2017 Personality 06: Jean Piaget & Constructivism 

m_ p Dude! Same, I don't even study anything close to psychology.

Yup, one of my classes has a twenty minute break in the middle of it. I whip my phone out and "go to school" while in school.

Hahaha yes! I just came home from my credited lectures to watch Peterson lectures while I eat lunch. Totally hear you, m_p, Hardus Jonker, and BoyRobot2.

m_ p I

Jordan peterson has made me want to study psychology at university , keep up the studying bucko's .

1:15:00 the hockey comment

It's something like that... ;) A common phrase I notice he says.

Omg.. I haven't heard it yet but I am excited. Sounds like lots of people I know in Canada..

@@Gottaculat Well I mean, good luck with that, man! But that's what's so cool about it, roughly speaking. So...

"It's like, NO... IT'S NOT."

Hahahahahahahahahaha love it

Its cute

I am a parent that has to start using that on myself. It's funny in a sad way. But Im the cause of it being this way right now, so I have to do whatever it takes to get my damn room clean again!😂 It definitely won't stop me from using it own my kids, too. It is a great line!

And when you threaten someone: "Im gonna punch you in the bottom of your axiomatic structures"

Thx to acknowledged it in such a beautiful manners. Thx to articulated what I think. Ty. This man is unbelievable. He should ware a cape.

Great Man 🤘

I totally agree with you...

jerry greene Are you implying that he didn’t?

@@colliemon Jerry Greene is a troll. Goes under various names. Guess he s writing a thesis about "the phenomenon of JBP" or sthg, and is too lazy (or dumb or unwillig) to do the work himself. Mayb its a thesis about 'the fans of JBP'. Anyway, don't waste your breath with him. If you don't mind a well-meant advice, i.e. 🙋‍♀️

And its fucking free.

I'm eternally grateful that he puts his lectures online and that the university allows him to do so. My field of study had nothing whatsoever to do with this subject material, so I never would have gotten exposed to it otherwise. And I doubt I would have gotten exposed to Prof. Peterson had he not stood up to the marxists and gotten himself on the news. Just a fantastically serendipitous series of events that led me here and I am very grateful, if you're reading this Professor.

damn.....there isn't substance to any of these videos....its common sense hoopla....I understand English...I understand what he's saying....its nothing special...its nothing to go to school for....its nothing to pay college tuition for....its common sense...longwinded...uncoordinated....repetitive...common sense....for 2 hours....all videos....all playlists.... so yeah I understand English.....And at the end of the video i ask myself...wtf did i Learn? I remind myself....not a god damn thing. I'm 24....Does this mean i'm some super genius that I can honestly belittle his teaching as 8th grader material MAYBE ...or are these kids seriously that stupid?

Logic Monkey Maybe you think you understand what he’s saying? How does your actual life stack up to the things he prioritises? Where are you in the spousal search and the dominance hierarchy? Have you really discovered your shadow and come to terms with it, etc? How are your relationships with family, friends, work colleagues? And do you make your bed when you get up in the morning? And yes, for teenagers and young adults, and even beyond, there are a million and one distracting enticements trying to lead the young away from their human purpose for being, in our faces every day through shallow pop culture that makes it close to impossible for the young to see through to what really matters and what they should be pursuing with their precious time. It’s not that they’re stupid by any means, it’s that they’re simply being misled at every turn. This is why Jordan Peterson’s lectures are a godsend. He’s waking people up.

Yes I fully understand what he's saying...especially when every lecture uses the EXACT same metephors the Exact same (interpretations) the exact same pretty much everything. I've also watched a ton of Jordan Peterson material and intereveiws as well. He's saying the same thing over and over. I guess I have no use for it but I also now realize a really old saying i heard about him... He's a stupid mans smart man. He uses big buzzwords in longwinded intellectually astute bringing up some mythology to pull some interpretation out of his ass and wows the crowd to say in the span of 2 hours interweaving this and that and in the end..............Its either common sense or just him talking about more mythology......anything of substance (the common sense) could be summarized in 5 minutes. He's a good entertainer. I mean it... Next time you listen to his video...take notes on every Actual nugget of information and when the video is over you tell me if there was a DAMN thing that you didn't know by 8th grade. The practical stuff not historic names ect. I have been....want to see my notes? They look like I was taking notes on an 8th grade teacher....If not 6th.

I’ve done four seperate University units that have presented Piaget and his theories and not a single one of them has even come close to this level of understanding and teaching. Makes you wonder about how little of an understanding our educators really have

@@Daniel_McDougall Exactly. Great comment.

