John Cleese defined WOKEISM - "There are people just sitting there, who are deliberately waiting, for the thrill of being offended." 🤣
Decades ago, it was little old ladies who got easily offended. In 2023, it's the "rebels" and misguided youth who get offended by even the tiniest thing.
Not just the thrill of being offended, the thrill of punishing those who have offended them - and congratulating themselves for their moral ‘purity’ while they ply the lash or wield the bike lock.
Well that's the problem. Every time I try to find out what wokism is I get a different definition. I can't make head nor tail of it.
@@meghancass3187 It appears to be a generic word that means whatever is causing conservatives to sh*t bricks on that particular day.
Lol. That's a good one.
An engineering professor told us something, and I didn't realize how wise it was at the time: "You should aim to set your career and finances in a position that you can walk away from a job if you are asked to do something you are uncomfortable with"
Achieving moral freedom through financial freedom, must've been a wise guy

@@Marc_Remillardseems she’s too busy being the defendant now 😂
I love how Peterson turned 1 question into a 30 minute lecture. And in that 30 minutes he teaches so much
Not sure he does. For example, 9:07 he says, “one third of Eastern Germans were government informers” which is a line. Stasi network was immense, but only about 1 in 63 people were informers. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_East_Germany This is how it goes with Peterson: exaggeration here, omission there and all goes into one narrative. This is not teaching, it’s misinformation at best or propaganda at worst. He could have done better.
He has to. He's a con, and that's what cons do.
@@JohnnyRawksreally? In what way is JP a con? I don't always agree with everything he says but this man has a deeply philosophical mind and it shows how much he has read and studied and meditated upon ideas. If you really listen I think he has a beautiful mind.
@@AliciaM5555 He's a con because when he rose to fame during the Bill C16 roll out in Canada, he realized that the political Right was fertile ground to make a ton of money while pushing back on a multitude of progressive issues and there was a vacuum of 'smart people' in that space, so he filled it, and he filled it disingenuously in my opinion, for profit. I have been watching, and that's my honest assessment. If he was ethical and moral, he would have stuck to his wheelhouse, clinical psychology. You think it's some sort of coincidence that this guy pops up virtually every time there's a right-wing push back of any sort? He's there every time. Every single time. He's on top of every single right-wing narrative, all the time. He's a more articulate Glen Beck or Rush Limbaugh. He's harming society while enriching himself. People like that piss me off.
@@JohnnyRawks thank you so much for clarifying that. I admit I don't know much about JP or his history and your reply gave me much food for thought. Inherently capitalizing on current events is common and human nature so I don't see it as "evil" per se what I'd like to ask if his actions ultimately benefited others? I will definitely look into this. 😌🌹
I love the saying "A lie unchallenged becomes the truth."
It doesn’t, though. The Truth is unbreakable and not at all open to interpretation.
The lie becomes the perceived truth.
that's their agenda to normalize the lies, their opinion is what matters and nothing else.
@@hardcoredoom5892 well ….when the “Truth” is shoved down your throat or worse yet when society agrees to certain lies …the truth may be unbreakable in theory ….however in execution or relating to you being able to sufficiently use the truth is not just hindered but shut down …we have problems …..and right now …we have problems
The term “ Woke “ is an adjective derived from African-American vernacular English (AAVE) meaning “ Alert to racial prejudice and discrimination” Jordan Peterson’s ideas, thoughts and observations are often what the far right would call “woke”. Peterson has characterized himself politically as a “ Classic British liberal “ and a “ traditionalist “. He has stated that he is commonly mistaken as right wing. Peterson supports Universal Healthcare, redistribution of wealth towards the poor and decriminalization of drugs.DeSantis would say Peterson is definitely Woke, base on his description of himself.
“Never apologize for something you haven’t done or take a knee to the mob. They always come back for more”. - JP
If taking a knee to remember people who have lost their lives is so difficult for a person and their fragile feelings, then maybe that person is the snowflake
@@cs56076 name calling is pathetic and a sign of weakness. It’s the hallmark of an ideologue possessed with nothing more than programmed thoughts and displays a total lack of critical thinking. You can do better. Saint Floyd held a gun to a pregnant woman’s belly during a home invasion. Lest we forget.
@@cs56076 Oh pishposh.
If you are told to apologize for a crime which you could not have committed, (for example, which happened before you were born) then those making the demand are not seeking compensation but are just taking advantage.
@@cs56076 if you redefine what taking a knee means -not bending to tyranny - you have changed the narrative to flatter yourself and defined yourself as the snowflake. The word “fragile” is the latest buzzword among the woke. It is the bleating of herd animals.
Dr Peterson I hope you see this. I lost my left arm do to drug use among other things and became severely depressed because of it. However I simply started to clean my room and although it was difficult I realized that I could accomplish more than I ever thought. Seeing how everything is twice as difficult with one hand. From there my spirits lifted and I even got off of drugs. You are correct when you say that the challenges in life are where you find meaning. So I hope that next time someone says that your comments are banal I hope you let them know that your banal comments have saved more people's souls and lives than there petty little insults. Thank you I love you and I mean that from the bottom of my heart
I as well my friend - Discovered a near silent voice inside that slowly engulfed my bitter torment. By reading Dr. Peterson's books something like a fire began to engulf me & I surprisingly found a voice within me that allowed me to speak up rather than hide. Thanks so much for your words, they greatly inspire
You speak the words of SO many people!
Power to you ❤. Onwards and upwards against the struggle.
Jordan Peterson is Spartacus. Our role now is to stand shoulder to shoulder beside him

I’m so happy 😃 happy 😆 thank
I couldn't agree more. I've not said what I think/feel in the face of left/wokism and the price was neurosis. No more.

So woke what?
Woke is a disease.
