Jordan Peterson: Gender Pronouns and Free Speech War

Interesting that in the sequel to CALLING OUT Bravo-7, Beyond Bravo-7, JBP has a Truth soundbite 2 min in, and then his full thought that begins with "Nietzsche said" is expressed @3:13 - 5:11.

Beyond Bravo-7 is a 2:47:35 video. It is an amazing collection of extremely pertinent events and machinations that have brought forth the world as it is today. Jordan Peterson was chosen for the final words of this extraordinary, history revealing video.
 
Well, my post couldn't have been more timely:

Jordan Peterson: Nietzsche, Hitler, God, Psychopathy, Suffering & Meaning | Lex Fridman Podcast #448

Could be wrong, it was either written by Robert Waite in his book the The Psychopathic God: Adolf Hitler, or in The Psychology of Dictatorship' by Gilbert (think the former), and that was in how many soldiers tucked a copy of Nietzsche's book into their rucksacks as they marched to do battle, although the reference may have been WWI, yet WWII would suit.

The flip side today, is that some, like JP, can whistle Nietzsche as prisoners behind the 'walls' are exterminated in Gaza - to say go get em, Bibi, or whatever it was, it is not a war of invaders, its the very worst fist of human butchery.

As for Nietzscheism in Israel, there is a past fit:

FROM RIGHT TO LEFT: ISRAEL ELDAD AND NIETZSCHE’S RECEPTION IN ISRAEL
Abstract: The seven volumes of Nietzsche translated to Hebrew by Israel Eldad (1910 – 1996) in the1960’s and 1970’s established him as a major Israeli scholar of Nietzsche. Not only was Eldad a brilliant translator; he was also an innovative commentator. His instructive reading of Nietzsche made a decisive contribution to the propagation of Nietzschean discourse in Israel. As one of the leaders of LEHI, the Hebrew underground against the British before the founding of the State of Israeli, Eldad was considered a radical intellectual of the Israeli right and had a Messianic vision of the future of Israel. His outlook was influenced deeply by the Nietzschean Lebensphilo-sophie. In this article I will trace the role of Nietzsche in Eldad’s political biography, Messianic philosophy and intellectual enterprise.

More on Eldad:

Israel (Scheib) Eldad was born in 1910 in Eastern Galicia. He enrolled for religious studies at the Rabbinical Seminary of Vienna and completed his doctorate on “The Voluntarism of Eduard von Hartmann, based on Schopenhauer” at the University of Vienna. He joined the staff of the Teachers Seminary in Vilna in 1937 and rose in the ranks of the rightist Jewish youth movement “Betar” to the position of regional staff officer. When World War II broke out, Scheib escaped from Warsaw together with Menachem Begin, who became Israel’s Prime minister in 1977. He arrived in Mandatory Palestinein 1941 and joined the Lehi underground movement in opposition to the British authorities. “Eldad ”was one of several aliases Scheib adopted while living underground, and it became the name by which he is remembered. After Lehi founder Avraham Stern was killed by the British, Eldad became one of a triumvirate of Lehi commanders. For the next six years he wrote articles for various underground newspapers, some of which he edited. He also wrote some of the speeches delivered in court by Lehi de-fendants. Eldad was arrested by the British while fleeing a Tel Aviv apartment and was imprisoned in Jerusalem
 
I also clicked on the time stamp for the psychopathy part of the conversation. Lex introduces the concept of psychopathy from the point of view of how you would interview Putin in order to ask the right questions to expose him as a psychopath.
I skipped to the part on psychopathy and while listening to JP, I kept thinking how old he looks - in a aligning with evil kind of old. His posture and how he looked very condescending in general was like watching Obama talk. When I was watching his old lectures, there was some spark in him that has died now and only thing that is left is a shell of a bitter old man.
 
I also skipped to the psychopathy time stamp in that Fridman - Peterson interview. Petersen admits that he can be charmed by a psychopath in an interview, said that he wanted to avoid interviewing some. His producers told him, however, that since the interview would be aired, the audience would sort it out. Petersen then says that the audience generally does pick up the red flags with a good degree of accuracy.






Right there, he has a hint about the value of networking.

I commented on the YouTube vid, basically saying that if you want to identify a psychopath, you don’t focus on what they say but on what they do, and that if you can’t tell Netanyahu’s a psychopath then you don’t have any credibility as a clinical psychologist.
 
I took almost a clean break from Peterson for maybe a year or two. Now, while watching his interview, it is difficult not to bring in politics.

What if it's some Palestinian kid we're not encouraging?

What if Gazans or Lebanese people can't explore and participate in infinite play within the proper constraints? Constraints on genocide, for instance?

Why are we turning Palestinians into Job? Are we Satan in this scenario, asking God to prove the worth of Palestinians?

There may be sadistic malevolence in ourselves, which delights in mayhem, and this can lead to PTSD, says Peterson. Are we actively trying to give ourselves PTSD, then?

A little consistency goes a long way.

Wonder who he was referring to....Did he ever interview Andrew Tate?