Its really saying something when JBP calls you a genius so I cant wait to try and understand Piaget, i have been struggling with Niche for over a year and I still hav not finished with beyond good and evil. It is humbling to think your a smart guy becouse your friends respect and look at you as an intellectual only to see how mouth breather I am in comparison to some of these minds.

@@Recovery12Life dude you have no idea! You don't even know how to spell Nietzsche! 😄

@@IMAHMS you tell us

Best comment ever.

And how fortunate we are to be able to understand english also ! Native english speakers often don't realise how fortunate they are to be able to listen and understand what Dr Peterson is talking about... but as a non-native speaker (I'm french) who has learned english just a few years ago, it's mind boggling to have access to this kind of knowledges... I've studied psychology for 4 years in University and I've never had anything similar to these kinda lectures.... It's really unique !

Still learning 👍

Sure

@@lorisnovelli9915 You made my day Loris.

I like how a moron with a Communist emblem as one's picture is dissing Peterson.

If the subjective doesn't exist, then why do you Commies always say that money is just a piece of paper? Obviously the value behind money is subjective, acting as a representation of something that is objective. If money is just objective, then why would you want to rob people of all their hard earned cash so badly? LOL

JazzPianoObsessed: I wish I would have discovered Peterson years ago when I was a hopelessly resentful, drunken nihilist roaming around in my mothers basement reading Nietzsche, listening to death metal, and going deeper and deeper into utter insanity.

mebe84: Lots of pain, suffering, and critical situations forced me to either perish and die or try and realize that I didn't know shit about life and that I needed to humble myself and learn. Connection to other people and life in general is vital. I can't just isolate and isolate or else I become alienated from life. I also silence my thoughts from time to time and be more aware of the present as well as my feelings, emotions, and intuitions. I also have to find a certain degree of trust or faith in life, in the very nature of existence, a sort of faith in which I know that my actions (and inactions) matter, they affect things, and therefore affect my life. I can't escape into some form of nihilism or utopianism forever, because that's just not possible. So that means confronting what I don't like, what I'm afraid of, etc. None of this btw has to be grand. I find that working with small things and making small steps are the best way of going about it. Focus on more details (the dishes need to be cleaned, or maybe I should feed my cat, or maybe I should take a walk, or what have you) and less on the grand narrative that we always seem to be trying to force ourselves and life into. Also, understanding "couplings" as I call them, also known as dualities or opposites. Male and female go hand in hand, play and work go hand in hand, responsibility and freedom go hand in hand. Action and rest go hand in hand. Also, try and stay away from the great spiritual poisons like resentment, pity, arrogance, false humility, vengeance, etc. and then realize at the same time that you WILL feel these things and that there is no reason to punish yourself for feeling them. Simple awareness can go a long way.

William Koscielniak, that sounds a little bit like where I have been for the last 4 years, except for the 'being in my mother's basement' part, I live in a small room rented from a private landlord. (that 'mother's basement' reference made me actually laugh out loud, I don't know why, it's not funny really , I guess it just feels 'very familiar', like, someone actually understands where I am). I would consider myself a 'Nihilist', I know, I know, it is counter productive, though in a sense I am still pretty productive in society. I have 'always; been a solitude seeker, ever since I was a little boy, this will not change, as I have stopped fighting who I am. I have yet to read Nietzsche and other philosophers. After having been in a religious organisation that prohibited reading the philosophers, I am just getting started. I think the 4 years or questioning everything has put me in the right place to be open minded about what they have to say. Oh and I am past the 'everything is meaningless so I may as well not keep on living' stage, that ship has sailed. It is a joy to listen to Peterson's fearless walks into searching journeys into human nature.

Ha, I thought the same thing. What a Jordan Peterson way to react.

That is funny :9 Don't think it is doing the phenomena justice though... ;)

Well, JP adds "That's seems to be a..." before it. He is so precise in his speech! Practice what he preach! :D Have a good one, buddy! ;)

I'll keep saying "shit" ... do you think Prof. Peterson would feel better if he started cursing?

@@maxheadrom3088 considering the state he’s in these days I really doubt it would make him feel any worse

It's no small thing!

Yea ikr, I mean its no bloody joke man!

so do I, roughly speaking

Well that depends on what you mean by axiomatic structure

You said it! It's a hell of a thing!

johnkan Piaget was the first to observe children..

johnkan yeah watching them leading up to this one, he’s speaking about 1.5 times as quick as normal. Mind boggling how he comes up with what he talks about on the fly and just riffs for hours

Wait till you hear him talk about Jung...😅

His favorite is definitely Nietzsche

@@privateinvestigator8607 no, it's jung

Ludmila Marešová lmaaaaaooooooo

What happend there?