For me all of this began during the pandemic, I was 17-18-19 at the time when everyone seemed to have to much time. Suddenly everywhere I saw all that woke stuff on the internet „don’t say that, don’t think that, don’t be that“ and so on. One think that really depressed me, becoming an adult as a male, was all that „toxic masculinity“ talking that started to appear. I learned that masculinity wasn’t something that was wanted/needed in the world. It was said everywhere that masculinity is bad, it causes wars, it is disstructiv, women don’t want and need it anymore and so on. I heard it so often that I started to believe it, I started to believe that masculinity is toxic and evil. Being a male myself, all of this depressed me deeply because I felt like there was no purpose in this world for me. A year ago, when I finished school, I started working out, working on myself and my mental health. I discovered Jordan Peterson and I learned so much I needed to hear. Thank you so much Mr. Peterson, please never stop doing what you are doing, there are so many young men suffering like I did.🙏🏻
Being a black belt in jiu jitsu and a high earner, I am liberal and most of my training partners/coworkers making high income are liberal. We all train hard and make fun of stuff, but none of us know what woke means other than just making fun of random stuff. Only on the internet it seems to matter and out in the real world “woke” has just become a boogeyman to get people to vote for conservative policies that are harmful to many people in the USA and keeps the middle class/poor subservient to rich. It is just sad and I still don’t understand woke or what the definition is.
@@rc8929astoundingly naive and willfully ignorant take.
I was so interested to hear your comment and if you were speaking Id be listening with much interest about your experiences there 😊
Believe in yourself, build a strong spirit. Then it never matters what others say. You sound like you are on the right path, keep it up. ✌️
I've noticed it's come to a point on social media where all that is required is the loosest association with the merest whiff of anything even remotely controversial - or even nothing sometimes - and BAM they will sling a label on it with no critical thinking whatsoever. "TOXIC" is one of their favorites. Have a minor disagreement with your significant other? The comments will flood with "That's toxic, red flag, get a divorce now". Had a glass of wine? "Toxic! Alcoholic! Get help now!" Smile at a girl who's not interested? "Sexual assault! Rapist! Lock him up!" Twist. Escalate. Label. It is truly absurd. What's disturbing is it takes things that are genuine social issues and dilutes them to the point that erases all differentiation. But there is a difference and we need to bring discernment and critical thinking back.
I have been standing up to this Woke nonsense now. Thank you for the hard work you do and the talks you share! ❤
You do now? You once thought your eyes lied and convinced yourself that the man you saw is a woman? How can a person allow others to believe their eyes lie? Now they also control your brain. Good to hear you finally see reality but why let yourself get suckered in the first place? Arron tippin, you have to stand for something or you'll fall for anything. Awsome song. Crank it then stand up dont allow others to change what you stand up for. Dont be a puppet on a string.
Can you define exactly what "woke nonsense" you are standing up against?
Please explain what Woke us. As a liberal myself, I have no clue what Woke means. Is it lower taxes for middle class? Is it not letting gays/trans be fired from a job just because of their sexual identity? Or how about referring to scientific literature when making healthcare decisions? Please let us know. It seems to be whatever conservatives are upset about.
@@rc8929 I think what the RIGHT is talking about is equality. They want hierarchy, not equality. That is the crux of their objection. Not in the best interests of democracy.
@@rc8929 it's everything you think you stand for but didn't arrive at yourself; it's all the tranny-satanic lies you swallowed to feel inclusively progressive, and it's blind worship at the altar of the cult of tyrannical government science because that piece keeps your entire fallacious paradigm intact (but not for much longer)
My husband and I recently went to a childbirth class and the teacher asked us to write our pronouns on our name tags. This was a class supplied by the Canadian government. We didn't put our pronouns on, and the teacher came and asked us our pronouns in front of the whole class. My husband just said "use your best judgemental" and the teacher gave us a snooty expression and moved on with the class. That was our contribution to anti wokeness.
The complacency of Canadians will lead to suffering in the future. Too many taboos, too little critical thinking!

Never worry about who will be offended if you speak the TRUTH. Worry about those who will be misled, deceived, or destroyed if you don’t
Everyone who doesn’t pay attention is mislead. Time to prep and be ready😅
Don't worry, be happy.
how can peterson claim "it isn't that the bible is true, it's that the bible is the precondition for the manifistation of truth and I think this is not only literally the case, factually, I think it can't be any other way" then in other lectures he claims we get hierarchies from millions of years of evolution, lobsters etc ? peterson contradicts himself so clearly that we on the left know he is a lying grifter and nothing more.
I agree with the idea. If one speaks the Truth (or truths) then it is important to not immediately offend people unnecessarily. But those who are misled include those who accept the way Jordan leads people into a strange direction. He says he had minor altercations with colleagues. But then he says something almost all faculty would agree with: hire more faculty and not more administrators. So, he was WOKE! He uses the word "woke" to talk about all kinds of things. He uses the word ambiguously. For him it now seems that if someone disagrees with him then he labels them as "woke." But his example is an example of being "woke"! Those who wanted to do what the administration wanted were not woke. He does not want to retreat. But his example quickly goes into something he calls the "woke mob." He fails to point out that most faculty unions are "woke" about NOT allowing administrations to cut back on the number of faculty allowed to teach very small seminars with 10-15 students rather than 20-25 or 30 students. He is against "totalitarianism" but he fails to point out that the administrators he was opposing are the "totalitarians". He says everyone in a totalitarian state lies all the time to everyone. But then he turns around and does not hesitate to say that Canada is a totalitarian state. Or did I miss something?
Love that!
There's another important point JP didn't mention: When you stand out from the crowd and stand fast against the tyrannical mob and say no, more often than not you'll find others joining you and supporting your position. They just needed to see one person light that first spark.
This has happened everywhere we've stood up. People come out of the wood work when they see the bravery of others.
