009. Jordan Peterson on the Radical Left Part 3

Jordan Peterson, “It’s self manifest many times in the last Hundred years, the rise of this Group Identity Associated.‭ ‬Quasi Marxist viewpoint with this additional Toxic‭ M‬ixture and Paradoxical Mixture of post-modernism, the post modernists are Famous for being Skeptical of Meta Narratives. That means that they’re skeptical about the idea that Uniting large Narratives are Valid and it’s a Huge Problem because the first question is How Big does the Narrative have to be before it’s a meta narrative?‭ I‬s the narrative that Holds your Family Together, it’s a Falsehood? Is the narrative that Holds your Community Together a Falsehood? How big does it have to be before it becomes a Falsehood? And so it’s a very Vague Claim, and it’s a Very Dangerous Claim in my estimation, because I believe that the Psychological Research is clear on this. What we Have, we Are, Cognitive Abilities are nested inside stories we’re fundamentally narrative creatures.‭ ‬That’s how our Brains are organized, and so to Deny the validity of Large Scale Narratives is to deny the validity of the Manner in which we organize our Psyches.‭ ‬And that’s Unbelievably Destabilising for People.” A Lot of Truth there.
