Jordan Peterson doesn't really listen to himself lol. So recently Michael Knowles tweeted this insane thing:
And Jordan Peterson retweeted it saying 'I agree.' Much authoritarianism. He said once [paraphrasing] that when you buy a painting you let a bit of the artist/art into yourself. He's got a lot of Soviet paintings/propaganda in his home lol.Trump is calling to outlaw transgender ideology' not just for little kids, not just in classrooms or certain federal programs' at every level. This is an *excellent* development, and other potential 2024 candidates should follow suit! ������������������
Meanwhile here are some other quotes from things he's said in videos in the past about creativity:
I mean the reason there are non creative people is creative people often die. They're out doing like screwy things. They attract attention from people they shouldn't attract attention from like the authorities. You know creative people are revolutionary well tyrants don't really like revolutionaries. There's lots of reasons not to be creative even now like creative people - it's hard to monetise your creativity. Artists have a hell of a time surviving. Creativity is a double edged blessing for sure.

Let's look at it from an evolutionary perspective it's a hell of a lot easier to not be decked out in bright colours when the predators come along. You want to stay camouflaged against the herd like a zebra. You don't want to stand out.Open people have to be creative. They have to be because otherwise they die. They don't have any vitality and so they're cursed with the necessity of putting their foot out into the unknown and making sense of it and then they're also cursed with the necessity of trying to make a living while they're doing that which they can't because it's almost impossible to monetise creative action.

It's either France of Spain that's the most visited country in the world. It's one of those two I think there's more tourists in France than people most of the time. And part of the reason for that is it's just so damn beautiful. You just can't stand it. And you think. What's the economic value of that? It's absolutely incalculable and what's interesting too is that you build that beauty in and the further you get away from it in time the more valuable it becomes. Instead of decaying it has exactly the opposite effect it's value magnifies. And one of the things I'm deeply ashamed of as a Canadian is that our sense of beauty is so underdeveloped it's so primitive it's not even primitive that's the wrong word I don't know what it is. It's second rate. It's terror too because people are afraid of beauty.
The conservatives really have a problem with this in particular because conservative people tend not to be creative by temperament. And it's a mystery to me because they should be concerned with economic development and beauty is so unbelievably crucial to economic development it just yells out at you you know. So. Anyway so that's what artists are doing.