Sometimes but not always....the Japanese have a saying...``the nail that stands up gets hammered down`` which would show a cultural difference to standing out.
No ! The tyrannical mob ........ TEARS YOU TO PIECES ....
The tyrannical mob tried to overrun congress and cancel an election. The same mob has militias running around in the forest training to overthrow our government. The very same mod thinks that “woke” means anything they feel offends them. Stuff like anti-racism, equal pay for equal work, even planting native plants instead of a lawn is “woke”. Give me a break.
Maybe... maybe the mob or the evil leaders will, but I've learned that they will be even more likely to tear me about if I don't stand up. If I do stand up there are two good possibilities (as well as bad ones) 1 others will join me and 2. I will take a beating but so does my enemy from me. Win or lose if I believe in my cause it is worth the fight.
There's a level of clarity from this man, coupled with his courage, that you don't find almost anywhere else.
This is what I've been looking for. My pastor hasn't given a practical response, books don't give a practical response, friends don't give a practical response. But THIS is the answer. Mr. Peterson, I want to thank you for putting this out there. Now I need to gather together my courage and apply what you said. Thank you for being an example for me.
They probably do, it sounds more like you have selective hearing than you do open critical thinking. You’re basically saying “no one is as practical as me and Jordan Peterson” maybe it’s time for some DMT because your ego may be clouding your critical thinking
I asked your pastor for practical advice on how to deal with children and he gave me a very hands-on explanation if you know what I mean. So maybe you are asking him the wrong questions.
@@AP-mf4fz You're full of crap. Chip on your shoulder? Incapable of conceiving how someone could find wisdom and the answer from the pretty great lecture from our boy JP? How hard is it to believe? Do you know what he read or heard? You don't know what he's saying. Maybe you're the one ready for the new DMT round.
@@KyleCox404 Is your point that all pastors are the same or that all pastors are smart, or that all situations are equal? Because all are equally dumb.
@@AP-mf4fz stupid.
The great thing about being retired, you really can say “push off” to these people. It's our responsibility as the untouchable few to stand up to this mob
great point!
Quite right. As the retired, we owe it to the rest of humanity to stand up against the woke scum.
Even better, are retired veterans, retired police, retired snipers, retired hunters. The government seems to have lost track of most of us. And most of us are "un-cancelable." Gonna be a shame for 'them' when the Boog starts in earnest. Many, if not most, of us military/police can do one shot kills at 500 yards/meters. Your average hunter can drop a deer at 350 yards/meters with one shot. Gonna be a real shame for 'them...'
Or just not be on social media. What are they going to do, cancel me?
@@reubenmanzo2054 If you're not on social media, how are you going to know about all the things that rile you up?
I was there. I once unemployed for nine months when I had a mortgage and a car payment and I learned how others had power over me. But I got a job which I quickly hated. But I worked hard and did what was right for the business, and I was promoted. So ten years later, I had no debt, and I had money saved and invested, and now I have the power of knowing that I can walk away when I choose and knowing that they can't have power over. That is liberating.
I just ❤ this guy. He is smart, has common sense, street smarts AND book smarts. We need more guys like him making the BIG decisions.
And I love people like you who have the intelligence to realize this. You yourself are important.
Well, not everything he says is smart (talking about other discussions and delusions he has). Same as with any person.
This found your tipping point. Think, yourself, about what this means to you.
@michellemonzingo5357. Odd how people can see things so differently...the first time I heard Jordan Peterson I wondered who this nutbar was....now every time I hear him and read comments by people who somehow seem to like/admire him it scares me that there are so many gullible people out there.
Also moral smart!
I'm not brave, I'm just scared of the right thing. A deeply profound statement.
A true legend of our time
lmao. maybe if your understanding of the world comes from twitter or something. no actually educated person takes this pseudo-intellectual drivel seriously. you will get laughed out of the room if you try to debate these things in a standardized setting.

Is he gay?
@@michaelboyd-gj7gyDo you live under a rock? He’s been married to his wife for many years and has (I think) 3 children.
I mean closeted gay. That could account for his mean disposition.
Dr. Peterson cheers me up. In our day and age, this WOKE taught me about the CIS-Man. These crazy ideologies are hurting my studies. I hate getting painted with a large brush for something I'm not. I spoke up and challenged them. The teacher was shocked!!!😁🤣
You have to continue to push back. You're also the reason why they're employed. These professors aren't as bright as they'd lead you to believe.
Well done 👏 I'm going to teach my children to be critical thinkers first and foremost x
I pointed out that 60% of Memphis’s population was black when my social “sciences” professor claimed the memphis PD (fun fact: 80% black) was racist for pulling over 6 black men out of the 10 cars she saw stopped. She gave me a C on my next paper despite having a near 100% in the class (hence the “” around sciences earlier, they are not science classes).
