looked at a 2 million dollar mansion and said "hey, that's not fair" and never got over that. I still lived with my parents so he actually had more privilege than I did at that point. Eventually he just quit that job, because he was tired of our boss "taking advantage of him." I have no idea if ever found employment again, but he probably did, and he's probably still pissed about it.
That's not a very convincing argument. The difference between pay of the average worker and CEO has skyrocketed since the 70s.

Brilliant video. I’ve never been a socialist or materialist of any kind, brought up in a lapsed Catholic family, but that letter by Marx’s dad made me take stock of my life. Even though my job isn’t as fulfilling as I would want it to be, there’s still a lot I have to be grateful for. Materialists, like Marx, don’t want to live but to get away with living. This critique of Socialism is very reminiscent of Ayn Rand, and that’s why I gravitate more toward her philosophy than most others. “Destruction is the only end that the mystics' creed has ever achieved, as it is the only end that you see them achieving today, and if the ravages wrought by their acts have not made them question their doctrines, if they profess to be moved by love, yet are not deterred by piles of human corpses, it is because the truth about their souls is worse than the obscene excuse you have allowed them, the excuse that the end justifies the means and that the horrors they practice are means to nobler ends. The truth is that those horrors are their ends”
@@engelsteinberg593 it’s not. Even hardcore capitalists say it isn’t. It’s merely a better choice, but unfortunately corruption, abuse, and manipulation still exist within Capitalism.

That rant at the end 🤣. My favourite take on socialist and leftists is the example of my father's small town. Almost everyone there votes left , they're the so called "subscribers" by my father because no matter what, you need to vote left. The problem ? Everyone there hates the so called "refugees" ( they aren't so btw ) which are sent by the government as a quote for every region and approved by the governors. So when i told them that voting for a lefty government that has no problem going with open borders is exactly the problem their brain shut down and they went full NPC mode because "we don't vote for the right here , we are anti fascists". I was 15 when i discovered this , to this day i still mock them when i visit my father
"Winning" cannot be a principle. A principle has to apply universally to everyone in a given situation. So, if you believe in "fair trials" as a principle then you support anyone, no matter what they're accused of and no matter the amount of evidence against them, even if you personally witnessed them committing the crime, receiving a fair trial. That is what a principle is.
Success matters. But success without principles often becomes failure. Imagine having no loyalty or no goals other than success. Do you call that success?
This was a topic JBP has touched in a few times over the years that has been quite interesting to me. For years I always felt like the villain architype "seemingly all powerful being that wants to literally destroy everything in existence" that often pops up in comic books or video games was just a stupid concept only created due to "villain power creep." But Peterson did a talk that mentioned the Columbine shooters awhile ago where he quoted one of the shooters who happen to write a bit of a manifesto leading to the event and wouldn't you know it, but the guy basically said something along the lines of he would have preferred to destroy everything in existence but lacked the power to do so he would settle with the shooting. Another interesting example was a video Mister Metokur did that was diving through a series of videos this one kid did leading up to a murder suicide where I think he literally flipped a coin to pick who or where he was going to kill. Not because that person had wronged him, but because if his life was so fucking shitty, it would be poetic to do something as horrific as murdering an innocent as a form of "fuck you" to existence itself.
A common theme is that the villain was once a good guy who suffered some tragedy that made them bitter. They're convinced that all of being is inherently evil and that they're the good guy by destroying everything. They have a strong sense of morality but it's twisted. You can see this in the story of Noah's flood. God destroys everything because it's evil, saves the tiny sliver that isn't evil, and sends a sign that he'll never do it again. It's sort of acknowledging that the villain has a point - if all of being is evil, it would make sense to destroy it. But God sent a sign saying he'd never destroy everything again, meaning that if anyone claims to be righteously bringing destruction on behalf of God, they're lying. The message is that the villain's viewpoint makes sense but it's not the answer. Another theme is that the villain is a moral nihilist: "there is no good or evil, there is only power, and those too weak to seek it". There is no bedrock loyalty to any overarching principle. Any loyalty they do have is merely a self-interested optics game. When a principle stops serving them, they discard it, unless they think that holding onto it (and thus appearing "principled") will serve their interests in the future. Vaush's stated philosophy basically.
It's not to hard to unwrap that mentality. Most people don't have remorse to killing insects as an example, in the case of mosquitos I'm sure people feel satisfaction in dispatching them. All that needs to be done is have people start viewing other people as insects, and unfortunately it's not all that hard to do.

