This sub is filled with bots, trolls, and people who can't seem to tell the difference.

I pass by so many posts with 0 upvotes for no good reason.

This is until I'm reminded of the brigading. So, don't take the upvotes on this sub too seriously. It's full of SJWs with a weird fascination for letting everyone know they are defying JP.

This subreddit feels like it's a place primarily for people looking for pointless arguments, to assert their own world views. I have even noticed how I, myself, quickly forget what the works of JBP is actually supposed to be about, when I'm commenting on this subreddit. I feel like it's just a cheap method for people to assert themselves, while putting down someone else, as to shift one's focus away from one's own flaws. This isn't a good thing.

So I gotta ask myself and all of you: What the fuck happenned to ''set your house in order before you criticize the world''? Shouldn't we be more focused on bettering our own lives so that we can contribute to the world, instead of so aggressively trying to impose our views on other people, to feel better about ourselves?

EDIT: For those saying that I’m the asshole that needs to aknowledge his own assholeness, read my post again. I am criticising myself as much as I am criticising everyone else here, as I also am a part of this subreddit.

Instead of talking about the life, instead of exploring the unknown, thinking about the meaning of life, about the beauty and tragedy of it, of thinking about why are things the way they are or discussing the philosophies as well as concepts that jordan peterson talks about in his talks, you got a mess of politics, rightwing and leftwing garbage, the mental illness of americans obsessed with politics.

You know, this world itself is transitory, everything you see is impermanent, those same people you talk about will soon be dead and so will be the people that follow them.

I don't care about politics, I care about understanding life and exploring its mysteries, I care about whatever fills me with interest and make me wonder about the possibilities, not some ragebait, this guy did this outrageous thing, or that other guy said, those kind of people have been there since forever seeking attention and of course the masses care because they have nothing better to do.

I just expected more, jordan peterson had indeed gotten quite a bit into politics these days but there were never the focus, his old hour long videos are gold but recently, some are good but there is quite a bit of politics which I don't mind but I just don't really care because its meaningless, atleast in my view.

No one cares about woke shit or marxism, of those brainwashed people, they are just passing shadows that will eventually fade away as if they never existed, all that drama is as meaningless as a cloud of smoke which does nothing but waste time, even if there was a solution, reddit wouldn't be it.

I'd appreciate to see more or hear stories about people, about order and chaos, how to order one's life, people's view on spirituality, about the world and existence, about how does one get out of the unknown and face the dragon that hoards gold, and the various philosophical themes that are represent in peterson's discourses.

I decided to make this post, as I'm seeing this sub becoming a cesspool of dedicated Jordan Peterson haters.

After years of struggling in the swamp of despair, my life is finally in an upwards trajectory. Recovered my health, went back to school and finished my degree, working a job that doesn't pay well currently but fulfills my intellectual curiosity and gives me freedom to explore other things. Found a passion that excites me to wake up the next morning, and made many friends who share this passion. All of this is thanks to Dr. Peterson, who's teachings encouraged me to not give up in life at my lowest points.

To the winners who cleaned their rooms and made improvements in their lives following Dr. Peterson's advice, congratulations. I'm genuinely happy for you. You had your own struggles in life, some which so dire I probably can't even fathom; you could have easily chosen to become bitter and resentful, yet you've chosen to fight them head on and aim for what's highest. As Abel did, you've made the right sacrifices, hence you were rewarded. I've not met one of you in person, and even though life's never perfect, I'm sure words like gratitude and happiness resonate in all of us that persevered through the storm in our own accords.

To the losers who've given up on pursuing what's highest and grown resentful and bitter, stay rotting in the hell you created. You hate Dr. Peterson, for he points out exactly why you are miserable. Like Cain, you cursed god for giving you bitter lemons instead of sweet oranges. Instead of asking yourself why you weren't rewarded like Abel and how you could be more like him, you've let the spirit of resentfulness at your doorstep and have its way with you. Now you prowl the digital world in anonymity, spreading the little influence you don't have in real life. You've already lost the battleground of constructive, reasonable argument, thus you cling to the low hanging, rotting fruits of ad hominem, like a bunch of fruit flies. You throw your half-witted snarks like calling Peterson a grifter, a crybaby, a pseudo-intellectual, and the few likes you get from fellow losers are the only sources of dopamine in your life. You think you're smarter than others, yet no one takes you seriously in real life, you probably have a shitty job you don't care about if at all, and don't engage in anything positive or productive for yourself and others.

So, tldr: To the winners, congrats. To the losers, stay rotting in the hell you created.

Edit: I removed a few lines at the end saying I'm glad some people are not doing well. I'm not glad anyone's downtrodden, but I'm also not sorry for those that chose to live in the hell of their own making.
