That's the problem.>> <<@mauriciorv228 says : Jordan is right. Libertarians fail to understand that humans are humans and we live in a society where at some point we all benefit from each other to different degrees. Extreme individualism that demonizes social programs and laws the regulate standards in the workplace are the downfall of societies just as bad as a hardcore socialists. Countries that have a better balance of state and economic freedom thrive like Sweden or Switzerland. Underlying capitalism but strong welfare states.>> <<@R888-x2f says : Very stupid assessment by Peterson>> <<@SouthernAztecHalfling says : I hope Shapiro paid you a ton of money for your soul. Lots of young men used to look up to you>> <<@chad2097 says : Bro has no idea, what he is yapping about>> <<@hibernian87 says : There is no freedom without responsibility.>> <<@ywtcc says : Liberalism and Libertarianism are both based on the same deception - when they're talking about "freedom" and "liberty" they're talking about power in a backhanded way. Instead of free will and choices, imagine that you're thinking in terms of questions and answers. A question is something that occurs to you, it's when you don't know what the answer is, but have several candidates, that you appear to have choices. There are questions we like asking, and questions we don't. Having choices isn't always a good thing, it just means you don't know what the right answer is. Freedom is an empty concept in a deterministic universe, it's neither good nor bad, it's based on an inability to determine. The reason it's a popular concept politically is it's a deceptive way to talk about power, which is why Liberal and Libertarian politicians end up being doublespeaking power fiends.>> <<@ywtcc says : The bigger problem with Libertarians is when they apply their principles to intra governmental issues. A limited Federal government is completely compatible with slaveowning states. It eventually descends into big government autocracy when you limit government's ability to limit government.>> <<@suteerthvajpeyi-og6eg says : Mr. Jordan Peterson is, I believe in the wrong here. I agree that we need laws. Rules that prohibit fouls and unjust moves. But what I do have issue with is the means Mr. Peterson chooses to enforce these rules namely a state. Let me define a state in non emotive terms. A state is an institution granted sovereign authority over a jurisdiction to redress offences, adjudicate disputes, make laws and raise the requisite funds for its operation through taxation. Sovereign authority means that no other authority can question or interfere with the execution of its decisions. The making of laws part i.e. the legislative part is not of much dispute. All agree that most of the principles of justice are not subject to change the way physics or chemistry is subject to change. Ideals or norms do not change, only their application to situations does. For this reason, a permanently operative legislature is a standing threat to liberty and a conduit for horrible abuses of power. What about a temporary one ? That too is a (lesser) threat to individual rights for at the time of drafting of these laws even if one person turn out to be corrupt, of questionable integrity or even simply short-sighted, then you are doomed. So what do you do ? You need laws but not through a legislature. What are the other sources of law besides a legislature ? Custom, contracts and treaties. The first requirement for any law is that it ought to be equally applicable to all. So if a person openly says "I do not believe in laws against theft.", then he is saying that all property including his own house, clothes, car and so forth is up for grabs ! No smart but evil person will openly reject the laws. Rather, they will pay lip service to such laws and hypocritically violate them whenever they get the opportunity to do so. All who are openly anti-social are typically isolated by the wary public via house arrest or banishment for in a radically liberal society, every inch of land is owned by an individual or a group of individuals and they have the sanction to throw out any trespasser on their property. Turning to the problem of how to deal with hypocritic occasional offenders in absence of a single sovereign authority. Won't it lead to violent clashes ? No country, no organization benefits from a state of perpetual conflict. So at the very outset there will be a high demand to prevent conflict from becoming the norm for purely selfish reasons. Each authority thus will at least try to resolve a dispute as quickly as possible to prevent damage to itself. One way to do that might be via a system of voluntary progressive lord-vassal (or to put it in less feudal terms judge-disputant) relationships. 2 vassals pledging allegiance to the same lord might easily resolve their differences by arbitration via a common authority. Two lords sign treaties to assure that there is no mutually assured destruction when their vassals enter into dispute. Some heirarchies may be complex, some simple. I am not saying that there will be no true fights. Humans are too aggressive for that. But at least the incentive will be to end them as quickly as possible. Also the authorities will not be using weapons of mass destruction such as were employed during the 2 world wars.