This discussion hit home for me. In the 1970s I saw the leftists taking over a small liberal arts college where I got my first degree. My history teacher was a frank and open socialist for example. The sociology and Christian thought programs were changing dramatically. I felt they were beyond redemption. Later I worked for the federal government (HHS). I saw that incremental encroachment of the left in government. First there was a big change when Bill and Hillary Clinton took over in the White House. C. Evert Koop had been the Surgeon General, a great man with a big heart. His outlook was replaced with minority and leftist leaning leadership. But...there was a lot of entrenched folks with traditional values and the new crew didn't get everything they wanted. It took 5-10 years to root them out. The phrase "micro-retreats" fits well. I could see it. And I ended up 12 years into a career and doing what Gorden suggested. We made exit plans and got our resumes up to date. I cried sometimes when my friends on the medical staffs were abused and gotten rid of. I saw less and less support from area managers. One of them died of a heat attack shortly after he was fired by a administration who set him up to make it appear he was rebellious. I was falsely accused of abusing children which was total fabrication. And I got no support from area management. And I was rebuked for complaining about a drunk minority physician seeing (ER) patients with slurred speech and reeking of alcohol. She had been a medical student of a liberal minority appointment to a high position in Washington D.C. and had a phone connection she used on a regular basis. Her overly liberal narcotics prescribing practices resulted in a number of deaths. The quality of health care in our clinic tanked. One pivotal point was when I found out she was making large personal loans to poor people in the area we were serving and forgiving the loans if they filed fabricated complaints against staff. Half of the medical staff and half of the pharmacy staff resigned on the same day at the same time. The best half of employees I might add. I remember going to a physician in a neighboring town and told him what I was going through and he kind of smiled and said that he was treating about 1/3 of the staff members I was working with for depression. He wanted to treat me for anxiety and depression. He said he could get me through 8 more years until retirement with medication. But remembered meeting a physician in the hallway shortly before that. I asked her how it was going. She just said "Nine more years, four months, three weeks and...she looked at her watch....four hours until retirement." I would not do that. It was not worth it. So I said nope, no psych meds, I knew how to cure the problem. I had enough. It was time to go. I submitted my resignation along with the many others. I still remember the date after 15 years. We made front page news with a regional newspaper. I stepped into a temporary professional job part time while I incubated a small business idea I had been pondering for decades. It was completely outside of medicine. And I never regretted that decision. I didn't let the golden handcuffs of a lucrative government job trap me. And I am proud of myself for not letting that happen. When a system reaches a certain critical point, it cannot be saved.
Thank you Dr. Peterson you have brought the best of us into the light and made me braver. I stopped censuring myself and I won’t back down to reasonable thoughts. I was becoming everything I hated, nihilistic, cynic and resentful. When I started being more truthful, everything improved. I’m more afraid of the dark that lurks within not standing your ground. Sincerely, thank you.
Appreciation is the kindest word, gift, you can present to Dr. Peterson.
" I won't back down to reasonable thought" is a sentence that sums up this channel quite nice :)
@MTech Of course it's the rich using the worst of woke garbage to divide us, but Peterson won't tell you that because he is, fundamentally, a coward. He'll never attack the oligarchy. He'll never tell you the truth about those who own our politics and our political class.
Let them cancel you and do not care about it. Once enough do the same, cancel "culture" obliterates itself.
You shouldn't backdown to *un*reasonable thoughts.
God bless Dr. Peterson and all those who stand up for the truth and justice. Heard someone say... THERE IS TRUTH & YOU CAN'T CHANGE IT!
Never says a word about the mega rich basically hoovering up all the wealth year on year, yeah that is fine but woke is going to get us..... give me a break lol
Jordan Peterson: an ordinary man with uncommon guts and integrity, spreading extraordinarily valuable truths.
If you stand up for truth and justice you are woke.
What truth?
@@tomsawyer8525 so that means by your logic Jesus is woke . Jesus is not woke as Jesus did not represent one group he represented the world . So therefore woke isn't just someone who supports the truth, woke is a group of people who believe as peterson states "identification politics "
Woke virus already infected my Family, and I don't have anyone to talk to anymore since my father passed away. I don't have anyone to. I guess I will just make myself busy until I perish. I want to thank you Dr. Jordan for being the guide that I need to fight and move forward with Life. You are one of the best Role models for young Men.
Brilliant Dr Peterson, Thank you 🙌 You are One in a Million and we are so lucky to have you and to be able to hear you 🙏✨
I was 55 when I retired early from my position. I was not going to capitulate to the insane woke. Now 3 years on I am convinced I made the right decision.I am satisfied and happier than ever before. Others I stayed in touch with who have conceded to the woke ideology are miserable. J.Peterson is absolutely correct. The consequences of going along with the woke insanity is far worse. Don't be afraid of going your own way. Stand up for truth and what is right, you will be glad you did.
The national laboratory where I worked was 97% democrat. Found out from a statistics site that has data for political contributions. There was no way I could make any headway against the woke movement. I also retired at 55 and now run my own business.
I’m a teacher at a public school. Luckily, I’m in a rural southern town where the Wokeness has not taken over. I’m staying to make sure it doesn’t gain a foothold. Just last week I got an email from a program we use called “edpuzzle”. I used it a few times for a math activity and other teacher use it also. The email was pushing lgbt propaganda and pride month on students. It literally said “use edpuzzle to introduce students to pride”. I forwarded the email to our principal and said this program is no longer appropriate to use in our school. He sent it to the superintendent and just yesterday we got a system wide email saying we are no longer allowed to use edpuzzle. It is possible to fight back but it takes more than 1 person. If everyone keeps their mouth shut we lose. Every teacher in our school got that email but I was the only one that spoke up. Every other teacher I spoke to saw that email and thought it was crazy, but none of them spoke up. I’m staying to do my part.
Thank you for sharing this
@@lesterparker1594 Thanks
Same here,I retired and got out.
Excellent discussion! I was quite bitter with my work, specifically regarding my coordinator and had begun looking at my exit strategy. I had initially estimated that it may take me about 2 years to build another source of income... but when my coordinator had started the same described process to get rid of me, I worked my exit strategy with a level of enthusiasm and zeal that I never had before. One of the best moment I had was submitting my resignation form where the "Retire" box was ticked and this form had also required my supervisor's signature. It was a great moment. I remember reading this line from a few decades ago (but cannot remember where it was from) and it is so true: "Success is one of the best revenge.".
Submitting resumes is really, really depressing. I'm glad Jordan was real about that. I haven't been out of work for quite some time, but I still remember from the last time it happened how much the desperation of being unemployed and the constant rejection beats you down constantly. I was definitely one of those, "at least one a day" people, at least after the first week or two of updating paperwork and finding a bunch of jobs to apply to easily.
