Ben Shapiro & Jordan Peterson - Q&A Segment

I've recently taken your understand myself personality test and scored very low in all aspects of agreeableness I have the cognitive ability to emulate these aspects and do so for the benefit of my kids and community is emulation or enough or do I have to actually take the steps in showing and honestly showing agreeableness can you fake it badly well if emulation is motivated by let's call it a noble aim the understanding that reciprocity is necessary there is evidence showing that disagreeable people do quite a bit better if they go out of their way to do things for other people too they make that a practice and the thing is is if if you're an introvert you have to become a conscious extrovert right if you're if you're so in if you're disagreeable you have to become consciously agreeable you can do it and emulation is the first step to incorporating it I would say so if you're doing it to manipulate people well that's a different story Yeah right man I mean there's there's a ton of people here that donated on super chat just to say hi and thank you so hello to everybody this quick one for Ben I think we've already hit this but any chance of a future discussion with Milo no okay fair enough yeah how could people have something to say okay here's an interesting one and Jordan during the break mentioned that we should be doing a show on the future at some point do you think like me that abortion and artificial intelligence will eliminate humanity as we know it I'm watching this new Phil ok dick thing on Hulu now so I'm very sorry sir come on you can do it you're a sci-fi guy yes well we could talk about AI am yeah AI is going to transform what human beings are dramatically we're going to have to decide in what manner we want to be transformed and we should bloody well hope and pray that the people who are leading the technological revolution are careful and ethical people but hasn't that ship sailed I mean I feel like we know already that that's not how it's gonna be we know there's so many problems related to the diversity memo and the algorithms and all that already from the tech company sure that's more people working on these oh she should be you should be terrified of this transhumanism it's like what do we want to turn into we need a vision of the future which is why we need to talk about the future yeah what I think one of the things we need to do collectively is to develop it's like okay I believe that the human race can do anything it wants in the next thirty years you know Gates was taught Bill Gates was talking the other day about eradicating malaria he's really set on eradicating the five major transmissible diseases that could happen yeah it's like we could eliminate most of our problems it's like well we should concentrate on the future that we would like to have and try to bring it into being and then maybe we can get artificial intelligence to serve that instead of serving whatever inchoate and pathological set of principles that it's serving now which we will suffer for yeah well let's cross our fingers what is the likelihood that the SJW post-modern left collapse will happen soon basically um I think that it's more likely than people think it is I'll put it that way I think that right now the sjw's think that they're on top and they think that they are ascendant and I think the growing popularity of people who are not that especially among young people I mean my entire audience is young people legitimately my entire audience is people who are under the age of 40 and probably half my own it's under the age of 25 and I would probably imagine it's the same for you Jordan you know I think that the there's a whole group of young people who are just looking at this stuff and innately saying I'm bored with it there's nothing here and so I think there's a good shot that the identity politics is actually an older person's game yeah all right you know we're only going to do two more what cat ago categorize all of these and maybe and next time you guys are on hits we'll hit some of these but we'll do two more cuz I think they're good they sort of hit right where we're going here I bought can answer this but it's directed to you Jordan any follow up on your call earlier this month for students to stand up and leave the classroom whenever the teacher mentions equity diversity and justice and I know this is something you've talked about a bit about how you deal with a college professor yeah this was junior high in high school gets to talk to their parents about while I was trying to provide people with easy markers to note that their children are being indoctrinated not educated I said well if they're talked about equity diversity inclusivity white privilege or gender it's time to leave the Klauss and I said now that didn't cause nearly as much trouble that video as I thought it might yeah that's a pretty dangerous idea to be telling that to a 13-14 yes yes but it's also dangerous not to tell them that and I mean it's particularly germane in Ontario where the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario has explicitly developed a social justice curriculum we that name whose explicit purpose is to transform kids from kindergarten to grade eight into social justice activists they've even bent the selection of literature to promote that so they're perverting art for ideologies and that's the official policy the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario if they're gonna do that play that game then for me to say look here's five phrases that that are pretty decently diagnostic you can be pretty certain that if these topics come up in your class that you're now into indoctrination territory yeah I think people should walk what's the risk though of saying that to a kid that may come home and the parents may not even understand these issues enough to defend risk risk everywhere man it's it's it's the risk of going along with it there's a risk of standing up against it and I believe and that's why I've been doing what I've been doing is that I believe that the risk of stating that this is dangerous and should stop is way less than the risk of going along with it I'm with ya all right so this is gonna be this can be the last one for now we will pick this up another point and we also discussed during the break that maybe we can do some kind of live thing together with this whole crew of people that we're talking about we'll see who we can get to do that probably in LA but we'll see this one I'm sure I've asked you some form of this in our other interviews before but I think it's it's the one that sort of hands this back to the audience for both of you for some time now I've wanted to start doing something to protect liberty and Western values etc but I have no idea where to start what's the most useful thing I can do to start as an average person I mean I think that my answer this is sort of the same answers to what you should just do in life generally find something that you're good at find something you like to do and find something that's useful and where are those three things can conflate well were those three things overlap that's where you're gonna be the happiest that's where you gonna feel you're making a difference because if you only have two of those three things then you're butting your head against a brick wall if you like to do something and you think that it's gonna influence other people but you suck at it it's not gonna work for you so try to openly identify your own skillset find what it is that you're good at and then figure how do I use this skill set something I'm good at and enjoy doing how do I use that for a purpose that is that is useful and it sounds like this you already have your purpose it's just a question of what can you do that that actually helps effectuate that purpose so without knowing your skill set I don't know but if I knew your skill set then I could help define what you could do with that from point A to point B yeah so I suspect you probably yeah but what about the courage but I would just add a little bit to that it's like there are some things that you'll see that will bother you some of those are your problems that's why they bother you like there's lots of things in the world that are happening that don't bother you it's like they're not your problems things that bother you for some reason are your problems find something that bothers you that you could fix that you could start fixing and start fixing it that's that's it and and you know you should do it confidently doing a domain where you're competent do it in a domain where you're interested but there are things that you'll see around you that you think could be set right that you could set right it's like go for it you'll get good at it and then you'll set bigger and bigger things right that's and that's that's where to start start small you won't end small I mean I can tell you in the most intimate way as you guys are now in my house in my studio that we built that's funded by the people that are watching this I just had an idea and I started talking about it I started a YouTube channel that literally everyone watching this can do you start I mean look at the three of us we all started putting stuff out there going is this gonna work none of us were greenlit I've never been greenlit or had any respect from the industry all together listen guys it was a pleasure we're at you what do you do before show you can take a nap maybe I'm definitely going to take a nap yeah you don't take naps you take naps yeah I have two kids and one just turned four yes I take naps it's been a pleasure guys let some ways to expand this to the wider group you have some live events and everything else and we'll keep this conversation going it's because of Lexus where did the 50 grand come to just drop accord he gave it to me for long legal date Oh can't believe I just slipped up like that Oh Oh God and here's the greatest thing I'll never be tried or convicted for the murders of Kurt Cobain for elder checks never but I told Alan I mean my friend