It opens your eyes to the domain of the transcendent. That's the right way of thinking about it. A real piece of art is a window into the transcendent. That's what it is and you need that in your life because you're finite and limited and bounded by your ignorance and lack of knowing and unless you can make a connection to the transcendent then you don't have the strength to prevail.You look at these magnificent cathedrals that our civilisation built over the centuries. [...] They'd start building a cathedral and 'oh we'll be done in about 300 years' imagine the vision that it took to invest in something like that. We look at quarterly reports we can't think 300 years into the future to build something of that kind of remarkable [lol the video cuts off as he continues to talk about Cathedrals that's somewhat amusing. He's a fan of those.]someone talking to Jordan Peterson
Quit daydreaming. That's the same thing as saying quit being creative. That's the same thing. Quit daydreaming. It's like quit using your imagination. Yeah well schools do that all the time. Stop daydreaming and and you know pay attention to your work. It's like well what if my work is daydreaming well then we're gonna punish you because you're going to be a good worker in a factory. Oh yeah those disappeared 100 years ago. I guess we haven't noticed yet. Oh well too bad for us and our children right and our future for that matter because it's unbelievably bone headed. Once the system gets established it tends to persist and so that's how it is but it's pretty sad so.I listen to him though lol. I laugh in the face of people who are like 'EvErY OnE WhO DiSlIkEs PeTeRsOn has never listened to him.'When the trans teenagers came after me when I opposed bill c-16 in Canada on compelled speech grounds I spent quite a bit of time watching them. Now I already kind of knew about that fluid identity crowd. So when I was at Harvard piercing and tattooing started to become a cultural rage. And I was interested in well who's doing this. Because I knew it was a practice limited to criminal subtypes and outcasts for a long time. So for example if you worked in the circus you were likely to be tattooed. And you know you toured round the circus and that was a kind of carny life and it was an outsider life and if you were a prisoner same thing. But then all of a sudden it started to make it's inroads into the popular culture. So we studied a group of early adopters of tatooing and piercing from the perspective of personality like who are these people? And they were all highly creative people. And creativity is a trait and all people aren't creative that's wrong. In fact most people aren't creative at all. [...] The tatooed types they were high in creativity and a lot of these people who are fluid in their identity are actually high in trait openness and they do have fluid identities. [...] OK well you see people the blue haired crowd. Well they're the same people who were doing tatooing and piercing and they are literally often the same people because they have piercings. It's like well they have mutable identities. They're not stable in their identities. That's they're- they're creative. Creative people by definition aren't stable in their identities that's what makes them creative.
Well (I said this before but it's still funny to me.) I wrote the word chaos everywhere as a teenager and next to some plants I was doodling in a notebook. 10+ years later a wild Jordan Peterson appeared. Nobody's combined all the times he says chaos into a single video lol missed opportunity. Lol I mean if you listen to him for 2 minutes he'll use the word chaos so don't really need to link an example but this one has a Slaanesh image in so and Tzeentch who is second best, and the other chaos Gods who are of less interest. One is getting in the way of my Isha/Slaanesh ship concept and the other is just chaos war god and I'm not masc enough for that one to interest me particularly. But. Not sure if he even used the word chaos in the video lol oh well.In a study of people in the United States who thought themselves to be members of a third gender, Ingrid M. Sell found that they typically felt different from the age of 5.[22] Because of both peer and parental pressure, those growing up with the most ambiguous appearances had the most troubled childhoods and difficulties later in life. Sell also discovered similarities between the third genders of the East and those of the West. Nearly half of those interviewed were healers or in the medical profession. Many of them, again like their Eastern counterparts, were artistic, and several were able to make a living from their artistic abilities. The capacity to mediate between men and women was a common skill, and third genders were oftentimes thought to possess an unusually wide perspective and the ability to understand both sides.[22] A notable result of Sell's study is that 93% of the third genders interviewed, again like their Eastern counterparts, reported 'paranormal-type abilities.'[23]
Alan Moore also spoke about that though when you write you often experience these coincidences. It's more of a creativity thing than a gender thing.
I Am GoInG To ReMoVe ThE GenDeR 'IdEoLoGy.'Aristophanes, [not that one lol,] a comic playwright, tells a story of creation in which 'original human nature' includes a third sex. this sex 'was a distinct kind, with a bodily shape and a name of its own, constituted by the union of the male and the female: but now only the word 'androgynous' is preserved.
OK. Good luck again. Doesn't really seem in his interest given how often he's lamented about how society crushes creativity. 'No not like that.' most recently they're freaking out about Sam Smith's music video. It's not something that resonates with me either but I don't consider that to be the point. Again not everything is for me/you.
You have your 300 year cathedrals well we've been working on this 'project' for thousands of years now lol collectively. It's not completed yet technologically. We don't even have access to artificial wombs yet.
Same. I am a conservative 26yr old, and her music just speaks to me. Can't explain it.Makes you miss 'I'm a metal head but' really lol. But they like it because she's syncretising her Southern Baptist upbringing into her work. King Princess uses religious/conservative themes in her work too. But it's also very [BEEP] and she's from NYC and that's also very present, and not the right tone for that kind of audience imo.i'm extremely left wing and what people would call a terf these days (i don't believe men are women just because they say they 'feel' like one). ethel's music is superb though, they're very talented. they really are reaching across demographics haha
Of course Ethel Cain has stuff like that too like the lyrics here are all about a guy but then whoever is in the video with her is either afab/trans masc or transfem or you know otherwise someone who has been on estrogen. That's part of why I like the video haha (I'm pretending they're non-binary tho. I'm sure that's not the point people don't usually share my headcanonons lol) Vibes. But again it's the overall image that people are paying attention to. King Princess is purposefully trying to be a little transgressive and they can't abide that lol (+centring lesbians.)
Oh man this song (it's pretty good,)
reminds me of The Cranberries song Dreams Lol this is me with other people's music. But someone else has always beat me to the mashup lol what.
I focus on Jordan Peterson the most of the popular North American bigots because the others are quite boring besides their bigotry imo. I've not stumbled on anything about them that's of any real interest to me. Matt Walsh won't even let himself watch anime for instance. Like this really (why is CJ so often relatable? And they're non-binary. Terrifying,) except I'm not a Christian I stopped being Christian when I was like 11? I dunno. Gradually grew out of it and my immediate family didn't encourage that (extended family mostly Catholic, primary school here encourages Christianity you have to have mandatory worship or something in school, but we're the groomers lol.) So my interest mostly came from the symbolism which I have mirroring views about lol.

You could disassemble the behavior tree code (it used a predecessor to the SimAntics visual programming language in The Sims, which is well documented online), or you could just go around killing people and watching what happened.