It's taken me until this day to be more afraid of personal consequences that will occur if I do not do the thing I need to do than the fear of the consequences of moving forward and doing the thing! How I wish I had done it 20 years ago. How common is that regret? One I never thought I would have.
I'm a Project Manager and was just written up by HR for not quite sure what - based on the fact that I verbally chastised a jr. interior designer for modifying CAD files without notifying the project manager, me. They're worried of losing the jr. interior designer. So I quit. Saved the jr interior designer but lost a project manager with over 20 years experience. Let the little girl do my job.

@Mafoom Beh No, the good ideas are not there, that is why people like Jordan and all his let's say not so smart followers need to be quiet. Culture is evolving and this old farts need to be quiet, and not spread misinformation and cling to 2000 year old ideas that are way past their time. Jordan should go clean his room, get with the times. or just shut the fack up. He has enaugh money as is and he already did enaugh damage to millions of people, when is it going to stop?
It’s rare I screenshot a youtube comment🙌🏻
That sounds clever, but is not completely right. It is important not to let one's opponent control the frame of argument, and it is important to have a positive and productive alternative ready to hand. But it is absolutely necessary to cry "Foul!" when egregious and dangerous ideologues are laying waste to the epistemic institutions of democracy. Just be prepared to provide something better.
@@willmercury When slaves were slaves, setting them free was also dangerous idea for the landlords. The same goes for any progressive movement. Of course right-wing conservatives will take any idea that doesn't agree with their narrow and overly-simplystic world view as "Foul". We live in corporet facism democracy is a sham anyway. Your defending simple-mindedness.
"You can't negotiate with someone, unless you can say no to them. And you can't say no to them, unless you have options!" A totally logical sentence, as well as situation, unfortunately majority of us does not think that far/complex, than try to negotiate and fail, which leads to certain disappointment and retrieval and ultimately loosing at least a part of self-confidence.
No, that's nonsense.
Brilliant and honest enough to wake many people up.
Never apologize to them. It’s like putting blood in the water for sharks. If they are going to try and take you down for standing on truth, might as well go down being on offense. In my experience, they don’t know how to handle you when you square up on them and face them head on. It’s almost like the old saying, game recognizes game.
I would agree with you and he is an inspirational speaker; don't you think?
load of bull crap
Never apologize for telling the truth.
“Are you afraid of changing or of not changing?” 💥 Consider the consequences. Think of your future self. That’s a powerful and necessary thought.
I love you Jordon; because you tell the truth. We need more people who tell the Truth! People with morals, ethics, standards......many of the things we are now missing in this Post Christian society!
Absolutely and stand strong and speak truth ! You and your wife are awesome ! Thank you both 👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏
Ive lost some friends because I realized around 3 years ago that the reason it got as bad as it did is because people like me never pushed back for the last 20 years. I used to quietly accept their condemnation of "white cis males" but the summer of love is what you get when you tacitly accept the BS.
Could it be that they were just idiots rather than an organized group attempting to control your life?
The summer of love? Are you talking about something that happened back in the 1960s?
@@AJ-yw7hf no, that's what conservatives refer ironically to the blm riotesters who were supposedly pushing for unity by burning our cities during 2020
@@AJ-yw7hf I think it was the madness that occurred in Seattle in 2020 when some lunatics hijacked a neighbourhood and wanted to create their own autonomous country.. It was all rosy for a day or two before violence and crime started breaking out within the bubble (pun intended).. Then, the same police they wanted to defund had to step in.
Always wondered what is cis? I've considered it an insult and have seen woke people trying to force the sane to accept this title. So I saw that the woke are very much ' do as I say not as I do'. And are dreadfully authoritarian.
You are describing me sir. I have realized my situation a few months ago and now I am in the change pattern. I left my teaching job of 20 years. It's scary but its better than continuing that situation feeling, as you say, bitter and small. My job also started as one situation then morphed into something that was unjustifiable. I often compare my situation to that of a German government worker in the 1930's. You see the darkness approaching, forced to participate, at a certain point you say, how will history judge me when, god willing, the light arises again. I chose to not perpetuate that darkness.
Good decision. If you live in Canada, your next important decision is to escape while you still can.
I've been seeing so many comments about teachers quitting, and I completely understand it, but it doesn't sound to me like fighting the mob, but just resigning from the fight! And it's actually scary, because that means that the schools will be completely filled only with woke ideology !
@@amarylliscobainthey will be anyways. If you don’t adhere to what the system or the board wants you to teach they’ll just replace you.
@@Rearnold1987 true. All I'm saying is that resigning from your job, is like resigning from the ideology. By no means do I say this is an easy situation to handle.

If you have a problem with something don’t contribute to it. Money or time or etc… But yes I get it. I wish there was an alternative school. Normal. Non woke. Teaching our kids the fundamentals for life and giving them the tools and education they need. I don’t know what the solution is. But if I were a teacher working for a school that had gone and enforced woke teachings, I wouldn’t want to be part of it either and I would resign as well. You could stay.. and try to teach around it but eventually the staff and management higher ups etc would get rid of you/replace you. Idk. It’s a shit show.
Keep it up mate! I hope you never lose your passion for this.
Great suggestions, JB! Good information to take into account regarding job search and/or recruitment efforts used by companies. And mock interviews are invaluable.
I love that Jordan thinks well ahead before he speaks, he takes his time and there's not much he says that isnt already thought out in advance.

As his college I can be more amazed, grateful and teached by this smart, experienced and analytic thinker like him. Keeping it short: "wouw!"
