>"there's nothing uglier than an old infant. There's nothing good about it. People who don't grow up, don't find the meaning in their life that sustains them through difficult times. And they're certain to encounter difficult times.

There's nothing in it that's good."
he was talking about people that still "enjoy" pop culture after the age of 25.
Jackson Nguyen
The fundamental offence that JP committed was not to agree with this feminist harridan how right she was.
Wyatt Bell
I don't think so. Many so-called SoyBoys have jobs (coding, journalism etc) despite their behavior. I think he's talking about the type of person many people here represent. Aimless, depressed, resentful of women and others in general, friendless, often unemployed or underemployed, attached to a racial / national superiority complex to make up for their own personal failings. I imagine a lot of people here listened to his interview and felt very ashamed of themselves.
Robert Lee
I thought he was talking about women desu. This dude's confusing...
Nicholas Allen
I don't know user do you think it applies to you? i feel i am reasonably succesfull in life yet i fucking hate the tides of shit washing up on our shores and no one will convince me otherwise.
Nolan Ward
It sounds more lack an ad hominem attack against those who refuse to ignore the reality of our world - struggle and fighting is meaning. What he really is saying is that to be anything other than a complacent cog who buys into the illusion of "individualism" is unacceptable and will be met with scorn by those who hold the levers of power. In other words, if what gives you meaning is unacceptable to me, I will call you a big, mad baby because I cannot refute your arguments. tl;dr JP is Space Ghost.
Kevin Rodriguez
I don't give a fuck what this jew sympathizer says, Jordan "don't be proud of your race" Peterson
John Cook
Nope. He is talking about the kind of man no woman wants. The frogman. The manchild. The angry young white male who is living week to week, month to month, his main reason for existing being passing pleasure derived from the internet. Isolated. Bitter. Regretful. Full of hate. The inexperienced ideologue.
Bentley Torres
Pretty much, is he saying that people throughout the middle ages were man children because they were hostile and resentful of others? What about bitter soldiers who have returned to a society that hates them they are man children now? If the women was any good at debating she would have torn that argument apart and it would been over as soon as it started.
Jason Robinson
Just think how many "tfw no gf" threads you see on Sup Forums, including Sup Forums. All the threads full of NEETs or lonely friendless wageearners who just want to die. It's a horror story. And what's worse is that I imagine posting on Sup Forums for extended periods gives you the impression that you and the people you're talking to represent some sizeable demographic. When in reality the vast majority of people you meet just go about their lives, making friends, falling in love, settling into a career and establishing a secure place for themselves in society.

Jason Murphy
No he's not. He's talking about "men" who:
- don't have someone they are at least thinking about marrying by 25 - haven't tried to or thought about having a kid by 30 - don't have any interest in a career and owning property
Christopher Green
I doubt Peterson has ever seen something called a Rustbelt while he is flying about calling others man children, people get crushed by the reality of this world.
Joshua Clark
He is talking about young men of this generation. He is talking about the angry manchildren who have realized that society doesn't exist to accommodate them. He is talking about the bitter loveless losers who post on Sup Forums, /r9k/ etc all day every day.
Ethan Martin
Kind of, but I've resigned myself to a life of lonely wage-slavery, so I'm not bitter or resentful over it.
The real difficulty will be working out what to do with all this money I'm accumulating since I don't have any hobbies or anything to spend it on.
Carter Brown
>socially-useless manchild Ah, but individualism posits that I have no duty to society in that sense. It's almost as if he and certain other Liberalist e-celebs are just engaging in obfuscation and are passing collectivist judgment. In other words, "Your individualist definition of a good life and morality is acceptable as long as it conforms to my collective's definition of proper individualism."
Gavin Carter
i was a quitter. quit uni, quit jobs, quit relationships. had some social anxiety but looking back i should have tried to deal with it instead of accept that it controlled me and suffer its consequences. ran up debt, smoked loads of weed, super lazy at most things, lacked motivation. worked in hospitality and office temp jobs, where i could quit when i wanted to and the work was not challenging to me at all, instead of doing something that tested and pushed me. i guess the reason why was self doubt, avoiding the chance of failing and some anxiety caused by the chance of failing. it's ironic somewhat that trying to avoid failing turned my life into a failure. turned around now though, thankfully. although i needed to start a new life
Asher Hall
>- don't have any interest in a career and owning property
I've basically admitted that I'll never own property. The cost of housing has increased 5x over the last 20 years, and they're made so badly if you get one new that it'll be dust 10 years before you pay it off.
Charles Roberts
please tell us how much you're making user
Carson Rodriguez
>>society doesn't exist to accommodate them. This is a nice attempt at either ignoring or downplaying the changes that have come to the job market for low to average skill workers. Peterson is a hack and his ideology cannot address the simple problem that "useless" people are "useless" because of the twin fuck-yous of automation and outsourcing.
Henry Martinez
My take was that he's saying that women that want to be "dominant" in a relationship don't actually enjoy being dominant. Relationships need to be give and take.
Asher Mitchell
This. Or more specifically those who may have an interest in owning property but refuse to gain the necessary skills and career experience (i.e. working long hours in a competitive environment) to earn the money necessary to buy a home.
Child, the fact that Big Brother isn't showing "meaning" or collectivism in your face at every opportunity needn't mean that you act like a selfish, callous, anti-social idiot. It says a lot about your character that you abandon all ties to your fellows as soon as the government says you can. Astonishing really.
Thomas Myers
This. We always had "useless" people but somehow always had something for them to do.
Levi Phillips
nope. He's referring to betamale left-feminists who, instead of being a man to his woman, act like her child. That's why cucks are so prevalent on the left
Robert Gomez
It's all of the above, her "this it's all I find wrong about men", stance.
Feminism collapse there like race realism does, cause people aren't statistics, specially culturally relevant people.
David Bailey
>(i.e. working long hours in a competitive environment) to earn the money necessary to buy a home. That's weird. My parents worked average jobs and they own two homes.