I know Reddit is a cesspool but fuck me, people are willing to accept smashing a man's balls and hips with a hammer and women beaten and tied to lamp posts with their trowses and pants round their ankles Humans really are vile creatures
Peterson's statement is absolutely on point, I've been saying the same thing for years. I used to think that communism was the greatest foe we've ever faced, but really it's merely a façade for a far older, far more malevolent enemy.
Actually it's interesting you said "I guess socialism requires an outside capitalist society trading with them if it's gonna work?" Yes, yes it does. China's the best and latest example. If China didn't have somewhere to sell the output from their production lines they would have easily collapsed under the weight of just trying to feed their populations long ago. China survives because it has Capitalist trading partners, plain and simple. What destroyed the USSR was they preferred to only trade with their satellite states in the Eastern Bloc, all of which were communist as well. This lead to economic stagnation within the USSR and Eastern Europe that culminated in not only Eastern Europe eventually becoming Capitalist again but also in the downfall of Communism in the USSR.
The last thing is wrong. The Communist part was eager to trade will the west as much as possible, and get basically infinite money from the West trought their subversion spies.
As Marx and Engels pointed out in the Manifesto, modern productive forces require access to resources across the globe. That's why both capitalism *and* socialism are international in scope. Also it's utterly wrong to claim the USSR "preferred to only trade" with allies, there were repeated attempts to open up trade with Western countries in the 1920s and 1950s-80s. Détente was supposed to inaugurate a great expansion of such trade.
I needed a Dev video today. One of the few people that hasn't devolved into an everyday low level podcast, or an annoying ass 3 plus hour daily streamer.
He certainly keeps the ol' 2014 scripted video than alive. H3H3 wasting all his time on that trash podcast, his own room temperature political takes and stopping any of his funny content was an immensely disappointing process. I miss Carl's old video style, but Lotus Eaters is one of the only podcasts that make it worthwhile for me to listen to every episode.
@@MissRora Yeah Callum holds down the fort when Carl's not there and John is the best on the team imo. Great voice, level headed, insightful and doesn't reject memes as hard as Carl and Callum do anime lol.
@@arczero1623 I'd be hard-pressed to pick a 3rd favorite (after Carl and Callum, of course) but I think mine might be Harry. Good sense of humor, and he works well with pretty much anyone, much like Callum does. And I have to say, bless Callum for the Meme Breaks - the news is so dark lately that those are really helping me keep my sense of humor! I will never lose my love of the absurd! I also love that they're really shuffling people around so you can see who makes good teams - I don't know if that's entirely intentional, but it's making for some really enjoyable podcasts. Some of the folks definitely seem to work together better than others - some balance each other, some help boost each other to be better together than they would be with others, etc. I'm quite pleased with the team of John and Thomas - John helps "brighten" Thomas a bit, and their tendency to both be a little quieter even though they're miked makes it easier for me to just turn up the volume when it's the two of them, vs when either of them are on with someone else, when they're just sometimes a bit too quiet. I am a little worried about Thomas, though - he always seems borderline depressed, poor guy! As someone with depression, I feel that! Leo's a kick - at first I kind of blew him off as just being a comedian, but when he gets serious, he's really knowledgable, too - you just have to get him to be serious, LOL! I really enjoy when Josh is on - I wish he'd do it a bit more often. But I'm guessing that all that research he's doing takes time, so he doesn't get to spend as much time on the air. But I really like his style and how good he is at it. Overall, I'm really impressed with the whole team. And I can't wait to see where it goes in the future!
I used to get mad at people on Twitter because I was like "NO, that's NOT how the real world works". In my own dumbassery, I discovered I should look at Twitter through a glass window, as 'insane' people. I realized that majority of my friends and co-workers don't ether have a Twitter account or barely uses theirs. It's full of people (narcissists) that believe they know everything, it's fucking incredible and I often wonder if these people come from a state of privilege. America is not perfect 95% of us know that, but you goddamn right I rather live here than some 3rd world country where my rights are striped because of my gender or race AND not have the access to advancing technologies. There are many things I could complain about as well but TLDR: I love the rant at the end; It pretty much sums up my frustration with the platform. I would delete my account, but there is a lot of funny shit i come across on Twitter lmao.
i dont know where i heard it, but i remember something funny along the lines of: I use social media not as a chat room, but rather as a zoo to see what amazing specimens nature can create
I'd delete my twitter too, if it weren't for the fact I follow a few sports youtubers there cuz 99% of the time they avoid politics and talk about sports and tell funny sports jokes. They're genuinely pleasant to be around and follow, which is more than I could say for the rest of Twitter... sheesh...w
Twitter is not the voice of the people, and anyone who so treats it is making a huge mistake. About ninety percent of the posts on Twitter come from less than ten percent of the actual _people_ on Twitter.
Can you give me some Advice When i Enter Twitter? My Parents Allowed me to go to Twitter at my 19th Birthday party, And i am confuse in that Platform Insanity.
I'm not going to lie, the way the video cuts off at the end with Dev just ripping into perpetually online breadtards is honestly just perfect. It makes it look like he's going to continue railing them long after the video ends because that's just how bad they are and how much they annoy SFO. It's brilliant.

Human capacity for cruelty vastly outstrips our animal frens too, a lion may play with its prey but it won't extend this "torture" to months at a time or occupy itself with finding new and innovative ways to maximize its suffering.
@@BruhMoment-fr4zr Only because it can't; I don't think we're exceptionally cruel by nature, we're just smarter and as a result our capacity for awareness and enjoyment of cruelty is expanded like everything else.
@@theeccentrictripper3863 that’s pretty much the answer I was going to say as well. But it’s funny, because aquatic mammals like dolphins, actually are known to rape for fun, and are actually conscious of doing it. As well as kill for fun.

