This is a video about the most dangerous question.
00:00:16.940
Not just dangerous to pose, but dangerous to answer incorrectly,
00:00:30.000
This is a question that Jordan Peterson won't even ask,
00:00:36.340
even though his two greatest influences answered it successfully.
00:00:45.100
This is a video about how we can answer the question correctly
00:00:50.680
so that it does not damn us as it has damned so many.
00:00:55.340
Because if you don't answer this question with the right process,
00:01:03.940
So let's talk about these two men, Marx and Freud,
00:01:12.900
Well, I believe it was Ryan Falk who first quipped that we are all Marxists these days.
00:01:24.180
You know, it's one thing to point at the horrors of the last century.
00:01:30.440
It's another thing to point to the deluded fools that still follow that madman.
00:01:36.180
Again, they tend not to get too high up in the rungs of power.
00:01:42.220
And you could argue that certain organizations, you know, possibly the EU, possibly the UN,
00:01:56.020
What terrifies me is that we're all Marxists these days.
00:02:03.900
Go back two centuries and take a person at random.
00:02:09.780
They did not consider themselves part of the proletariat or part of the working class or part of the capitalist class.
00:02:19.240
No, if you asked them who they were, how they identified themselves,
00:02:23.020
they'd say, well, I'm an Englishman and I'm a Londoner and I'm an Anglican.
00:02:28.140
Their definition of their personhood was based upon the network of relationships that they had.
00:02:41.940
These days, these days our definition of ourselves stems first and foremost from the group which we are a part of,
00:03:03.660
We divide ourselves along racial lines, along sexual lines.
00:03:11.740
And everybody is in competition with everybody else.
00:03:16.900
Rather than working as part of an organic nation state,
00:03:20.840
as an organic whole of one people and one culture,
00:03:24.760
instead, we fight against the people of our own nations.
00:03:30.120
We struggle against them to try and have one over them.
00:03:48.880
your typical psychologist will say, oh, we don't follow Freud anymore.
00:04:13.320
they dismissed a couple of the far-out-there theories that Freud had,
00:04:32.060
So, yeah, psychology is still Freudian psychology.
00:04:41.600
that all men want to sleep with their mothers and daughters,
00:04:47.420
They've kind of dismissed those weird parts of Freud.
00:04:51.600
But it's not the psychologists that really worry me.
00:04:55.600
Quite frankly, psychologists can't even make up their mind.
00:04:57.880
They change what everything is in each new DSM.
00:05:17.200
Now, it's interesting to note, you know, we're talking about Marx,
00:05:21.100
how we're all defined by income, race, sex, etc.,
00:05:46.380
So, you've got the surfers, and you've got the punks,
00:05:58.340
And by the way, all these groups are competing with one another
00:06:07.880
So, Bernays, he's operating off the same sort of theory.
00:06:13.980
Same sort of divide and conquer theory as Marx, isn't he?