Thanks for replying. In what sense did you turn it around? What led you to do that? What is your life like now?
Noah Cox
Yeah. There’s nothing good about a person who understands society is functionally broken because the society we live in was created by Europeans and we forced the other races to live by our rules. Thus as the percentage of Europeans decreases so does the understanding and belief in the rules of society.
Wow Peterson you’re so smart.

Jaxon Green
You really would do well Sup Forums to avoid people who want you to think a certain way, even if the dudes viewpoints allign with yours.
Gavin Jones
How funny doesn't get the irony of his statment. Boomers like him are those, who never grew up and pretent everybody is the same, we shouldn't exclude outsiders etc. Peterson is brave enough to scrape at the surface, but isn't brave enough to follow further. He is the child, who pretents we can treat everybody the same way.

You're right! The manly thing will be to buy a shitty house for 1/4 a mill and then buy another in 20 years because it crumbled into nothing!
That's what a man does!
But it'll be hard to pay off that mortgage for a house that doesn't exist because I'll be paying alimony and child support.
I'll live in my car like a big tough manlyman does!

Whether someone wants to be a part of that life is up to them.
Liam Bennett
So why then is Sup Forums full of unemployed autist virgins?
Bentley Ortiz
But then not breed at all because two wages are needed to keep the roof over your head.
But that's OK because some New British have come over and we can buy a dog or cat.

Angry, bitter and despise women. I'm also unemployed, but I'm good looking and swole, so I don't give a fuck what you think. Women still like me, despite the fact I don't like them, all because I'm better looking than most men. How bout dat?
Brayden Cruz
The problem with "growing up" is the subjectivity of it.

Nice spelling mistake.
Ryder Bailey
I feel like a manchild because I don't have a wife or children. I have a career, my own place, and a nice truck and pay my bills on time, but there's a huge gap in my life. Unfortunately the women I've had in my life were all pretty shitty, but I'm not sure if that's not just a reflection on myself. It sucks
Michael Cook

Benjamin Collins
a man must either have kids and be a good and strong father
OR
have no kids but devote himself to mastering self perfection and disipline. by mastering a difficult art or following the path of a monk, clergy etc..
if a man does neither of those things he is most likely a waste and subhuman

Pursue a career inside of a broken dysfunctional system so that you can keep the system afloat. Without white men, the system collapses.

Fair enough. I'm 42 with a wife I've been with (Japanese, met her there) for 19 years. If I had to find someone on Tinder, I'd be disillusioned too. That's everyone's fault, though. Such an unnatural way to meet people.

Joseph Cook
Subjectivity only exists because we can't fathom of any way to measure "growing up", beauty or even manliness. Even if the greatest of us COULD measure it, the teeming masses of stupid assholes would refute your criteria because it makes them self-conscious. Still, we instinctively know "growing up", manliness and beauty when we see it.
Elijah Davis
if i had stayed where i was i would have just drifted through life achieving nothing but more debt and a mediocre life. i went abroad to work where i started with nothing and built a life. i made a commitment and i saw it through, which was a pretty big deal to me. i had responsibility and done the job properly and to the best of my abilities and succeeded. i change my former behaviour so i was taking care of myself. i learned new skills and put them into practice. i saved money. i moved back to the uk and started working for myself, so i don't depend on anybody. now i'm financially comfortable, i could choose not to work again and be alright. however i have no social life or personal relationships with anybody, so i need to fix that.
Adrian White
Did you have a protective father figure to teach you how to try, fall, and try again?

Juan Hughes
You're exactly the kind of person he was talking about. Have you ever slept with a woman?
Brody Morris

Owen Phillips
A realistic,objective point vs. your typical cuck boomer-esq response,why should everything you do have to revolve around pleasing women? Do you not understand the situation happening in Europe/West?
Jaxson Harris
Peterson is highly critical of the meat grinder that is modern Western consumerism.
When he talks about 'growing up' he is talking about personal development, about internal stoicism; acknowledging "yeah, the world is a shitty place that forces me into a shitty lifestyle, but I'm not going to cope with it by being a whingy bitch".
Kevin Morris
He’s a gatekeeper of the system and depends on the system to sustain his livelihood.
The system is broken by any reasonable measure. If young white men reject it it will eventually collapse. Thus he needs to convert young white men to believe in his multicultural hogwash to sustain his source of income.
Camden Brown
lol @ blaming the current generations of men. This is all the fault of women's hypergamous behaviour and voting habbits.
Daily reminder that Jordan Peterson ended up dating a ROASTIE, that rejected him through her most prime years, and only decided to date him when she was hitting the wall:
50+ years ago the average man with a trade job was seen as highly desirable to the average woman. But now because we have given women everything, and they never have to fear being homeless or penniless they want more, so this rules out the average man who could provide the basics.
Now, not only do they want you to make alot of money, they want you to be better looking, higher social status etc. Women's demands are becoming more and more insane by the day, and its only going to get worse. Soon the average man will wonder why he is paying taxes into a system that is completely rigged against him, where they get nothing and women and immigrants reap all the benefits.
WOMEN are the problem, Mr Boggerson, not men.

Stick with the plan dammit.

no. i had a father who was supportive in my decisions to quit, who said i should do what i think i should do. i was never told to suck it up and get on with it. i never had to do that when i could just quit. i know that it was my responsibility but i know that now. at the time i was lost and didn't know how to cope or what to do.