Yeah, I noticed the denials of God are like a tick. Atheism makes so little sense that it requires constant little workarounds to prop up while speaking of meaningful things. Otherwise a good video though
I think to a degree that some of the religions were correct in regarding the existence of evil as a universal hazard of being human, the greatest danger our post modern industrialized society has taught us is that the idea of evil is just as fictional as believing in literal angels and ghosts. I admit that to a strange meta level, I'm not an atheist anymore, perhaps a reluctant agnostic at best. But what I've grown certain of is that there is such a thing as unironic evil that cannot be cured with reason alone. 15:12 and dear God, Carl Marx was the Chris Chan of his time
Cmon now, there's at least a degree of separation between birthing communism and raping your mom, be nice to the angry man with the beard. I kind of get where you're at with the agnosticism, although I'd still call myself an atheist as I have no material evidence still of a god; having said that my interactions with pre-Christian Greek and Roman philosophy have kind of upended the board when it comes to things like good and evil or virtue and vice and their conceptions of both true polytheism and emanative polytheism don't have to be taken literally to absorb the wisdom they offer. Even the philosophers themselves are a bit tongue-in-cheek and less neurotic than modern philosophers or priests. I'd definitely recommend reading anything from Antiquity and start building up your own moral/epistemological scaffolding rather than relying on modern perspectives alone.
this is why the idea of the seven deadly sins and 7 heavenly virtues is a good idea to live by you can't rule lawyer your way around them, they apply universally and best of all they are simple 14 words
Jordan Peterson does make mistakes when he isn't talking about psychology, in the same way a chemist makes mistakes when not talking about chemistry, or when a nuclear engineer isn't talking about nuclear power, or when an anime buff isn't talking about anime. I have come to believe Peterson about modern nihilism. I was talking to a moderate Democrat coworker, saying that if the green new deal were rolled out and fossil fuels couldn't be used to grow or transport food, 50% or more of the population would probably die. They didn't refute my guess, but agreed with me and said that might be what the world needs. My conclusion is that the AVERAGE Democrat is a cynical nihilist.
Just another example. My mother, an average TV watching Democrat told me she would prefer babies die in the womb then grow up with bad parents. Like… my god, just kill everything because life is a little rough? Absolutely horrid.
@@CoruptedJester You know that's a good point. This mindset only believes one thing: that death is preferable to suffering. But JP has been teaching that suffering isn't something that you should go to great lengths to avoid. "Life is suffering, so take responsibility and carry something." Take that suffering and make it mean something, so that you can look at yourself and not be ashamed. That maybe, just maybe... life is worth living.
@Abdul Alhaz Everyone loves the idea of half the population dying until its their turn. At least that what I thought some years ago. As you have seen, your average Dem dreg of society would rather see everyone on the face of the Earth dead that having to work in a warehouse. They're pathetic, and I love to see them cry on social media about it.
For what I consider to be the glue of our civilization. I love what the west used to stand for, so I hate what ruined it, and threatens to ruin it completely. I hate the Anti-Christ.
This reminds me of something I came up with on my own awhile ago, although I’m sure I’m not the first to have a similar thought. These people aren’t good people. As Jordan Peterson put it, “they do not love the poor, they hate the rich.” They aren’t trying to be good people, they are looking around for the “bad” people, the people that it’s ok to hate, harass and assault, and they’re doing that, then turning around and extolling their own “virtues.” “Look at me, I’m a good person! I hated all the right people! I rejected my own whiteness! Look at me!”
I am glad to never have reached this level of failure mindset, if success doesn't happen right away. Instant Gratification is a terrible issue humanity has to deal with.