😂

Thanks, hard to sit through his aimless jabbering sometimes

@@youknowwhoiam4432 aimless jabbering

I know exactly what you mean...some of the stuff he says seems obvious and profound at the same time. Its remarkable.

I think one of the reasons why many professors make things more complicated than they have to be is to show students that they're above the students' understanding or something like that. It's a hierarchy game in some sense and they want to be seen as "the professor who knows complicated things that we don't understand".

@@adibahmed10 if you knew someone was willing to be in massive debt just to hear what you have to say. Id probably do it too XD

You put that very well, you spoke for me then 👌

@@adibahmed10 I've been a teacher for years in several schools. I believe this is accurate.

sometimes its cold. wtf is that.

Yes, we realize he's special. Most of us choose to wear hats -- Canada is cold as hell, inside and outside.

Josh MacDonald I made no criticism of headwear! I'm a hat man myself. The Prof has sported some fine Fedoras in the past too. Ask him about some of those early TV appearances.

I thank them for paying thousands so I can watch this.

These are going to be like the Feynman Lectures on Physics. And we get to see them as they come out. What a time to be alive.

I said out loud, "God, he is hilarious and odd. I love this guy."

Yeah, I don't understand what was happening there.

@@5ilver42 Me neither.

"Thats just... Sheer spite. As far as I'm concerned"

"it's no joke man!" :D

Is that Runescape tuna?

Chily lmao it sure is. Bizarre avatar but I like it

I feel so for your professors. How could they possibly measure up to JP?

Jordan's 'intensity' doesn't seem to be as close as previous lectures for sure. I personally enjoyed his ruthlessness in "Advertising Atheism" with Steve Paikin. I love the vigour of his older videos. All the professors I've had only get applauses on the last day of class. Jordan is the first professor that I've heard applauses for after regular lectures. Hoping he's taking care of the body.

Yeah you are right, the intensity and vigour was not really there in the more recent ones. To be fair though, the one I was referring to was from now over 7 years ago. People change all the time, and I guess you cannot expect a person to be the same for their whole life. His genius is still the same - I think it is just a little bit sad, since it is a tad less jaw-dropping than before, but still highly informative. Thanks for your comment!

"I did not get that same emotion from his more recent lectures" I know right hes so fresh in these. I cant believe the views arent raking up. This is also why I admire Peterson so much. Even before this whole fiasco he was uploading stuff for those of us who found tremendous value from it.

I am kind of sad that I always seem to discover interesting stuff in general, always after the fact, when it already has been around for years and years. Whether it is music I now like (bands), interesting people, new ideas or whatever. But I guess you cannot keep an eye out for something you were not looking for before, so you kinda have to stumble upon it almost accidentally and then get great value out of it nonetheless. It is really remarkable in a way how that happens.

He might not be as energetic, but the content is still as good, I think. It seems like he has more students this year, because he doesn't adress them as much. That might be because they are not as willing to speak when there's a camera behind them and they know how many people are watching the lectures on RU-vid. If I was Peterson, I would be a bit more nervous when I knew how many people were watching the lectures. He might be stressed, but there are also other possible explanations.

ironman btw

Stop playing Runescape and clean your room! ... Actually a less tedious exercise.

@@ssholum not unless you bot.... ;)

Skooomaa

I was wondering why no one commented on that!

Mark Walters His representational structure of the world is not matching reality. So he is experiencing dissolution.

haha

Yes, it's a chaotic anomaly in his order structure, which presents as an obstacle to his goal-directed behaviour, which gives rise to negative emotion. hahaha

lol you just made my day thnxs

oh man I was laughing so hard :D

Hilarious :D

agentssith His lectures are structured, otherwise his slides wouldn’t fit. They are perhaps not scripted, although I suspect he has thought about the truth of each statement.

I see you like Mr Peterson, love the channel man. Watch all of your videos. Even those board repair ones lol

Didn't expect you here, not at all surprised tho.

In other words "write that down." That's something I've still not made a habit of but, I keep hearing in some form or another that always boils down to "write that down."

Me too, let me know if your get them

He really should. I'd definitely buy his novels.

Peter Rulon-Miller I just wish peterson was better at debating so those two could criticize each other equally in real time and actually sort out their logical errors. Sam outright dismisses the 'ought from is' dilemma, and peterson ironically relies on post-structuralist critiques of truth to maintain that pragmatic usefulness is the same thing as truth, simply because that is the best we can do. Neither of them outline a rigorous absolute moral truth, but instead settle for alleged objective observations which they then use to draw an 'ought' from an 'is.' There are pragmatic reasons to develop a moral system. These more systems are useful; they are not actually true. That's not what truth is.