>> <<@Randomhumaan says : So what kind of person believes that everyone should be entitled the rules of the game? Edit: I’m talking about tax and legal loopholes that only the elite and ultra wealthy “get away with”. It seems that people only care about not relying on the government when THEY aren’t in that desperation>> <<@LeftCoins says : Freedom requires material conditions>> <<@JD-os2kr says : Cool, enjoy your delusional analysis>> <<@SODSigma6789 says : Revolution is what is required. This will require a viable third party candidate. We can’t just keep shuffling around Republicans and Democrats anymore. George Carlin called it over 30 years ago…..”garbage in, garbage out”.>> <<@alex_rose3930 says : Nah, the problem with so many of them is that they have no problem to allign with something incredibly statist as a republican>> <<@IlIentente says : Herc aspect needs the geb treatment where he smacks boulders with his club at people, replace his shoulder charge with an ability that throws his teammate, his pull with a big knock up in a line and enemies close to him get yeeted away, his stim with a stacking damage buff instead of a heal and finally... his ult should be that he can pick any character and throw them for a guaranteed crit on the enemy thrown and susbsequent targets, or if its an ally thrown, they get damage mitigation for a short duration. :)>> <<@tarotqueen9118 says : "Revolutionary anarchy" Dont threaten me with a good time!>> <<@YirelOfDarkness says : And the Liberals struggle with defining what a Woman is 😭>> <<@CowboyWill3 says : He missed on this one. Law and order, societal structure and rules that prevent anarchy are supported by Libertarian Right. We are not anarchists.>> <<@joshuamoore8042 says : Absolutely not!!! You are 100% wrong. Libertarians do have rules. The limits of your freedom is when you interfere with another person’s freedom and the rules of society should only govern what happens when you infringe on another’s rights.>> <<@DanHBExplained says : Freedom has no definition without it's minimum rules. A lack of belief in the free market is a lack of belief of the concept of freedom itself.>> <<@JohnDoe-gq6yg says : My view is this, libertarianism is really an ideal, in practice it just means the minimum amount of government intervention in the lives of citizens as possible and streamlined, reduced government spending and by extension taxation along with the focus of said spending being on the country instead of foreign aid for everyone under the sun.>> <<@RaisonDetre96 says : The biggest thing about libertarian detractors is that they almost always mischaracterize libertarian positions. Grifter Peterson is no exception.>> <<@alterangel says : No. Its not that "everything will work out for the best". It's that everyone will be more free. And what is "best" for you, may not be "best" for me. So let's have more freedom to choose what's "best" for each of us.>> <<@whade62000 says : Oh this clown. As if I'd accept any advice from Peterson on anything>> <<@OpalsJones says : this is a bad take. there are rules in the free market.>> <<@Dan-wi3mq says : It sounds like peterson is confusing libertarianism with anarchism.>> <<@reichen609 says : Wow... he's still alive... Why.... 😕>> <<@javierbayon741 says : Damn people are dumb, the thing about not having a working government is that people will take advantage of the "freedom" of choice and will exploit people with less resources that's why the US is governed by big companies and Epsteins in the back and people are so dumb to blame the government. If you're government is weak it's the people's choice for it to be that way, also when you base your entire ideology on hating everything about communism, don't be surprised to eventually find yourself working 16 hours a day without weekends and if you think that won't happen to you because everything work out eventually just remember how car companies or maybe other sectors act with competitors who want a share in the market>> <<@libertarianesque8645 says : I am truly disappointed that Jordan Peterson would stoop to this level of strawmanning. Libertarian's do not believe we should have no rules at all. Just those which prevent fraud or harm to others. We agree that unless theft and assault are punished, society is impossible. Pretending all Libertarians are anarchists is intellectually dishonest. No one is saying what Peterson here claims they are saying.>> <<@Paul_The_Beav says : Everyone wants to judge other parties based on the dumbest members and their own party based on the smartest members. Of course there are lots of dumb libertarians. Now try debating Rand Paul.>> <<@TwilightxKnight13 says : What most analysts fail to acknowledge is that most people are not radical members of any political party. Even Peterson, who I generally agree with, falls into the trap of painting the moderate majority with the same broad brush as the radical fringes. Whether they be the classic liberal, the traditional conservative, or an "enlightened" libertarian, the majority of people exist in the moderate middle with "leanings." Most liberals do not believe in restricted speech even though the radical progressives want to ban so-called hate speech. Most conservatives do not want prayer in public schools even though the radical right keeps pushing it. Most Libertarians don't want open/unrestricted immigration and completely unregulated drug legality even though the radical anarchists do. The difference between people is their leaning. I lean away from liberal because their their platform is too steeping in entitlements and I believe in a more Darwinism approach. Adults do not need the government to protect them from their own stupidity. I lean away from conservatives because their platform is