@@ExeErdna Marx wasn't necessarily stupid. Jordan Peterson himself described the man as being smart. I don't think Marx's problem was that he lacked intelligence, I think it was that he lacked wisdom, compassion, and a sense of hygiene.
@@ExeErdna In Marx's time there was no unity in Germany, apart from standardized curricula. When studying law became too difficult for him, he simply changed universities. (Even in his youth he was more talkative than diligent) He moved from Bonn via Berlin to Jena, a university where it was relatively easy to get a doctorate.
These envious little worms disgust me to no end, I was taught that envy is a shameful emotion to publicly express or engage in because expressing it is a form of personal moral weakness.
Keith Woods said something about that and it was very profound. I don't know if he came up with it or got it from somewhere else. "The right memes to truth, while the left memes to power." And that's why leftist memes are often unfunny and have long winded phrases and walls of text. They're not trying to laugh at life. They're just trying to dominate.
I remember another Peterson's quote "When you think you are bad at game of life and start to resent it and others who succeed, you end up hating it and want nothing more than to destroy the game itself" Or close to this.
Marx's dad was BASED! Holy F, I would love to hang out with THAT guy. I have honestly never seen a better take-down of the regressives in my life. Bravo, good Sir.
I've heard the letters of marx's father until now... and GOD DAMN its the same exact shit you hear when someone gets kicked out of their conservative parent's place and all they can say in response is "you don't understand I have a condition."
Wow. First of all those letters from Marx's Dad are AMAZING. I mean essentially it shows that Marx was as much a layabout loser parasite as the people who worship him. Second, that rant at the end? Beautiful.
I felt truly sad for karl's father. I felt his frustration. All the things said in those letters truly explains a lot about the man who brought about such a morally bankrupt and souless ideology as communism.
I do too but then I realise the impacts on the world his weakness in dealing with his son has wrought. His failure is hundreds of millions dead and an amount of suffering that would make the keepers of hell wince
@@LilNewo I think the same, yet I can't say I don't find what he did/failed to do relatable, and I can't condemn him completely. Goes to show how much people are willing to let slide when they're full of love for their children, even if they're truly irredeemable.
@@LilNewoYes, but be real: Could he have read his and minds of all the rest of genocidal maniacs which took his letters as excuse to do their agenda? Such things couldn't have been avoided by stricter upbringing. Nobody thinks that his child is next Antichrist until they are undeniably open on their agenda. Hitler and Stalin had strict upbringing, nothing too out of line for norms if their era, but most people don't grow to become monsters. Nobody is actually born wanting a genocide or apocalypse, but this rotten world is polluting the minds of children no matter how good their parents are.
On top of all that, Marx’s daughter tried to live by his principals and got so depressed that she committed suicide. It’s sad but that’s the end result of his ideals; bitter and depressed people.
She probably swallowed her father's ideology, pedaled it to masses and later found guilt ate at her soul for doing it and understanding what she had done.
What "principles" did she try to live by only to get depressed? In reality it was her romantic relationship with Edward Aveling that was the main cause of her depression, given he kept manipulating her.
I think your video's just get better and better everytime. I wish my few lefty friends would listen to this video and internalized what sad, miserable lives they will live if they keep on that path.
Marx dad was semi-based. He didn't hold back from telling his son what a despicable monster he had become, but on the other hand he was lame for enabling his son to become one of the worst human beings ever that brought the most suffering and misery into this world.

@@televized1781 Yep. I found it strange that nietzsche thought just because he stopped believing in a supernatural God that he needed to throw away all of religion and spiritualism. It makes for sick humans. Look at China after the Cultural Revolution.
I appreciate your solution to this. Personally, I've never been religious, both of my parents grew up in religious families but renounced religion when they married and moved off together. But they didn't abandon the most important teachings of Christianity. For that, I am grateful. I'm also grateful that they didn't do the opposite and smother me with overbearing religious nonsense instead of teaching actual important lessons. Reasonableness is something that I fear is either lost or very far into the process of being lost.
one of my favorite anime quotes is "to live is to fight" and boy is that relevant. Life is suffering, but you have the ability to combat it, and I personally think that's what our role as a human is - to be, and however you interpret that is also a key part in being human.
The thing I hate the most about it is how much it runs off and taints everything in our culture. Even if you're fully aware of what they're doing and reject all of their ideas, it's still very difficult not to catch their contagious negativity.
I'm glad that Marx's dad rebuked him so firmly. It makes me feel good that even good people can raise bad folks, and that good ideas remain in the modern era too.
Marx Sr. should've said "On your knees and wait for me. Now." Then, he'd travel all the way to his flat and whip out the belt.
His dad should have cut him off
The problem i have with his dad is that he didn’t let Marx fend for himself, instead he exclaimed his disappointment but kept sending him money. Today those parents exist and because they don’t have the strength to tell their children no then society has to deal with them when they come out of college. Honestly if it were me I’d let them struggle on their own and if socialism is really as great as they say then they will make it alone

In olden days, we simply called what drove Karl Marx "Envy".
What was Marx "envious" of? Marx himself explicitly criticized what he termed "crude communism," based on a "leveling down" of society.
That quote from Marx's father really hit me. It really is a dad wondering where things went wrong and desperately trying to make sense of his son's radicalization. Something that I'm sure many parents know all too well these days.
It's a textbook example. of hard men creating good times, good times creating weak men, and weak men creating hard times.
Parents are instinctively wired to want to provide a better life for their kids than they had. What they often don't realize is by coddling their children against life's harshness they are preventing them from developing the same skillsets and psychological body armor needed to be successful. Instead they become entitled brats, easily swayed to any attempt to feel "righteous" and "support a cause" that they will literally support anything if it "sounds good".
Marx's father should have been stronger and disowned his son.
Its telling of how his father bemoans Marx's wastefulness and how much he's spending and yet he still grants his request for the 160 talers. If he was wondering where things went wrong, that would have been a good place to start.
If you're in any way useful, it's because your father really hit you.

I don't remember what documentary I was watching now, but I watched one that talked about Marx and the writing of the Communist Manifesto, and his family, and wow, it was a mess. I actually see a lot of Vaush in Marx - perhaps unsurprisingly. (I'm not a Vaush fan - I've just seen him through other people who I watch.) He was clearly angry, basically incapable of running his own life, and entirely focused on his ideology, to the entire detriment of literally everyone around him. I searched my YT history hoping it was in there, but I didn't find it - It's possible it was on Netflix, Hulu, or Acorn, too. I don't THINK it was the DW "Who Was Karl Marx" one at YT, though, because the one I saw pretty much stayed in the past and didn't talk about how communism was applied in other countries - just about him, his family, and the writing of the book. (Which took his entire life, was still basically unfinished, and Engles put together after Marx's death.)