I imagine that being "cancelled" is akin to being neglected as a child. As a victim of childhood neglect and emotional abuse, I can tell you that it is absolutely terrifying. There are a couple of sci-fi movies that bring up those painful memories where an astronaut is outside the ship and his/her tether breaks loose - you're out there in the dark, alone, cut off from all humanity, drifting away, unable to scream because they won't hear you - you're alone and helpless and the panic consumes you -
As a social worker I tried to talk to my supervisor about mandatory training in woke ideology and was simply told let’s change the subject.
Refuse to participate on the grounds that it is inherently Evil and back that up with everything you know:)
Just be honest about how you feel and how you’ll likely respond. Greatest adventure you’ll ever engage in is just being honest with people. Good or bad outcome, you’ll have done the right thing and be a salt for the world in which you walk.
I had to choose to find another job that didn't support it.
What is "woke ideology" and how did you arrive at that definition?
@@stephencollins9062 You seem inherently deficient as a critical thinker, and everything you know would likely fit on the back of a postage stamp in 34-point font.
We have lived in Oklahoma now for 30 years and the amount of administrators in this state has always been ridiculous. If you don't stand up for your values...their values will destroy you with no remorse.
Same here! And it's 💯 true! It's an administrative graveyard!
I've been to therapy and know people who went to the psychiatrist for minor and major problems. I've never experienced or heard of someone so devoted to their patient's wellbeing to actively coach them step by step. In fact there's often little progress if any at all, and tons of money spent. Dr. Peterson is not just a clinical psychologist. He's a model for all health professionals of how to CARE for patients in all senses of the word, proof that you can be fully involved and still never overstep your role, proof that with quality care (that comes from deep respect for people and constant studying and thinking) people CAN get better. I still remember when he said he accompanied a patient to see a corpse being examined (I don't remember the type of procedure) just so she could face her fear. No one does that! No one cares that much. No one has that will to investigate the patients problems trying to understand more. But he cares. He brothers to do it. He doesn't just perform a service, he gets to the core of things and seeks the truth. That's a true health professional and scientist to me, and in a world where most only think of money and their own stability... This blows me away.
Wow ! JP is a true blessing to us. I want to follow in his footsteps, too.
Such a smart man. So able to articulate the whole situation and most logical remedy to it.
Bro I am taking my stand!! I’m a little ashamed I’ve been holding back but I’m doing my best rn, and all my content aligns with who I am. I’m DONE trying to avoid upsetting people. Some people need to be upset. The reason I’m here and able to start this work is cause I took your advice and looked in the mirror.
The woke and their supporters need to be made upset. Constantly. Only then will they be seen as anti social idiots. So don't hold back the truth.
Congratulations! Keep the courage!
So…please provide an example. I would LOVE to hear your definition of woke and how it has hurt your feelings and need to re-establish your safe space.
Thank you from Canada, Mr. Peterson! You've changed my life for the better. Hopefully I can follow in your foot steps and enlighten the wonky woke weirdo world! Thank you
and what exactly does "woke" mean?
@@ecco_ alert about racial prejudice or discrimination
@@drbubonic4942no
Woke used to mean switched on and grounded in reality I thought. It's not the word I would use but nowadays being woke is about putting everyone who isn't white or of a real gender on a pedestal ahead of the majority in society
@Ecco the Dolphin it's exactly what the guy below you said. It's simply being away of racial and social injustices. If you don't believe us, simply look in a freaking dictionary. If you're not woke, you're the problem.
Oh. My! Where were you 40 years ago, in my life..we need more people with backbone like Mr. Fantastic Professor Jordan Peterson. ...and is never too late to build "NO" power!!! Ty ty ty ...for your audacity. . you are so right, so true!!!
What's really wonderful about Dr. Peterson's approach with helping his clients with their challenges is breaking down those challenges by couching every step of the way as a choice. "Yes it's hard to do/not do X, but it is harder than doing/not doing Y?" That empowers the person - gives them a reasonable choice that they can either handle, or know they can't handle right now but can get helped with.
Having my own business and no longer being an employee and not having to go through woke seminars has been a blessing. If you are at a woke company just quit. If can’t quit slowly work on your own business on the side until you have 50% of the salary you had before and jump ship. There are a lot of businesses you can start if you save some money and put some effort into it. You will control your time, not have to go to woke seminars, and your quality of life will go up by a lot. 100% worth it. I make 1/3 of what I use to make I just spend less, eat at home, smart drive making sure no wasted trips to stores etc to save gas, and now actually have time for friends and family. Money is not happiness. Having time to do what you want when you want and not have some some idiot boss breathing down your neck is happiness.
What businesses can you start if you save?
I'll warn people that self employment doesn't mean you won't have to work hard but you will be working hard for your family and a self directing future.
@@molten5756 The savings is backup for the salary you're not getting. Other savings (or investment) is determined by the type of business you have. You would look for things you like to do or have skills you could explore then do them. Don't think about franchising and needing loans to buy-in. If you need money for "things" then start small and build. My experience was to start a sign shop. When I began there weren't computers and we painted by hand. It's becoming a lost art but it only requires substrates, brushes, paint and a few other miscellaneous supplies. Murals would require ladders for example. Electric signs would, OTOH, high tech equipment, a bucket truck, an electrician and lots of insurance. It's all relative. The latter carries more risk. Other ideas of skills would be a welder, a seamstress and a plumber. The only job you can't get fired from is your own. Beware that a socialist government would create any regulations and hurdles for sovereign entities... Most "careers" require lots of student loans.
JP at his best and a reasonable length for once! Great that he acknowledges Douglas Murray too.
Great information Dr. Peterson, love your work.
Now that us what you call a full answer. Ask ine question, 30 minute gripping answer. Love JP, a total modern inspiration.
"NO means : If you keep doing that, something you do not like will happen to you with 100% certainty." "NO means : I can take more torture from you than you are willing to dish out." Damn, I love those!!
