>wagecuck
not all work is wagecucking, wagecucking is an acceleration of your death for little reward and the immediate death of your spirit.
work is something different and you may not even be paid well for fulfilling work, you need to face and overcome adversity in your life, that could take any form from building a successful business that employs lots of people, pushing your physical boundaries in a sport or going on a killing spree to take out your enemies.
neets who sit about all day posting wagie memes are no more empowered in their lives, they are just as dependent on a system that wants them to take as little stake in the world as possible.

neets have the potential to do almost anything but that potential is wasted, most neets have too much free time, which means theres an every expanding black hole of time to dump plans in to called the future.
>ive been meaning to watch that mozart biography for a while, ill do it tomorrow

wagie is just as unmotivated, they blame their lack of accomplishments on the time handed over to shekelstein, they always have an excuse to do nothing when they are 'off', its their time to relax after all.

I don't really like Peterson.

He is a traditionalist.

He wants to enforce monogamy (or so he said).

I don't want to enforce anything. And especially not by the state who cuck us young whites with immigration, femminism etc...

As men, we need to stop being complacent with women behavior. But we don't need the state, or anybody for that matter, to help us in that doing. Only ourselves.

In any case, the state is failing us and will never be useful again. No need to count on that.

They're all sophists at the end of the day. If you listen to them all for a week and try to summarize what each of them is actually, concretely about, you probably wouldn't come up with anything except broad and relatively common sense advice.

Again, rationalization. At least Peterson looked onto issues like that in a total manner, with no remorse for anyone and no stone unturned. Not latching onto meme teachings of old.

peterson would call this 'logos', order from chaos. it's a hell of a lot more than common sense. i've considered making watts cellphone cases and t-shirts for when the masses wake up to his lectures. there was a huge spike in interest a few years ago when his work was featured in some hollywood movie, and he'll be popularised again. can't wait.

I hope you screencap your post and look back on it in ten years and realize how cringe this is. I was thinking about writing out all the reasons why, but I realize you're already in too deep to change your mind. It'll come to you with time.

>>12562468
Not really. I can do what Peterson does just with the objects around me. Look, here's a salt and pepper shaker on my table. Notice how they represent the light and the dark, and like salt and pepper, they're universal to all cultures. Salt is a necessary nutrient to the human body, like your requirement to enter the realm of order and do good deeds. And notice how the salt shaker is comprised of thousands of grains of salt - each a good deed, adding up to the sum total of the shaker itself. But you have to be careful not to put too much salt on your food - because now your desire for order has turned you into the tyrannical king, and you've made your food inedible. You need salt and pepper in balance to make your food taste best, and in the right amounts, just like you need order and chaos in the right amounts. Clean your room bucko! Read Solzhenitsyn! Don't forget to do my self-authoring program!

Whatever you say my man. Just remember, ten years ago, everyone thought Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris were the irrefutable gods of logic. Now the pendulum has swung the other way and the internet wants meaning because it accidentally killed God during it's awkward teen years. Peterson is the flavor of the month intellectual trend. I think you'll look back on him in ten years in the same way you look back on Dawkins and wonder what you were thinking.

But you do you.

Who the hell thought that. What kind of unthinking crowd are you associating with.
Point is that this chain of thinkers tend to build upon each other in a way that allows the current tendencies to surface in the intellectual world and counter the ideas of old. The ideas are never in a vacuum, or they are only for the classes that are separated in their neat little bubbles. Those need the ideas in a way they can understand, predigested into an ideology so they can shape the world as the masses demand using the power that they wielded since birth.