When that Huxley quote came on screen, i was reminded of one of my favourite quotes by C.S.Lewis:
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth."
Yeah, but if *I* was an omnipotent ruler....
I would only settle for Ohio and the U.S. Virgin Island.....and a theampark in Europe...................mostly for pranks.............and the ability to do anything
Allow me to finish the quote. "This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”
That was thrown around in the anti-sjw days. Now that's thrown away because now the right is the opposition and is wanting in on those moral treats.
Marx's dad eloquently laying his son's fault bare was a joy to read.
While I laughed at the savage 19th century esq roasting Marx's father gave him in those letters, you can also feel the sorrow in the words. His dad clearly loved him, but was pissed off and saddened by the man Marx was becoming.

Can't imagine the feeling of watching your son become a sociopathic dipshit. If I'd even have a son, I'd try to be as close to him as I can in this modern world, because there's a lot of ideologies out there designed to poison minds rather than open them.

It just requires you find a good woman who supports you and your authority, and you yourself to not emotionally abandon your children in favor of the work of industrial societies.

history is one big circle
Absolutely true.
I've interacted with a lot of socialists/communists, anarchists, etc., and I was always surprised at how bitter, hostile, and unreasonable they were. Then, one day, a good metaphor hit me. To them, reality is hell; an actual tormenting nightmare. It's everything they don't want. The only escape is utopia; some perfect vision of the future where we somehow have rules without rulers and no conflict. If you disagree, even slightly, then you're a demon. You are a resident of hell, holding them back. You're not a person, worthy of empathy. You're just an obstacle. So is nature, science, biology, etc.
Even the Robert Reichs of the world still know we have to make our own in this “hell”. Too bad I fear a lot of Union Democrats are tilting towards the groups you mentioned
Yeah. What's more, that mindset is for pieces of shit, because they see the world as a corrupt place full of assholes, and that view gives them permission to be as much of an asshole as they want to be.
Adlerian psychology proposes the opposite of Freudian psychology: People want to be assholes, and they will find an excuse. If the privileged, sheltered, western "anarchists" didn't choose that excuse to be assholes, they would have chosen any other excuse.
Freudian psychology is flawed in one simple, but key aspect: Not all victims of trauma end up being assholes. Assholes simply appear, and will use any trauma as a personal excuse to become pieces of shit.

Although I still found some of those who still agree with him with genuine positive intentions, I would, unfortunately, say the general followers of his ideology seem to have fallen into the same mindset as he is. And besides, in most cases, it's the means that matter most than the end and the path to hell has always been paved by good intentions.
Any positive intentions that some of these people have are born of naivety. The rest is a front for their own selfishnesses.
@@jimmybeans1175 You shouldn't piss on that intent though because it's the only bit of sanity we can grab and pull back towards reality, once their goal morphs from "I want to help people" to "I have to destroy my enemies to help people" you lose the ability to have any discourse with said person in good faith.

2. No contact with the outside world (other than the camera crews).

Socialists are the worst that mankind has produced. Simple anecdote why: I am German and had skinheads as well as socialists in my circle of acquaintances. After visiting the concentration camp in Buchenwald, the skinheads abandoned their ideology and have not relapsed to this day. The socialists, on the other hand, did not put up the special camp in Buchenwald operated by Stalin's secret service, the memorial crosses in Berlin for the GDR refugees who drowned in the Spree or were shot, the Stasi prison in Hohenschönhausen, nothing has changed their opinion. The victims themselves are to blame for their fate, or the SED, which did not understand socialism. Envy, greed, lack of empathy, misanthropy, hatred, socialists embody all this and, in all their hideousness, still act as if they care about the well-being of people.
If there is even a shred of truth to this, God help us all.

