Jordan Peterson: Pop Psychology+Pseudo Intellectual

[NoSavingByTheBell]

Jordan Peter speaks to the people who are looking to hear the word.

Some people need to convince themselves they are totally "over" childhood abuse & emotional neglect, "done and dusted", etc. and that they actually were able to do it by a stiff upper lip, and having "agency". For me it is easy to admit I and my sister suffered physical, verbal and emotional abuse as children as well as emotional neglect. It is common knowledge that these things effect you for life -- for some people it incapacitates them completely and they cannot really succeed in life -- for others it effects them for life in their interpersonal/emotional relationships with others, etc. but they can pretty well hold a job and get by, etc. BUT FOR THESE SHALLOW PSEUDO-INTELLECTUAL POP-PSYCHOLOGISTS they condemn those victims as merely being "lazy" or "looking for excuses" or "not having agency". WHO THE FUCK ARE THEY TO JUDGE WHAT OTHERS HAVE SUFFERED? Just because one particular person was beaten cruelly by their parents (or suffered some kind of childhood emotional neglect or abuse) and managed to "succeed" in life DOES NOT MEAN that another person may NOT be traumatized or fall to pieces from even 50% of that abuse and neglect. Peterson tries to argue in broad terms and it is very ignorant to do so. It is a case-by-case basis when assessing a human beings psychiatric and emotional condition.
These pseudo-intellectuals try to impose a fascistic, cruel and unreasonable responsibility onto the victims of abuse & neglect, all under the guise of "altruism" and "believing in people" -- when in fact they are blanketly, sweepingly and immaturely judging those poor victims to be lazy and irresponsible if they cannot just "snap out of it" and "have agency". These pop-psychologists then champion themselves to be enemies of "misanthropes" -- they label anyone a misanthrope who believes that permanent damage can be done in childhood which cannot be overcome.

It's these very same pseudo-intellectuals who know zero about psychobiology, biopsychology, behavioral and psychological determinism, psychopharmacology, etc. and will actually poo-poo those things -- which they do not understand -- as "quackery". It's too complicated and complex for their POP psychology personalities that want quick shallow fixes to life-long cognitive/emotional/psychiatric conditions. They cannot function if they have to admit there is something abnormal about themselves, they cannot accept that idea. It would make them want to jump off a bridge, and they cannot have that. Everything MUST BE SORTED, perfect, DONE & DUSTED, it's preposterous to think otherwise I tell you! You must be a misanthrope!
