And we no longer have to wonder how it was that the Germans would just follow orders. In every group there can be people willing to abuse and mistreat others, and who think nothing of it.
For all his faults, Jordan Peterson goes down that road, coming to the conclusion that if he was in that same situation as an Auschwitz guard, he'd may well have done the same thing.
It was bigger than that. He states that if you were in Nazi Germany, you were 99% likely to also be a Nazi. The people who stood up against the regime were VERY rare. And mostly because they killed dissidents. So, to survive, most went along to get along.
he makes the case about human psychology, how we each are vulnerable to group think and the pressure to conform can make people do unspeakable things.
he disabused his student of their delusions of heroism, shocked them to be totally honest with themselves. we'd have a LOT more brownshirts today if it were not for Peterson.

There's a 101yr old camp guard currently on trial in Germany
and most likely had nothing to fucking do with the Nazis
GOD DAMN EU is full of Zionist pieces of shit
The way you worded that seems to overblow his faults. He has his faults, but he is more properly aligned than most of us.
Last I heard, he was pushing for everyone to take the vax. I respect the guy, but we can't be afraid to call people out for when they're wrong.
If you've got a source for that I would like to see it. That's not OK.
I also would like a source to see that.
didn't mean it that way, I've learned a lot from his lectures.
Agreed

I don't understand why you're getting down votes. And I have a lot of respect and admiration for Jordan Peterson
Because he is now on enemy side.
This is the 2nd most incredible thing I've discovered since Q started posting. I really thought people were better than this. God please help us all.