Envy is a sin, jelousy is not.
I'm starting to think the conflation of the two is intentional. Cause these progressives frame jelousy as evil, while envy is embraced
@@16m49x3 I'm not sure I understand the distinction.
Aren't both a feeling of selfish desire for the positive aspects of another's life?
The way I see jealousy vs envy:
For example, let’s say you have a gf you are quite fond with. You two have a fantastic relationship. One day, you two meet a handsome individual (let’s name them, Mr. Good) and become good friends with him. While you know your gf is faithful and wouldn’t cheat, Mr. Good and your gf are spending a lot of time together. This begins to bother you and you tell your gf she shouldn’t see him any more.
Now let’s say for the second example you don’t have a gf but you meet Mr. Good, his wife and children. You notice that Mr. Good has a well paying career and is able to have extra money to give to his friends and family. His wife is good looking, is able to take great care of their children and she will always seek out to cater to his every needs (not out of obligation, but because their love is genuine and that they want see each other happy and to give each other what best for them). His children, while young and still learning, have complete trust in their parent and what ever Mr. Good and his wife says, they listen and do what is told without rebellion. Overall, Mr. Good has a good life. However, you want that life. You want it to a point that you will kill for it. One day you travel alone with Mr. Good and you kill him. You get away with murder and then you marry Mr. Good’s Wife and adopt his children.
Example 1 is jealous as you don’t want to lose your love one to someone else
Example 2 is Envy as you love the lifestyle of Mr. Good so much, you want to take it and keep it for yourself, even if it means hurting someone for it.
TLDR:
Jealously is the fear that something or someone will be taken from you.
Envy is coveting what someone else has
@LeoTheBritish-Eurasian Well, if you call yourself a socialist then we can assume you act like one. This is the problem with strict ideological thinking, you put yourself in a box and your political opponents can use it as a weapon against you. Take my advice: Become an issue-based thinker rather than an ideology based one. And quit marxism (assuming you follow it) it’s mostly bullshit.
Envy as a sin confuses me.
If you envy a person then you wish to be more like them: To have their strengths and virtues.
The envy will pass once you do obtain those strengths, virtues. Perhaps the trap is to envy another's possessions? Though that's just the foundation of capitalism really: To see someone else having stuff you want and deciding that you want to get that stuff as well.
Perhaps the sin is the reaction to Envy/Jealousy? To destroy the other person and steal their things as opposed to building yourself up and to earn things.
The idea that you didn't consent to life may have been true as a child but it rings very hollow from adults. Every day you stay alive is of your own volition. There's always a choice.
Well yes but no, if you say you want to kill yourself, you will get locked up in mental hospital and dying becomes very difficult. So better not tell anyone you dont want to be alive.
They are too self centered and a cowards to delete themselves.Also, I do not think that they actually want to die, but pike author said, they want some perfect world (on their opinions and views) so they feel more like "Fine, I'm too weak, proud, stupid and cynical to make my life better. So I'll actually make life a living hell for everyone else".
In short "I'm not trapped with you, you are trapped with me".

Let's just say if I was his boss I wouldn't want to be tied up and left in a room with him and some blunt objects. And he would need to be tied up because this guy wasn't imposing but would hit you with a hammer when you back was turned, judging from how quickly he went from better working conditions to torture

A while back I had a coworker who would constantly talk about how oppressed and poor we all were (but mostly him). Sure we were probably being being paid below industry standard at the time, but he apparently lived in a stable home (I didn't ask him where he actually lived) and bought lunch out each day. His major hobbies (other than ranting about the "evils" of capitalism) were video games (specifically fighting games) and collecting vinyl records from the 80's. He talked about his record collection a lot, which was so big that he had to keep most of it in a self-storage unit (which he would need to pay for every month).
IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO BUY VIDEO GAMES AND VINYL RECORDS, YOU ARE NOT POOR! I DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR HOURLY PAY IS!
It never sounded like righteous indignation to me. It just sound like he looked at his modest apartment (again, I'm giving the benefit of the doubt and assuming that he doesn't live in an actual freaking house) and then looked at a 2 million dollar mansion and said "hey, that's not fair" and never got over that. I still lived with my parents so he actually had more privilege than I did at that point. Eventually he just quit that job, because he was tired of our boss "taking advantage of him." I have no idea if ever found employment again, but he probably did, and he's probably still pissed about it.

As a religious person the first error its speaking in religious terms, to people that are not religious, its easier to talk in universals, but ironically the religious points are where a lot of universals are.
Exactly. A lot of people are just ignorant of history on so many levels that it's not even funny.
That's not irony, if a point is universal it will appear in most religions since it is universal

I’ve never been a socialist or materialist of any kind, brought up in a lapsed Catholic family, but that letter by Marx’s dad made me take stock of my life. Even though my job isn’t as fulfilling as I would want it to be, there’s still a lot I have to be grateful for.
Materialists, like Marx, don’t want to live but to get away with living.
This critique of Socialism is very reminiscent of Ayn Rand, and that’s why I gravitate more toward her philosophy than most others.
“Destruction is the only end that the mystics' creed has ever achieved, as it is the only end that you see them achieving today, and if the ravages wrought by their acts have not made them question their doctrines, if they profess to be moved by love, yet are not deterred by piles of human corpses, it is because the truth about their souls is worse than the obscene excuse you have allowed them, the excuse that the end justifies the means and that the horrors they practice are means to nobler ends. The truth is that those horrors are their ends”

That rant at the end 🤣. My favourite take on socialist and leftists is the example of my father's small town. Almost everyone there votes left , they're the so called "subscribers" by my father because no matter what, you need to vote left. The problem ? Everyone there hates the so called "refugees" ( they aren't so btw ) which are sent by the government as a quote for every region and approved by the governors. So when i told them that voting for a lefty government that has no problem going with open borders is exactly the problem their brain shut down and they went full NPC mode because "we don't vote for the right here , we are anti fascists". I was 15 when i discovered this , to this day i still mock them when i visit my father
Remenber they that Facism is a leftwing ideology.
"Winning" cannot be a principle. A principle has to apply universally to everyone in a given situation. So, if you believe in "fair trials" as a principle then you support anyone, no matter what they're accused of and no matter the amount of evidence against them, even if you personally witnessed them committing the crime, receiving a fair trial. That is what a principle is.
You could say everyones right to pursue victory as a principle

