    What’s wrong with JP? Lol, I mean I appreciate he’s not afraid to speak his mind and give a wake up call to everyone

    if you can’t figure it out on your own, it’s not worth explaining since you probably agree with his f***ed up views

    blonded

    his early psychology stuff is unironically good and helpful but the moment he touches anything to do with philosophy or politics he goes off the f***ing deep end

    This is really helpful to know, thank you

    I personally haven't read his self help stuff but a lot of the criticisms I've heard about have mentioned that the evangelical conservatism stuff is kinda the underlying message, but I guess that could be easy to miss if you aren't religious or didn't grow up in a religious household.

    Though none of the things I mentioned aren't really new to JP's overall ideology. They've been present ever since he and the rest of the "intellectual dark web" came to prominence, so I think in some aspects all of that stuff serves as the base for his writing and preps his readers to be open to his more extreme views.

    I don't really think there's any danger in reading his self help stuff and taking away some things that help you but the dangerous part comes when his readers do take that next step and start engaging with his stuff that is actually harmful to people.

    Thank you for breaking this down in such detail

    I don't think my friend is gonna go beyond that book so I think he should be good

    F*** Andrew tate

    But when we gonna start calling Twitch personalities grifters

    Idk if that's the right word and I know I'm not saying anything original here

    But like that Hasan dude being a millionaire and still taking donations off children just don't sit right with me personally. I'm not saying if u left wing u can't make money but how u gonna call Tate a scammer for selling a course while u a millionaire selling emoji access and s*** to children

    It's 2022 but whole concept still so strange to me

    Regardless of whether he's a grifter how is it a scam, nobody is under the impression that they're getting something out of it besides avoiding ads

    Hasan even used to say how to bypass ads with VPN or adblock before twitch made him stop

    It's definitely not comparable to Andrew Tate's MLM

    It's immoral imo .

    Genuine question how is the Tate thing mlm from what I've seen he sell courses and there's just referral codes some people have but there's no need to recruit people. Whole referral / affiliate thing seems like s pretty common marketing strategy these days

    Im not defending it just I've read that it's only certain people who even have a referral code so it doesn't seem to fit the MLM criteria because not everyone can even recruit people. Just the whole dumbass buy my course to get rich s*** with an affiliate program

    But I might be missing something if u know more

    The scam is that the course has nothing you can't find for free on youtube basically lol

    It's not affiliate marketing either bc that doesn't come with a signup fee or tries to lure you in on a promise to get rich quick

    How is it not MLM? You pay to get in, and then you get paid by getting other people to join, the guy at the top still makes money off every sale. It's pretty much textbook MLM tbh lol

    Most people make most of their money that they do make bc of the course on the commission and not because of whatever they learn from it. You're basically saying because there's a product it's not a MLM, every MLM comes with a product.

    From his website:

    "This is a community where you will have access to stock a***ysis, options plays, crypto a***ysis, DeFi, E-commerce, Copywriting, Freelancing, Flipping, Real Estate, Financial planning, Affiliate Marketing, Business management and more.

    Every professor is verified by me personally. Each one of them is making anywhere from 10k to 500k a month in their select field.

    I chose fields that ANYONE ANYWHERE can do NOW to get rich.

    No bullshit, no fluff, just hard hitting lessons in making money.

    Full resources, full lesson plans, everything you need to get rich and it all starts with you making your first money TODAY."

    Bro this is just a classic get rich quick MLM It's so obvious lmao

    There's no product being sold and the courses they sell don't rely on u getting other people to join

    MLM the basis of it is u gotta get other people to join to make money. But the average member can't even recruit people from what I understand.

    It doesn't mean im saying it not basically s money making scam just it not MLM

    Synopsis

    Don't view what as morally wrong

    the person I was replying to called peterson transphobic and talked about evangelical conservatism

    but I've never heard him judge a trans person on their choice, he's just stated the fact that everyone is born either as a male or female

    as far as evangelical conservatism goes all I've heard JP do is a***yze biblical figures and situations in a psychological way which is his specialty as a psychiatrist on the interactions between humans and their creator....mostly the old testament

    all of the above^ I dont find morally wrong. Quite the opposite actually, he's making important distinctions, for example, people who preach about pride rights but called people gay as an insult before the cancel movement are an offense to em and psychologists/psychiatrists that never studied religion which is the biggest source of philosophy and inner pain/freedom are uneducated.

    That's just my opinion tho, but, I'll be damned if I let ppl tell me who to listen to or not without investigating
