dumb thread

Bad faith to escape responsibility I see

If it's one of your minors it would literally not hurt you to copy paste at least 3 sources

You really think no one is gonna read 3 articles (I understand the book part but articles, come on)

Furthermore, I added that

• you could explain briefly when and how it became a consensus as well...

You've been up and down the thread replying in paragraphs but here's where the buck stops....

Last resort:

Can we at least get names of professionals who have dedicated 5+ decades to psychology that uphold your claim (made in the initial post)

"you're not gonna read it anyways" is a lazy cop-out... If I'm not reading it someone who'll come across this thread might will, posting an article/book title literally takes 10 seconds but I guess this "exchange" might prove your point (humans are naturally selfish) point better than any expert could.

i don't understand why you make threads when you clearly have your own fully formed opinion on the matter.

is dr peterson what people immediately think of when someone brings up basic evolutionary psychology these days

keep jordan's name out your f***ing mouth.

what the f*** are you mad about gumby

i don't like the jordan peterson disrespect on ktt2

where did i disrespect him?

Lol you’re trying too hard, this is ktt. Just look up articles on psychological egoism. There’s many online publications on the phenomena/theory. I’ll agree it is simply a school of psychology and merely a theory but it holds a ton of validity empirically and I’d personally argue even from a ‘common sense’ perspective.

warning shot

i guess the answer is yes

Doing it knowing a person can't pay it back is f***ed up for sure but a loan in general isn't a bad proposition. It's an option to help finance something rather than having to save up so much. I know guys who started businesses with loans and it worked.

I swear I read it and expected it to be him lol

they're eerily similar. similar enough to be alts

Lmao exactly. I’m a fan of Peterson for his social commentary. You certainly can’t refute his psychological acumen, but nothing I stated was even from the man . 1/3 of my classes at school were psych related and behavioral psych was my bread and butter.

That’s his daddy

might as well do away with loans by that logic, no point for a bank or business to loan money if they aren’t making any

however, i do agree that interests rates can get unfairly high, making it so you are never able to pay down your debt.

of course, various factors come into effect pay like credit and the like, so it boils down to - should people with bad credit still be able to get loans (at a higher interest rate) or should it only be reserved for people with strong proven credit history (unfair to others)

it’s definitely a dilemma

hate to inform 17 yr @op about this

or is he 22

anyway

we're on this earth to get f***ed.

Because there's risk in just giving out money. Financial incentive is the only reason most people would just hand out money they could potentially lose.
If it's a friend I can see low interest or even none but I'm not giving out money to people I don't know without some incentive for the risk.