too steeped in religion and I do not believe in the existence of a divine being. They are too eager to foist their personal morality on others. I lean towards Libertarianism because personal liberty as the foundation of our country is paramount to me. I want the strongest possible adherence to personal freedom and liberty that we can manage. I am not opposed to some government regulation, but we have waaay too much of it. Our founding fathers did not expect the rampant bureaucracy we have due to congresses' delegation powers that has generated more than 100,000 pages of regulations most of which have never received congressional scrutiny. I am a moderate Libertarian and proud of it. I do not have to embrace the most radical Libertarian ideals to be one. I certainly do not support an utter lack of laws and complete anarchy. That is as idiotic as to suggest that just because someone is Liberal that they support Communist/Socialist USSR, or that just because someone is conservative they believe that there should be no entitlement programs of any kind and everyone should be required to attend church on Sunday.>> <<@andreosincero says : That's why most of the libertarian work it's to transform the word culturally. I can say that 2 + 2 is 4 but if you punch me until I say it's not what does it matter? Every rule must be comprehended and accepted it doesn't have to be imposed to make sense. What is the worst scenario possible if everyone do not violete the private property of each other? In the end, it's not necessary that everyone accept it but just enough people to protect themselves against the ones that doesn't understand it.>> <<@r.a.a.6472 says : Yeah he needs to study the Nash Balance consequences>> <<@AntonGardner-o7l says : Limited government ≠ no government>> <<@EconomicCypher says : That’s why I have a libertarian Hoppean Physical removal is based.>> <<@MoehnkeMediaGroup says : I would honestly love to sit and have a conversation with you and discuss and debate libertarian ideas.>> <<@MoehnkeMediaGroup says : I would say the libertarian far-right that's why I consider myself a conservative libertarian because I believe in the fundamental role of government but I believe and see in action how the voluntary assimilation of people under shared ideas are able to be more effective and targeted with their approach at less cost. I do agree and have been cautious of the anarchist ideology that says hey you are responsible for your own safety and Security, add that we don't have a unified culture. When we have to agree to a fundamentalist ideology that allows for the free choice and determination while not allowing for evil to proliferate and to take advantage of the innocent.>> <<@stuartdarkin says : How can EVERYONE agree on the rules? Ever?? That’s surely impossible because we literally live in chaos and try to make order within it. Leadership should be scrutinised as much as possible at all times by all of us, that’s the only chance of a democracy. Not equality of outcome, equality of opportunity, natural hierarchy predicated on kindness as the main aim, kindness ruling overall. If it involves a case of cruel to be kind then kindness AND human affection that isn’t faked should immediately follow. Like Jordan always says, aiming up in all possible domains. The leadership we need in the world today to govern humanity should start with the questions of existence in mind, there IS standard of fairness and it’s called common sense, which is why we’re not all killing each other. And the main aim of humanity should be overall life satisfaction rising, which has a lot of room to grow right now. Peterson is right about the call to adventure, but the boredom and fear of life should be accounted for at every step along the way of said adventure.>> <<@Dermedvegy says : Libertarians nowadays are just social darwinist, tryint to hide their cruelty behind the mask of freedom>> <<@leeshaw6641 says : Im leaving more Friedman on this one.>> <<@MMZKKFM says : There are only Libertarians. We do not see Left or Right because both are 'wrong'.>> <<@carlomalabanan says : That is why I support small government that could decide whatever style of governance they want to be imposed, as opposed to big government where a bigger decision will affect everyone. That is why freedom of choice and markets should not be imposed at every level of governance.>> <<@mikekell920 says : can someone do a squeaky voice cave edit?>> <<@anarchy_burger_ says : We need rules very minimal rules. Ya can’t kill somebody, ya can’t let’s say force yourself on somebody, and ya can’t steal, ya can’t do nothing to kids or dogs, and ya can’t defraud nobody. It’s simplicity that we need. Stay out of our lives other than these simple rules. No more obligatory rules about how your car is not inspected or you’re not wearing a helmet on your Harley. Stop them from becoming invasive and we’re all set.>> <<@celiaescalante says : Sounds vulgar. 🤔>> <<@bumrumblr says : Well yeah if you're looking at something like Hoppean libertarianism. The problem with libertarianism is that none of us agree with eachother.>> <<@arxligion says : To remove order is to force people to seek it out>> <<@lloydgriffin8905 says : The opposite is true, We have chaos and lawlessness right now, we don’t have one moral standard for all. Somehow we are able to do some voodoo magic and a small group of people called the state are granted authority to be above the law and and morality. We also have endless legislation and “law” that assaults natural law on a daily basis.>>
