The Israeli Claim

• Jordan Peterson is sympathetic to the Israeli claim.
• The founder of Zionism observed a Dawning wave of vicious anti-Semitism in Europe.
• The West in the guise of the U.N decided that the establishment of a Jewish state was going to be all things considered something like uh a universal good.
• The establishment of that state has been incredibly problematic.
• The consequences of the establishment of a Jewish state are that there's a flourishing nation in that area now that is doing quite well economically and on the governance side.

The Palestinian Situation

• The Palestinian situation is still unaddressed and the catastrophes that are associated with that still playing themselves out.
• One thing that could be done is not to exclude the Palestinians linguistically or practically.
• It's pretty damn convenient for people who are anti-Israel in the most fundamental sense to keep the Palestinian conflict raging for their own particular narrow self-interest.
• The bloody state department has insisted for the last 70 years that there's no possibility whatsoever of moving even incrementally towards peace in the Middle East without a full solution to the Palestinian problem.
• Jordan Peterson would much rather see the Muslims and the Jews and the Christians armed together on the monotheistic front.

The Idea Network

• An idea network is a set of interconnected ideas that have an animating essence, reflected in the use of terms such as Zeitgeist.
• Styles of ideas move and shift over time, and people in different decades may not recognize their own appearance.
• People are imitating each other and striving for consensus, and are possessed by webs of ideas that happen to be old or new.
• The idea network is rooted in a corrupt Enlightenment and an envious spirit of Cain-like vengefulness that acts like a conspiracy.
• The idea network is a subset of dialectical materialism, and there are correlations between ideas that hang together as sets.

Politically Correct Ideas

• The first question was whether there was a coherent set of politically correct ideas that could be identified.
• The idea network is rooted in a corrupt Enlightenment and beyond that in an envious spirit of Cain-like vengefulness that acts like a conspiracy.
• The notion that there is a web of ideas that are part of this dialectical materialism that you described or that would be a subset of it that's clearly the case.
• The two sets of ideas that hung together were a kind of inclusive, compassionate liberalism and something more like an authoritarian political correctness.
• The biggest predictor of being possessed by the idea network was low verbal intelligence, followed by being female, having a feminine temperament, and having ever taken a course that was overtly propagandistic on the politically correct side.

Conspiracy

• People are imitating each other and striving for consensus, and are possessed by webs of ideas that happen to be old or new.
• The idea network is rooted in a corrupt Enlightenment and beyond that in an envious spirit of Cain-like vengefulness that acts like a conspiracy.
• The notion that there is a web of ideas that are part of this dialectical materialism that you described or that would be a subset of it that's clearly the case.

• The biggest predictor of being possessed by the idea network was low verbal intelligence, followed by being female, having a feminine temperament, and having ever taken a course that was overtly propagandistic on the politically correct side.

Predictors

• The biggest predictor of being possessed by the idea network was low verbal intelligence.
• The next predictor was being female.
• The final major predictor was having ever taken a course that was overtly propagandistic on the politically correct side.

The Idea System

• The idea system is a set of beliefs and ideas that work together to promote a certain end.
• It can operate in a distributed manner, with individuals promoting the idea system in their own way.
• The idea system is a false religion, with its own set of idols and beliefs.
• The idea system is a fundamental element of the entire idea system.
• The idea system is a complex and multifaceted concept that requires a nuanced understanding.

Dialectical Materialism

• Dialectical materialism is a political ideology that seeks to use political ideas for the purpose of bringing change.
• It is a reaction to the status quo and the belief that the status quo is actively harming society.
• The exploitation of conflict for a direction of travel is a key aspect of dialectical materialism.
• The ends justify the means is a belief held by those who engage in dialectical materialism.
• The problem with dialectical materialism is that it is often used to justify extreme and violent actions.

Woke Political Activism

• Woke political activism is a reaction to the power hegemony of the state and the belief that the ends justify the means.
• It is often used to justify extreme and violent actions.
• The vision of equality that woke political activism seeks is often based on a false understanding of the concept.
• The opposition to the status quo is often just as absurd as the status quo itself.
• The problem with woke political activism is that it is often used to justify extreme and violent actions.

The Absurdity of Opposing the Status Quo

• The opposition to the status quo is often just as absurd as the status quo itself.
• The unbridled corporatism displayed by big pharmaceutical companies is an example of this absurdity.
• The problem with opposing the status quo is that it often leads to extreme and violent actions.
• The solution to this problem is to understand that the problem is not the proton or the neutron, but both of them.
• If individuals understand that they are part of an atom and that their actions are connected to the actions of others, they may be less likely to approach the world's problems through a subject-object lens.

• Peterson and Nawaz agree that the solution to this problem is a long-term one and requires understanding the root cause of the problem.

The Predator and Its Representations

• The essence of what's predatory is the fact that human beings are subject to the ravages of predation, particularly true of infants and part of our mammalian and spiritual heritage is the fact that we can be prey animals and always have to contend with that.
• The image of Satan symbolically is put forward as the most apt representative of the predator.
• The concept of predator or predation as such is not the only predator and it's not Predator as such, it's a specific predator, a snake or a bear or a wolf.
• A dragon is a meta-predator, it's a cat, a snake, a fire, a predatory bird, all entangled into one image.
• The greatest dragon isn't merely a dragon, it's something metaphysical.
