Foundational Conceptions Matter

|
| How do you know what exists or not? | |
| Right? | |
| Oh my gosh. | |
| It depends on what you mean by valid. | |
| So far, so good. | |
| They are each valid and being called gods. | |
| So there are multiple gods that exist. | |
| It depends on what you mean by valid. | |
| So far, so good. | |
| So, so far, Jordan Peterson has absolutely no problem with this young woman saying, That everyone has different views on God. | |
| Therefore, these different views of God all exist as gods in the external universe. | |
| And it's like, what the living hell is going on here? | |
| I feel like I'm being flushed down a intergalactic wolf lodge to a toilet into a madhouse. | |
| I got to tell you, like, oh my God. | |
| What do you say? | |
| Oh my gosh, that's wild. | |
| Depends on what you mean by valid, because I would say that some foundational conceptions don't play out when they're implemented. | |
| Okay, some foundational conceptions. | |
| Okay. | |
| Some foundational conceptions don't play out when they're implemented. | |
| What does it mean to implement a foundational conception? | |
| Some foundation. | |
| Oh, don't play out when they're implemented. | |
| I'm sorry, don't be the laugh. | |
| There's not an argument. | |
| Because I would say that some foundational conceptions don't play out when they're implemented. | |
| Does he mean communism? | |
| What does he mean? | |
| Some foundations don't play out when they're implemented. | |
| Jordan Peterson is not going to debate me. | |
| Come on, man. | |
| So if you put the wrong thing at the foundation, you end up in hell, for example. | |
| That's what happens in totalitarian states. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| So he's talking about communism, fascism. | |
| Okay. | |
| So they're not all equal. | |
| Like, all foundational principles are not equal, even though they might be equally foundation. | |
| Right. | |
| Yes. | |
| Everything you call a foundation to a house is not as good as everything else. | |
| If you make water as the foundation of your house or fish, you're not going to do as well as if you use, say, concrete. | |
| So, yes, I'm with him on that. | |
| Right. | |
| So what makes one kind of foundational tenet, like, better than another one? | |
| That's an excellent question. | |

Aim For Comprehensibility

|
|
| Iterability? | |
| I mean, please. | |
| God almighty. | |
| Can we give ideas that are useful to the people, right? | |
| I mean, I've worked very hard over the last 40 years to try and develop and communicate complex arguments that are useful to your life. | |
| Just complex arguments that are useful to your life. | |
| The non-aggression principle, self-ownership, free will, peaceful parenting, you name it, right? | |
| Definition of love. | |
| I'm like, iterability. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Okay, so if y 'all can just take your foundational concepts and implement them in the world according to iterability, if you could just get that shit done, man. | |
| It's like, if your ideas aren't important enough to make comprehensible to the general population, it's bullshit. | |
| It's bullshit. | |
| I don't... | |
| I don't... | |
| We're facing a massive moral crisis in the world while your foundational concepts need to be implemented according to their iterability. | |
| Got that? | |
| It's like, how does this help? | |
| I aim for sort of a bottom IQ 90, right? | |
| and I'm not calling you guys IQ90, of course, right? | |
| But I aim in my communication, like if you're writing instructions for... | |
| I think it's grade 6 now you have to write for. | |
| So I sort of bottom out. | |
| I aim to have comprehensible communications to people at about IQ 90 and above. | |
| Below that, you're into the, what did you have? | |
| If you didn't have breakfast yesterday morning, what would your experience be? | |
| Well, I did have breakfast. | |
| Like, below, right? | |
| Where you could probably have any kind of abstract discussion. | |
| But 90 plus is pretty good. | |
| That's the majority of the world. | |
| I don't know man | |