This was a topic JBP has touched in a few times over the years that has been quite interesting to me. For years I always felt like the villain architype "seemingly all powerful being that wants to literally destroy everything in existence" that often pops up in comic books or video games was just a stupid concept only created due to "villain power creep."
But Peterson did a talk that mentioned the Columbine shooters awhile ago where he quoted one of the shooters who happen to write a bit of a manifesto leading to the event and wouldn't you know it, but the guy basically said something along the lines of he would have preferred to destroy everything in existence but lacked the power to do so he would settle with the shooting.
Another interesting example was a video Mister Metokur did that was diving through a series of videos this one kid did leading up to a murder suicide where I think he literally flipped a coin to pick who or where he was going to kill. Not because that person had wronged him, but because if his life was so fucking shitty, it would be poetic to do something as horrific as murdering an innocent as a form of "fuck you" to existence itself.
A common theme is that the villain was once a good guy who suffered some tragedy that made them bitter. They're convinced that all of being is inherently evil and that they're the good guy by destroying everything. They have a strong sense of morality but it's twisted. You can see this in the story of Noah's flood. God destroys everything because it's evil, saves the tiny sliver that isn't evil, and sends a sign that he'll never do it again. It's sort of acknowledging that the villain has a point - if all of being is evil, it would make sense to destroy it. But God sent a sign saying he'd never destroy everything again, meaning that if anyone claims to be righteously bringing destruction on behalf of God, they're lying. The message is that the villain's viewpoint makes sense but it's not the answer.
Another theme is that the villain is a moral nihilist: "there is no good or evil, there is only power, and those too weak to seek it". There is no bedrock loyalty to any overarching principle. Any loyalty they do have is merely a self-interested optics game. When a principle stops serving them, they discard it, unless they think that holding onto it (and thus appearing "principled") will serve their interests in the future. Vaush's stated philosophy basically.
It's not to hard to unwrap that mentality. Most people don't have remorse to killing insects as an example, in the case of mosquitos I'm sure people feel satisfaction in dispatching them. All that needs to be done is have people start viewing other people as insects, and unfortunately it's not all that hard to do.

Peterson's statement is absolutely on point, I've been saying the same thing for years. I used to think that communism was the greatest foe we've ever faced, but really it's merely a façade for a far older, far more malevolent enemy.
Actually it's interesting you said "I guess socialism requires an outside capitalist society trading with them if it's gonna work?"
Yes, yes it does. China's the best and latest example. If China didn't have somewhere to sell the output from their production lines they would have easily collapsed under the weight of just trying to feed their populations long ago. China survives because it has Capitalist trading partners, plain and simple.
What destroyed the USSR was they preferred to only trade with their satellite states in the Eastern Bloc, all of which were communist as well. This lead to economic stagnation within the USSR and Eastern Europe that culminated in not only Eastern Europe eventually becoming Capitalist again but also in the downfall of Communism in the USSR.
The last thing is wrong. The Communist part was eager to trade will the west as much as possible, and get basically infinite money from the West trought their subversion spies.
As Marx and Engels pointed out in the Manifesto, modern productive forces require access to resources across the globe. That's why both capitalism *and* socialism are international in scope. Also it's utterly wrong to claim the USSR "preferred to only trade" with allies, there were repeated attempts to open up trade with Western countries in the 1920s and 1950s-80s. Détente was supposed to inaugurate a great expansion of such trade.
I needed a Dev video today. One of the few people that hasn't devolved into an everyday low level podcast, or an annoying ass 3 plus hour daily streamer.

H3H3 wasting all his time on that trash podcast, his own room temperature political takes and stopping any of his funny content was an immensely disappointing process.

I also love that they're really shuffling people around so you can see who makes good teams - I don't know if that's entirely intentional, but it's making for some really enjoyable podcasts. Some of the folks definitely seem to work together better than others - some balance each other, some help boost each other to be better together than they would be with others, etc. I'm quite pleased with the team of John and Thomas - John helps "brighten" Thomas a bit, and their tendency to both be a little quieter even though they're miked makes it easier for me to just turn up the volume when it's the two of them, vs when either of them are on with someone else, when they're just sometimes a bit too quiet. I am a little worried about Thomas, though - he always seems borderline depressed, poor guy! As someone with depression, I feel that!
Leo's a kick - at first I kind of blew him off as just being a comedian, but when he gets serious, he's really knowledgable, too - you just have to get him to be serious, LOL!
I really enjoy when Josh is on - I wish he'd do it a bit more often. But I'm guessing that all that research he's doing takes time, so he doesn't get to spend as much time on the air. But I really like his style and how good he is at it.
Overall, I'm really impressed with the whole team. And I can't wait to see where it goes in the future!
Woah, Marx Senior sure sounds interesting.
I used to get mad at people on Twitter because I was like "NO, that's NOT how the real world works". In my own dumbassery, I discovered I should look at Twitter through a glass window, as 'insane' people. I realized that majority of my friends and co-workers don't ether have a Twitter account or barely uses theirs. It's full of people (narcissists) that believe they know everything, it's fucking incredible and I often wonder if these people come from a state of privilege. America is not perfect 95% of us know that, but you goddamn right I rather live here than some 3rd world country where my rights are striped because of my gender or race AND not have the access to advancing technologies. There are many things I could complain about as well but TLDR: I love the rant at the end; It pretty much sums up my frustration with the platform.
I would delete my account, but there is a lot of funny shit i come across on Twitter lmao.
i dont know where i heard it, but i remember something funny along the lines of:
I use social media not as a chat room, but rather as a zoo to see what amazing specimens nature can create
I'd delete my twitter too, if it weren't for the fact I follow a few sports youtubers there cuz 99% of the time they avoid politics and talk about sports and tell funny sports jokes. They're genuinely pleasant to be around and follow, which is more than I could say for the rest of Twitter... sheesh...w
I have such great friends none of them use twitter or even know what it is. Such a blessing to have them.
Twitter is not the voice of the people, and anyone who so treats it is making a huge mistake. About ninety percent of the posts on Twitter come from less than ten percent of the actual _people_ on Twitter.