Thank you doctor Peterson, it needs to be said. You keep me level during these unstable times 😊✌
Thanks for the resumee chat, I got some feedback (sort of) there. I wrote more then 10 blocks of paper, analyzing myself vs. employer. I listened and listened. Finally I got to my rubicon, I told them my truth. A few days later I was superfluous, so they said at least. That´s honesty for you!
My first job out of college was a nightmare. I spent eight years there before finally resigning, but the effect it had on me has been lasting. It changed who I was. And I am not talking about woke ideologies. More along the lines of not suffering fools and thinking you're the smartest person in the room. So, when in anyone asks, I warn them. Don't let your job change you. I wish somebody had told me the same thing when I was young. I can't imagine what would've happened to me if I was graduating from college today.
Do NOT depend on anyone else to come to your aid. My husband & I joined a group fighting our local school board, years ago. They were doing some pretty unethical stuff with the finances & trying to close/shuffle school populations to hide it. A rather large group protested & took them to task. As soon as the board got on to us, & started firing back, most of the 'supporters' dissipated. There were 3 of us left - me, my husband, & and the gentleman who spearheaded the whole fight. We fought alone & suffered being ostracized, ridicule, and self doubt. The board did what they wanted, steam rolled us & laid low for 4 years. they then dredged it up again & closed another building. They learned from our tactics. They pounced on the few parents who mounted a resistance immediately & did everything so last minute that there was no time for parents to group. We had tried to warn them 4 years before.. They came to us looking for help & it was denied. I reevaluated my 'resume' as he is saying. I pulled my kids out and homeschooled them. You need to evaluate the negative energy you are devoting to things. It was worth it to me to be ostracized, put all the energy I was expending in fighting them into teaching my kids myself. My kids learned valuable lessons from this.
This is what more parents will have to do, we have to vote with our feet and our money. Nothing else will work. If children are no longer in schools because they are being home schooled, why do we need the public school system. Therefore why should tax payers pay for it. I applaud you for homeschooling your kids. I'm sure it's not easy, but I'm also sure your kids are getting a lot better education. You are a great example of what action it is going to take to make things better.
And I imagine they (your kids) got an actual Education.
@@cavscout62 Yes. One just graduated a year ago & is doing fantastic in Cosmetology school. She paid her own way, bought her own car, laptop, phone, insurance, etc... She consistently does better than her classmates in cosm. school on the written work & the hands on work. She knows how to manage her time & stick to. She says the other women give up when it doesn't come easy the first time & have trouble following directions. She votes, can handle all her own banking, and has pretty good critical thinking skills. I feel fairly confident about my choice to remove them from public schools, especially when I see what their old friends are up to.
Thank you for your sacrifice, energy and bravery. Nothing done in truth and goodwill is ever wasted. You’ve shown your children a backbone of values and it matters for our next generation of engagement when all of this gets REAL worse.

"People have complimented me on my bravery which is something I'm not particularly comfortable with because I don't think it's the right way of thinking about it's not how I think about it I think now “I'm just afraid of the right thing” it's not that I'm brave I'm way more afraid of not saying what I have to say than I am of saying it and the consequence of saying what I have had to say have been traumatic and sometimes very painful as all and also extremely rewarding both of those at the same time but I know perfectly well what the consequence of not saying what you have to say." - Jordan Peterson, May 2023 That right there. That is a master class perspective of looking at moral obligation.
I love how he takes the question really seriously and gives a very thorough, complete and realistic answer
One of the best speakers i ever listen to.
I refuse to be silent, I watched this coming for decades I was vocal and no one took it seriously. Now things are right on the edge, how many will to open their eyes and mind's hopefully enough. Hard times bring hard men hard men bring soft times, soft time bring soft men and soft men bring hard times! 🤠👍🇭🇲
Your answer for schools is spot on! When I left the public school as a level III teacher assistant due to disability this hiring of more administrators was happening. We were fighting for pay increase and were denied, then all of a sudden we had 3 administrator positions get filled. I saw the woke ideology coming and will not comprise my values/beliefs. Stand strong.
How is this woke ideology?
God bless you, your wife, and your daughter. I am so encouraged by you and learn so very much helpful, meaningful, truthful and strategic character building methods. Thank you so very much.
Truth: There is no benevolent God. Or do you accept that God lets children die of cancer or children be born with severe disabilities.
Mr. Peterson, thank you! keep fighting!
I love this man. He is wise, ethical, truthful, highly moral, his words are put together for people to understand what you are speaking about.
He's an idiot. ... typo before.
how can peterson claim "it isn't that the bible is true, it's that the bible is the precondition for the manifistation of truth and I think this is not only literally the case, factually, I think it can't be any other way" then in other lectures he claims we get hierarchies from millions of years of evolution, lobsters etc ? peterson contradicts himself so clearly that we on the left know he is a lying grifter and nothing more.
Yep, another hack that speaks and profits off the ignorant, and uneducated
he is a ditz
So lucid and articulate. Thank you for caring enough to give a thoughtful response to the question and not just a platitude.
Thank you So Much!!!❤
GREAT Dr Jordan, excellent. Good on you !!! Kind regards from New Zealand. (Dr Andries Maritz).
The most priceless distillation of information I have glimpsed since I first interacted with the Internet in 1991.
"Speak your piece, even if your voice trembles." I read that somewhere as a kid, and I ignored it for years as an adult. Well I almost turned into a homicidal maniac as a result of not speaking out against injustice and madness. Speak your piece, no matter how uncomfortable. You have a right to have your thoughts heard.
💯!
Amazing, metered speaker. I love listening to him. I've never seen him set off course by conflict. Wish I had his talents.
fabulous. erudite and eloquent. thank you.