Cynicism is more or less universal so it's unsurprising.
I'm not going to lie, the way the video cuts off at the end with Dev just ripping into perpetually online breadtards is honestly just perfect.
It makes it look like he's going to continue railing them long after the video ends because that's just how bad they are and how much they annoy SFO.

Overly dramatic but somewhat true. Vicious humans are more dangerous than wild animals.
Humans kill more of their own than any other species. Man is definitely worse than animals.

I think to a degree that some of the religions were correct in regarding the existence of evil as a universal hazard of being human, the greatest danger our post modern industrialized society has taught us is that the idea of evil is just as fictional as believing in literal angels and ghosts.
I admit that to a strange meta level, I'm not an atheist anymore, perhaps a reluctant agnostic at best. But what I've grown certain of is that there is such a thing as unironic evil that cannot be cured with reason alone.

I kind of get where you're at with the agnosticism, although I'd still call myself an atheist as I have no material evidence still of a god; having said that my interactions with pre-Christian Greek and Roman philosophy have kind of upended the board when it comes to things like good and evil or virtue and vice and their conceptions of both true polytheism and emanative polytheism don't have to be taken literally to absorb the wisdom they offer. Even the philosophers themselves are a bit tongue-in-cheek and less neurotic than modern philosophers or priests. I'd definitely recommend reading anything from Antiquity and start building up your own moral/epistemological scaffolding rather than relying on modern perspectives alone.
Oh but you don't understand! Marx was "The greatest philosopher of all time"!

I have come to believe Peterson about modern nihilism. I was talking to a moderate Democrat coworker, saying that if the green new deal were rolled out and fossil fuels couldn't be used to grow or transport food, 50% or more of the population would probably die. They didn't refute my guess, but agreed with me and said that might be what the world needs. My conclusion is that the AVERAGE Democrat is a cynical nihilist.

These people aren’t good people. As Jordan Peterson put it, “they do not love the poor, they hate the rich.” They aren’t trying to be good people, they are looking around for the “bad” people, the people that it’s ok to hate, harass and assault, and they’re doing that, then turning around and extolling their own “virtues.”
“Look at me, I’m a good person! I hated all the right people! I rejected my own whiteness! Look at me!”

@@ExeErdna In Marx's time there was no unity in Germany, apart from standardized curricula. When studying law became too difficult for him, he simply changed universities. (Even in his youth he was more talkative than diligent) He moved from Bonn via Berlin to Jena, a university where it was relatively easy to get a doctorate.
These envious little worms disgust me to no end, I was taught that envy is a shameful emotion to publicly express or engage in because expressing it is a form of personal moral weakness.

I've never seen these words from Marx's dad before. Sounds like the guy was based.

Marx's dad was BASED! Holy F, I would love to hang out with THAT guy. I have honestly never seen a better take-down of the regressives in my life. Bravo, good Sir.

@@LilNewoYes, but be real: Could he have read his and minds of all the rest of genocidal maniacs which took his letters as excuse to do their agenda? Such things couldn't have been avoided by stricter upbringing. Nobody thinks that his child is next Antichrist until they are undeniably open on their agenda. Hitler and Stalin had strict upbringing, nothing too out of line for norms if their era, but most people don't grow to become monsters. Nobody is actually born wanting a genocide or apocalypse, but this rotten world is polluting the minds of children no matter how good their parents are.
On top of all that, Marx’s daughter tried to live by his principals and got so depressed that she committed suicide. It’s sad but that’s the end result of his ideals; bitter and depressed people.
She probably swallowed her father's ideology, pedaled it to masses and later found guilt ate at her soul for doing it and understanding what she had done.
What "principles" did she try to live by only to get depressed? In reality it was her romantic relationship with Edward Aveling that was the main cause of her depression, given he kept manipulating her.
Hearing the lines of Marx's father, which I never thought to read before, is... enlightening, and painful. I cannot imagine the pain of that.
I think your video's just get better and better everytime. I wish my few lefty friends would listen to this video and internalized what sad, miserable lives they will live if they keep on that path.