I think, to summarize what Jordan said, the answer to "How do I stand up to woke ideologies without being cancelled?" is, You cannot have both of those things. If you're going to stand up to evil, you should imagine the worst consequence you can think of, and act as if that is guaranteed to happen, and prepare for it. That's harsh. But it's less harsh than what will happen to you if you let the evil grow so big that you can do nothing to stop it from destroying you.
yeah that was funny. he's like - basically you can't so learn another job.
The issue is… how do you define woke and then after you define it who is actually the evil ideology. Personally, just as an example. If vaccinations are considered woke, then those speaking out against vaccinations are evil and it resulted in the only death in my family due to Covid-19 (she watched Fox/conservative media and was convinced to not get vaccinated and died). So how do you define woke and then we can really drill down to good vs grey vs evil.
You can always support those who are taking action for your cause even if you yourself are too afraid to take any action to defend yourself. The good guys need support.
This was helpful for me as a care aid who worked in this type of environment. 😢 I hope things get better for care aid workers. ❤
Always good to hear different perpecrives
Excellent to hear JP speak off the cuff on subjects like this. I am always worried when i discuss government over-reach with so many of my friends who lean towards big govt and central control aka totalitarian communism. They have not thought through where this well meaning ideology of "fairness " ends up....
It ends up battering the world, so yeah since conservatives don't like to make things batter, I understand why they would not like that. And there is no such thing is totalitarian communism since communism implies there are NO HIERCHIES, and totalitarianism by definition is a Hiearchy, but agian, you don't know anything since you are a JP fan, so I'm wasting my time.
My sixty five year old uncle retired last year from about forty of teaching. He is very young at heart and fit for his age so never came across as 'old' in his profession. He told me was more than glad to go, as the twisted ideological directives were getting the better of him. He's the last of his kind I would say.
Teachers teach “facts”. Some facts are ok, but some are ideological, and therefore unpalatable.But this issue will persist until we ask teachers to teach critical, curious, thinking, and to allow dissenting ideas.
I love you Mr. J Perterson. You are very important for us.
I was once told to ask myself "Is it kind? Is it true? Is it necessary" The truth isn't always kind but it is always necessary.
A person who is intelligent, experienced and courageous is a helluva force to be reckoned with. Ty Dr. Peterson.
This is gold! Years go I got (comparatively lighty) cancelled at an inconvenient time in my life in my workplace for basically (non-woke) authoritarian/policy reasons. They couldn't even find one reason to fire me, having simply stood up against dangerous and unethical practice. So the group of people in charge started to basically bully or slander me. My colleagues thankfully stopped doing those thousands of micro-retreats. My hospital department was being run into the ground in a nose-dive, patients' lives were seriously endangered, me and a handfull of my colleagues fought back, yet to no avail, so having to leave wasn't a bad outcome, even though it hurt. To this day, my old workplace is in shambles. Cancelling me was a stupid decision that backfired and cost them even more employees and reputation in the long run. I think Iwas pushed off the sinking ship in time. Thankfully I work in a field with severe personnell shortage, as I was referred to a place with much more liberty within days. It nevertheless took me a good year to process that experience. My point is: what he says here about facing a mob that bullies you is 100% true. Preparation is key, if you've got the time. “Never apologize for something you haven’t done or take a knee to the mob. They always come back for more”. Fight back but with Sun Tzu.
As Coach Corey Wayne said, " The best negotiating position to be in is being able to walk away and mean it!" This way one doesn't have to put up with a crappy work situation.
Thank you Jordan for educating me and your superb eloquence, I see you as fair and decent and nothing political,
I’ve got a spine for a fight. I just wrote BRING IT ON earlier today. It’s already been brutal for me for decades and I’ve barely survived. I’ve always been silenced by manipulations of others, but didn’t realize it. Thank you Jordon, I’ve been listening to you for about 8 months and kindred you are.
So, to sum it up : instead of fearing the consequences of your actions, be more afraid of the consequences of your inactions.
Civilisationally too.
he is saying HE is more afraid of that, and you might consider fearing that (coercive silence) more TOO. Avoidance being the easier response should be a flag that something necessary needs to be said to prevent far worse consequences for self and others in the future. Mobs offer weak people safety in numbers. Be an individual willing to say NO (have options), though it is admittedly a reasonable fear to stand up to greater numbers armed with their lies, deceit, and reputation destruction. Your wellbeing is at stake and you pay a price either way. Set yourself up so you don't get forced into complicity (victims of abuse neglect, etc. being easy targets for mobs, preying on good natures/intentions to justify evils). People might ask themselves why bother telling the truth. Peterson. Best to watch/hear it and be grateful we live in a society that still allows us to do so, so that we oversimplify. What consequences will your and my choice to speak here on this video have? Did it take courage? Would the world be better off for it, and why?
TRUTH is the Answer, if you speak TRUTH. You will never be with the mob. The Mob is a falsehood. The War is for each of us to face. If we fear the woke, because of their morals, we are right. But, I fear GOD much more. These are perilous times. The War we face as individuals combined with a social uprising of the sodomites. The Pedophiles, the grooming of kids. These Crimes against humans must be stopped for humans to survive. The next generation will be completely lost to lust and odd proclivities. It is now! The world is run by a group of creepy pedophiles, who have compromised most people in positions of power. That is what falsehood does, until it doesn’t. This world is lost, 66.6 percent of this world is corrupt. 1/3 are sitting out the destruction and will miss out on the second death. Accept JESUS, read the Bible with a goal. New Jerusalem in a new spiritual body. The Gospel of CHRIST is to live in TRUTH. To forgive as you hope to be forgiven, love as you hope for love. Be a straight arrow. Spread TRUTH with love. Be strong and kind!
You and I are on the same page! I am MORE afraid of NOT saying what MUST be said, than of the consequences of telling the TRUTH.
I just can't comprehend the way that I admire the expertise of Jordan. God bless him!
